Abstract
The molecular structure of [Li(thf)3 . Sn(SiMe3)(3)], prepared by a new, on e-pot synthesis in 44% yield, has been determined by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study using synchrotron radiation and a CCD detector. The Li+( thf)(3) and Sn-(SiMe3)(3) moieties are joined by a Li-Sn bond, 2.865(5) Ang strom in length. [Li(thf)(3). Sn(SiMe3)(3)] is isomorphous with its germani um analogue.
