A tin‐containing benzene, stannabenzene, was synthesized and isolated as a monomeric form. The X‐ray crystallographic analysis revealed the planar structure of the stannabenzene ring and unsaturated Sn−C and C−C bonds without bond alternation. Low‐field shifted NMR signals and negative nuclear‐indep...
