LOPEZ-ALCAL,~ et aLwas fixed in the earlier study as the polar space group necessitates. The e.s.d.'s of the atom positions reported here are lower by an average factor of approximately 8 x 10 -2. With the more precise data, the apparent difference in C-C bond distances in the two types of glycinate rings (those containing a coordinating carboxyl oxygen in the equatorial plane of the pseudo pentagonal bipyramid and those containing a coordinated carboxyl oxygen axial to this plane) indicated in the earlier study disappears. On the other hand, these more precise data do indicate the same trend in Fe--O bond lengths and carboxyl C-O bond lengths observed by Hamor, Hamor & Hoard (1964) for Li[Fe(C10H12NzOs)(H20)].H20. In that structure it was observed that as the Fe--O bond length increased, the C-O (coordinated) bond length decreased and the C-O (uncoordinated) bond length increased in the carboxylate groups. Fig. 2 presents a packing diagram for the structure.The authors wish to acknowledge an NSF instrument grant for the P3/F diffractometer and R3 structuredetermination system. We would also like to thank Professor David H. Templeton who suggested the investigation of the polar dispersion effect in this study.

The title compound has been found to be dimeric. A twelve-membered ring is formed by two tetrahedrally bonded Sn atoms and two 4-chloro-1,3-benzenedithiolato moieties.
