Abstract
Tetraphenylphosphonium pentachlorostannate contains trigonal-bipyramid al [SnCl5](-) ions. It is isotypic with PPh(4)[Sn(CH3)Cl-4]; however, the published space group of the latter is corrected from P2 to P2/n. In the hydrate the [SnCl5(H2O)](-) ions have a distorted octahedral co nfiguration. The packing principle is the same for both compounds and corresponds to the known arrangement in tetraphenylphosphonium compoun ds with PPh(4)(+) ions stacked in columns in the c direction.
