Abstract
X-Ray structure analysis of (Me)2(C5H5NO)2SnCl2 has shown that the compound is a monomeric octahedral trans-complex with a crystallographic centre of symmetry. The crystals are triclinic, space group P with a= 7·25, b= 7·24, c= 8·75 Å, α= 102·6, β= 87·5, γ= 117·2°, and Z= 1. Full-matrix least-squares refinement was carried out to a conventional R of 9·2% for 1007 independent reflexions. Bond lengths are Sn–Cl, 2·58(1); Sn–O, 2·25(2); Sn–CH3, 2·22(2); and N–O, 1·37(2)Å. The angle Sn–O–N is 117(1)° and the dihedral angle between the plane of the pyridine ring and the plane of the atoms Sn–O–N is 83°.Keywords
