Heptasulfur imide is the inorganic compound with the formula S
7NH. It is a pale yellow solid that is, like elemental sulfur, highly soluble in carbon disulfide. The compound, which is only of academic interest, is representative of a family of sulfur imides (or azacyclosulfanes or thiacycloazanes) S
x(NH)
y.
Synthesis and structure
It is prepared by reaction of disulfur dichloride with ammonia,[2] although other methods have been developed.[3] Together with S
7NH, the reaction also produces three isomers (1,3-S
6(NH)
2, 1,4-S
6(NH)
2 and 1,5-S
6(NH)
2) of S
6(NH)
2 (diazacyclooctasulfanes) and two isomers (1,3,5-S
5(NH)
3 and 1,3,6-S
5(NH)
3) of S
5(NH)
3 (triazacyclooctasulfanes).[4]
Azacyclooctasulfane is an analogue of octasulfur (cyclooctasulfane) S
8, with one –S– replaced by –NH–. The S–NH–S center is almost planar,[5] suggesting that the amine is nonbasic.
