(N,N-Di-allyl-dithio-carbamato-κ2 S,S')tri-phenyltin(IV) and bis-(N,N-di-allyl-dithio-carbamato-κ2 S,S')di-phenyl-tin(IV): crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and computational study

The crystal and mol-ecular structures of the title organotin di-thio-carbamate compounds, [Sn(C6H5)3(C7H10NS2)] (I) and [Sn(C6H5)2(C7H10NS2)2] (II), present very distinct tin atom coordination geometries. In (I), the di-thio-carbamate ligand is asymmetrically coordinating with the resulting C3S2 donor set defining a coordination geometry inter-mediate between square-pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal. In (II), two independent mol-ecules comprise the asymmetric unit, which differ in the conformations of the allyl substituents and in the relative orientations of the tin-bound phenyl rings. The di-thio-carbamate ligands in (II) coordinate in an asymmetric mode but the Sn-S bonds are more symmetric than observed in (I). The resulting C2S4 donor set approximates an octa-hedral coordination geometry with a cis-disposition of the ipso-carbon atoms and with the more tightly bound sulfur atoms approximately trans. The only directional inter-molecular contacts in the crystals of (I) and (II) are of the type phenyl-C-H⋯π(phen-yl) and vinyl-idene-C-H⋯π(phen-yl), respectively, with each leading to a supra-molecular chain propagating along the a-axis direction. The calculated Hirshfeld surfaces emphasize the importance of H⋯H contacts in the crystal of (I), i.e. contributing 62.2% to the overall surface. The only other two significant contacts also involve hydrogen, i.e. C⋯H/H⋯C (28.4%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (8.6%). Similar observations pertain to the individual mol-ecules of (II), which are clearly distinguishable in their surface contacts, with H⋯H being clearly dominant (59.9 and 64.9%, respectively) along with C⋯H/H⋯C (24.3 and 20.1%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (14.4 and 13.6%) contacts. The calculations of energies of inter-action suggest dispersive forces make a significant contribution to the stabilization of the crystals. The exception is for the C-H⋯π contacts in (II) where, in addition to the dispersive contribution, significant contributions are made by the electrostatic forces.

(N,N-Diiso-propyl-dithio-carbamato)tri-phenyl-tin(IV): crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and computational study

The crystal and mol-ecular structures of the title triorganotin di-thio-carbamate, [Sn(C6H5)3(C7H14NS2)], are described. The mol-ecular geometry about the metal atom is highly distorted being based on a C3S tetra-hedron as the di-thio-carbamate ligand is asymmetrically chelating to the tin centre. The close approach of the second thione-S atom [Sn⋯S = 2.9264 (4) Å] is largely responsible for the distortion. The mol-ecular packing is almost devoid of directional inter-actions with only weak phenyl-C-H⋯C(phen-yl) inter-actions, leading to centrosymmetric dimeric aggregates, being noted. An analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surface points to the significance of H⋯H contacts, which contribute 66.6% of all contacts to the surface, with C⋯H/H⋯C [26.8%] and S⋯H/H⋯H [6.6%] contacts making up the balance.

Investigating the structural chemistry of organotin(IV) compounds: recent advances

Organotin(IV) compounds have been considered for their outstanding industrial, medical and specific applications in the synthesis of various types of chemical compounds. In this review, we have focused on the structural chemistry of organotin(IV) compounds, including coordination chemistry, the effect of structure on reactions, bond formations from the perspective of structure and investigation of the structure of organotin(IV) compounds in different phases. The structural chemistry of organotin(IV) compounds is subject to interest due to their major impact on predicting the properties and drumming up support for pushing back the frontiers of synthesis of organotin(IV) compounds with advanced properties.

Crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analyses of (N-hexyl-N-methyl-dithio-carbamato-κ2S,S')triphenyl-tin(IV) and [N-methyl-N-(2-phenyl-ethyl)-dithio-carbamato-κ2S,S']tri-phenyl-tin(IV)

The crystal and mol-ecular structures of two tri-phenyl-tin di-thio-carbamate compounds, viz. [Sn(C6H5)3(C8H16NS2)], (I), and [Sn(C6H5)3(C10H12NS2)], (II), are described. The di-thio-carbamate ligand in each mol-ecule coordinates in an asymmetric fashion resulting in heavily distorted tetra-hedral C3S coordin-ation geometries for the Sn atoms, with the distortions traced to the close approach of the non-coordinating thione-S atom. The mol-ecular packing in both compounds features C-H⋯π(Sn-phen-yl) inter-actions. In (I), the donors are Sn-phenyl-C-H groups leading to centrosymmetric aggregates, while in (II), the donors are both Sn-phenyl-C-H and methyl-C-H groups leading to supra-molecular chains propagating along the b axis. The identified aggregates assemble into their respective crystals with no directional inter-actions between them. An analysis of the Hirshfeld surfaces show distinctive patterns, but an overwhelming predominance (>99% in each case) of H⋯H, C⋯H/H⋯C and S⋯H/H⋯S contacts on the respective Hirshfeld surface.

Crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analyses of bis-[N,N-bis-(2-meth-oxy-eth-yl)di-thio-carbamato-κ2S,S']di-n-butyl-tin(IV) and [N-(2-meth-oxy-eth-yl)-N-methyl-dithio-carbamato-κ2S,S']tri-phenyl-tin(IV)

The crystal and mol-ecular structures of the two title organotin di-thio-carbamate compounds, [Sn(C4H9)2(C7H14NO2S2)2], (I), and [Sn(C6H5)3(C5H10NOS2)], (II), are described. Both structures feature asymmetrically bound di-thio-carbamate ligands leading to a skew-trapezoidal bipyramidal geometry for the metal atom in (I) and a distorted tetra-hedral geometry in (II). The complete mol-ecule of (I) is generated by a crystallographic twofold axis (Sn site symmetry 2). In the crystal of (I), mol-ecules self-assemble into a supra-molecular array parallel to (10-1) via methyl-ene-C-H⋯O(meth-oxy) inter-actions. In the crystal of (II), supra-molecular dimers are formed via pairs of weak phenyl-C-H⋯π(phen-yl) contacts. In each of (I) and (II), the specified assemblies connect into a three-dimensional architecture without directional inter-actions between them. Hirshfeld surface analyses confirm the importance of H⋯H contacts in the mol-ecular packing of each of (I) and (II), and in the case of (I), highlight the importance of short meth-oxy-H⋯H(but-yl) contacts between layers.

Secondary bonding in di-methyl-bis-(morpholine-4-carbodi-thio-ato-κ2S,S')tin(IV): crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis

The title compound, [Sn(CH3)2(C5H8NOS2)2], has the SnIV atom bound by two methyl groups which lie over the weaker Sn-S bonds formed by two asymmetrically chelating di-thio-carbamate ligands so that the coordination geometry is skew-trapezoidal bipyramidal. The most prominent feature of the mol-ecular packing are secondary Sn⋯S inter-actions [Sn⋯S = 3.5654 (7) Å] that lead to centrosymmetric dimers. These are connected into a three-dimensional architecture via methyl-ene-C-H⋯S and methyl-C-H⋯O(morpholino) inter-actions. The Sn⋯S inter-actions are clearly evident in the Hirshfeld surface analysis of the title compound along with a number of other inter-molecular contacts.

[N'-(4-Dec-yloxy-2-oxido-benzyl-idene)-3-hy-droxy-2-naphtho-hydrazidato-κ3N,O,O']di-methyl-tin(IV): crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis

The title diorganotin compound, [Sn(CH3)2(C28H32N2O4)], features a distorted SnC2NO2 coordination geometry almost inter-mediate between ideal trigonal-bipyramidal and square-pyramidal. The dianionic Schiff base ligand coordinates in a tridentate fashion via two alkoxide O and hydrazinyl N atoms; an intra-molecular hy-droxy-O-H⋯N(hydrazin-yl) hydrogen bond is noted. The alk-oxy chain has an all-trans conformation, and to the first approximation, the mol-ecule has local mirror symmetry relating the two Sn-bound methyl groups. Supra-molecular layers sustained by imine-C-H⋯O(hy-droxy), π-π [between dec-yloxy-substituted benzene rings with an inter-centroid separation of 3.7724 (13) Å], C-H⋯π(arene) and C-H⋯π(chelate ring) inter-actions are formed in the crystal; layers stack along the c axis with no directional inter-actions between them. The presence of C-H⋯π(chelate ring) inter-actions in the crystal is clearly evident from an analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surface.

Bis{4-methylbenzyl 2-[4-(propan-2-yl)benzyl-idene]hydrazine-carbodi-thio-ato-κ2N2,S}nickel(II): crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis

The complete mol-ecule of the title hydrazine carbodi-thio-ate complex, [Ni(C19H21N2S2)2], is generated by the application of a centre of inversion. The NiII atom is N,S-chelated by two hydrazinecarbodi-thio-ate ligands, which provide a trans-N2S2 donor set that defines a distorted square-planar geometry. The conformation of the five-membered chelate ring is an envelope with the NiII atom being the flap atom. In the crystal, p-tolyl-C-H⋯π(benzene- i Pr), i Pr-C-H⋯π(p-tol-yl) and π-π inter-actions [between p-tolyl rings with inter-centroid distance = 3.8051 (12) Å] help to consolidate the three-dimensional architecture. The analysis of the Hirshfeld surface confirms the importance of H-atom contacts in establishing the packing.
