Redetermination of tris­(N,N-diethyl­dithio­carbamato)anti­mony(III)

The title compound, [Sb(C(5)H(10)NS(2))(3)], was synthesized from Sb(2)O(3), diethyl­amine, carbon dis­ulfide, hydro­chloric acid and sodium hydroxide. The structure has been published previously but H atoms were not included in the model [Raston & White (1976 ▶). Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. p. 791]. The current determination has significantly higher precision than the original work. The complex has three ligands. The Sb atom is coordinated by three bidentate diethyl­dithio­carbamate groups, two in an almost planar fashion and the third perpendicular to that plane with a dihedral angle of 86.429 (13)°. One ethyl group is disordered over two positions of equal occupancy.
