General description

Tin(II) chloride dehydrate converts conjugated dioxolones to aldehyde. It helps as a catalyst in multi-component condensation reaction from aromatic aldehydes, 2-aminopyridines and isonitriles which results in reasonable yield and reducing the reaction time.

Application

Tin(II) chloride dehydrate may be used:
  • As a reducing agent for the determination of hydride forming species by AAS.
  • In the conversion of organomercurials into inorganic mercury determined using a flow injection-cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometry
  • In the determination of total mercury content, using atomic fluorescence spectroscopy and mercury speciation was performed using gas chromatography inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (GC-ICPMS).

The anionic speciation of chlorostannate(II) ionic liquids, prepared by mixing 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride and tin(II) chloride in various molar ratios, χ(SnCl2), was investigated in both solid and liquid states. The room temperature ionic liquids were investigated by (119)Sn NMR spectroscopy, X-ray
