Comparative structural and fungicidal studies of Mono-methyl phthalate and its Tin(IV) derivatives

The results of an investigation into the fungicidal properties of some organotin(IV) compounds with Mono-methyl phthalate are reported. The compounds were characterized by various spectroscopic techniques including ¹H-¹³C-¹¹⁹Sn-NMR, FT-IR, and ¹¹⁹Sn Mössbauer studies. On the basis of these techniques, all the complexes show penta coordination with a trigonal bipyramidal environment around the tin. The synthesized compounds were tested against a number of plant pathogenic fungi. The fungicidal data reveal that the tri-phenyltin(IV) compound proves to be a powerful fungicide. Comparison between the fungicidal activity of the trialkyltin(IV) compounds shows that the tri-phenyl tin(IV) complex is most active against all plant pathogens; the rest of the complexes also exhibit significant antifungal activity but less than the former one.     

13C and 119Sn NMR spectra of some tribenzyltin(IV) compounds

The ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra of some tribenzyltin(IV) compounds and their complexes in coordinating and non-coordinating solvents have been studied. The δ(¹¹⁹Sn) chemical shifts and coupling constants ¹J(¹¹⁹Sn, ¹³C) clearly depend on the coordination number of the central tin atom and the geometry of its coordination polyhedra. Approximate ranges of the characteristic values of both the NMR parameters were determined for various configurational types of tribenzyltin compound. The ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR parameters found are indicative of a distinct interaction between the polarized σ(SnC) bond and adjacent π-electron system of the aromatic ring(s).

Various spectrophotometric studies were carried out to decipher the binding mode of MESNA and its diorganotin complexes 1 ‐ 5 with calf thymus DNA (CT DNA) and thus, to calculate the binding constant (K_b). Absorption spectrophotometric study confirmed the interaction is through partial intercalation of all the complexes including MESNA, inside the DNA helix and calculated binding constant (K_b) is in the order of 10³ M^‐1. A series of emission spectrophotometric experiments support the results obtained through the absorption spectrophotometric studies.

Ligational behavior of thiosemicarbazone,semicarbazone and thiocarbohydrazone ligands towards VO(IV), Ce(III), Th(IV) and UO2(VI) ions: Synthesis,structural characterization and biological studies

Mono- and binuclear VO(IV), Ce(III), Th(IV) and UO₂(VI) complexes of thiosemicarbazone, semicarbazone and thiocarbohydrazone ligands derived from 4,6-diacetylresorcinol were synthesized. The structures of these complexes were elucidated by elemental analyses, IR, UV–vis, ESR, ¹H NMR and mass spectra as well as conductivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements and thermal analyses. The thiosemicarbazone (H₄L¹) and the semicarbazone (H₄L²) ligands behave as dibasic pentadentate ligands in case of VO(IV) and UO₂(VI) complexes, tribasic pentadentate in case of Ce(III) complexes and monobasic pentadentate in case of Th(IV) complexes. However, the thiocarbohydrazone ligand (H₃L³) acts as a monobasic tridentate ligand in all complexes except the VO(IV) complex in which it acts as a dibasic tridentate ligand. The antibacterial and antifungal activities were also tested against Rhizobium bacteria and Fusarium-Oxysporium fungus. The metal complexes of H₄L¹ ligand showed a higher antibacterial effect than the free ligand while the other ligands (H₄L² and H₃L³) showed a higher effect than their metal complexes. The antifungal effect of all metal complexes is lower than the free ligands.

Structural studies on organotin(IV) complexes formed with ligands containing {S,N,O} donor atoms

A number of complexes of ligands containing {O,N,S} donor atoms (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-b-D-thioglucopyranoside, 1-thio-b-D-glucose, 2-aminomercaptopurine, 4-amino-2-mercaptopyrimidine and 2-amino-6-mercaptopurine-9-D-riboside) with di-n-butyltin(IV) oxide, diphenyltin(IV) oxide, tribenzyltin(IV) chloride, and trimethyltin(IV) chloride were prepared in the solid state. It was found that the complexes contain the organotin(IV) moiety and the ligand in a ratio of 1:1 or 2:1. The FTIR and Raman spectra clearly demonstrated that the organotin(IV) moieties react with the {S} atom of the ligands, while di-n-butyltin(IV) oxide is coordinated to the deprotonated hydroxy group. In several cases, the basic part of the ligands also participates in complex formation. Comparison of the experimental Mössbauer D values with those calculated on the basis of the pqs concept revealed that the organotin(IV) moiety has trigonal-bipyramidal geometry, and in certain cases tetrahedral geometry too. Some of the complexes contain the organotin(IV) cation in two different surroundings.
