The molecular structures of the title compounds, showing the atom-labelling schemes. Displacement ellipsoids are drawn at the 50% probability level at ca 110 K, and H atoms are shown as small spheres of arbitrary radii. (a) Compound (I), which is located on the twofold rotation axis at (1, y, ) passing through the ZnII ion; only atoms of the asymmetric unit are labelled. (b) Compound (II), with atoms of the asymmetric unit labelled. The entire molecule of the complex is located on a plane of mirror symmetry (x, , z), which passes through the SnIV ion and is perpendicular to the plane of the DICNQ ligand. |
