6,6-Diphenyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-1,3,4,8-tetrathia-6-stannazulene-2-thione and 6,6'-spirobi[6,7-dihydro-5H-1,3,4,8-tetrathia-6-stannazulene]-2,2'-dithione

Abstract: The title compounds, [Sn(C₆H₅)₂(C₅H₄S₅)] and [Sn(C₅H₄S₅)₂], respectively, are of interest because they can be regarded as intermediate in nature between chelates and heterocyclic compounds containing the C₃S₅ fragment. In contrast with the essentially normal bond lengths and angles within the molecules, the molecular conformations are somewhat unexpected, as are the intermolecular contacts found in the case of the latter compound.

Formula: [Sn(C₆H₅)₂(C₅H₄S₅)] and [Sn(C₅H₄S₅)₂]
