N2  - Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies have been carried out on the tetradentate SnII complex N,N&#8242;-(4,5-dimethyl-1,2-phenylene ) bis ( salicylideneiminato )tin(II) [ Sn ( saldph )] and the tetradentate complex N-(2-oxidophenyl) salicylideneiminatotin (II) [ Sn ( salop )]. Sn ( saldph ) is a monomer and has the SnII ion 1.126(1)&#506; above the plane of the O2N2 donors while Sn ( salop ) is dimeric with bridging between SnII ions by the oxygens of the oxidophenyl groups. SnII ions are raised above the O3N donor planes by 1.109(7)&#506; while the molecules are bent along the bridging O-O axis with a dihedral angle between the chelate planes of 92.1&#176;. The Mossbauer spectra of the complexes are reported. The SnII salicylideneimines react with H2O and oxygen but are inert to alkyl halides.
