Crystal structure of tin(IV) chloride octa-hydrate.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, [SnCl4(H2O)2]·6H2O, was crystallized according to the solid-liquid phase diagram at lower temperatures. It is built-up of SnCl4(H2O)2 octa-hedral units (point group symmetry 2) and lattice water mol-ecules. An intricate three-dimensional network of O-H⋯O and O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds between the complex molecules and the lattice water molecules is formed in the crystal structure.
