Abstract
The solid state structures of several compounds in the homologous series of alkyltriphenylstannanes of general formula Ph3Sn(CH2)(n-1)CH3 have been determined. For it in the range 4-10 the structures are monoclinic with space group P21/c. For n greater than 10 they are, instead, triclinic with space group P (1) over bar. The structural difference between the two classes is attributable to a change in the degree of control over the packing of the molecules exerted by the triphenylstannyl entity on the one hand and the alkyl chain on the other.
