Wellknown production methods of nanoscale metal oxide like tin dioxide are liquid phase chemical methods: sol-gel method, chemical solution deposition, chemical vapor deposition, etc. [1–3]. One of the main stages in such technologies is the decomposition of one, thermally unstable, compound to produce tin dioxide as the final product. The production of such compounds is limited enough. The limited and contradictory literature data on their physical and chemical properties determined the necessity to find a suitable precursor for nanosized tin dioxide production. Previously, authors [4] by means of the method of chemical precipitation from solution proposed the preparation technique for SnO2 film production with polyvinyl acetate (PVA) as a structuring additive. The complex bis(acetylacetonato)dichlorotin (BADCT) was used as a precursor of tin dioxide. In [5], it was firstly mentioned the fact of obtaining of BADCT (Sn(C5H7O2)2Cl2) in 1903. Earlier in the literature [5–8], it was reported the BADCT production using chloroform [5] or dry toluene [8] as solvents. A special feature of our method is using of water as a solvent.ennanoscale metal oxidesol-gel methodchemical solution depositionchemical vapor depositioncompound to produce tin dioxideZrO2Article
