The following compounds and ions have disphenoidal geometry: Sulfur tetrafluoride is the premier example of a molecule with the disphenoidal molecular geometry (see image at upper right). The four atoms in motion act as a lever about the central atom for example, the four fluorine atoms of sulfur tetrafluoride rotate around the sulfur atom. Thus, the 19F NMR spectrum of SF 4 (like that of PF 5) consists of single resonance near room temperature. This exchange of positions results in similar time-averaged environments for the two types of ligands. The ideal angle between the axial ligands and the equatorial ligands is 90° whereas the ideal angle between the two equatorial ligands themselves is 120°.ĭisphenoidal molecules, like trigonal bipyramidal ones, are subject to Berry pseudorotation in which the axial ligands move to equatorial positions and vice versa. Typically the bond distance to the axial ligands is longer than to the equatorial ligands.
The equatorial pair of ligands is situated in a plane orthogonal to the axis of the axial pair. The axial pair lie along a common bond axis so that are related by a bond angle of 180°. Ĭompounds with disphenoidal (see-saw) geometry have two types of ligands: axial and equatorial. Repulsion by bonding pairs at 120° is much smaller and less important.
An equatorial lone pair is repelled by only two bonding pairs at 90°, whereas a hypothetical axial lone pair would be repelled by three bonding pairs at 90° which would make it stable. This is true because the lone pair occupies more space near the central atom (A) than does a bonding pair of electrons. An atom bonded to 5 other atoms (and no lone pairs) forms a trigonal bipyramid with two axial and three equatorial positions, but in the seesaw geometry one of the atoms is replaced by a lone pair of electrons, which is always in an equatorial position. The seesaw geometry occurs when a molecule has a steric number of 5, with the central atom being bonded to 4 other atoms and 1 lone pair (AX 4E 1 in AXE notation). Most commonly, four bonds to a central atom result in tetrahedral or, less commonly, square planar geometry. The name "seesaw" comes from the observation that it looks like a playground seesaw.
