title: (μ-Piperazine-1,4-dicarbodithioato-κS,S':S'',S''')bis-[triphenyl-tin(IV)] dichloro-methane solvate.
abstract: The dinuclear centrosymmetric title compound, [Sn(2)(C(6)H(5))(6)(C(6)H(8)N(2)S(4))]·CH(2)Cl(2), features a distorted cis-trigonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry for Sn based on a C(3)S(2) donor set. The dinuclear mol-ecule lies across a centre of inversion. The solvent dichloro-methane mol-ecule is disordered about a centre of inversion.
