Abstract: | Polysulfonylamines. CXIII. Coordination Compounds Derived from Trimethyltin(IV) Di(fluorosulfonyl)amide: Ionic Complexes with Monodentate Uncharged Ligands Me3SnN(SO2F)2 reacts with two equivalents of the appropriate ligands to give the coordination compounds Me3Sn(L)2]⊕(FSO2)2N?, where L = OSMe2 (complex 7 , previously known), N,N′-dimethylethyleneurea (complex 8 ), OPPh3 or OP(NMe2)3. Low-temperature X-ray diffraction measurements revealed 7 (triclinic, space group P 1) and 8 (monoclinic, P21/c) to be ionic in nature; similar structures may be surmised for the other two compounds. The (FSO2)2N? anion, ordered in 7 and disordered over two sites in 8 , adopts the usually observed conformation with pseudo-C2 symmetry. The tin atoms have slightly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometries, in which the apical positions are occupied by the oxygen atoms of the L ligands Sn–O bond lengths for 7 : 224.9(4) and 228.1(4) pm, for 8 : 227.5(2) and 228.6(2) pm]. |
