C,N‐chelated triorganotin(IV) diesters of 4‐ketopimelic acid and their fungicidal activity

The set of four triorganotin(IV) diesters of 4‐ketopimelic acid containing {2‐[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}‐ as a C,N‐chelating ligand was prepared. Their structures were studied by the help of IR, NMR and X‐ray crystallographic techniques in the case of {{2‐[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}SnPh₂}₂[(OOCCH₂CH₂)₂C?]. All these compounds are monomeric both in solid state and solution with five‐coordinated tin atoms and medium strong intramolecular Sn? N connection. The antimycotical activity of these compound was studied and compared with the triorganotin(IV) derivatives of 4‐ketopimelic acid and antimycotical drugs in clinical use.

S,N‐Chelated organotin(IV) compounds containing 6‐phenylpyridazine‐3‐thiolate ligand—structural,antibacterial and antifungal study

A series of tri‐ and diorganotin(IV) compounds containing potentially chelating S,N‐ligand(s) (L^SN, where L^SN is 6‐phenylpyridazine‐3‐thiolate) were prepared and structurally characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. X‐ray diffraction techniques were used for determination of the structure of compounds containing one [(L^SN)Ph₂SnCl], two [(n‐Bu)₂Sn(L^SN)₂] and the combination of two L^SN and one L^CN [(L^CN)(n‐Bu)Sn(L^SN)₂] (where L^CN is {2‐[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}‐) ligands. The coordination number of the tin atom varies from five to seven and is dependent on the number of chelating ligands present. The formation of the five‐membered azastanna heterocycle is favored over the formation of four‐membered azastannathia heterocycle in compounds containing both types of ligands. The di‐n‐butyl‐substituted compounds are the most efficient ones in inhibition of growth of yeasts, molds and G⁺ bacteria strains. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

π–π stacking motifs in dialkylbis{5‐[(E)‐2‐aryldiazen‐1‐yl]‐2‐hydroxybenzoato}tin(IV) complexes

The diorganotin(IV) complexes of 5‐[(E)‐2‐aryldiazen‐1‐yl]‐2‐hydroxybenzoic acid are of interest because of their structural diversity in the crystalline state and their interesting biological activity. The structures of dimethylbis{2‐hydroxy‐5‐[(E)‐2‐(4‐methylphenyl)diazen‐1‐yl]benzoato}tin(IV), [Sn(CH₃)₂(C₁₄H₁₁N₂O₃)₂], and di‐n‐butylbis{2‐hydroxy‐5‐[(E)‐2‐(4‐methylphenyl)diazen‐1‐yl]benzoato}tin(IV) benzene hemisolvate, [Sn(C₄H₉)₂(C₁₄H₁₁N₂O₃)₂]·0.5C₆H₆, exhibit the usual skew‐trapezoidal bipyramidal coordination geometry observed for related complexes of this class. Each structure has two independent molecules of the Sn^IV complex in the asymmetric unit. In the dimethyltin structure, intermolecular O—H…O hydrogen bonds and a very weak Sn…O interaction link the independent molecules into dimers. The planar carboxylate ligands lend themselves to π–π stacking interactions and the diversity of supramolecular structural motifs formed by these interactions has been examined in detail for these two structures and four closely related analogues. While there are some recurring basic motifs amongst the observed stacking arrangements, such as dimers and step‐like chains, variations through longitudinal slipping and inversion of the direction of the overlay add complexity. The π–π stacking motifs in the two title complexes are combinations of some of those observed in the other structures and are the most complex of the structures examined.     

Di­chloro­bis(3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole‐N2)methyl­phenyl­tin(IV)

The title compound, [SnCl₂(CH₃)(C₆H₅)(C₅H₈N₂)₂], was obtained by reaction of di­chloro­methyl­phenyl­tin(IV) and 3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole (dmpz) in chloro­form, and was recrystallized from acetone. The structure consists of octahedral all‐trans [SnMePhCl₂(dmpz)₂] mol­ecules, with the Sn atom coordinated to two C [Sn—C 2.127 (5) and 2.135 (4) Å], two Cl [Sn—Cl 2.5753 (8) Å] and two N atoms [Sn—N 2.357 (3) Å]. The dmpz ligands, bound to the metal through their unprotonated N atoms, form weak intra‐ and intermolecular hydrogen bonds with the Cl ligands via their NH groups, giving rise to a polymeric chain along the c axis.

