Thioarsenate, ammonium sodium

Copper Thioarsenates.—Cupric Orthothioarsenate, Cu3(AsS4)2, is formed as a dark brown precipitate when sodium orthothioarsenate is added to a solution of a cupric salt.2 The reaction, however, is complex, sulphides of copper and arsenic also being formed.3 A similar precipitate is formed when ammonium hydrosulphide or hydrogen sulphide is added to a solution of arsenic acid and a copper salt,4 and the proportion of sulphide and thio-salt in the precipitate varies with the concentration of the reactants. Copper hydroxide reacts with alkali thioarsenates to form copper sulphide and alkali arsenate, but some copper orthothioarsenate is formed and remains in solution in excess of alkali thioarsenate.5... 

The double salt, Na3(NH4)3(AsS4)2, is obtained w hen alcohol is added to a mixture of the two thioarsenates in molecular proportions, or when a solution containing ammonium chloride and sodium orthothioarsenate is allowed to evaporate it crystallises as pale yellow hexagonal prisms. A corresponding sodium-potassium salt is obtained by evaporation of a solution of the mixed orthothioarsenates.1...
