Electrosynthesis of tin(II) alkoxides

Abstract

The anodic dissolution of tin metal in absolute alcohols yields oxoalkoxides with the general formula Sn6O4(OR)(4) (R = Me (1), Et (2), i-Pr (3)) and orthoalkoxides with the general formula Sn(OR)(2) (R = n-Bu (4), C2H4OMe (5)). According to X-ray crystallographic data, the molecule of Sn6O4(OEt)(4) (2) is an octahedral [Sn-6] cluster with alternating oxo and OEt groups on its faces. The mass spectra of 1 and 2 indicate the presence of fragments of the hexanuclear oxoalkoxides