Aminostannanes and aminostannylenes containing a C,N-chelated ligand

Aminotin(II and IV) compounds {[(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)(H)N]-μ-(Sn)-Cl}₂, {2-[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}₂Sn[N(H)(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)]₂ and {2-[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}Sn[N(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)(SiMe₃)] were prepared by lithium halide elimination from tin halides and corresponding lithium complexes. [(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)(H)N]Li (1) reacts with one half of molar equivalent of SnCl₂ to give {[(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)(H)N]-μ-(Sn)-Cl}₂. The same lithium amide (1) gave with R₃SnCl corresponding aminostannanes. Further reactions of these compounds with n-butyllithium gave the starting 1 and tetraorganostannanes. {2-[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}₂SnBr₂ reacts with two equivalents of 1 to {2-[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}₂Sn[N(H)(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)]₂. The dimeric heteroleptic stannylene {[(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)(SiMe₃)N](μ₂-Cl)Sn}₂ reacts with 2-[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄Li to the monomeric {2-[(CH₃)₂NCH₂]C₆H₄}Sn[N(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)(SiMe₃)]. The structure in the solid state and in solution and reactivity of products is also discussed. The unique decatin cluster has been isolated by hydrolysis of {[(2,6-i-Pr-C₆H₃)(H)N]-μ-(Sn)-Cl}₂. The structure of some compounds was also evaluated by theoretical DFT methods.     

氮芥苯甲酸氧化二丁基锡复合物的合成、晶体结构及其体外抗癌活性研究

Di-n-butyltin oxide reacted with p-[N,N-bis（2-chloroethyl）amino]benzoic acid to yield the compounds {{4-[（ClCH2CH2）2N]C6H4COOSnBu2}2O}2 （1） and {4-[（ClCH2CH2）2N]C6H4COO}2SnBu2 （2）, which have been characterized by IR and ^1H NMR spectra. The X-ray diffractional studies of 1 reveal the structure of the molecule to be a dimer, in which the two Bu2Sn groups were linked via two bridging oxygen atoms to form a central Bu4Sn2O2 unit. And the tin atom adopts two carbons from two n-butyl groups and three oxygen atoms from the acid and the bridging oxygen. In vitro test showed compound 1 to exhibit high cytotoxicity against P388 and HL-60 cell lines.

Each Sn centre has seven‐coordinate pentagonal–bipyramidal geometry, taking into account two moderately long Sn—O contacts about an inversion centre [2.679 (4) and 2.981 (4) Å]. The methyl groups are in an axial orientation.     

Syntheses and structures of three macrocyclic supramolecular complexes and one ZnII‐containing coordination polymer generated from a semi‐rigid multidentate N‐containing ligand

Semirigid organic ligands can adopt different conformations to construct coordination polymers with more diverse structures when compared to those constructed from rigid ligands. A new asymmetric semirigid organic ligand, 4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine ( L ), has been prepared and used to synthesize three bimetallic macrocyclic complexes and one coordination polymer, namely, bis(μ‐4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine)bis[dichloridozinc(II)] dichloromethane disolvate, [Zn₂Cl₄(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)₂]·2CH₂Cl₂, ( I ), the analogous chloroform monosolvate, [Zn₂Cl₄(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)₂]·CHCl₃, ( II ), bis(μ‐4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine)bis[diiodidozinc(II)] dichloromethane disolvate, [Zn₂I₄(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)₂]·2CH₂Cl₂, ( III ), and catena‐poly[[[diiodidozinc(II)]‐μ‐4‐{2‐[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐2H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl}pyridine] chloroform monosolvate], {[ZnI₂(C₁₂H₁₀N₆)]·CHCl₃}_n, ( IV ), by solution reaction with ZnX₂ (X = Cl and I) in a CH₂Cl₂/CH₃OH or CHCl₃/CH₃OH mixed solvent system at room temperature. Complex ( I ) is isomorphic with complex ( III ) and has a bimetallic ring possessing similar coordination environments for both of the Zn^II cations. Although complex ( II ) also contains a bimetallic ring, the two Zn^II cations have different coordination environments. Under the influence of the I^? anion and guest CHCl₃ molecule, complex ( IV ) displays a significantly different structure with respect to complexes ( I )–( III ). C—H…Cl and C—H…N hydrogen bonds, and π–π stacking or C—Cl…π interactions exist in complexes ( I )–( IV ), and these weak interactions play an important role in the three‐dimensional structures of ( I )–( IV ) in the solid state. In addition, the fluorescence properties of L and complexes ( I )–( IV ) were investigated.     

