%X Ionic compounds R+SnPh3-, where R = Me4N, (Ph3P)2N, Na(15-crown-5) or K(18-crown-6), are prepared from alkali metal derivatives, Ph3SnM, by reactions in liquid ammonia which yield the products as yellow crystalline solids, soluble in a weakly basic solvent. N.m.r. and vibrational spectra of the Ph3Sn- anion, a pyramidal species with C3V symmetry, and the cationic complexes [M(crown)]+, are reported and assigned.
