The tin atom in the substituted ammonium stannate(IV), (C5H6N)2[SnBr3(C6H4Cl)2Cl], lies on a center of symmetry in a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Each independent halogen site is occupied by bromine and chlorine anions in an approximate 3:1 ratio. The pyridinium cation forms a hydrogen bond to only one of the halogen atoms.
Bis(4-chlorophenyl)tin dichloride (0.40 g, 1 mol) and pyridine hydrobromide perbromide (0.64 g, 2 mmol) were heated in chloroform for 3 h. Crystals separated from the cool solution after a day.
Hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95, N–H 0.88 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2U(C,N).
Each of the two independent tin-bound halogen atoms is a mixture of chlorine and bromine; as the total occupancy of chlorine refined to nearly 0.5 and that of bromine to nearly 1.5, these values were fixed as 0.5 and 1.5. Furthermore, the different halogen atoms sharing the same site were constrained to have the same coordinates and the same anisotropic displacement parameters. The final difference Fourier map did not have large peaks/deep holes near the disordered atoms.
