Synthetic, structural and biological studies of organotin(IV) complexes of schiff bases derived from pyrrol-2-carboxaldehyde

Some new organotin(IV) complexes having general formulae R₂MCl[L] and R₂M[L]₂ were synthesized by the reactions of Me₂MCl₂ with Schiff bases [5-Mercapto-4-(pyrrolcarboxalideneamino)-s-triazole, 5-Mercapto-3-methyl-4-(2-pyrrolcarboxalideneamino)- s-triazole, 3-Ethyl-5-mercapto-4-(2-pyrrolcarboxalideneamino)-s-triazole] in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratios. All of the compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, IR, UV, ¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectral studies. The IR and ¹H NMR spectral data suggest the involvement of azomethine nitrogen in coordination with the central metal atom. With the help of the above-mentioned spectral studies, penta and hexacoordinated environments around the central metal atoms in the 1:1 and 1:2 complexes, respectively, have been proposed. Finally, the free ligands and their metal complexes were tested in vitro against some pathogenic bacteria and fungi to assess their antimicrobial properties.     

Synthesis,Spectroscopic Studies,and In Vitro Antifungal Activity of Organosilicon(IV) and Organotin(IV) Complexes of 4-Amino-5-mercapto-3-methyl-S-triazole Schiff Bases

The Schiff bases derived from condensation of s-triazole with heterocyclic aldehydes and their 1:1 and 1:2 complexes have been synthesized. These complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance and spectroscopic studies, including UV, IR, ¹H, ¹³C, ²⁹Si, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopy. On the basis of these studies, the resulting complexes have been proposed to have trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral geometries. The biological activity of these complexes against various fungi has been investigated.
