Abstract
Reactions of organotin(IV) chloride (Me2SnCl2, PhSnCl3 and n-BuSnCl3) with the Schiff base 6-methylpyridine-2-carboxaldehyde phenylhydrazone (L) result in the formation of organotin(IV) anionic complexes. Me2SnCl2 reacts with L in dichloromethane to form [LH+](2)[Me2SnCl4](2-). X-ray structural analysis has been carried out on the complex salt bis[6-methylpyridine-2-carboxaldehydehydrazodium]tetrachlorodimethylstannate(IV), [LH+](2)[Me2SnCl4](2-) wherein the tin moieties exist as monomers. Reactions of PhSnCl3 and n-BuSnCl3 with L form the complexes [LH+](2)[PhSnCl5](2-) and [LH+](2)[n-BuSnCl5](2-). Compounds were also characterized by FTIR, H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy.
