Two independent but very similar molecules comprise the asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Sn(CH3)2(C18H12N2O3)]. Each Sn atom is coordinated by two methyl groups and two O atoms and an N atom from the dinegative tridentate ligand. The resultant C2NO2 donor set defines a coordination geometry i...

| Summary: | Two independent but very similar molecules comprise the asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Sn(CH3)2(C18H12N2O3)]. Each Sn atom is coordinated by two methyl groups and two O atoms and an N atom from the dinegative tridentate ligand. The resultant C2NO2 donor set defines a coordination geometry intermediate between square-pyramidal and trigonal-pyramidal, with a small tendency towards the former. Zigzag chains running along the a axis mediated by O—H...N hydrogen bonding characterize the crystal packing. These are connected into layers in the ab plane by a combination of C—H...N and π–π [centroid–centroid distances = 3.658 (2) and 3.6740 (18) Å] interactions. The layers are connected along the c axis via C—H...O interactions. |
