Abstract: | Complexes Me2SnL2 ( I ), Me3SnL ( II ), Et2SnL2 ( III ), n‐Bu2SnL2 ( IV ), n‐Bu3SnL ( V ), n‐Oct2SnL2 ( VI )], where L is (E)‐3‐furanyl‐2‐phenyl‐2‐propenoate, have been synthesized and structurally characterized by vibrational and NMR (1H, 13C and 119Sn) spectroscopic techniques in combination with mass spectrometric and elemental analyses. The IR data indicate that in both the di‐ and triorganotin(IV) carboxylates the ligand moiety COO acts as a bidentate group in the solid state. The 119Sn NMR spectroscopic data, 1J119Sn,13C] and 2J119Sn, 1H], coupling constants show a four‐coordinated environment around the tin atom in triorganotin(IV) and five‐coordinated in diorganotin(IV) carboxylates in noncoordinating solvents. The complexes have been screened against bacteria, fungi, and brine‐shrimp larvae to assess their biological activity. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
