A new class of nonlinear optical materials , tetrahedral tin complexes in which the metal ion can act as a polarizable group linked to donor dimethylamino moieties, is described. An example shown Figure. The quadratic hyperpolarizability coefficients determined by hyper‐Raman scattering are reported and important characteristics molecules discussed. magnified image
