Complexation and thermogravimetric investigation on tin(II) and tin(IV) with norfloxacin as antibacterial agent

The interaction of tin(II) and tin(IV) chlorides with norfloxacin (NOR) has been investigated. Elemental analysis, infrared, mass spectra and thermal analysis have been used to characterize the isolated solid complexes. The results support the formation of complexes with the formula [Sn(NOR)₂]Cl₂·4H₂O and [Sn(NOR)₃]Cl₄. The infrared spectra of the isolated solid complexes suggested that NOR act as bidentate ligand through the carbonyl oxygen atom and one oxygen atom of the carboxylic group forming six-membered rings with the tin ions. The interpretation, mathematical analysis and evaluation of kinetic parameters of thermogravimetric (TGA) and its differential (DTG), such as entropy of activation, pre-exponential factors, activation energy evaluated by using Coats–Redfern and Horowitz–Metzger equations are carried out for two complexes. The data obtained indicate that the two complexes decompose in one stage and general mechanisms describing the decomposition are suggested. Furthermore, the electronic, and ¹H?NMR spectra have been studied.     

A Novel Tetranuclear Organotin(IV) Carboxylate with Chain Structure: Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Characterizations

A new tetranuclear organotin carboxylate {[(n‐Bu₂SnO)₂L]₂}_n (complex 1 ) was synthesized by the reaction of di‐n‐butyltin oxide with (p‐carboxymethoxy‐phenoxy) acetic acid (LH₂) and characterized by elemental analyses: IR, UV–visible, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X‐ray study. X‐ray crystallography diffraction data revealed that the complex 1 was polymeric fashion with a chain structure containing a ladder‐like tetranuclear organo‐oxotin cluster. In the complex 1 , the ligand LH₂ is coordinated to the central tin(IV) atoms via the carboxylato‐O atoms. The tetranuclear tin system is formed by the bridges through the carbonyl oxygen atom of the carboxylate moieties and making the tin atom of pentacoordinated in distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Single crystal X‐ray data indicate that the complex 1 crystallized in the cubic system with the space group C₂/c.

Synthesis and characterization of tin(IV)/organotin(IV) complexes with 2-benzoylpyridine-N(4)-cyclohexylthiosemicarbazone [HBPCT]: X-ray crystal structure of [SnCl3(BPCT)]

Four new tin(IV)/organotin(IV) complexes, [SnCl₃(BPCT)] (2), [MeSnCl₂(BPCT)] (3), [Me₂SnCl(BPCT)] (4), and [Ph₂SnCl(BPCT)] (5), have been synthesized by the direct reaction of 2-benzoylpyridine-N(4)-cyclohexylthiosemicarbazone [HBPCT, (1)] and stannic chloride/organotin(IV) chloride(s) in absolute methanol under purified nitrogen. HBPCT and its tin(IV)/organotin(IV) complexes (2–5) were characterized by CHN analyses, molar conductivity, UV-Vis, FT-IR, and ¹H NMR spectral studies. In all the complexes, tin(IV) was coordinated via pyridine-N, azomethine-N, and thiolato-S from 1. The molecular structure of 2 has been determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis. Complex 2 is a monomer and the central tin(IV) is six-coordinate in a distorted octahedral geometry. The crystal system of 2 is monoclinic with space group P121/n1 and the unit cell dimensions are a?=?8.3564(3)?Å, b?=?23.1321(8)?Å, c?=?11.9984(4)?Å.

