Article Synopsis
  • The reaction of salicylaldehyde with beta-amino alcohols and diorganotin(IV) oxides produced five novel diorganotin(IV) compounds with promising yields.
  • These compounds were thoroughly characterized using techniques like NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, revealing their structure and purity.
  • When tested for antimicrobial activity, compounds 4 and 5 showed effectiveness against various bacteria, with compound 5 being notably more effective; their toxicity was also evaluated to understand environmental implications.

The reaction between trans-PcSiCl2 (1) and the potassium salts of six fatty acids (2 a-2 f) led to the trans-PcSi[OOC(CH2)nCH3]2 compounds (3 a-3 f), which were characterised by elemental analysis, IR, UV/Vis and 1H, 13C, and 29Si NMR spectroscopy. From a detailed study of the NMR spectra, the strong anisotropic currents of the Pc macrocycle were found to have an effect on up to the sixth methylenic group. As expected, the length of the hydrocarbon tail does not affect the chemical shift of the 29Si nucleus of any of the compounds, appearing at around -222.
