Description
Summary:The title compound, [Sn4(C8H17)8O2(C6H5N2O2)4], is a tetranuclear SnIV complex, built up by inversion symmetry around the central Sn2O2 ring. The SnIV coordination geometries are distorted SnO3C2 trigonal-bipyramidal and distorted SnO4C2 octahedral. The three-coordinate μ3-oxido bridging O atom in the Sn2O2 ring is attached to three Sn atoms. All non-H atoms, with the exception of the Sn-bonded octyl groups, lie approximately on a non-crystallographic mirror plane.
