<unk>  compounds or stannanes are chemical compounds based on tin with hydrocarbon substituents.<unk>  chemistry is part of the wider field of organometallic chemistry . The first<unk>  compound was diethyltindiiodide, discovered by Edward Frankland in 1849. An<unk>  compound is commercially applied as a hydrochloric acid scavenger (or heat stabilizer) in polyvinyl chloride and as a biocide. Tributyltin oxide (or tributyltin for short) has been extensively used as a wood preservative. Tributyltin compounds are used as marine anti-biofouling agents. Concerns over toxicity of these compounds (some reports describe biological effects to marine life at a concentration of 1 nanogram per liter) have led to a world-wide ban by the International Maritime Organization. n-Butyltin trichloride is used in the production of tin oxide layers on glass bottles by chemical vapor deposition.