Polysulfonylamines. CXVI. Destructive Complexation of the Dimeric Diorganyltin(IV) Hydroxide [Me₂Sn(A)(μ‐OH)]₂ (HA = Benzene‐1,2‐disulfonimide): Formation and Structures of the Mononuclear Complexes [Me₂Sn(A)₂(OPPh₃)₂] and [Me₂Sn(phen)₂]^2⊕ · 2 A^⊖ · MeCN Destructive complexation of the dimeric hydroxide [Me₂Sn(A)(μ‐OH)]₂, where A^⊖ is deprotonated benzene‐1,2‐disulfonimide, with two equivalents of triphenylphosphine oxide or 1,10‐phenanthroline in hot MeCN produced, along with Me₂SnO and water, the novel coordination compounds [Me₂Sn(A)₂(OPPh₃)₂] ( 3 , triclinic, space group P 1) and [Me₂Sn(phen)₂]^2⊕ · 2 A^⊖ · MeCN ( 4 , monoclinic, P2₁/c). In the uncharged all‐trans octahedral complex 3 , the heteroligands are unidentally O‐bonded to the tin atom, which resides on a crystallographic centre of inversion [Sn–O(S) 227.4(2), Sn–O(P) 219.6(2) pm, cis‐angles in the range 87–93°; anionic ligand partially disordered over two equally populated sites for N, two S and non‐coordinating O atoms]. The cation occurring in the crystal of 4 has a severely distorted cis‐octahedral C₂N₄ coordination geometry around tin and represents the first authenticated example of a dicationic tin(IV) dichelate [R₂Sn(L–L′)₂]^2⊕ to adopt a cis‐structure [C–Sn–C 108.44(11)°]. The five‐membered chelate rings are nearly planar, with similar bite angles of the bidentate ligands, but unsymmetric Sn–N bond lengths, each of the longer bonds being trans to a methyl group [ring 1: N–Sn–N 71.24(7)°, Sn–N 226.81(19) and 237.5(2) pm; ring 2: 71.63(7)°, 228.0(2) and 232.20(19) pm]. In both structures, the bicyclic and effectively C_S symmetric A^⊖ ions have their five‐membered rings distorted into an envelope conformation, with N atoms displaced by 28–43 pm from the corresponding C₆S₂ mean plane.

The complexes are characterized by conductimetry and by Mössbauer, IR, and Raman spectroscopy.     

Untersuchungen über Zinn(IV)-alkoxide. I Kristall- und Molekülstruktur des Zinn(IV)-isopropanolat-Isopropanolsolvats,Sn(OiPr)4 · i-PrOH

Investigations into Tin(IV) Alkoxides. I. Crystal and Molecular Structure of Tin(IV)-isopropoxide-Isopropanol Solvate, Sn(OⁱPr)₄ · i-PrOH The isopropanol complex of tin(IV)-isopropoxide has been prepared by the reaction of tin tetrachloride with sodium isopropoxide. The compound forms colourless, moisture sensitive crystals, which in dry air easily release the coordinated solvent molecules. The crystal and molecular structure of Sn(OⁱPr)₄ · i-PrOH has been determinated by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 1174.2(5), b = 1428.5(3), c = 1234.1(3) pm, β = 95.37(1)° and Z = 4. The crystal structure consists of discrete, dimeric molecules in which the two tin atoms are bridged by two alkoxide groups. The octahedral coordination sphere of each tin atom is completed by one solvent molecule which, in addition, forms one hydrogen bridge to an alkoxide group of the neighboring tin atom.     

Synthesis and structure of dithizonato complexes of antimony(III), copper(II) and tin(IV)

In view of the important role of dithizone in trace metal analyses, new structural aspects and approaches used to probe metal complexes of dithizone are of interest. Three X-ray diffraction structures are reported, dichloridobis(dithizonato)tin(IV), dichlorido(dithizonato)antimony(III), and bis(dithizonato)copper(II). During synthesis of the tin complex, auto-oxidation of Sn^IICl₂ to Sn^IV occurred without chloride liberation. The Sb^III complex revealed a unique distorted see-saw geometry which is, as for the other complexes, predicted by DFT molecular orbital calculations. The computed products of the lowest energy reactions are in agreement with experimentally obtained reaction products, which, together with molecular orbital renderings serve as a tool toward prediction of modes of coordination in these complexes. The S–M–N bond angle in the five-membered coordination ring shows a linear relationship with the corresponding metal ionic radii.     

