Polymeric [p-(2-Hydroxy-5-methylphenylazo)benzoato]trimethyltin

...The presence of bidentate bridging carboxylate ligands leads to the formation of a polymeric structure in the title compound, catena-poly[trimethyltin-[mu]-[p-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenylazo)benzoato-O:O']], [Sn(C₁₄H₁₁N₂O₃)(CH₃)₃]_n. The Sn atom is five-coordinate and exists in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry with the three methyl groups defining the trigonal plane.
