Triclinic form of bis{di-
-hydroxidobis[fac-aquatribromidotin(IV)]} heptahydrate
The asymmetric unit of the title hydrate, 2[Sn(H2O)2(OH)2Br6]·7H2O, comprises two [Br3(H2O)Sn(
-OH)2SnBr3(OH2)] units, but three independent molecules as two of these are disposed about inversion centres, and seven water molecules. In common with the monoclinic polymorph [Howie et al. (2005). Inorg. Chim. Acta, 358, 3283-3286], each of the dinuclear species features a central Sn2O2 core, distorted octahedral Sn atom geometries defined by a Br3O3 donor set, and an anti-disposition of the coordinated water molecules. In the crystal, Oh-H

Br (h = hydroxyl, a = aqua, w = water) hydrogen-bonding interactions generate a three-dimensional network.
Solutions of PrS(═O)OCH2CH2S(═O)OPr (210 mg, 1 mmol) in MeOH (15 ml)
and SnBr4 (440 mg, 1 mmol) in MeOH (15 ml) were mixed. After maintaining the
reaction mixture at room temperature for several days, the microcrystalline
precipitate was collected. As the crystals were not suitable for X-ray study,
they were redissolved in MeOH and the solution was maintained at room
temperature. After two weeks, colourless blocks of (I)
suitable for X-ray analysis
were collected and found to be hydrolysed stannic bromide. On heating the
crystals, decomposition slowly occurred, and hence no melting point was
measured. Standing in a moist atmosphere resulted in the formation of a syrup.
The O-bound H atoms were located from difference maps and refined with O–H =
0.840±0.001 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C). The maximum
and minimum residual electron density peaks of 1.06 and 1.63 e Å-3,
respectively, were located 2.28 Å and 0.82 Å from the H6 and Sn2 atoms,
respectively. The ADDSYM routine in PLATON (Spek, 2003) suggested the
possibility of additional (C) symmetry. However, in this pseudo-symmetric
setting, the O9-water molecule has no symmetry equivalent in the structure.

Special details top
Geometry. All s.u.'s (except the s.u. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are
estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell s.u.'s are taken into
account individually in the estimation of s.u.'s in distances, angles and
torsion angles; correlations between s.u.'s in cell parameters are only used
when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic)
treatment of cell s.u.'s is used for estimating s.u.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor
wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional
R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for
negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 >
2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is
not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors
based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on
F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The monoclinic (P21/c) polymorph of the title compound was originally isolated as an hydrolysis product during recrystallisation experiments (Howie et al., 2005). The present triclinic polymorph was isolated similarly as an hydrolysis product.
The crystallographic asymmetric unit of (I) comprises two formula units of [(H2O)Br3Sn(µ-OH)2SnBr3(OH2)] and seven water molecules of crystallisation. One of the [Br3(H2O)Sn(µ-OH)2SnBr3(OH2)] molecules occupies a general position, Fig. 1, whereas two are disposed about crystallographic centres of inversion, Figs 2 and 3. Nevertheless, the molecules are closely related in terms of overall geometry with differences relating primarily to variations in geometric parameters. Each dinuclear molecule features two Sn centres connected by symmetrically bridging hydroxyl groups, with two Br atoms lying in the plane of the central Sn2O2 core to form an equatorial Br4Sn2O2 framework. For each Sn atom, the third Br atom lies to one side of the plane and the coordinated water molecule to the other so that the water molecules are anti. The Sn–Ohydroxyl bond distances are systematically shorter than the Sn—Oaqua distances, and the Sn–Brequatorial bond distances are shorter than the Sn—Braxial bond distances. The elongation of the Sn—Braxial bond distances partially relates to the participation of these atoms in intramolecular Oaqua–H···Br hydrogen bonds which are systematically shorter than the intermolecular Owater–H···Br hydrogen bonds, Table 1. The observed trends for the dinuclear species match those found in the monoclinic polymorph (Howie et al., 2005) and other related di-µ-hydroxo-bis[fac-trichloroaquotin(IV)] complexes (Barnes et al, 1980; Cameron et al., 1985; Shihada et al., 2004; Müller et al., 2007).
Extensive hydrogen bonding is found in the crystal structure that link all components into a 3-D network. Each hydroxyl group forms a single Ohydroxyl–H···Owater hydrogen bond. In the case of the centrosymmetric molecules, i.e. containing the Sn3 and Sn4 atoms, single water molecules serve as bridges between them to form a supramolecular chain aligned along [1 1 0], Fig. 4 and Table 1. It is these Ohydroxyl–H···Owater hydrogen bonds that appear to be the major difference between the the triclinic and monoclinic forms. In the monoclinic form, one hydroxyl group forms a single Ohydroxyl–H···Owater hydrogen bond whereas the other forms two, with neither forming direct bridges between dinuclear molecules. In (I), each of the aqua molecules forms an intramolecular Oaqua–H···Br hydrogen bond as well as an Oaqua–H···Owater interaction, Table 1. Three of the lattice water molecules form two Owater–H···Br hydrogen bonds and the remaining four water molecules form a single Owater–H···Br hydrogen bond and an Owater–H···Owater hydrogen bond. A view of the unit cell contents is shown in Fig. 5.
