H.-J. Yang and Y.-Q. Dang

Abstract: In the title compound, [Sn(C₆H₁₁)₂(C₁₃H₁₅NO₄)], the Sn atom is five-coordinate and adopts a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal SnNC₂O₂ geometry with the O atoms in axial positions. The metal atom forms five- and six-membered chelate rings with the O,N,O'-tridentate ligand. The two cyclohexyl groups bound to the Sn atom adopt chair conformations, with the Sn-C bonds in equatorial positions and a mean Sn-C distance of 2.138 (3) Å.
