Mu-2-Aminoterephthalato-Kappa O-2(1):O-4-Bis[Triphenyltin(Iv)]

The title compound, [Sn-2(C6H5)(6)(C8H5NO4)], contains two triphenyltin groups bridged by a 2-aminoterephthalate ligand. The two Sn-IV centers have similar distorted tetrahedral coordination geometries. Each Sn-IV atom is bonded to three phenyl C atoms and one O atom from a carboxylate group. The other O atom of the carboxylate group has a weak interaction with the Sn atom. The amino group is disordered over two sites, with site-occupancy factors of 0.779 (11) and 0.221 (11). Intramolecular N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds are observed.