Dichloro[1,1′‐(5,9‐dithia‐2,12‐diazoniatrideca‐1,12‐diene‐1,13‐diyl)dinaphthalen‐2‐olato‐κ2O,O′]dimethyltin(IV) acetonitrile solvate

Reaction of the potentially hexadentate ligand 1,9‐bis(2‐hydroxy‐1‐naphthalene­methyl­imino)‐3,7‐di­thia­nonane with di­methyl­tin chloride gave the title 1:1 adduct, in which the long ligand wraps around the SnCl₂Me₂ unit and in which the stereochemistry is fully trans. This compound crystallizes from aceto­nitrile as the 1:1 solvate [Sn(CH₃)₂(C₂₉H₃₀N₂­O₂S₂)Cl₂]·­C₂H₃N. During the reaction, the hydroxyl protons move to the N atoms. Most of the chemically equivalent bond lengths agree to within experimental uncertainty, but the Sn—Cl bond that is inside the ligand pocket is substantially longer than the Sn—Cl bond that points away from the long ligand [2.668 (1) versus 2.528 (1) Å]. The O—Sn—O angle is 166.0 (1)°. Comparison of the Sn—O, C—O and aryl C—C bond lengths with those of related compounds shows that the most important resonance forms for the Schiff base aryl­oxide ligand are double zwitterions, but that the uncharged resonance forms having carbonyl groups also contribute significantly.     

catena‐Poly­[[tri‐n‐butyl­tin]‐μ‐N‐(1‐naphthyl)­maleamato]

The crystal structure of catena‐poly­[[tri‐n‐butyl­tin]‐μ‐3‐(1‐naph­thyl­amino­carbonyl)­acrylato‐κ²O¹:O³], [Sn(C₄H₉)₃(C₁₄H₁₀NO₃)]_n, is composed of polymeric chains wherein the metal center exhibits a distorted trigonal‐bipyramidal geometry, with three n‐butyl groups defining the trigonal plane [mean Sn—C 2.133 (7) Å] and the axial positions being occupied by the carboxyl­ate O atoms of two different N‐(1‐naphthyl)­maleamate ligands with inequivalent Sn—O distances [2.167 (4) and 2.457 (4) Å]. The N‐(1‐naphthyl)­maleamate fragment forms an essentially planar seven‐membered ring involving an intramolecular N—H?O hydrogen bond.     

Crystal and Molecular Structure of [2,6‐(Me2NCH2)2C6H3]2SnF2, an Intramolecularly Coordinated Diorganotin Difluoride

Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis of [2,6‐(Me₂NCH₂)₂C₆H₃]₂SnF₂ reveals that only one of the two dimethylaminomethyl groups of each pincer‐type ligands [2,6‐(CH₂NMe₂)₂C₆H₃]^? is coordinated to the tin atom at Sn‐N distances of 2.576(2) and 2.470(2) Å, inducing chirality of the latter. The tin atom exhibits a distorted octahedral trans(C,C)cis(N,N)cis(F,F) configuration. Extensive intra‐ and intermolecular C‐H···F hydrogen bonding is observed with the latter giving rise to formation of polymeric chains.     

Intramolecular interactions in μ‐oxido‐bis{bis[2‐(dimethylaminomethyl)phenyl]stannol}

The title compound, [Sn₂(C₉H₁₂N)₄O(OH)₂], consists of two [2‐(Me₂NCH₂)C₆H₄]₂SnOH units bridged by an O atom located on a twofold rotation axis. The unique Sn atom is six‐coordinated with a (C,N)₂SnO₂ octahedral core, as a result of the strong intramolecular N→Sn dative coordination trans to the Sn—O bonds [N—Sn—O = 170.24 (12) and 167.83 (10)°]. Owing to the presence of intermolecular H...phenyl contacts, the molecules are arranged in a ladder‐like structure.     

A 1:1 adduct between di­methyl­tin dibromide and N‐methyl­pyrrolidinone (NMP)

The title compound, di­bromo­di­methyl(N‐methyl­pyrrolidin‐2‐one‐O)­tin(IV), [SnBr₂(CH₃)₂(C₅H₉NO)], exhibits pentacoordination of the Sn atom, with long and short Sn—Br bonds [2.6737 (4) and 2.5256 (4) Å, respectively]. The distorted trigonal–bipyramidal coordination polyhedron has two methyl groups and one Br atom in the equatorial plane, the second Br atom and the N‐methyl­pyrrolidinone (NMP) ligand occupying the apical positions.     

