Abstract
Abstract The compound [SnMe 2 (phen)L 2 ] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) was prepared by reaction of a mixture of 1-phenyl-5-thione-1,2,3,4-tetraz phen and SnMe 2 O in 2:1:1 mole ratio in refluxing methanol. The structure of the complex was determined by X-ray diffraction. The unit cell contains two independent molecules. In one, the tin atom is coordinated to the methyl groups, to a bidentate phen and to two N(4)-bound L − , one of which also forms an additional Sn···S secondary bond. In the other independent molecule, the metal atom is coordinated to the methyl groups, to a bidentate phen and to one N - andone S -bound L − which also forms an additional Sn···N secondary bond. Thus the two independent molecules are formally linkage isomers. The IR spectrum was recorded and a multinuclear NMR study was carried out.
