Abstract

The reaction between the phosphine–borane-stabilised dicarbanioncomplex [1,2-C₆H₄{CHP(BH₃)Cy₂}₂][Li(THF)_n]₂ and Cp₂Sn gives theunusual stannyl–stannylene [[1,2-C₆H₄{CHP(BH₃)Cy₂}₂]Sn]₂1/2PhMe, in which one dicarbanion ligand chelates a tin centre, while theother bridges a tin–tin bond. The stannylene centre is stabilised byan agostic-type B–H  Sn interaction.
