The complexation of Bi{III) with chloride ion has been studied in non-aqueous medium. The state and behaviour of BielS and its higher complexes have been examined in organic solvents. This attempt is merely an addition to the study of Bi{III) complexes with potassium diphenyldiseleno­phosphate where Bi{I1I) forms complexes of definate (l:S) composition.
