Uses

Upon heating, a mixture of tetravinyltin and tin tetrachloride undergo disproportionation to form divinyltin dichloride, vinyltin trichloride, and trivinyltin chloride in high yields.^[2] A study about this can be found in the Journal of American Chemical Society.^[3]

Tetravinyltin cannot be used for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes and must only be used for research.^[4] It can also be used for thin film deposition.^[5]

Hazards

According to the European Chemicals Agency, tetravinyltin is flammable in liquid and gas form. It is also toxic when in contact with skin, inhaled, and swallowed.^[6] Therefore, personal protective equipment must be used in handling and proper caution applied during use.
