Dibenzyltin(IV) complexes of the 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]quinolin-8-olates: Synthesis and an investigation of structures by X-ray diffraction, solution and solid-state tin NMR, 119Sn Mössbauer and electrospray ionization MS

A series of cis-bis{5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]quinolinolato}dibenzyltin(IV) complexes have been synthesized by reacting sodium salts of 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]quinolin-8-ol (LH) and dibenzyltin dichloride. These complexes have been characterized by 1H, 13C, 119Sn NMR, ESI-MS in solution and by IR and 119mSn Mössbauer, 117Sn CP-MAS NMR spectroscopy in solid state. In addition, the structures of three of the dibenzyltin(IV) complexes, viz., Bz2Sn(L2)2 (2), Bz2Sn(L3)2 (3), and Bz2Sn(L5)2 (5) (L = 5-[(E)-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]quinolin-8-ol: aryl = 4′-methylphenyl- (L2H), 4′-methoxylphenyl- (L3H) and 4′-bromophenyl- (L5H)) were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In general, the complexes were found to adopt a distorted cis-octahedral arrangement around the tin atom in both solution and solid state.
