Abstract
Single crystals of the compounds [(i-PrSn) 12O 14(OH) 6]Cl 2 · L with L = 3H 2O (I), 2DMF (II) and 4H 2O · 4DMPU (III) have been isolated and investigated by an X-ray diffraction study. Common to all is the cage cation [(i-PrSn) 12O 14(OH) 6] 2+ with a “football” like tin-oxygen framework from which the organic moieties produced. Square-pyramidally coordinated tin atoms and six-membered tin-oxygen rings with half-chair conformation are the most remarkable primary and secondary building units of this ion. The cations, anions and solvent molecules are connected by hydrogen bonds to chains in I, to a three-dimensional network in II and to isolated structure units in III.
