Abstract 3-(Trialkylstannyl) propyl aryl sulphides (R 3 SnCH 2 CH 2 CH 2 SR′; R= Me, Et, Bu; R′= Ph, p-tolyl) were prepared by the addition of arenethiols to allyltrialkyltin compounds. Preferential cleavage of the allyl group by the reaction R 3 SnCH 2 CH CH 2+ R′ SH→ R 3 SnSR′+ CH 3 CH CH 2 occurred when R= R′= Bu and R= R′= Ph. Diallyltin dibromide and benzenethiol gave stannous bromide. Mössbauer parameters of ...
