Abstract

The solid state structures of several compounds in the homologous series of alkyltriphenylstannanes of general formula Ph3Sn (CH2) n− 1CH3 have been determined. For n in the range 4–10 the structures are monoclinic with space group P21/c. For n greater than 10 they are, instead, triclinic with space group P1¯. The structural difference between the two classes is attributable to a change in the degree of control over the packing of the ...
