3α-Triphenylstannylcholest-5-ene (1) has been synthesised and its molecular structure has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Refinement in the triclinic space groupP1 witha=7.805(6),b=7.862(5),c=32.351(10)Å, α=90.87(8), β=94.77(8) and γ=101.15(4)oconverged atR=0.063. One of the two crystallographically independent molecules in the unit cell has a patially disordered side chain. The bond lengths and valency angles about tin indicate some steric hindrance due to the proximity of one of the phenyl rings with the B ring of the steroid nuc
