In the polymeric title coordination compound, [Sn(C6H5)3(C7H7O2Se)]n, the SnIV atom has a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry, with two O atoms from two symmetry-related bridging seleninate ligands in axial positions and three phenyl groups in the equatorial plane. In the crystal, the complex exhibits a zigzag chain structure running parallel to the c axis. An intrachain C—H⋯O hydrogen bond is observed.

The reaction was carried out under a nitrogen atmosphere. 3-Tolueneseleninic acid (1 mmol) and sodium ethoxide (1 mmol) were added to a stirred solution of methanol (30 ml) in a Schlenk flask and stirred for 30 min. Triphenyltin chloride (1 mmol) was then added to the reactor and the reaction mixture was stirred for 10 h at room temperature. The resulting clear solution was evaporated under vacuum. The product was crystallized from a solution of ether to yield colourless blocks of the title compound (yield 60%). Anal. Calcd (%) for C25H22O2Sn1Se1 (Mr = 552.08): C,54.39; H, 4.02. Found (%): C, 54.25; H, 4.28.
The H atoms were positioned geometrically, with methyl C—H distances of 0.96 Å and aromatic C—H distances of 0.93 Å, and refined as riding on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for the methyl group or Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for the phenyl groups.
Organotin compounds have been attracting more and more attention due to their wide range of industrial applications and biological activities (Dubey & Roy, 2003). As a part of our ongoing investigations in this field (Guo et al., 2011), we have synthesized the title compound and present its
herein.The
of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. An extended one-dimensional zigzag chain structure running parallel to the c axis is formed by the bridging role of the 3-methylphenylseleninate anions (Fig. 2). The Se—O bond distances in the compound (Se1—O1 = 1.674 (4) Å; Se1—O2 = 1.698 (3) Å) are comparable to those found in a related polymeric organotin complex (Chandrasekhar et al., 1992). The Sn atom is five-coordinate in a slightly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry, provided by the phenyl groups in the equatorial positions and two O atoms of symmetry related 3-methylphenylseleninate groups in the axial positions. An intrachain C—H···O hydrogen bond is observed (Table 1).For the biological activity of organotin compounds, see: Dubey & Roy (2003). For related structures, see: Chandrasekhar et al. (1992); Guo et al. (2011).

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. |

Organotin compounds have been attracting more and more attention due to their wide range of industrial applications and biological activities (Dubey & Roy, 2003). As a part of our ongoing investigations in this field (Guo et al., 2011), we have synthesized the title compound and present its crystal structure herein.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. An extended one-dimensional zigzag chain structure running parallel to the c axis is formed by the bridging role of the 3-methylphenylseleninate anions (Fig. 2). The Se—O bond distances in the compound (Se1—O1 = 1.674 (4) Å; Se1—O2 = 1.698 (3) Å) are comparable to those found in a related polymeric organotin complex (Chandrasekhar et al., 1992). The Sn atom is five-coordinate in a slightly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry, provided by the phenyl groups in the equatorial positions and two O atoms of symmetry related 3-methylphenylseleninate groups in the axial positions. An intrachain C—H···O hydrogen bond is observed (Table 1).
