3-(2-(1,10-Phenanthrolyl)-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine-chloroaquotriphenyltin(IV)(1:1) crystallizes in the orthorhombic system: a = 19.195, b = 9.144, c = 21.642 Angstroem, Z = 4, space group Pca2₁ (No.29).The structure was determined using the procedure for difference structures (DIRDIF) with Cu Kα diffractometer data, and refined by block-diagonal least squares to R = 0.031 for 3287 observed reflections.The tin atom is 5-coordinate with the three phenyl groups forming the equatorial plane.A chlorine atom and a water molecule complete the coordination.The triazine moiety does not coordinate directly to the metal atom.The only interaction is due to two N...H-O hydrogen bonds formed between two nitrogen atoms from the ligand and the water molecule.
