A pseudosymmetric triclinic modification of triphenyltin isopropylxanthate

All three independent molecules in the triclinic modification of (O-isoprop yl dithiocarbonato-S)triphenyltin, [Sn(C6H5)(3)(C4H7OS2)], show tetrahedral coordination at their Sn atoms. Bond dimensions involving the Sn atoms are similar to those found in the monoclinic modification of the same compound . Two of the independent molecules are related by a pseudotranslation allow ing a stacking fault that reduces the intensities of h + k odd reflections.
