ABSTRACT
The compound S4N4 has been shown to react with the Lewis acids
SbC1S' SbFS and AsFSto produce the previously unreported cyclotetra,-. 2' I
thiazyl dication, S4N4f, in the form of the salts S4N4(SbC16)2~ S4N4(SbF6)2'
, S4N4(AsF6)2'~S02' and S4 N4(Sbl14
)(SbF6)· A re.action sequenci~for the pre
p'aration of S4N4(SbC16)2 has been sugges.ted and the infrared and'Raman_\..
spectra for, each of the salts is reported as w'ell as the crystal struc,.
,tures of the' S4N4,(SbC16)2 and S4N4.(:bl14)(Sb~6) salts',
A brief investigation ~f th~ r~action of S4N4 with. the Lewis
