“…One of the motivations to study these compounds is related to the rich coordinating behaviour of the oxalato ligand, which can adopt a monodentate, a bridging monodentate, a bridging bidentate, a monochelating, bidentate or a bichelating mode (Miskelly et al, 1983;Sow et al, 2012;Ś witlicka-Olszewska et al, 2014). In this context, our group has previously published the syntheses and crystal structure determinations of some tin(IV) oxalate derivatives (Sarr et al, 2013(Sarr et al, , 2018. As a continuation of this work, we have studied the interaction between bis(diisopropylammonium) oxalate with tin(IV) chloride dihydrate, which yielded the title salt…”
