    A silylene-stabilized ditin(0) complex and its conversion to methylditin cation and distannavinylidene

    Due to their intrinsic high reactivity, isolation of tin(0) complexes remains challenging. Herein, we report the synthesis of a silylene-stabilized ditin(0) complex (2) by reduction of a silylene-supported dibrom...
