Description
Summary:The title compound, isobutyltin(IV) dichloride hydroxide N,N-dimethylformamide solvate {[iBuSnCl2(OH)(DMF)]2}, an accidental side product from the reaction of isobutyltin(IV) trichloride with moisture in N,N-dimethylformamide, exhibits structural features similar to those of the corresponding hydrates of monoorganotin(IV) dihalide hydroxides characterized by a central four-membered rhombic Sn-O ring and tin atoms with a distorted octahedral coordination.
