Abstract

Three new chlorodiorganotin(IV) methylferrocenyl dithiocarbamate complexes viz. [(FcCH2)(CH2CH2OH)NCS2SnMe2(Cl)] (1), [(FcCH2)(CH2CH2OH)NCS2SnnBu2(Cl)] (2) and [(FcCH2)(CH2CH2OH)NCS2SnPh2(Cl)] (3) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis, 1H, 13C and 119Sn NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure of 1 indicates that the coordination geometries around the tin(IV) center is intermediate between ideal trigonal-bipyramidal and square pyramidal coordination polyhedra bonded through two sulfur atoms of the dithiocarbamate ligand in an isobidentate mode, two CH3 groups and one chlorine atom. Since, in 2 and 3 only alkyl and aryl fragments have been changed we infer that both 2 and 3 would also have the same behaviors in the solution state as observed in 1. Ionic interactions abilities of 1–3 are examined in acetonitrile through UV-vis absorption spectroscopy which offers reasonably good selectivity and sensitivity towards the detection of the acetate ion. Compounds 1–3 exhibit a bathochromic shift with the acetate ion with a moderate association constant.
