The title molecule, [Sn(C8H3F6)4], lies on a twofold rotation axis with the SnIV ion in a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment. Both –CF3 groups attached to one of the unique benzene rings are disordered over two sets of sites, with the ratios of refined occupancies being 0.719 (14):0.281 (14) and 0.63 (5):0.37 (5).
