Popis: [Sn(OPMe3)3(CF3SO3)2]6 (1) self-assembles to form a highly unusual hexagonal metallocyclic array with bridging CF3SO3− groups. The discrete hexamers stack along the c-axis to form hydrophobic CF3-lined channels with an F⋯F distance across the channel diameter of 0.8 nm. This Sn(ii) complex is different from its Pb(ii) analogue, which instead forms a discrete, doubly CF3SO3-bridged dimer of formula, [{Pb(OPMe3)3(CF3SO3)}2(μ-CF3SO3)2] (3).
