Tin(II) chloride is a Lewis acid. You’re catalyzing the self condensation of acetone. Acetone is a terrible solvent and you should never use it if
there’s anything remotely acidic, or basic, or electrophilic, or nucleophilic... just don’t use acetone as a solvent for reactions unless
there’s a really good reason.
