(Dimethyl sulfoxide-κO)trimeth-yl(2-methyl-3,5-dinitro-benzoato-κO)tin(IV).

ABSTRACT: In the title mononuclear complex, [Sn(CH(3))(3)(C(7)H(5)N(2)O(6))(C(2)H(6)OS)], the Sn(IV) ion is coordinated by three methyl groups in the equatorial plane, and by an O atom from a 2-methyl-3,5-dinitrobenzoate ligand and a dimethyl sulfoxide ligand in the axial sites, to form a slightly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal environment. The O atoms of one of the nitro groups are disordered over two sets of sites, with refined occupancies of 0.55 (4) and 0.45 (4). The closest inter-molecular inter-action is a weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bond.
