2N,O)stannate(IV)In the reaction of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid and stannic chloride in methanol, one equivalent of the carboxylic acid is protonated at the amino site and is also esterified, yielding the title salt, (C7H8NO2)[SnCl4(C6H4NO2)]. The SnIV atom in the anion is N,O-chelated by a pyridine-2-carboxylate in a cis-SnNOCl4 octahedral geometry. The cation is linked to the anion by an N-H
O hydrogen bond.
Stannic chloride pentahydrate 0.35 g, 1 mmol) and pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (0.13 g, 1 mmol) were loaded into a convection tube; the tube was filled with dry methanol and kept at 333 K. Colorless crystals were collected from the side arm after several days.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions [C—H 0.95 to 0.98 Å, Uiso(H) 1.2 to 1.5Ueq(C)] and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation.
The amino H-atom was located in a difference Fourier map, and was refined with a distance restraint of N–H 0.88±0.01 Å; its temperature factor was refined.

The direct synthesis of a potentially chelating amino-carboxylic acid with stannic tetrachloride has not been reported. Pyridine-2-carboxylic acid yields a number of derivatives with organotin compounds; these are either synthesized by condensing the amino-carboxylic acids with an organotin oxide/hydroxide or by reacting the amino-carboxylic acids with an organotin chloride in the presence of a proton abstractor. With the latter route, the product may be an organostannate in which the pyridine-2-carboxylate chelates to the chlorine-bonded tin atom (Nowell et al., 1983). In the reaction of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid and stannic chloride in methanol, one equivalent of the carboxylic acid is protonated at the amino site and is also esterified to yield the salt, [C7H8NO2]+ [SnCl4(C6H4NO2)]- (Scheme I, Fig. 1). The tin atom in the anion is N,O-chelated by a pyridine-2-carboxylate in an octahedral geometry. The cation is linked to the anion by an N–H···O hydrogen bond (Table 1).
