Dichloridobis(5,7-dichloroquinolin-8-olato-κ2N,O)tin(IV)
Abstract
The SnIV atom in the title compound, [Sn(C9H4Cl2NO)2Cl2], is chelated by the substituted quinolin-8-olate anions in a distorted octahedral geometry. The N-donor atoms are in a cis alignment as are the Cl atoms; the O atoms are trans to each other.
