Synthesis and structures of some diorganotin bis(hydroxamate)s
Analysis of literature data on the antitumor activity of organotin compounds reveals that R2SnX2 and their complexes containing SnO, SnN or SnS bonds often exhibit biological activity, especially if such bonds are formed by means of intramolecular coordination. Furthermore, a wide range of biological activities, from fungicidal, bactericidal and antiseptic to psychotropic and antitumor, is found to be characteristic for some organic hydroxamic acids (N-acylhydroxylamines). From this point of view the diorgantion bis-hydroxamates in this paper are of particular interest as potential biologically active antitumor drugs. Di-n-butyltin bis(N-methyl-N-p-bromobenzoylhydroxylamine) is being screen…
Syntheses and Solid-State Structures of Some Dialkyltin Derivatives of ?-Methoxy- and ?-Acetoxy-phenylacetic Acids
Several di-n-butyltin and diethyltin biscarboxylates and distannoxanes of α-methoxy- and α-acetoxy-phenylacetic acids were synthesized and (two of) their structures were studied by means of X-ray diffraction analysis as well as by means of IR and Mossbauer spectroscopies. It was shown for {[(n-Bu) 2 - SnOC(O)CH(OMe)Ph] 2 O} 2 that there is an interaction between the OMe group and one of the endocyclic tin atoms, resulting in a distorted pentagonal-bipyramidal geometry with the pentagonal plane defined by five O atoms and an uncommon seven coordination number for this tin atom. Spectral data indicate that biscarboxylates have trans-octahedral structures.
