“…1 4)-2.148(4) Å). 11 The only marked difference between the two trimethyltin aryloxide complexes are in the Sn(1)-O(1)-C(3)/C(4) angle which is larger for 1 (133.64(9)°) than for 2 (121.19(18)°) and is attributed to the greater steric interactions between the Me 3 Sn group and the ortho t Bu versus i Pr substituents on the aromatic ring.…”

“…All of these compounds were prepared by transmetallation. 11 The only marked difference between the two trimethyltin aryloxide complexes are in the Sn(1)-O(1)-C(3)/C(4) angle which is larger for 1 (133.64(9)°) than for 2 (121. Following workup by filtration through Celite and recrystallization, both complexes were isolated as white and off-white solids, respectively.…”