Organotin(IV) azepane dithiocarbamates: Synthesis and characterization of the first organotin(IV) complexes with seven-membered cyclic dithiocarbamates

Abstract

We report the synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of the first organotin(IV) complexes with cyclic seven-membered dithiocarbamate ligands: the azepane-1-carbodithioate and the homopiperazine-1,4-bis-carbodithioate with two different organotin entities, di-n-butyltin and tri-cyclohexyltin: [(C₄H₉)₂Sn{S₂CN(CH₂)₆}₂] (3), [(C₆H₁₁)₃Sn{S₂CN(CH₂)₆}] (4), and [(C₆H₁₁)₃Sn}₂ (μ-S₂CN(C₅H₁₀)NCS₂)] (5). Compounds (3–5) are air-stable both in solid-state and in solution, and were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, FAB⁺–MS, and multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn) spectroscopy. Their molecular structures were unambiguously established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The geometrical arrangement around the tin atom can be described as distorted octahedral for (3) and distorted trigonal bipyramid for (4) and (5). The coordination mode for both ligands is considered as asymmetric bidentate, as happens in other organotin(IV) dithiocarbamates. Furthermore, (4) and (5) do not exhibit intermolecular secondary interactions, while (3) presents intermolecular interactions between the tin and a sulfur atom with the reciprocally neighboring molecule, giving rise to a zig-zag polymeric structure.     

Penta- and heptacoordinated tin(IV) compounds derived from pyridine Schiff bases and 2-pyridine carboxylate: Synthesis and structural characterization

The synthesis of the Sn(IV)-complexed, Schiff base derivatives 1a-1l, prepared in one pot by the reaction of 2-amino-4-R-phenol (R = H, Me, Cl, NO₂), 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, 2-picolinic acid and dimethyl-, dibutyl-, and diphenyltin oxides, is described. The complexes were characterized by IR, MS, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn NMR. Suitable crystals of 1e and 1h enabled us to use X-ray diffraction to determine their molecular structures, which exhibited pentagonal-bipyramidal geometries where the butyl groups occupied the axial positions whereas the nitrogen and the oxygen atoms occupied the equatorial positions. The reaction of the Schiff base 2 with dibutyltin oxide led to the pentacoordinated complex, 2h, through the addition of methanol to the CN bond. An unusual reduction-oxidation reaction took place by the reaction of 2-amino-4-nitro-phenol, dibutyltin oxide and 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, which produced the corresponding amine, 3h, and the amide, 4h, tin(IV) derivatives. Both structures were established by X-ray crystallography and exhibited a distorted, bipyramidal trigonal (BPT) geometry.     

Drum-shaped mono-organooxotin assembly through solvothermal synthesis with 2,3,4,5-tetrafluorobenzoic acid: crystal structure,hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions

A drum-shaped organooxotin (IV) complex with 2,3,4,5-tetrafluorobenzoic acid of the type {[SnR₂(2,3,4,5-F₄C₆HCO₂)]O}₆ (R?=?m-Cl-PhCH₂) has been solvothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental, IR, ¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra and X-ray crystallography diffraction analysis. This complex exhibits a new structural environment appearing as a “drum” arrangement with hexa-coordinated tin atoms in a four-membered stannoxane ring, (–Sn–O–)₂, as a common structural feature. Each tin(IV) displays a distorted octahedral geometry. Weak, but significant, intramolecular C–H?···?F hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions are shown. These contacts lead to aggregation and supramolecular self-assembly. Cleavage of Sn–C bond occurred in complexes under the influence of strong acid.     

Neue mehrkernige Organozinn(IV)–Stickstoff‐Verbindungen. Synthese und Kristallstrukturen von [(PhSn)4(NPh)5Cl2] und [(MeSn)4(NHPh)4(NPh)4]

