Preparation of tetraphenyltin (IV)
« on: November 15, 2008, 10:59:17 AM »
Hi, i have the general equation for the formation of tetraphenyltin (IV) as
SnCl4 + PhMgCl =  SnPh4.
But i was wondering :-
1)why do you have to first prepare SnCl4.2(C2H5)2O in the preparation of SnPh4 and
2) Is it possible to make SnPh2 from SnCl2

Thanks
