colorless poisonous gas; decomposes rapidly at room temp; enthalpy of vaporization 19.05 kJ/mol [KIR80] [CRC10] | [Uses]
Stannane, SxH4 is a colorless poisonous gas that decomposes rapidly at room temperature. A large number of organostannanes, eg, R3SnH and R2SnH2, are known, and their properties as organic reducing agents have been extensively investigated. | [Definition]
A colorless poisonous gas prepared
by the action of lithium tetrahydroaluminate(III) on tin(II) chloride. It is unstable,
decomposing immediately at 150°C. Stannane acts as a reducing agent. |
