Abstract

Reports in the literature that the compounds MeSb(O)(OH)2 and Me2Sb(O)OH are present in marine and fresh-waters need to be re-examined. The results of several synthetic strategies suggest that these methylantimony(V) compounds are either environmentally inaccessible or polymeric in nature. Pure samples of various di- and trimethylated antimony(V) species were prepared and found to undergo molecular rearrangement reactions when subjected to hydride generation procedures typically used for aquatic speciation.
