Tetrel bond in the triphenyltin(IV) chloride–cyclo­hexyl­diphenyl­phosphane oxide (1/1) cocrystal

The single-crystal X-ray diffraction structure of the title compound, [SnCl(C(6)H(5))(3)]·C(18)H(21)OP, is reported. The 1:1 cocrystal features a short and directional tetrel bond between tin and oxygen. The tin–oxygen distance is 2.346 (4) Å, representing 62% of the sum of the van der Waals radii o...

Sumario:The single-crystal X-ray diffraction structure of the title compound, [SnCl(C(6)H(5))(3)]·C(18)H(21)OP, is reported. The 1:1 cocrystal features a short and directional tetrel bond between tin and oxygen. The tin–oxygen distance is 2.346 (4) Å, representing 62% of the sum of the van der Waals radii of Sn and O. The Cl—Sn⋯O angle is 174.0 (1)° and this nearly linear arrangement is consistent with a tetrel bond formed via a σ-hole opposite the tin–chlorine covalent bond. Some weak C—H⋯Cl inter­actions are noted between adjacent mol­ecules. [Image: see text]
