Some reductions of sulphur–nitrogen–chloride compounds to give tetrasulphur tetranitride
Abstract
Tetrasulphur tetranitride is conveniently prepared by the reduction of cyclotetrathiatriazenium chloride or trichlorocyclotrithiatriazene with iron. Other new routes to tetrasulphur tetranitride, bis(tetrasulphur tetranitride)tin(IV) chloride, tetrathiotetraimide, and cyclopentathiapentazenium tetrachloroferrate(III) are also discussed.
