Abstract: Molecules of the title compound, [Sn₂(C₆H₅)₆(C₆H₂O₄S)], lie on inversion centres with the central thiophene ring disordered equally over two orientations. The carboxylate groups are approximately coplanar with the thiophene ring [dihedral angle = 4.0 (1)°] and the Sn-O bond distance of 2.058 (4) Å is comparable to that in related organotin carboxylates.
