Aqueous solution chemistry of alkyltin(IV) compounds for speciation studies in biological fluids and natural waters
2012
Abstract Organotin(IV) cations behave as Lewis acids of different strength depending on the charge, according to the following acidity scale: RSn3+ > R2Sn2+ > R3Sn+. For this reason they can react with Lewis bases containing –O, –N, –S donor groups to form complex species of different stability. Complex formation of organotin(IV) moieties with a great number of inorganic and organic ligands in aqueous solution is reviewed here in the light of their environmental and biological impact. To this end, complex species formation was considered in different ionic media and at different ionic strengths, with reference to the composition of natural waters and biological fluids. In particular, the in…
