catena-Poly[[trimethyltin(IV)]-μ-phenylseleninato-κ2O:O′]

Abstract

In the title polymeric coordination compound, [Sn(CH3)3(C6H5O2Se)]n, the SnIV atom has a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry, with two O atoms of two symmetry-related bridging phenylseleninate anions in axial positions and three methyl groups in equatorial positions. In the crystal, the complex exhibits a chain structure parallel to the b axis.
