(p-Nitrobenzoato)triphenyltin at 298 K.
The structure at 298 K described here, [Sn(C(6)H(5))(3)(C(7)H(4)NO(4))], completely confirms the results at 173 K obtained previously [Weng, Das & Robinson (1990), Malays. J. Sci. 12, 57]. In both structures, weak interaction between Sn and the carbonyl O atom of the benzoate group provides a distorted trigonal-pyramidal environment at the Sn atom derived from its pseudo-tetrahedral primary coordination in both molecules of the asymmetric unit.
