In the title compound, [Sn(CH3)2(C18H13N3O2)], the SnIV ion is coordinated by one N and two O atoms from the tridentate 4-amino-N′-[(2-oxidonaphthalen-1-yl)methylidene]benzohydrazidate(2−) ligand and two C atoms from methyl ligands in a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry. The dihedral angle between the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring is 19.2 (2)°. In the crystal, weak N—HO hydrogen bonds link the molecules into zigzag chains along [010].
