M. Weidenbruch et al., A STANNAETHENE WITH A PLANAR ENVIRONMENT OF THE TRICOORDINATED TIN AND CARBON-ATOMS, Journal of organometallic chemistry, 530(1-2), 1997, pp. 255-257
Addition of the diarylstannylene R ''Sn-2 (R '' = 2-'Bu-4,5,6-Me3C6H)
to the cryptodiborylcarbene (Me3Si)(2)C(B'Bu)(2)C furnishes the stanna
ethene (Me3Si)(2)C(B'Bu)(2)C=SnR ''(2) (10). The X-ray structure analy
sis of 10 reveals a strictly planar environment of the tricoordinated
tin and carbon atoms and a slight twisting of the Sn=C double bond.
