D. Boegeat et al., The first mixed-valence fluorotin alkoxides: New sol-gel precursors of fluorine-doped tin oxide materials, INORG CHEM, 39(17), 2000, pp. 3924
New mixed-valence fluorotin alkoxides; (SnSnF2)-Sn-II-F-IV(OR)(4) 1 (R = te
tt-butyl, tert-amyl) were synthesized and characterized by multinuclear NMR
and Mossbauer spectroscopies. The two tin sites are bridged via three mu(2
)(OR) groups. Adducts 1 yielded nanocrystalline conductive F-doped SnO2 pow
ders by the sol-gel process.
