(Z)- and (E)-1-methylthio-1-triphenylstannyl-2-phenylethene
摘要:
The structures of the title compounds, (Z)-Ph3Sn-C(SMe)=CHPh, (I), and (E)-Ph3Sn-C(SMe)=CHPh, (II) {both [Sn(C6H5)(3)(C9H9S)], (1-methylthio-2-phenylethenyl)triphenyltin}, were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at room temperature. Both structures consist of discrete molecules in which the Sn atom is tetrahedrally coordinated by three phenyl groups and one 1-methylthio-2-phenylethenyl group. The planar ethenyl skeleton forms angles of 58.9(2) and 34.0(3)degrees with the 2-phenyl substituent in (I) and (II), respectively, excluding pi interactions between them. In Z-isomer (I), the methyl substituent on sulfur lies in the plane of the ethenyl group [torsion angle C-S-C=C 3.0 (5)degrees], but this is not the case in E-isomer (II), which reveals a torsion angle C-S-C=C of 156.1(8)degrees.
