Abstract: The tri(o-chlorobenzyl)tin ester of 2-indolylcarboxylic acid has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and 1H NMR. The crystal structure has been determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction. The crystal belongs to triclinic with space group P1, a=1.020 0(16) nm, b=1.125 9(18) nm, c=1.321(2) nm, α=83.10(2)°, β=67.597(18)°, γ=84.83(2)°, Z=2, V=1.391(4) nm3, Dx=1.565 Mg·m-3, μ=1.235 mm-1, F(000)=656, R=0.049 2, wR=0.131 4. In this compound, the central tin atom is rendered four-coordinated in a tetrahedral structure. The resulting structure is a monomer containing Sn-O bond length of 0.205 4(4) nm. CCDC: 236286. |
