The title compound, [TiCl3{(CH3)3Sn(C5H4)}], is the first structurally characterized complex of an early transition metal with a cyclopentadienyl ligand-bearing stannyl moiety. The Ti-Cp distance of 1.986 (4) Å [where Cp is the centroid of the cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ring] is the shortest among the complexes containing the CpTiCl3 moiety.
