Dithionitronium hexafloroarsenate is the inorganic compound with the formula [SN
2]AsF
6. It is the hexafluoroarsenate (AsF−
6) salt of S=N=S+. The cation is of interest as the sulfur analogue of nitronium (NO+
2). Hexafloroarsenate is a weakly coordinating anion. According to X-ray crystallography, S=N=S+ is linear with S-N distances of 146 picometers.[1]
Synthesis and reactions
Dithionitronium hexafluoroarsenate is prepared from thiazyl chloride using silver hexafluoroarsenate.[2] The hexachloroantimonate salt can be prepared by treating thiazyl chloride with sulfur in the presence of antimony pentachloride according to this idealized equation:
- SNCl + S + SbCl
5 → [NS
2]SbCl
6
The dithionitronium cation reacts with nitriles to give dithiadiazolium salts:[3]
- [NS
2]+
+ RCN → [RCN
2S
2]+
Addition to alkynes gives dithiazolium salts:
- [NS
2]+
+ R
2C
2 → [(RC)
2NS
2]+
