In [Sn(CH3)2(C7H11OS2)2], the environment about the Sn atom is distorted tetrahedral, defined by the donor S atoms of the two monodentate dithiocarbonato (xanthate) ligands and by the two methyl C atoms. The second S atom of each xanthate ligand is twisted towards the Sn atom, in the so-called S,S orientation.
