Solvothermal synthesis and characterizations of monophenyltin complexes in drum conformations

A series of drum structures of organotin complexes with various carboxylic acids have been solvothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR (1H, 13C and 119Sn) spectra and X-ray crystallography. The molecular structure analyses reveal that all of the complexes have endo drum structures. Furthermore, each of the drum structures has a hole, in which atoms of a given radius could be held.
