Peculiarities of the Reactions of Tri(metatolyl)antimony and Tri(ortho-tolyl)antimony with 2-Nitrobenzaldoxime. The Molecular Structures of Bis(2- nitrobenzaldoximato)tri(meta-tolyl)antimony, µ2-Oxobis[(2-nitrobenzaldoximato)tri(meta-tolyl)antimony] and Bis(2-nitrobenzaldoximato)tri(ortho-tolyl)antimony

Bis (2-nitrobenzaldoximato)tri( meta -tolyl)antimony ( 1 ), µ 2 -oxo- bis [(2-nitrobenzaldoximato)-tri( meta -tolyl)antimony] ( 2 ) and bis (2-nitrobenzaldoximato)tri( ortho -tolyl)antimony ( 3 ) have been obtained by the reactions of tri( meta -tolyl)antimony and tri( ortho -tolyl)antimony with 2-nitrobenzaldoxime in the presence of an oxidizing agent (hydrogen peroxide or tert -butyl hydroperoxide). Compounds 1–3 have been characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis.
