Abstract Reactions of 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]-2-hydroxybenzoic acids (LHH′, where the aryl group is an R-substituted phenyl ring such that for L1HH′: R = H; L2HH′: R = 2′-CH3; L3HH′: R = 3′-CH3; L4HH′: R = 4′-CH3; L5HH′: R = 4′-Cl; L6HH′: R = 4′-Br) with nBu2SnO in a 1:1 molar ratio yielded complexes of composition {[nBu2Sn(LH)]2O}2. The complexes have been characterized by 1H, 13C, 119Sn NMR, ESI-MS, IR and 119mSn Mossbauer spectroscopic techniques in combination with elemental analyses. The crystal structures of {[nBu2Sn(L1H)]2O}2 (1), {[nBu2Sn(L4H)]2O}2 (4), {[nBu2Sn(L5H)]2O}2 (5) and {[nBu2Sn(L6H)]2O}2 (6) were determined.

Dibutyltin(IV) complexes containing arylazobenzoate ligands: chemistry, in vitro cytotoxic effects on human tumor cell lines and mode of interaction with some enzymes.

Dibutyltin(IV) complexes of composition Bu2Sn (LH)2, where LH is a carboxylate residue derived from 2-[(E)- (5-tert-butyl-2- hydroxyphenyl)diazenyl]benzoate (L1H) with water molecule (1), 4-[(E)-(5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl) diazenyl]benzoate (L2H) (2) and 4-[(E)-(4-hydroxy-5- methylphenyl)diazenyl]benzoate (L3H) (3), were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic (1H, 13C and 119Sn NMR, IR, 119Sn Mössbauer) techniques.

Molecular basis of the interaction of novel tributyltin(IV) 2/4-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl] benzoates endowed with an improved cytotoxic profile: Synthesis, structure, biological efficacy and QSAR studies

A series of tributyltin(IV) complexes based on 2/4-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]benzoate ligands was synthesized, wherein the position of the carboxylate and aryl substituents (methyl, tert-butyl and hydroxyl) varies. The complexes, Bu(3)SnL(1-4)H (1-4), have been structurally characterized by elemental analysis and IR, NMR ((1)H, (13)C, and (119)Sn) and (119)Sn Mossbauer spectroscopy. All have a tetrahedral geometry in solution and a trigonal bipyramidal geometry in the solid-state, except for Bu(3)SnL(4)H (4) that was ascertained to have tetrahedral coordination by X-ray crystallography. Cytotoxicity studies were carried out on human tumor cell lines A498 (renal cancer), EVSA-T (mammary cance…

Four new triphenyltin(IV) complexes of composition Ph 3SnLH (where LH = 2-/4-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]benzoate) (1-4) were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic ( 1H, 13C and 119Sn NMR, IR, 119Sn Mössbauer) techniques in combination with elemental analysis. The 119Sn NMR spectroscopic data indicate a tetrahedral coordination geometry in non-coordinating solvents. The crystal structures of three complexes, Ph 3SnL 1H (1), Ph 3SnL 3H (3), Ph 3SnL 4H (4), were determined. All display an essentially tetrahedral geometry with angles ranging from 93.50(8) to 124.5(2)°; 119Sn Mössbauer spectral data support this assignment.
