title: Bis(μ-quinolin-8-olato)-κN,O:O;κO:N,O-bis-[chloridomethyl-phenyl-tin(IV)].
abstract: The Sn(IV) atom in the centrosymmetric dinculear title compound, [Sn(2)(CH(3))(2)(C(6)H(5))(2)(C(9)H(6)NO)(2)Cl(2)], shows a trans-C(2)SnNO(2)Cl distorted octa-hedral coordination [C-Sn-C = 157.83 (8)°]. The quinolin-8-olate anion chelates to the Sn atom; its O atom also binds to the inversion-related Sn atom, forming the dinuclear compound. In the crystal structure, weak inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding links the mol-ecules, forming supra-molecular chains running along [100].
