Diorganotin (IV) Dichloride Complexes of some N-Arylfurfuralnitrones

Abstract

Some new diorganotin(IV) dichloride complexes of the general formula R₂SnCl₂.L, where R = Me, Bu, Ph; L = CH=N(O)C₆H₄X (X = H, p-CH₃, CH₃O, CH₃CO, F, Cl or Br) have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, and IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The spectral data show that the nitrone ligands coordinate with tin through the most active oxygen atom of the N-oxide to give penta-coordinate tin complexes. An explanation for such observations is given.
