Reaction of [(PPh2鈺怤SiMe3)(PPh2鈺怱)CSn:]2 (1) with elemental sulfur in toluene afforded [{(渭-S)SnIVC(PPh2鈺怤SiMe3)(PPh2鈺怱)}3SnII(渭3-S)] (2) and [CH2(PPh2鈺怤SiMe3)(PPh2鈺怱)] (3). Compound 2 comprises a SnIIS moiety coordinated with the SnIV and S atoms of a trimeric 2-stannathiomethendiide {(PPh2鈺怤SiMe3)(PPh2鈺怱)CSn(渭-S)}3. Compound 2 has been characterized by NMR spectroscopy, 119Sn M枚ssbauer studies, X-ray crystallography, and theoretical studies. 119Sn NMR spectroscopy and M枚ssbauer studies show the presence of SnIV and SnII atoms in 2. X-ray crystallography suggests that the SnIIS moiety does not have multiple bond character. Theoretical studies illustrate that the Cmethanediide鈥揝n bonds comprise a lone pair orbital on each Cmethanediide atom and an C鈥揝n occupied 蟽 orbital.
