Abstract

Four new organotin thiotetrazoles 1,4-(R3SnSCN4)2C6H4 (R = Me, Et, Bu or Ph), along with their triphenyllead, diphenylthallium and phenylmercury analogues, have been synthesized. The supramolecular structure of 1,4-(Bu3SnSCN4)2C6H4 has been found to consist of a 2-D sheet arrangement containing 32-membered (C4NCSSnN2CSSnN3)2 rings. In contrast, 1,4-(Me3SnSCN4)2C6H4 crystallises as a bis(methanol) solvate in which 14-membered (SnSCN2HO)2 rings are linked through hydrogen bonds into a 1-D polymer.
