Preparation and structural studies on dibutyltin(IV) complexes with pyridine mono- and dicarboxylic acids
Abstract A number of organotin(IV) complexes with pyridine mono- and dicarboxylic acids (containing ligating –COOH group(s) and aromatic {N} atoms) were prepared in the solid state. The bonding sites of the ligands were determined by means of FT-IR spectroscopic measurements. It was found that in most cases the –COO− groups form bridges between two central {Sn} atoms, thereby leading to polymeric (oligomeric) complexes. On this basis, the experimental 119Sn Mossbauer spectroscopic data were treated with partial quadrupole splitting approximations. The calculations predicted the existence of complexes with octahedral (oh) and trigonal-bipyramidal (tbp) structures, but the formation of comple…
Characterization of diorganotin(IV) complexes with captopril. The first crystallographically authenticated metal complex of this anti-hypertensive agent
Abstract Diorganotin(IV) complexes R 2 Sn(cap) (capH 2 = N -[( S )-3-mercapto-2-methylpropionyl]- l -proline; R=Me, Et, n -Bu and t -Bu) were prepared and characterised. The FTIR and Raman spectra demonstrated that the organotin(IV) moieties interact with the {S} atom of the ligand, while the other coordination sites are the carboxylate and the amide –CO groups. Mossbauer Δ data showed that the diorganotin(IV) compounds adopt slightly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal (tbp) geometry. A single-crystal X-ray study was performed on the compound Me 2 Sn(cap): the Sn atom is five-coordinated in a distorted tbp environment, with two {O} atoms in the axial positions and the {S} and two {C} atoms in t…
