Carboxylate bridges link the two independent molecules of triphenyltin N,N-diethylthiocarbamoylthioacetate, (I), and the four independent molecules of triphenyltin N-methyl-N-phenylthiocarbamoylthioacetate, (II), into linear chains whose Sn atoms show trans-trigonal-bipyramidal coordination, i.e. (I) is catena-poly[triphenyltin-μ-(N,N-diethylthiocarbamoylthioacetato-O:O′)], [Sn(C₆H₅)₃(μ-C₇H ₁₂NO₂S₂)]_n, and (II) is catena-poly[triphenyltin-μ-(N-methyl-N-phenylthiocarbamoylthioacetato-O: O′)], [Sn(C₆H₅)₃(μ-C₁₀H ₁₀NO₂S₂)]_n. Triphenyltin N,N-tetramethylenethiocarbamoylthioacetate {or triphenyl(N,N-tetramethylenethiocarbamoylthioacetato-O)tin, [Sn(C₆H₅)₃(C₇H₁₀-NO ₂S₂)]} exists as a monomeric tetrahedral molecule.
