Significance

Nine N-triorganostannylamines were prepared from aromatic amines and polymer-supported tributyltin iodide. They reacted with bromine or iodine monochloride to give para-halogenated aromatic amines in 41-76% yields with polymeric tin halides. Excellent para regio­selectivity was achieved in the case of iodination (para/ortho >99/1). The resulting polymer-supported tin halides were reusable for five times.
