Antimonide

Antimonides (sometimes called stibnides) are compounds of antimony with more electropositive elements. The antimonide ion is Sb.

Some antimonides are semiconductors, e.g. those of the boron group. Many antimonides are flammable or decomposed by oxygen when heated since the antimonide ion is a reducing agent.
