In the reaction of pyridine-2-carb-oxy-lic acid and stannic chloride in the presence of 2-methyl-8-hy-droxy-quinoline, the 2-methyl-8-hy-droxy-quinoline is protonated, yielding the title salt, (C(10)H(10)NO)[SnCl(4)(C(6)H(4)NO(2))]. The Sn(IV) atom in the anion is N,O-chelated by a pyridine-2-carboxyl-ate in a cis-SnNOCl(4) octa-hedral geometry. The cation is linked to the anion by an O-H⋯O hyd...

In the title compound, (C(12)H(12)NO(2))[Sn(C(4)H(9))(C(10)H(6)NO(2))Cl(3)], the Sn atom is coordinated by one O and one N atom of a quinolinium-2-carboxyl-ate anion, three Cl atoms and one butyl ligand within a distorted octa-hedron. Three C atoms of the butyl ligand are disordered and were refined using a split model; the site occupancies are 0.57 and 0.43. The NH group of the cation is invol...
