Abstract: The dinuclear title compound, [Sn2(CH3)2(C6H5)2(C7H3NO4)2(H2O)2]·2CHCl3, crystallizes as a dichloroform solvate; the centrosymmetric compound has Sn in a seven-coordinate, trans-pentagonal-bipyramidal geometry. The dicarboxylate unit is tetradentate; it binds through the N and the two O atoms (one from the dianion); one of the O atoms that is involved in coordination forms a bridge to the other Sn atom.
