Abstract

In the title compound, (C28H43N2) [SnCl3], two pairs of molecular species are present in the asymmetric unit. The employed α-diimine opens up, forming a highly asymmetric ammonium that has its protons at one of the N atoms [N - C= 1.264 (4) and 1.516 (4) Å]. One of the C=N double bonds was oxidized to C - N, which is consistent with the bond length of 1.516 (4) Å. Meanwhile SnIV was reduced to SnII. The (SnCl)3 - anion is trigonal-pyramidal. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C - H⋯Cl, N - H⋯Cl, N - H⋯N and C - H⋯N bonds. The crystal studied was twinned by pseudo-merohedry.
