Abstract

The preparation of triphenyltin-lithium from stannous chloride and phenyllithium has been described (l), and this article reports the findings of more extensive investigation into the chemical nature of the organometallic complex. Triphenyltin-lithium is thought to be a complex formed by the addition of phenyllithium to diphenyltin (2). The central tin atom in diphenyltin has an open octet which is readily filled by the phenyl anion of phenyllithium.** ...
