O. Gueye et al., A NEW SYNTHETIC ROUTE FOR MONO-TIN(IV) AND POLY-TIN(IV) OXALATE ADDUCTS - IR AND MOSSBAUER STUDY, Polyhedron, 12(10), 1993, pp. 1245-1249
A new synthetic route to prepare mono- and poly-tin(IV) complexes with
the oxalate anion is reported. It behaves either as a mono- or bichel
ating terminal ligand, or as a bi- or tetra-unidentate bridging ligand
, according to the experimental conditions. Possible structures for th
ese complexes are proposed on the basis of IR and Mossbauer spectrosco
pic data.
