OtherCpds =Antimony triiodide is the
chemical compound with the formula SbI3. This ruby-red solid is the only characterized "binary"iodide of antimony, i.e. the sole compound isolated with the formula SbxIy. Like many iodides of the heavier main group elements, its structure depends on the phase. Gaseous SbI3 is a molecular, pyramidal species as anticipated byVSEPR theory . In the solid state, however, the Sb center is surrounded by anoctahedron of six iodide ligands, three of which are closer and three more distant. [cite journal
