Hypothesis
The study investigates the synthesis of a new metal-organic compound using triethylamine as a proton abstractor.
Conclusion
The reaction successfully produced a new salt with a stannate anion chelated by a pyridine-2-carboxylate group.
Supporting Evidence
- The cation and the anion in the title salt are linked by an N—H⋯O hydrogen bond.
- The SnIV atom in the stannate anion is chelated by the pyridine-2-carboxylate group.
- The cation is disordered over two positions in a 0.564(1):0.436(1) ratio.
Takeaway
The researchers made a new chemical compound by mixing some ingredients together, and it turned out well!
Methodology
The reaction was carried out under nitrogen atmosphere with specific amounts of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid, triethylamine, and stannic chloride in dry methanol.
