Abstract—Triphenylbismuth bis(pentachlorobenzoate) has been synthesized by the reaction between triphe-
nylbismuth and pentachlorobenzoic acid in the presence of hydrogen peroxide in ether. According to X-ray dif-
fraction data, the bismuth atoms in two crystallographically independent molecules (A and B) have a distorted
trigonal bipyramidal coordination. The OBiO and CBiC angles between axial and equatorial substituents are
171.7(3), 173.6(3), and 105.3(4)–146.9(4). The Bi–O and Bi–C bond lengths are 2.291(8)–2.315(8) and
2.197(11)–2.204(10) Å, respectively. The BiO(=C) distances are 2.843(10)–2.857(11) Å.
