Untitled[edit]

The diagram shown in the picture shows both In and Sb atoms as four-coordinate. Does this material also have an eight-coordinate allotrope, possibly at high temperatures and/or pressures? Such an allotrope would be isoelectronic with beta-tin. Seems like it should exist, but has it been isolated yet? Stonemason89 (talk) 16:41, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Naming this compound[edit]

The naming of this compound at least seems rather strange. The non-metal antimony formaly carries a negative charge and therefor reseaves the suffix "ide": antimonide. But, being a negative charges non-metal, the first part of its latin name should get the suffix, resulting in "stibide". Who is able to check the IUPAC-rules on this subject? t.vanschaik, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.118.128.65 (talk) 12:09, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
