[N'-(4-Dec-yloxy-2-oxido-benzyl-idene)-3-hy-droxy-2-naphtho-hydrazidato-κ3N,O,O']di-methyl-tin(IV): crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis.
The title diorganotin compound, [Sn(CH3)2(C28H32N2O4)], features a distorted SnC2NO2coordination geometry almost inter-mediate between ideal trigonal-bipyramidal and square-pyramidal. The dianionic Schiff base ligand coordinates in a tridentate fashionviatwo alkoxide O and hydrazinyl N atoms; an intra-molecular hy-droxy-O-H⋯N(hydrazin-yl) hydrogen bond is noted. The alk-oxy chain has an all-transconformation, and to the first approximation, the mol-ecule has local mirror symmetry relating the two Sn-bound methyl groups. Supra-molecular layers sustained by imine-C-H⋯O(hy-droxy), π-π [between dec-yloxy-substituted benzene rings with an inter-centroid separation of 3.7724 (13) Å], C-H⋯π(arene) and C-H⋯π(chelate ring) inter-actions are formed in the crystal; layers stack along thecaxis with no directional inter-actions between them. The presence of C-H⋯π(chelate ring) inter-actions in the crystal is clearly evident from an analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surface.
