Syntheses, characterization and crystal structures of the boron–antimony adducts BX₃·Sb(SiMe₃)₃ (X = Cl, Br or I)

Abstract

The crystal structures of the 1∶1 Lewis acid–base adducts BX₃·Sb(SiMe₃)₃ (X = Cl, Br or I) have been determined and they are the first reported for such boron–antimony adducts.
