Abstract
Dialkyl (alkylene) dithiophosphate adducts of stannous chloride were synthesized by the reaction of anhydrous tin(II) chloride (SnCl2) and dialkyl (alkylene) dithiophosphoric acid in a 1:1 molar ratio, under anhydrous reaction conditions, below 5 °C in a closed vessel. The newly synthesized adducts were characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic techniques [FT-IR, NMR (1H, 31P, and 119Sn), and mass spectrometry]. Coordination modalities have indicated a donor–acceptor interaction between sulfur and tin(II) moieties, where tin(II) acts as a Lewis acid. The adducts were found to have significant antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans.
