Two polymorphs of tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) tetrathioantimonate(V)

Details of the structures of two polymorphs of tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) tetrathioantimonate(V), [Co(C₂H₈N₂)₃][SbS₄], are reported. The first polymorph crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pna2₁, whereas the second polymorph belongs to the tetragonal space group P4₂bc. Both structures contain octahedral [Co(en)₃]³⁺ cations (en is ethylenediamine) and tetrahedral [SbS₄]³⁻ anions, which are interconnected via various N-H∙∙∙S hydrogen bonds to form two different types of three-dimensional network.
