2-, 3-, and 4-(1-Oxo-1H-2,3-dihydroisoindol-2-yl)benzoic acids and their corresponding organotin carboxylates: Synthesis, characterization, fluorescent, and biological activities

Three novel organotin complexes with general formula Sn(OH)(bz)2L (bz = benzyl, HL = 2-, 3-, or 4-(1-oxo-1H-2,3-dihydroisoindol-2-yl)benzoic acid) and one of their ligands were prepared and characterized. In vitro antifungal and antibacterial activities of these complexes and ligands were investigated with the representative strains of Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Their fluorescence properties have also been discussed.

Synthesis of organotin complexes Sn(OH)(bz)2L (bz = benzyl, HL = 2-, 3-, or 4-(1-oxo-1H-2,3-dihydroisoindol-2-yl)benzoic acid) and the evaluation of their antifungal and antibacterial activity is reported.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
