Redetermination of a cyclic triphosphenium hexachlorostannate salt at 173 K

B. D. Ellis and C. L. B. Macdonald

Abstract: At 173 K, the structure of the cyclic `triphosphenium' salt, bis[1,1,3,3-tetraphenyl-1,3,2-triphospholenylium] hexachlorostannate(IV) dichloromethane solvate, (C₂₆H₂₄P₃)₂[SnCl₆]·2CH₂Cl₂, contains one cation, one solvent molecule and half of a centrosymmetric hexachlorostannate dianion in the asymmetric unit. There are no unusually short anion-cation distances and the structures of the component ions are comparable to those that have been reported previously.
