Sb. Teo et al., A COMPLEX SALT FORMED IN REACTIONS OF NBUSNCL3 WITH -(2-METHYL-2,3-DIHYDROBENZOTHIAZOL-2-YL)-2-KETONES, Journal of organometallic chemistry, 454(1-2), 1993, pp. 67-71
The reaction of nBuSnCl3 With 142-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzothiazol-2-yl)
-2-ketones (ketone = propanone, methyl phenyl ketone) involves cleavag
e of the exocyclic ketonyl group to give the complex salt [(C8H8NS)+]2
[(C4H9Sn(OH)C]3)2]2-. 2[C8H7NS]. An X-ray diffraction study of the com
plex has revealed the first example of true hydrogen bonding involving
an Sn-Cl bond.
