Chemistry of Some Organotin Compounds

Organotin compounds (OTCs) are characterized as having at minimum one covalent bond between carbon and tin atoms, usually denoted by the formula RnSnX4-n (n =1-3, R =aryl or alkyl, X =halogen ion a carboxylate, etc.). There several methods to synthesis organotin compounds, they Grignard Kocheshkov reactions, Wurtz reaction alkylation method. The has two stable state,(II) (IV). Sn(II) forms pyramidal sp3complexes well trigonal bipyramidal sp3d complexes, whereas Sn(IV) complexes octahedral sp3d2complexes.