New Polynuclear Organotin(IV)–Nitrogen Compounds. Synthesis and Crystal Structures of [(PhSn)₄(NPh)₅Cl₂] and [(MeSn)₄(NHPh)₄(NPh)₄] The reaction of the organotin halides PhSnCl₃ and MeSnCl₃ with LiNHPh leads to the formation of two new nitrogen bridged organotin compounds, [(PhSn)₄(NPh)₅Cl₂] ( 1 ) and [(MeSn)₄(NHPh)₄(NPh)₄] ( 2 ). The crystal structures of 1 and 2 have been determined by low temperature X‐ray diffraction. 1 contains a bicyclic Sn₄N₅ framework, which consists of two six‐membered Sn₃N₃‐rings. All tin atoms are coordinated nearly tetrahedrally. Two tin atoms are bonded to a phenyl group and three nitrogen atoms, the other two tin atoms are coordinated by a phenyl group, two nitrogen atoms and a terminal chlorine atom. In 2 the tin atoms define the corners of a distorted square. Each edge of the square is bridged by a μ²‐NHPh and a μ²‐NPh group. The bridging NHPh and NPh groups are arranged at opposite sides of the Sn₄ plane. The tin atoms are coordinated square pyramidally by 4 nitrogen atoms and a methyl group.     

Stannylium ions, a tin(II) arene complex, and a tin dication stabilized by weakly coordinating anions

The reactivity of aryl‐substituted stannylenes, Ar₂Sn ( 4 ), towards silylarenium borates, [R₃SiArH][B(C₆F₅)₄] ( 3 ), was investigated. The reaction with 2,3,4‐trimethyl‐6‐tert‐butylphenyl (mebp)‐substituted stannylene gave silyl‐substituted stannylium ions 2 a , b , which were characterized by NMR spectroscopy supported by the results of quantum‐mechanical computations of molecular structures and magnetic properties. The tri‐iso‐propylphenyl‐substituted stannylium ions 2 c , d undergo a decomposition reaction in toluene to give the dicationic tin–arene complex [Sn(C₇H₈)₃]²⁺ ( 5 ) in the form of the [B(C₆F₅)₄] salt in high yields. The 5 [B(C₆F₅)₄]₂ salt was identified by single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis and by Mössbauer spectroscopy. The bonding situation was investigated by using natural bond orbital (NBO) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) calculations. The substitution of the weakly coordinating borate anion by the carboranate [CB₁₁H₆Br₆]^? results in replacement of the toluene ligands and formation of tin(II) carboranate with only weak Sn²⁺–anion interactions as suggested by the solid‐state structure of the isolated salt.     

Synthesis and characterization of intermediate sitting-atop (i-SAT) complexes of free base meso-tetraarylporphyrins and tin(IV) chloride

The reaction of meso-tetraarylporphyrins (H₂T(X)PP) with SnCl₄ affords green intermediate sitting-atop (i-SAT) complexes, [(H₂T(X)PP)SnCl₄]. UV–Vis, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectral data show that the porphyrin core of the complexes is distorted, thus two nitrogen atoms of the pyrrolenine groups on one side of the porphyrin plane act as electron donors to the tin center of SnCl₄. The intermediate sitting-atop (i-SAT) complex is formed each time during the incorporation of the metal center, where in the intermediate state the pyrrolic protons still remain on the porphyrin.     

Tuning physical surface properties of tin dioxide nanopowders using zinc oxide as template

With a view to energetic and (opto)electronic applications, tin (IV) oxide (SnO₂) nanoparticles have been successfully prepared at the nanoscale by a templating approach based on the use of zinc (II) oxide (ZnO) as template. The procedure consisted in preparing a mixture of tin precursor and template, subsequently calcined at 650 °C under air to lead to the formation of a SnO₂/ZnO composite material. Finally, the material was washed with an alkali solution to remove the template. The template/tin precursor mass ratio was varied in order to tailor the tin (IV) oxide material, especially with a view to main particle size. The resulting SnO₂ nanomaterials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption and electron microscopy. The tin (IV) oxide nanomaterial exhibited enhanced textural and physical surface properties (particle size, surface area, pore size) correlated to an increasing template/tin precursor mass ratio. For instance, from optimized experimental conditions, the specific surface area and pore volume were heightened twofold, reaching values of 49 m²/g and 0.32 cm³/g, respectively.     

