Abstract
The distorted octahedral geometry about the SnIV atom in the title compound, [Sn(C6H5)2(C14H19N4S)Cl], is defined by the N,N,S-tridentate Schiff base ligand, two mutually trans ipso-C atoms of the Sn-bound phenyl groups, and the Cl atom which is trans to the azo N atom. The two five-membered chelate rings and pyridyl ring are almost coplanar with the dihedral angle between the outer five-membered chelate and pyridine rings being 5.39 (8)°. Centrosymmetric dimers feature in the crystal packing mediated by N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds, leading to eight-membered {⋯HNCS}2 synthons. The dimeric aggregates are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by C—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯π interactions, as well as π–π interactions occurring between centrosymmetrically related pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.6322 (13) Å].