Organoselenium compounds containing pyrazole or phenylthiazole groups: Synthesis,structure, tin(IV) complexes and antiproliferative activity

The diorganodiselenides (pzCH₂CH₂)₂Se₂ ( 1 ) and (PhtzCH₂)₂Se₂ ( 2 ) were prepared by reacting Na₂Se₂ with 1‐(2‐bromoethyl)‐1H‐pyrazole and 4‐(chloromethyl)‐2‐phenylthiazole, respectively, while the reactions between 1‐(2‐bromoethyl)‐1H‐pyrazole or 4‐(chloromethyl)‐2‐phenylthiazole and the lithium organoselenolates [2‐(Et₂NCH₂)C₆H₄]SeLi and [2‐{O(CH₂CH₂)₂NCH₂}C₆H₄]SeLi in a 1:1 molar ratio resulted in the heteroleptic diorganoselenium(II) compounds [2‐(Et₂NCH₂)C₆H₄](R)Se (R = pzCH₂CH₂ ( 3 ) or PhtzCH₂ ( 5 )) and [2‐{O(CH₂CH₂)₂NCH₂}C₆H₄](R)Se (R = pzCH₂CH₂ ( 4 ) or PhtzCH₂ ( 6 )). The diorganotin(IV) bis(organoselenolato) derivatives of type R₂Sn(SeCH₂CH₂pz)₂ (R = 2‐(Me₂NCH₂)C₆H₄ ( 7 ) or Me ( 8 )) were obtained by reacting (pzCH₂CH₂)SeNa with the appropriate diorganotin(IV)dichloride in a 2:1 molar ratio. All compounds were investigated using NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ¹³C, ⁷⁷Se, ¹¹⁹Sn as appropriate) and ESI+ mass spectrometry. The molecular structures of 2 and 6 were determined using single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The formation of a 10–Se–3 hypercoordinated species was evidenced for 6 in the solid state, as a consequence of the C,N coordination behaviour of the 2‐{O(CH₂CH₂)₂NCH₂}C₆H₄ group. Compounds 1 , 7 and 8 were investigated for their antiproliferative activity towards the mouse colon carcinoma C26 cell line with the preliminary results showing a better activity than 5‐fluorouracil.     

The chloro­(diethyl­amino)­di­methyl­tin dimer

The title compound, di‐μ‐diethyl­amido‐N:N‐bis­[chloro­di­methyl­tin(IV)], consists of discrete [Sn₂Cl₂(CH₃)₄(C₄H₁₀N)₂] dimer mol­ecules, with Sn atoms linked by bridging diethyl­amido groups. The coordination geometry about the metal atom is distorted trigonal bipyramidal, with the two methyl C atoms and one N atom in the equatorial plane, and the Cl and second N atom in axial positions.     

Diimido‐, Imido(oxo)‐, Dioxo‐ und Imido(alkyliden)‐Halbsandwich‐Verbindungen über selektive Hydrolyse und α—H‐Abstraktion an Organylkomplexen des sechswertigen Molybdäns und Wolframs

Diimido, Imido Oxo, Dioxo, and Imido Alkylidene Halfsandwich Compounds via Selective Hydrolysis and α—H Abstraction in Molybdenum(VI) and Tungsten(VI) Organyl Complexes Organometal imides [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)₂Ph] (M = Mo, W, R = H, Me, R′ = Mes, tBu) 4 — 8 can be prepared by reaction of halfsandwich complexes [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)₂Cl] with phenyl lithium in good yields. Starting from phenyl complexes 4 — 8 as well as from previously described methyl compounds [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)₂Me] (M = Mo, W), reactions with aqueous HCl lead to imido(oxo) methyl and phenyl complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)(O)(R)] M = Mo, R = Me ( 9 ), Ph ( 10 ); M = W, R = Ph ( 11 ) and dioxo complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(O)₂(CH₃)] M = Mo ( 12 ), M = W ( 13 ). Hydrolysis of organometal imides with conservation of M‐C σ and π bonds is in fact an attractive synthetic alternative for the synthesis of organometal oxides with respect to known strategies based on the oxidative decarbonylation of low valent alkyl CO and NO complexes. In a similar manner, protolysis of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)W(NtBu)₂(CH₃)] and [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Mo(NtBu)₂(CH₃)] by HCl gas leads to [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)W(NtBu)Cl₂(CH₃)] 14 und [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Mo(NtBu)Cl₂(CH₃)] 15 with conservation of the M‐C bonds. The inert character of the relatively non‐polar M‐C σ bonds with respect to protolysis offers a strategy for the synthesis of methyl chloro complexes not accessible by partial methylation of [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)Cl₃] with MeLi. As pure substances only trimethyl compounds [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NtBu)(CH₃)₃] 16 ‐ 18 , M = Mo, W, R = H, Me, are isolated. Imido(benzylidene) complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)(CHPh)(CH₂Ph)] M = Mo ( 19 ), W ( 20 ) are generated by alkylation of [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)Cl₃] with PhCH₂MgCl via α‐H abstraction. Based on nmr data a trend of decreasing donor capability of the ligands [NtBu]^2— > [O]^2— > [CHR]^2— ? 2 [CH₃]^— > 2 [Cl]^— emerges.