Monochromatic‐red‐light emission of novel copolymers containing carbazole units and europium–acrylate complexes

Nearly monochromatic‐red‐light‐emitting polymers with pendant carbazole and europium (Eu) complex were synthesized and characterized by Fourier transform infrared, elemental analysis (EA), ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, UV, and gel permeation chromatography. The photoluminescence and electroluminescence (EL) properties of these polymers were investigated. A single‐layer light‐emitting‐diode device of the structure (indium tin oxide/polymer P4/Al) was fabricated, showing the characteristic bright‐red EL of the Eu³⁺ complex at 614 nm at a turn‐on voltage of about 17 V. The EL spectrum, current–voltage, and emission‐intensity–voltage characteristics of the device were measured. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 38: 3405–3411, 2000     

Free radical fixation by tin(IV) diphenylcatecholate complexes

The reactions of sodium and thallium catecholates CatM₂ (Cat is the 3,6-di-tert-butylpyrocatechol dianion; M = Na, T1) with tin diphenyl dichloride afford new tin catecholate complexes Ph₂SnCat · THF (I) and Ph₂SnCat (II). The molecular structure of pentacoordinated complex I is determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The synthesized complexes are capable of fixating both short-lived (PhC(O)O^., (CH₃)₂NC(S)S^., and NC(CH₃)₂C^.) and stable free radicals (aroxyl, nitroxyl, triphenylmethyl, and phenoxazinyl) to form stable o-semiquinone tin derivatives.     

Synthesis,X-ray crystal structure,and electrochemistry of trans-bis(ferrocenecarboxylato)(tetraphenylporphyrinato)tin(IV)

trans-Bis(ferrocenecarboxylato)(5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrinato)tin(IV) complex Sn(TPP)(FcCOO)₂ has been synthesized and fully characterized. The X-ray structural analysis of Sn(TPP)(FcCOO)₂ reveals that the tin(IV) center is octahedrally coordinated by the porphyrin occupying the square base and axial coordination of two ferrocenecarboxylato ligands in an anti orientation with respect to each other. The Fe(II) center of the ferrocenecarboxylato ligand lies 5.7 Å from the tin(IV) center of the porphyrin ring. The cyclic voltammogram of Sn(TPP)(FcCOO)₂ exhibits three distinctive redox couples consisting of one oxidative wave and two reductive waves due to the ferrocenecarboxylato ligands and the porphyrin ring, respectively.     

Bis(chlorido)tin(IV)meso-substituted Porphyrins-Characterization and Solubility

Investigation of the solubility behavior of para-substituted (H, Me, t-Bu, n-Bu) meso-tetraarylporphyrins as well as meso-tetraalkylporphyrins (Me, n-Pr, n-Bu) were performed. An increase of solubility in chloroform and benzene is detected according to the higher functionality in para position of the phenyl ring for meso-tetraarylporphyrins or in meso position on meso-tetraalkylporphyrins. Furthermore, the series of bis(chlorido)tin(IV) meso-tetraarylporphyrin and bis(chlorido)tin(IV) meso-tetraalkylporphyrin was investigated via UV/Vis spectroscopy, ¹¹⁹Sn-NMR and single crystal X-ray diffraction.     

Isostructural crystal packing and hydrogen bonding in alkyl­ammonium tin(IV) chloride compounds

The three isostructural compounds butyl­ammonium hexa­chlorido­tin(IV), pentyl­ammonium hexa­chlorido­tin(IV) and hexyl­ammonium hexa­chlorido­tin(IV), (C_nH_2n+1NH₃)₂[SnCl₆], with n = 4, 5 and 6, respectively, crystallize as inorganic–organic hybrids. As such, the structures consist of layers of [SnCl₆]²⁻ octa­hedra, separated by hydro­carbon layers of inter­digitated butyl­ammonium, pentyl­ammonium or hexyl­ammonium cations. Corrugated layers of cations alternate with tin(IV) chloride layers. The asymmetric unit in each compound consists of an anionic component comprising one Sn and two Cl atoms on a mirror plane, and two Cl atoms in general positions; the two cations lie on another mirror plane. Application of the mirror symmetry generates octa­hedral coordination around the Sn atom. All compounds exhibit bifurcated and simple hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions between the ammonium groups and the Cl atoms, with little variation in the hydrogen‐bonding geometries.
