Crystal and molecular structure of tris (2,6-dichlorophenyl) thiophosphate

Abstract

The crystal structure of tris(2,6-dichlorophenyl)thiophosphate was determined by single crystal X-ray diffractometry. The structure consists of isolated molecules and each unit cell contains 8 molecules of the compound. The crystal system is monoclinic with a space group of C2/c. The P atom is bonded to three O atoms and one S atom in a distorted tetrahedron environment.
