Abstract

In the title compound, [Sn(C(6)H(11))(2)(C(13)H(15)NO(4))], the Sn atom is five-coordinate and adopts a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal SnNC(2)O(2) geometry with the O atoms in axial positions. The metal atom forms five- and six-membered chelate rings with the O,N,O'-tridentate ligand. The two cyclo-hexyl groups bound to the Sn atom adopt chair conformations, with the Sn-C bonds in equatorial positions and a mean Sn-C distance of 2.138 (3) Å.
