Stannocene is an organometallic compound with the formula . It appears yellow-brown, and melts around 105 °C.

Chemically, stannocene is a metallocene that can be produced efficiently from cyclopentadienyl sodium and tin(II) chloride. Unlike in ferrocene the two cyclopentadienyl rings are not parallel.
