Geometrical Preferences in Bis(dithiocarbamato)tin(IV) Complexes: X-Ray Structure of cis-I2Sn[S2CN(C2H5)2]2 and Theoretical Investigations

The geometry of cis-I2Sn[S2CN(C2H5)2]2 is confirmed by single crystal X-ray analysis; the spectral data of the complex resemble those of the bromo complex and PM3 calculations on octahedral complexes of the type XYSn[S2CN(C2H5)2]2 reveal that their geometrical preferences depend upon the electron availability on the monodentate ligands X or Y.
