Monomeric organotin dications {[ n Bu 2 Sn(H 2 O) 4 ] 2+ · 2C 6 H 5 SO 3 – } and {[ n Bu 2 Sn(H 2 O) 4 ] 2+ · 1,5‐C 10 H 6 (SO 3 – ) 2 } have been synthesized by the reaction of [ n Bu 2 SnO] n and the corresponding arylsulfonic acid. Dodecanuclear organooxotin macrocations {[( n BuSn) 12 (μ 3 ‐O) 14 (μ 2 ‐OH) 6 ] 2+ · 2RSO 3 – } (R = C 6 H 5 ; 2,5‐Me 2 C 6 H 3 ) have been synthesized by the reaction of n BuSn(O)(OH) and the corresponding arylsulfonic acid. The X‐ray crystal structure of one of the dodecanuclear cages is reported. These organotin cations have been shown to be effective catalysts in acetylation and transacetylation reactions.
