First example of a Sn-C bond cleaved product in the reaction of Ph3SnOSnPh3 with carboxylic acids. 3D-supramolecular network formation in the X-ray crystal structure of [Ph2Sn(OH)OC(O)(Rf)]2, Rf = 2,4,6-(CF3)3C6H2.
A 1:2 reaction of Ph3SnOSnPh3 1 with RfCOOH 2 leads to the formation of [Ph2Sn(OH)OC(O)(Rf)]2 3, by means of a facile Sn-C bond cleavage process.
