Reaction of the cesium antimonide complex [Cs(18C6)2][SbH2] (1, 18C6 = 18-crown-6 ether) with triamidoamine actinide separated ion pairs [An(TrenTIPS)(L)][BPh4] (TrenTIPS {N(CH2CH2NSiiPr3)3}3–; An/L Th/DME (2Th); U/THF (2U)) affords triactinide undeca-antimontriide Zintl clusters [{An(TrenTIPS)}3(μ3-Sb11)] (An Th (3Th), U (3U)) by dehydrocoupling. Clusters 3Th and 3U provide two new examples Sb113– trianion are unprecedented molecular being coordinated to anything since all previous reports featured isolated trianions in quadruple formulations noncoordinating cations. Quantum chemical calculations describe dominant ionic An–Sb interactions 3U, though data suggest that latter exhibits slightly more covalent linkages than former. Complexes have been characterized single crystal X-ray diffraction, NMR, IR, UV/vis/NIR spectroscopies, elemental analysis, quantum calculations.
