Bis(trimethyl-ammonium) tetra-chlorido-diphenyl-stannate(IV)
Abstract:
The title compound, [(CH(3))(3)NH](2)[Sn(C(6)H(5))(2)Cl(4)], consists of [(CH(3))(3)NH](+) cations and [SnPh(2)Cl(4)](2-) anions in which the Sn atom, located on a centre of inversion, is bonded to four Cl atoms and two phenyl rings, giving an octa-hedral geometry with the phenyl rings in trans positions. In the crystal, the cations and the anions are connected by N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯Cl inter-actions.

Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
