Tin(IV) nitrate

Tin(IV) nitrate is a salt of tin with nitric acid. Unlike other nitrates it reacts with water to produce nitrogen dioxide.

Production

It was first prepared in the 1960s. Tin(IV) chloride was added to melted dinitrogen pentoxide which created tin(IV) nitrate and nitryl chloride.[3]

Attempts to prepare this compound by reacting tin(II) oxide and nitric acid resulted in a formation of tin(II) nitrate hydroxide.[4]

Reactions

Tin(IV) nitrate reacts with trifloroacetic acid anhydride to yield (NO2+)2[Sn(OOCCF3)62−] which is a nitronium salt. With trifluoroacetic acid a similar compound solvated with trifluoroacetic acid is produced.[5]

It also reacts with acetic anhydride to produce tin(IV) acetate and with nitric oxide to produce tin(IV) oxynitrate.
