C15H11N3*C18H17ClOSn, monoclinic, P2₁/n; at room temperature (299 K): a = 10.752(2), b = 9.560(2), c = 28.307(6) Angstroem, β = 95.42(2)^o; at 115 K: a = 10.6644(6), b = 9.4819(4), c = 28.338(2) Angstroem, β = 95.922(5)^o; Z = 4, D_c = 1.45 Mg m^-3.The final residual (R_F) is 0.020 on 3333 observed reflections at 115 K and 0.027 on 2986 observed reflections at room temperature.The Sn atom is coordinated to the Cl atom, the three phenyl groups and the water-molecule O atom in a trigonal-bipyramidal arrangement.The terpyridyl group is hydrogen-bonded to the water molecule which in turn is coordinated to the Sn atom.
