Sulfur complexes are always full of surprises : Reaction of BiCl 3 with a polysulfide solution in acetonitrile furnishes the complex anion [Bi 2 S 24 ] 4− in which the Bi atoms are coupled by an S 6 2−ligand. In each case two bidentate S 7 2−ligands complete the square‐pyramidal coordination of the two Bi atoms. Neither a complex with coupled S 6 2−ligands nor one with bidentate S 7 2−ligands was previously known.
