Abstract
The configuration about the Sn centre in the title compound, [Sn(CH3)( 3)(C10H13N2O2)], is intermediate between tetrahedral and trigonal bipy ramidal. A weak intramolecular Sn ... O(carbonyl) interaction of 3.070 (3) Angstrom gives rise to an intramolecular six-membered chelate ring , formed through the carbonyl O atom; this is a unique feature of tetr aorganotin compounds. The title compound was prepared by consecutive r eaction of 3-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)pyridine with n-butyllithium an d trimethyltin chloride.
