Synthesis, spectroscopic, and structural characterization of new functionalized gem-bisphosphonate complexes of tin(IV) chloride
Abstract
Bisphosphonates of the types X(P(O)(OEt)2)2 (X = CH2=C (1a), CNCH2CH (1b) and PhCH2NCH2CH (1c)) react with SnCl4 in anhydrous dichloromethane to produce the new tin(IV) adducts [SnCl4(1a)] (2a), [SnCl4(1b)] (2b) and [SnCl4(1c)] (2c) in 72-80% yields. These complexes were characterized using IR, multinuclear (1H, 13C, 31P, 119Sn) NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and in one case by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The NMR data show that the bisphosphonate ligands are coordinated to the tin center in a bidentate fashion forming cis octahedral tin complexes. Furthermore, the X-ray structure of complex 2b reveals that the bisphosphonate ligand is coordinated in a bidentate manner to the metal center in a distorted octahedral arrangement with Sn-O-P bond angles in the range 135.95(16)–137.99(18)°. The P=O and Sn-O bond lengths of 1.495(3)-1.497(3) and 2.134(3)-2.146(2) Å, respectively are in the order expected for phosphonate tin(IV) complexes. The results are discussed and compared with closely related analogues.
