SnCl2 complex with organic compounds
« on: January 04, 2013, 11:11:30 AM »
hi friends
I have some questions about SnCl2
why SnCl2 can form complex with some organic compounds?
and what is the reason of spot spraining in TLC?
when I add NaOH to my reaction mixture the complex destroys!!!  :o what is happening? ::)
thanks for your help
