Syntheses,Spectroscopic Properties and Crystal Structures of (2-Cl-C6H4CH2)3SnS2CN(C5H10) and (2-Cl-C6H4CH2)3SnS2CN(C4H9N)

Two tri(2-chlorobenzyl)tin(IV) complexes with dithiocarbamate ligands (2-Cl- C6H4CH2)3SnS2CN(C5H10) 1 and (2-Cl-C6H4CH2)3SnS2CN(C4H9N) 2 have been synthesized by the reaction of tri(2-chlorobenzyl)tin(IV) chloride with dithiocarbamates and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and 1H NMR. The crystal structures were determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The crystal of complex 1 belongs to triclinic, space group P with a = 9.121(5), b = 10.788(6), c = 15.549(8) ? a = 77.812(6), b = 88.279(8), g = 72.023(6)o, Z = 2, V = 1421.5(13) ?, Dc = 1.532 g/cm3, ?= 1.344 mm-1, F(000) = 660, R = 0.0382 and wR = 0.0984; and that of complex 2 is of monoclinic, space group P21/n with a = 13.892(10), b = 2.1274(8), c = 2.0553(15) ? b = 107.145(11)o, Z = 4, V = 2726(3) ?, Dc = 1.600 g/cm3, ?= 1.403 mm-1, F(000) = 1320, R = 0.0361 and wR = 0.0826. Their structures show a distorted trigonal bipyramidal configuration with five- coordination for the central tin atoms.
