Coordination properties of adenosine-5'-monophosphate and related ligands towards Me2Sn(IV)2+ in aqueous solution.

Abstract The coordination of Me 2 Sn(IV) 2+ to adenosine-5′-monophosphate (AMP) and the related compounds d -ribose-5-phosphate (R5P), d -glucose-1-phosphate (G1P) and d -glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) in aqueous solution was investigated by means of potentiometric titration, and 1 H-, 31 P-NMR and Mossbauer spectroscopic methods in the pH range 2–11 ( I =0.1 M NaClO 4 , 298 K). The complex of AMP and Me 2 Sn(IV) 2+ precipitated at low pH was characterised by elemental analysis, FT-IR and Mossbauer spectroscopic methods. From a comparison of the p K values obtained in the presence and absence of metal ion and the stability constants for the different systems, the coordination of {N} is excluded,…

Preparation and XAFS studies of organotin(IV) complexes with adenosine and related compounds and calf thymus DNA

Complexes of adenosine and related compounds (adenosine-5’-monophosphate, adenosine-5’-triphosphate and pyridoxal-5-phosphate) with Bu2SnO and/or BuSnCl2 were prepared in the solid state. The compositions of the complexes were determined by standard analytical methods. It was found that the complexes contain the organotin(IV) moiety and the ligand in a ratio of 1:1. The FT-IR spectra demonstrated that Bu2SnO reacts with the D-ribose moiety of the ligands, while Bu2SnCl2 is coordinated to the deprotonated phosphate group. The basic part of the ligands does not participate directly in complex formation. Comparison of the experimental Mossbauer Δ (quadrupole splitting) values with those calcul…

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…

Coordination properties of the ACE inhibitor captopril towards Me2Sn(IV)2+ in aqueous solution, and biological aspects of some dialkyltin(IV) derivatives of this ligand

Abstract The coordination of Me 2 Sn(IV) 2+ (M) to captopril { N -[( S )-3-mercapto-2-methylpropionyl]- l -proline, H 2 (cap), H 2 L} in aqueous solution was studied by means of potentiometric titration, electrospray mass spectrometry, 1 H-NMR spectroscopy and Mossbauer spectroscopy in the pH range 2–11 ( I =0.1 mol dm −3 NaClO 4 , 298 K). The results obtained with these methods proved that only monomeric complexes are formed in solution. In the acidic pH range, species with a metal-to-ligand ratio of 1:1 exist. The neutral complex ML, similarly to the complex Me 2 Sn(cap) crystallized in the same pH range, adopts a tbp structure with eq S − and ax COO − , while, instead of the coordina…
