<p><b>Tin(II) 2-ethylhexanoate</b> or <b>tin(II) octoate</b> or <b>stannous octoate</b> (Sn(Oct)<sub>2</sub>) is the octaoate or 2-ethylhexanoate salt of tin. Produced by the reaction of <a href="page.php?w=tin%28II%29_oxide">tin(II) oxide</a> and <a href="page.php?w=2-ethylhexanoic_acid">2-ethylhexanoic acid</a>, it is a clear colorless liquid at room temperature, though often appears yellow due to impurities, likely resulting from oxidation of Sn(II) to Sn(IV).</p>

<p>It is sometimes used as a <a href="page.php?w=catalyst">catalyst</a> for <a href="page.php?w=ring-opening_polymerization">ring-opening polymerization</a>,</p><p>
