Unexpected reactivity of “GaI” towards N,N′-diaryl-β-diketiminate tin(II) chloride: Synthesis, X-ray diffraction analysis and DFT studies

Reaction of the [HC(CMeNAr)2]SnCl (Ar = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2) with ‘‘GaI” in THF provided an unexpected transhalogenation reaction product [HC(CMeNAr)2]SnI. The crystal structure shows a tin(II) ion with a distorted tetrahedral pyramidal geometry. Theoretical calculations, using density functional theory...
