Materials Data on Sn(CCl)2 by Materials Project
Sn(CCl)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two Sn(CCl)2 ribbons oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. Sn2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to two equivalent C and two equivalent Cl1- atoms. Both Sn–C bond lengths are 2.08 Å. Both Sn–Cl bond lengths are 2.34 Å. C is bonded in a linear geometry to one Sn2+ and one C atom. The C–C bond length is 1.23 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sn2+ atom.
