Abstract
The polyhedron around tin in the title compound is a distorted trapezo idal bipyramid with the two C(phenyl) atoms in axial positions. The tr apezoidal plane is formed by the two 2-pyridinethiolato residues which act as bidentate ligands with cis Sn-S and cis Sn-N bonds. Sn-N coord ination is indicated by short intramolecular Sn-N distances [Sn-N(1) = 2.636 (4), Sn-N(2) = 2.698 (4) angstrom]. The axial C atoms are shift ed towards the half-sphere occupied by two N atoms resulting in a C-Sn -C angle of 125.5 (1)-degrees. No short intermolecular interactions ar e observed.
