“…Recently, we have investigated organotin compounds containing carboxylate ligands which have an additional hetero-donor atom (e.g. N, O or S) residing on the R 0 group, that is, potentially tridentate ligands, in order to examine what effect the presence of the heteroatom has on the structure adopted by these compounds [6,7]. As a part of our continuing program in this area we have synthesized and structurally characterized organotin(IV) carboxylates of rhodanine-N-acetic acid, and the results of this study are reported herein.…”
