Abstract
Cs3Sb7 and Cs4Sb2 were synthesized from the elements and their crystal stru ctures were determined on the basis of single crystal x-ray data. Cs3Sb7 cr ystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P2(1)/c (a = 1605.7(1) pm, b = 1571.1(1) pm, c = 2793.9(2) pm, beta = 96.300(2)degrees, Z = 16) a nd contains anions Sb-7(3-). In the structure of Cs4Sb2 (orthorhombic, spac e group Pnma, a = 1598.5(3) pm, b = 631.9(2) pm, c = 1099.5(2) pm, Z = 4) d umbbells Sb-2(4-) are present.
