Antimony trisulfide (Sb2S3) is found in nature as the crystalline mineral stibnite and the amorphous red mineral (actually a mineraloid)[3] metastibnite.[4] It is manufactured for use in safety matches, military ammunition, explosives and fireworks. It also is used in the production of ruby-colored glass and in plastics as a flame retardant.[5] Historically the stibnite form was used as a grey pigment in paintings produced in the 16th century.[6] In 1817, the dye and fabric chemist, John Mercer discovered the non-stoichiometric compound Antimony Orange (approximate formula Sb2S3·Sb2O3), the first good orange pigment available for cotton fabric printing.[7]
Antimony trisulfide was also used as the image sensitive photoconductor in vidicon camera tubes. It is a semiconductor with a direct band gap of 1.8–2.5 eV.[citation needed] With suitable doping, p and n type materials can be produced.[8]

Preparation and reactions
Sb2S3 can be prepared from the elements at temperature 500–900 °C:[5]
- 2 Sb + 3 S → Sb2S3
Sb2S3 is precipitated when H2S is passed through an acidified solution of Sb(III).[9] This reaction has been used as a gravimetric method for determining antimony, bubbling H2S through a solution of Sb(III) compound in hot HCl deposits an orange form of Sb2S3 which turns black under the reaction conditions.[10]
Sb2S3 is readily oxidised, reacting vigorously with oxidising agents.[5] It burns in air with a blue flame. It reacts with incandescence with cadmium, magnesium and zinc chlorates. Mixtures of Sb2S3 and chlorates may explode.[11]
In the extraction of antimony from antimony ores the alkaline sulfide process is employed where Sb2S3 reacts to form thioantimonate(III) salts (also called thioantimonite):[12]
- 3 Na2S + Sb2S3 → 2 Na3SbS3
A number of salts containing different thioantimonate(III) ions can be prepared from Sb2S3. These include:[13]
- [SbS3]3−, [SbS2]−, [Sb2S5]4−, [Sb4S9]6−, [Sb4S7]2− and [Sb8S17]10−
Schlippe's salt, Na3SbS4·9H2O, a thioantimonate(V) salt is formed when Sb2S3 is boiled with sulfur and sodium hydroxide. The reaction can be represented as:[9]
- Sb2S3 + 3 S2− + 2 S → 2 [SbS4]3−
Structure
The structure of the black needle-like form of Sb2S3, stibnite, consists of linked ribbons in which antimony atoms are in two different coordination environments, trigonal pyramidal and square pyramidal.[9] Similar ribbons occur in Bi2S3 and Sb2Se3.[14] The red form, metastibnite, is amorphous. Recent work suggests that there are a number of closely related temperature dependent structures of stibnite which have been termed stibnite (I) the high temperature form, identified previously, stibnite (II) and stibnite (III).[15] Other paper shows that the actual coordination polyhedra of antimony are in fact SbS7, with (3+4) coordination at the M1 site and (5+2) at the M2 site.[clarification needed] These coordinations consider the presence of secondary bonds. Some of the secondary bonds impart cohesion and are connected with packing.[16]
