The (Z)-2-(triarylstannyl)-1-(9-hydroxy-9-fluorenyl) ethylene [aryl=phenyl(1), Aryl=p-tolyl(2)] were synthesized by reactions of 9- ethynyl-9-fluorenol and triaryltin hydride in diethyl ether. Six mono- halogenated organotin, six di-halogenated organotin and two mixture- halogenated organotin compounds were formed by the reaction of 1 and 2 with ICl, Br~2 and I~2. Two organotin hydroxides and two oxides were prepared by the reaction of organotin iodide 7, 13 and diiodide 8, 14 with KOH in ethanol. Six complexes were obtained by the reaction of 1, 10-phenanthroline (L^1), 2, 2'-bipyridyl (L^2), 8-hydroxyquinoline (L^3) and [Z]-2-(aryldiiodidestannyl)-1-(9-hydroxy-9-fluorenyl) ethylene. The twenty-six new compounds were characterized by the means of elemental analysis, IR and ^1H NMR spectroscopy. The compound 2 was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal belongs to monoclinic space group P2~1/c. The tin atom in the structure is in a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment.
