Tris(dialkylamino)phosphine Chalcogenide Complexes of Tin(IV) Chloride: A Multinuclear (31P, 77Se,and 119Sn) NMR Characterization

Abstract

Four octahedral complexes of the type SnCl₄.2L [L = (R₂N)₃P(E): E = Se; R = Me(1), Et(2) and E = S; R = Me(3), Et(4)] have been studied in solution by multinuclear (³¹P, ⁷⁷Se, and ¹¹⁹Sn) NMR spectroscopy. ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se NMR data were informative of changes associated with complex formation. The solution structure of the complexes was confirmed by their ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra that showed two triplet features for each complex, attributed to a mixture of the expected cis and trans isomers. The triplet signal is due to the coupling with two equivalent phosphorus atoms, consistent with an octahedral geometry around the tin center. In addition, density functional theory (DFT)/B3LYP calculations have been carried out to support the interpretations of NMR data. The results are discussed and compared with those reported for related complexes.

Tin(IV) Complexes of 1,5-Diphenylthiocarbazone and Thiosemicarbazide: Synthesis,X-Ray Characterization,and Biological Activity

Abstract

The reaction of Me₂SnCl₂ with dithizone or thiosemicarbazide produced two novel di-organotin derivatives in good yields, which were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The crystal structures show that the compounds present a distorted pentacoordinated tin(IV) metal center. The antimicrobial activity of the new compounds was studied against Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Salmonella enteritidis) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria, and the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It was observed that the coordination of tin metal has a pronounced effect on the microbial activities of the ligands. All the tin complexes have shown higher antimicrobial effect than the free ligands.

Synthesis,Characterization, and Antibacterial Activity of Diorganotin(IV) Complexes of 4-Methylphenol

Abstract

Diorganotin(IV) complexes R₂Sn(OC₆H₄Me-4)₂ (R = Ph, Me, and n-Bu) have been synthesized in good yields by the reaction of Ph₂SnCl_2, n-Bu₂SnCl₂, and Me₂SnCl₂ with NaOC₆H₄Me-4, while complex n-Bu₂SnCl(OC₆H₄Me-4) has been obtained from the reaction of n-Bu₂SnCl₂ with 4-methylphenol in the presence of triethylamine in carbon tetrachloride. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, molecular weight determination, IR, ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopy as well as by mass spectrometry. The reactions of the complexes with 2- and 3-cyanoanilines yielded 1:2 coordination compounds authenticated by physicochemical as well as by IR, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopic data. The bases behaved as monodentate ligands wherein 2-cyanoaniline is bonded through nitrile nitrogen atom, while 3-cyanoaniline is coordinated through amino nitrogen atom. The diorganotin(IV) complexes have also been screened for their antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Shigella flexneri, Proteus mirabilis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The minimum inhibitory concentration values of these complexes show enhanced activity.

Monophenylantimony(III) Derivatives of Cyclic Dithiocarbamates; Synthesis,Spectroscopic Characterization,and Antimicrobial Study

Abstract

Some new monophenylantimony(III) compounds having the formulas have been synthesized by reaction of phenylantimony(III) dichloride with the sodium salt of cyclic dithiocarbamates in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratios. These newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurements, and their plausible structures have been proposed on the basis of IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C), and ESI-mass studies. Sodium salts of cyclic dithiocarbamates and their corresponding organoantimony(III) derivatives (1–8) have been screened for antimicrobial activity against E. coli, P. aeruginosa (Bacteria) and A. niger and A. flavus (Fungi).     

Syntheses,Reactions, Characterization,and Antifungal Activities of Chloro-bis-(2,2-dithio-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane/dioxaphosphorinane)bismuth(III)

Abstract

Chloro-bis(2,2-dithio-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane/dioxaphosphorinane)bismuth(III) compounds have been synthesized by the reaction of bismuth trichloride with sodium 2,2-dithio-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane/dioxaphosphorinane in 1:2 molar ratio in benzene solution. Reactions of these chloro-bis(2,2-dithio-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane/dioxaphosphorinane)-bismuth(III) compounds with sodium tetraisopropoxyborate in equimolar ratio in benzene solution yield the corresponding heterobinuclear bismuth derivatives with boron. All compounds were characterized by elemental analyses and molecular weight measurements. Plausible structures are proposed on the basis of IR and ¹H, ¹¹B, ¹³C, and ³¹P spectroscopic studies. 2-Mercapto-2-thioxo-1,3,2-dioxaphospholanes-/dioxaphosphorinanes and the corresponding chloro-bis(2,2-dithio-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane/dioxaphosphorinane)bismuth (III) compounds show antifungal activities against Fusarium and Trichoderma.

Hexa-Coordinated Silicon Complexes Derived from Regioisomeric Aminotriphenylethanols and Their use as Dopants for Liquid Crystals

Abstract

Tridentate imine ligands that are obtained from the chiral, regioisomeric amino alcohols 2-amino-1,1,2-triphenyethanol and 2-amino-1,2,2-triphenylethanol serve for the formation of bis-chelated silicon complexes. Whereas the complex based on the former amino alcohol is obtained as a diastereomeric mixture, the complex that is derived from 2-amino-1,2,2-triphenylethanol forms in a completely diastereoselective manner, and its configuration is determined as (A,R,R), according to a crystal structure analysis. The new silicon complexes are found to be efficient dopants for the conversion of nematic liquid crystals into cholesteric phases.

Synthesis and Characterization of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Mn(II), and Cd(II) Transition Metal Complexes of Tridentate Schiff Base Derived from O-Vanillin and N-Aminopyrimidine-2-Thione

Abstract

Monobasic tridentate Schiff base ligand having ONS donor sequence was prepared by condensing N-aminopyrimidine-2-thione with o-vanillin. The complexes were formed by reacting ligand and the metal acetates of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Mn(II), and Cd(II) in methanol to get a series of mononuclear and dinuclear complexes. The characterization of ligand and metal complexes were carried out by elemental analyses, conductivity measurements, magnetic susceptibility data, FTIR, UV-vis, NMR, and API-ES mass spectral data. The structure of the complexes was confirmed on the basis of elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility, API-ES mass spectral data and thermal gravitational analysis (TGA).

Coordination Chemistry and Spectroscopic Properties of Some Diorganotin(IV) Complexes with S-Donor Schiff Base Ligands

Abstract

Schiff bases S-benzyl- and S-methyl-β-N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylene dithiocarbazate (H₂L¹ and H₂L², respectively) and S-benzyl- and S-methyl-β-N-(2-chlorophenyl)methylenedithiocarbazate (HL³ and HL⁴, respectively) were prepared. Then organotin(IV) complexes [SnPh₂(L¹)] (1), [SnMe₂(L¹)] (2), [SnPh₂(L²)] (3), [SnMe₂(L²)] (4), [SnPh₂Cl(L³)] (5), and [SnPh₂Cl(L⁴)] (6) were obtained from the reaction of Schiff bases with SnR₂Cl₂ (R = Ph and Me). The synthesized complexes have been investigated by elemental analysis and IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopy. Spectroscopic studies show that, in complexes 1–4, the Schiff base acts as a tridentate dianionic ligand and coordinates through the thiol group, imine nitrogen, and phenolic oxygen. The coordination number of tin is five. In complexes 5 and 6, the ligand is monoanionic and unidentate, and coordinated only via the thiol group, and the azomethine nitrogen is not involved in coordination to tin. Therefore the coordination number of tin is four.
