Chloridodimeth­yl(thio­semi­carbazide)tin(IV) chloride

In the title salt, [Sn(CH₃)₂Cl(CH₄N₃S)]Cl, the Sn^IV atom is five-coordinated in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry with two methyl groups and one S atom in the equatorial plane, and one N atom and one Cl atom occupying the apical positions. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by inter­molecular N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds with set graph-motif C(4) along [010]. N—H⋯ Cl hydrogen bonds with graph-set motif D(2) and D₃³(10) link cations and anions.

S1. Comment

Organotin(IV) complexes have been extensively studied due to the diversity of structures that such compounds can form and to their potential biological activities as well as their wide industrial and agricultural applications (Davies & Smith, 1982). In the framework of our research for new organotin(IV) compounds (Delgado et al., 2009), we report here the crystal structure of the title compound (I). The asymmetric unit is formed by one cation and one anion. The Sn atom is five-coordinate in a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry. The distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination polyhedron has two methyl groups and one S atom in the equatorial plane, the N2 and Cl1 atom occupying the apical positions. In the crystal, molecules are linked by intermolecular N—H···S hydrogen bonds with set graph-motif C(4) along [010]. N—H··· Cl hydrogen bond linking cations and anions with set graph-motif D(2) and D₃³(10) , Table 1 and Fig.2. The C1-S and C1-N1 bond distances are quite shorter than the ones reported for C-S and C-N single bonds (1.755 (4), 1.366 (6)) (Delgado et al., 2009), suggesting the delocalization of the C=S double bond on the SCN moiety.

S2. Experimental

Compound (I) was obtained by reacting dimethyltin (IV) dichloride (220 mg, 1 mmol) with thiosemicarbazide (68 mg, 0.75 mmol) in methanol under reflux for 3 h. Colourless crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were grown by slow solvent evaporation.

S3. Refinement

H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H, N—H distances of 0.96 and 0.86Å respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with U_iso(H) = 1.5U_eq(C) and 1.2U_eq(N)

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'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 > σ(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.
