Organometallic complexes with biological molecules. XI. Solid state and in vivo investigations of some diorganotin(IV)-chloramphenicol and cycloserine derivatives

Abstract Diorganotin(IV) derivatives of chloramphenicol, {=D-(-)threo-2,2-dichloro-N-[ β -hydroxy- α -(hydroxymethyl)- β -(4-nitrophenyl)ethyl]acetamide (=Hchloramph)}, and D-cycloserine, {=(R)-4-amino-3-isoxazolidone [=Hcyclos]} have been prepared. The stoichiometries of the obtained compounds were R 2 SnClantib and R 2 Snantib 2 (antib −1 =chloramph −1 , R=methyl and phenyl; antib −1 =cyclos −1 , R=methyl). The solid state configuration of the complexes was investigated by I.R. and Mossbauer spectroscopy, from which structural hypotheses were inferred. In particular, the experimental data suggested monomer structures both for R 2 Sn(IV)Clchloramph and R 2 Sn(IV)chloramph 2 , in which chlo…

Organometallic complexes with biological molecules. X: dialkyltin(IV) and trialkyltin(IV) orotates: spectroscopic andin vivo investigations

Several novel diorgano- and triorgano-tin(IV) derivatives of orotic acid, (2,6-dihydroxypyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid; H 3 or) have been synthesized. In the diorganotin(IV) derivatives, the orotic acid behaved either as a monoanionic or as a dianionic ligand, yielding R 2 Sn(H 2 or) 2 and R 2 SnHor (R = Me, Bu) species, respectively, while in the triorganotin(IV) orotates only monodeprotonation of the orotic acid occurred, giving R 3 SnH 2 or (R = Me, Bu) derivatives. Structural hypotheses are proposed and discussed for the solid state based on Mossbauer and IR spectroscopic data, and for solution on 1 H and 1 C NMR results. Finally, investigations have been carried out in vivo, showing the …
