The crystal and molecular structure of the intermediate in the reaction between triphenylphosphine and tetrasulphur tetranitride

Abstract

In crystalline form, Ph₃PS₃N₄, the isolabel intermediate of the reaction of S₄N₄ and triphenylphosphine, exists as a triphenylphosphine group bonded through nitrogen to an S₃N₃ ring, five members of which are planar.
