Triphenyltin chloride is an organotin compound with formula Sn(C6H5)3Cl. It is a colourless solid that dissolves in organic solvents. It slowly reacts with water. The main use for this compound is as a fungicide and antifoulant.[1] Triphenyl tin chloride is used as a chemosterilant. Triphenyl tins used as an antifeedants against potato cutworm.

Hazards

Triphenyltin chloride is as toxic as hydrogen cyanide.[2] It also caused detrimental effects on body weight, testicular size and structure, and decreased fertility in Holtzmann rats.[3]
