(Methanol-κO)(2-methyl-3,5-dinitrobenzoato-κO)triphenyltin(IV)

Abstract

In the title complex, [Sn(C6H5)3(C8H5N2O6)(CH3OH)], the Sn(IV) ion is coordinated in a slightly distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry by three phenyl ligands in the equatorial plane and by a 2-methyl-3,5-dinitro­benzene­carboxyl­ato ligand and a methanol ligand at the apical sites. In the crystal, complex mol­ecules are linked via inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [100].
