'Classical' and 'Abnormal' Bonding in Tin (II) N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes

Reaction of Sn(OTf)2 (OTf-≤OSO2CF3-) with one and two equivalents of the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazol-2-ylidene (IPr) yielded the complexes [Sn(IPr)(OTf)2] (1) and [Sn(IPr)(aIPr)(OTf)][OTf] (2), respectively. Both species were characterised by single crystal X...
