A layered tin(II) phosphonate, [Sn(C6H5O3P)]n.
Poly[tin(II)-mu-phenylphosphonato], [Sn(C(6)H(5)O(3)P)](n), was synthesized solvothermally at 423 K and crystallized in the monoclinic system, space group Cc. The inorganic layers consist of alternating pyramidal Sn and tetrahedral P centers, joined by doubly bridging O atoms. The corner-sharing SnO(3) and PO(3)C(6)H(5) polyhedra define a corrugated layer of six-membered rings. The layers are connected along the unique b axis by interdigitated phenyl rings of the phenylphosphonate groups.
