Résumé : Crystal structure determinations of {[(F5C6COO)Bu2Sn]2O}2 and {[(4‐F‐C6H4COO)‐Bu2Sn]2O}2 show that the structures are similar and feature central Bu4Sn2O2 units with two Bu2Sn groups connected by bridging oxygen atoms. Each pair of exo‐ and endo‐cyclic tin atoms is linked by an almost symmetrically bridging carboxylate group, with the two remaining groups attached to the exocyclic tin atom only. Crystals of {[(F5C6COO)Bu2Sn]2O}2 are triclinic, space group P1, with unit cell dimensions a = 12.425(3) Å, b = 13.090(5) Å, c = 11.697(3) Å, α = 95.31(3)°, β = 93.28(2)°, γ = 113.01(2)°, V = 1734(1) Å3, Z = 1. Crystals of {[(4‐F‐C6H4COO)Bu2Sn]2O}2, are also triclinic, space group PI, a = 12.599(6) Å, b= 25.359(4) Å, c = 11.480(4) Å, α = 91.44(3)°, β = 114.77(3)°, γ=97.43(3)°, V=3289(2) Å3, Z=2. The structures were refined to final R= 0.046, Rw = 0.046 for 4312 reflections with I≥ 3.0 σ(l) for {[(F5C6COO)Bu2Sn]2O}2 and R=0.061, Rw=0.068 for 4112 reflections with l≥3.0 σ(l for {[(4‐F‐C6H4COO)Bu2Sn]2O}2.
