Abstract top

The molecular structure of the title compound, [Sn2(C10H13)4(C14H20)Cl2], is a binuclear centrosymmetric complex, in which the Sn atoms are four-coordinated by three C atoms and one Cl atom in a distorted tetrahedral geometry.

Comment top

The increasing interest in organotin compounds that has arisen in the last few decades is attributed to their significantly important biological properties like antiviral and anticancer agents, in vitro antibacterial and antifungal agents, wood preservatives and pesticides, etc. (Chandrasekhar et al., 2002; & Wu et al., 2009). Therefore, synthesis of new organotin compounds with different structural features will be beneficial in the development of pharmaceutical organotin and in other properties and application. herein, we present the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound (I).

The structure of the title compound (Fig.1) consists of two symmetry equivalent tin moieties, where the tin atoms are tetrahedrally coordinated by the three C atoms and one Cl atom. The bond lengths for Sn(1)—C(1), Sn(1)—C(8) and Sn(1)—C(18) are 2.146 (5), 2.152 (5) and 2.149 (5) Å, respectively, which are slightly shorter than the Bz3Sn(EtACDA) reported by Tarassoli et al. (Tarassoli et al., 2002). Around the tin, the angles C(1)—Sn(1)—C(8), C(1)—Sn(1)—C(18) and C(8)—Sn(1)—C(18) are wider while the C(1)—Sn(1)—Cl(1), C(8)—Sn(1)—Cl(1) and C(18)—Sn(1)—Cl(1) are narrower than the ideal tetrahedral angle. Thus, the environment of tin is best described as distorted tetrahedral.

Experimental top

A small iodine grain, magnesium powder(0.24 g 10 mmol), and 1,4-bis(1- chloro-2-methylpropan-2-yl)benzene (0.52 g, 2 mmol) were added to 2 ml of anhydrous ether under stirring. The reaction mixture is then heated to 50 –60°C by hot-water bath and maintained slight boiling state. When the purplish red of iodine disappeared, which indicated the reaction were initiated, the hot-water bath was removed. The reaction were keeping the slight boiling state, then a solution of 1,4-bis(1-chloro-2-methylpropan- 2-yl)benzene (2.59 g, 10 mmol) in 10 ml anhydrous ether were added dropwise. After finished, the mixture was refluxed for 1 h to allow magnesium to proceed to completion, then cooled to 0–5°C by ice-salt bath. A solution of dichlorobis(2-methyl-2-phenylpropyl)stannane (4.56 g,10 mmol) in 15 mL THF were then added dropwise. After finished, the ice-salt bath was removed, and the reaction mixture were stirred for 0.5 h at room temprature then refluxed for another 1.5 h. Finally, the mixture were again cooled to 0°C, and acidified by dropwise adding a solution containing 2.5 g fuming HCl and 15 ml water. The layers were separated, the organic phase was dried over anhydrous calcium chloride. Following filtration and evaporation of the solvent, the residue was recrystallized by THF and the colorless block crystals of (I) were abtained.

Refinement top

All H atoms on C atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.93 Å) and refined as riding, with Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(carrier).

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
