In the centrosymmetric tetranuclear title complex, [Sn4(C4H9)8(C3H3Br2O2)4O2], one of the two independent Sn atoms is five-coordinated by one O atom of the carboxylate anion, two bridging O atoms and two n-butyl groups in a C2SnO3 distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. The other Sn atom also has a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry, being coordinated by two O atoms of two carboxylate anions, one bridging O atom and two butyl groups. An interesting feature of the is the short Sn⋯O [2.756 (4) Å] and O⋯O [2.608 (3) Å] interactions. The –BrCH2—CHBr– segments of the two carboxylate anions are disordered over two positions [site occupancies of 0.60 (1)/0.40 (1) and 0.53 (2)/0.47 (2)]. Weak non-directional C—H⋯O interactions lead to the formation of infinte chains along the a axis; other weak intermolecular C—H⋯π interactions are also present.

The complex bis(2,3-dibromopropionato)tetrabutyldistannoxane(IV) dimer was obtained by heating under reflux a 1:1 molar mixture of dibutyltin(IV) oxide (0.50 g, 2 mmol) and 2,3-dibromopropionic acid (0.46 g, 2 mmol) in methanol (50 ml) for four hours. A clear colourless solution was isolated by filtration and kept in a bottle. After four days, colourless crystals (0.65 g, 69.4% yield) were collected. Melting point: 439.3 - 440.1 K. Analysis found for C44H84O10Br8Sn4: C, 28.36; H, 4.37; Sn, 24.97%. Calculated found for C44H84O10Br8Sn4: C, 28.00; H, 4.49; Sn, 25.16%. FTIR as KBr disc (cm-1): υ(C—H) saturated 2957, 2927, 2869; υ(COO)as 1654, 1614; υ(COO)s 1406, 1376; υ(Sn—O—Sn) 617; υ(Sn—O) 477.
All of the hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.96–0.98 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2–1.5 Ueq(C). A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups. The C–C bonds of the butyl groups were restrained to 1.500 (1) Å. The highest peak (1.86 e. Å-3) is located 0.71 Å from Sn1 and the deepest hole (-1.37 e. Å-3) is located 0.82 Å from Sn2. The C—C bonds in the butyl chains were restrained to 1.513 (2) Å.

Experimental. The low-temperature data was collected with the Oxford Cyrosystem Cobra low-temperature attachment. |
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s 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. |

In recent years, different types of organotin(IV) complexes have been studied for their in vitro activity against a large array of tumor cell lines and have been found to be as effective as traditional heavy metal anticancer drugs, such as cis-platin and paraplatin (Gielen et al., 2000; Khan et al., 2000; Ronconi et al., 2002; Tian et al., 2005). In general, there are many well documented structures on complexes isolated from the 1:1 molar ratio reaction between diorganotin(IV) with the respective organic acids. Commonly, this dimeric structure is known as organodistannoxane dimer (Khoo & Hazell, 1999; Parvez et al., 2004; Li et al., 2006). The core geometry of the organodistannoxane dimer complexes consists of a centrosymmetric planar Sn2O2 group bonded to the exo- and endocyclic tin(IV) atom moiety via the bridging oxygen atoms so that the oxygen atoms are tri-coordinated. Recently, the crystal structure of the bis(2,4-dinitrobenzoato)tetrabutyldistannoxane(IV) dimer has been determined and consists of a centrosymmetric planar Sn2O2 group (Win et al., 2008). In addition, all the four tin atoms (exo- and endocyclic) are five-coordinated and exist in distorted trigonal bypiramid geometry (Win et al., 2008). In this study, the structure of the titled complex is similar to bis(2,4-dinitrobenzoato)tetrabutyldistannoxane(IV) dimer. The only exception is 2,3-dibromopropionic acid is utilized in the reaction to obtain the title complex.
The bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles in the molecule (I, Fig. 1, Table 1) are within normal ranges. Intramolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds generate S(5) ring motifs. In the title compound, one of the two independent Sn atoms is five-coordinated by the one oxygen atom of the carboxylate anoin, two oxo-bridged oxygen atoms and two n-butyl groups in a trans-C2SnO3 distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. The other Sn atom has also a five-coordinated geometry which is coordinated by two oxygen atoms of the carboxylate anion, one oxo-bridged O atom and two butyl groups in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal mode. The interesting feature of the crystal structure is the short Sn···O [2.756 (4)–3.271 (4) Å] and O···O [2.608 (3) Å], which are shorter than sum of the van der Waals radii of the relevant atoms (Spek, 2003). The –BrCH2—CHBr- segment of the carboxylate anion ligand is disordered over two positions with refined site-occupancies of 0.60 (1)/0.40 (1) and 0.53 (2)/0.47 (3), respectively. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked together through C—H···O hydrogen bonds, forming 1-D infinte chains along the a axis (Fig 2). The crystal structure is further stabilized by weak intermolecular C—H···π (Table 1) interactions.
