Organotin(IV) complexes with tetraethyl ethylene- and propylene-diphosphonates

The series of organotin halide complexes with tetraethyl ethylene- and propylene-diphosphonates R n SnX 4-n .L [n=0, X=Cl; n=1, R=Me, X=Cl, Br; n=1, R=Ph, X=Cl; n=2 R=Me, Et, Bu, X=Cl, Br; n=2, R=Ph, X=Cl; L=(EtO) 2 P(O)CH 2 CHR'P(O)(OEt) 2 , R'=H, Me] were synthesized and characterized by means of NMR and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The crystal structure of the complex of diphenyltin dichloride with propylenediphosphonate was determined. The complex consists of polymer chains with bridging bidentate ligands and an octahedral tin environment containing two types of phosphoryl fragments. All of the R 2 SnX 2 adducts have trans-R 2 SnX 4 geometries of tin coordination octahedra according to the q…

Tin(IV) complexes with O-ethyl(N-ethyl-N,N-dimethylammoniomethyl)phosphonate

Abstract O,O-Diethyl-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl)phosphonate undergoes ethyl migration leading to O-ethyl-(N-ethyl-N,N-dimethylammoniomethyl)phosphonate (L). Several new complexes of tin(IV) and organotin(IV) chlorides with the title ligand have been synthesized. The stoichiometry of the obtained complexes is as follows: (R3SnCl)2 · L (R=Me, Bu, Ph), R2SnCl2 · L (R=Me, Bu, Ph), RSnCl3 L (R=Me, Ph) and SnCl4 · L. All the complexes have been studied in solution by means of 1H-, 13C-, 31P- and 119Sn-NMR spectroscopy. Their solid state structures have been investigated by means of Mossbauer spectroscopy and the molecular structure of the complex (Ph3SnCl)2 · L has been determined by X-ray crystall…
