Abstract

The complexes of tributyltin(IV) with 2-pyridinecarboxylic acid, 2PycH; 3-pyridinecarboxylic acid, 3PycH; 4-pyridinecarboxylic acid, 4PycH and 5-bromo-3-pyridinecarboxylic acid, 5B3PycH (containing –COOH group and aromatic {N} donor atom) were successfully synthesized. The complexes were prepared by condensation of bis{tributyltin(IV)} oxide, (Bu3Sn)2O with the respective free acids utilising the Dean and Stark  apparatus  to  remove  water.  The  free  ligands  and  complexes  obtained  were  characterized quantitatively using C, H, N and Sn elemental analysis as well as spectroscopic methods such as infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (1H, 13C & 119Sn NMR). Analysis of the free ligands and the complexes  showed  that  the coordination took place via  oxygen  atoms of the carboxylate group. The carboxylate anions acted as monodentate or bidentate ligands. In some of these complexes, the carboxylate groups form bridges between two central tin atoms leading to the formation of polymeric structure.  An X- ray investigation on the   tributyltin(IV)-2PycH   complexprovides further evidence of the polymeric structure of the complex with trigonal bipyrimidal geometry of the tin atom as predicted by the solid state 119Sn NMR .

 

Keywords: Tributyltin(IV) carboxylate; Polymer, X-ray, prridine
