[{2,6‐(Me 2 NCH 2 ) 2 C 6 H 3 (H 2 O)Sn}W(CO) 5 ] + CB 11 H 12 – : Aqua Complex of a Transition‐Metal‐Bound Organotin(II) Cation versus an Ammonium‐Type Structure
Abstract The molecular structures of the intramolecularly coordinated tungstenpentacarbonyl organostannylene complexes 2,6‐(Me 2 NCH 2 ) 2 C 6 H 3 (Cl)SnW(CO) 5 and [2,6‐(Me 2 NCH 2 ) 2 C 6 H 3 (H 2 O)SnW(CO) 5 ] + (CB 11 H 12 ) – are reported. The latter compound is an aqua complex in which the wat...

are reported. The latter compound is an aqua complex in which the water molecule replaces one of the two N→Sn coordination sites. The coordination of the water molecule is accompanied by proton transfer to the nitrogen atom. DFT calculations reveal this to be the thermodynamically most‐stable structure. |
