Abstract
[GRAPHICS] We found that the C=O . . . Sn distance in RCOSSnR'(3) was shorter than the C=O . . . Ge distance in RCOSGeR'(3) and theoretically confirmed that the orbital interactions between the nonbonding orbitals on the carbonyl oxygen (N-O) and the sigma*(SnS) orbitals were important in regard to the shortne ss.
