Dichloridobis(di-tert-butyl­methyl­phosphine oxide-κO)diphenyl­tin(IV)

Abstract

The complete mol­ecule of the title compound, [Sn(C₆H₅)₂Cl₂(C₉H₂₁OP)₂], is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry, the Sn atom is located on a special position of site symmetry . The Sn atom adopts an all-trans SnC₂O₂Cl₂ octa­hedral geometry. As a consequence of the bulky substituents at the O atom, the P—O—Sn bond angle is 163.9 (3)°.

Comment

We are interested in Lewis-acidic Sn(IV) compounds and their reactivity towards Lewis bases. Recently we have reported the synthesis and structure of {Zn[Sn(CH₂SMe)₄]0.5Cl₂}_n and Sn(CH₂PPh₂)₄ (Ruth et al., 2007). In contrast to [SnCl₄].[CH₃SCH₃]₂ which forms an adduct in solid state with a six-coordinated Sn atom (Ruth et al., 2005), the Sn(IV) centers in {Zn[Sn(CH₂SMe)₄]0.5Cl₂}_n and Sn(CH₂PPh₂)₄ are tetra-coordinated. However, Me₃SnCl forms an adduct with Me₃SnOH and H₂O in which the Sn atoms possess the coordination number five. It is interesting to note that this adduct represents an intermediate in Me₃SnCl hydrolysis (Lerner et al., 2005). We report here the X-ray crystal structure analysis of the title adduct [Ph₂SnCl₂].[tBu₂MePO]₂, (I). The synthesis of (I) was achieved by treatment of Ph₂SnCl₂ with two equivalents of tBu₂MePO as indicated in the equation below.

Compound (I) has crystallographic inversion symmetry with just half a molecule in the asymmetric unit. The Sn atom is hexacoordinated by three pairs of different ligands in an octahedral fashion (Table 1). All ligand pairs of the same kind are mutually trans at the Sn atom (Fig. 1). As a consequence of the bulky substituents at the O atom the P—O—Sn angle is enlarged to 163.9 (3)°.

Experimental

tBu₂MePO (2.05 mmol) was added with stirring at ambient temperature to a solution of Ph₂SnCl₂ (0.58 mmol) in 25 ml THF. Colourless blocks of (I) were grown by storing this solution at room temperature for several weeks.

Refinement

The H atoms were geometrically positioned (C—H = 0.95-0.98Å) and refined as riding with U_iso(H) = 1.2U_eq(C) or 1.5 U_eq(methyl C).

Special details

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.
