Tin(IV) chloride is a precursor to prepare organotin compounds such as tetralkyltin and dialkyldichlorotin(IV), which finds application as catalysts and polymer stabilizers. As a Lewis acid catalyst, it is used in Fridel-Crafts reactions for alkylation and cyclization. It is involved in the selective nitration of aromatic compounds in presence of fuming nitric acid. Furthermore, it is used to prepare tin(IV) oxide coating by sol-gel process. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.
