Abstract-Thirty triorganotin(IV) derivatives of the type R,Sn(R’COCHCOCH,COR”) and [R,Sn], (R’COCHCOCHCOR”) (where R = CH,, C2H5, n-C3H7, n-C,H, and C,H, and R’ = R” = CH3, C6H5 or R’ = C6HS, R” = CH3) have been synthesised by the interaction of R,SnCl with mono- or disodium salt of 2, 4, 6-heptanetrione, 1-phenyl-1, 3, 5hexanetrione and 1, 5-diphenyl-1, 3, 5pentanetrione in 1: 1 and 2: 1 molar ratios, respectively. The complexes have been examined by their molecular weight, IR, PMR and elemental analyses and their tentative structures assigned. Both “Z” and “E” forms have been identified in the 1: 1 complexes in equilibrium with the enol form containing five coordinate tin. The 2: 1 derivatives contain one five- and other four coordinated tin(IV) except the phenyl analogue where both the tins are five coordinated.

There has been an upsurge of interest in the development of the chemistry of /I, 6-triketones,1-‘5 their Schiff s bases9*16 and compartmental ligands.“19 These ligands readily form homo- as well as hetero-bimetallic complexes. However, no work appears to have been done on the triorganotin(IV) derivatives of 8, b-triketones. The work on diorganotin(IV) has been recently completed in our laboratories.m In the present communication we report the syntheses and characterisation of thirty new derivatives of /?, &triketones.

Synthesis of trimethyltin -mono(2, 4, 6-hepta- netrionate)

Similarly the reactions of triethyltin-, tri-n- propyltin-tri-n-butyltin- and triphenyltin chlorides with 2, 4, 6-heptane-trione, 1-phenyl-1, 3, 5-hex- anetrione and 1, 5-diphenyl- 1, 3, 5-pentanetrione have been carried out. Their details of syntheses and identifications are given in Table 1.

Synthesis of bis [trimethyltin -mono (2,4,6-heptane - trionate)

Trimethyltin chloride (0.02 mole) taken in 20 cm3 of benzene was added to the benzene sus- pension of disodium salt of 2, 4, 6-heptanetrione (0.01 mole) in isopropanol. The reaction mixture was allowed to reflux for 4-5 hr to complete the reaction. Sodium chloride formed during the reac- tion was removed by filteration. From the filtrate binary benzene-isopropanol azeotrope was frac- tionated out between the temperature range 68-80°C and the compound was isolated by re- moving the last traces of solvent under vacuum.

Bis(trimethyltin) -mono (2,4,6_heptanetrionate) was found to be soluble in methanol and other polar solvents but insoluble in non-polar solvents. It is monomeric in refluxing methanol and non- electrolyte in nitrobenzene. Found: Mol. Wt., 449; C, 33.12; H, 5.46; Sn, 50.30. Calc. for [(CH,),Sn],(CH,COCHCOCHCOCH,); Mol. Wt., 467; C, 33.38; H, 5.60; Sn, 50.74%.

Likewise the reactions of triethyltin-, tri-n- propyltin tri-n-butyltin- and triphenyltin chlorides with disodium salt of 2, 4, 6-heptanetrione, 1 -phenyl-1 , 3, 5-hexanetrione and 1, 5-diphenyl- 1, 3, 5-pentanetrione in 2: 1 molar ratio have been carried otit and their analytical results are given in Table 2.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The triorganotin mono (p, 6-triketonates) and bis(triorganotin)-mono (/3, S-triketonates) are ei- ther yellow-brown coloured viscous liquids or crystalline solids, soluble in common organic polar and non-polar solvents, except the bis-derivatives of 2, 4, 6-heptanetrione. They decompose around 35-45”C. Both 1: 1 and 2: 1 products are mono- meric in freezing benzene and non-electrolyte in nitrobenzene.

Infrared spectra of triorganotin-mono (fl, 6-triketonates) show prominent bands in the re- gion 3400-3200 and 170&l 500 cm - ‘. The former has been assigned to the vOH. The strong intensity bands around 1680-1650 cm- ’ are assigned to the free carbonyl group. The band around 1600 cm - ’ has been assigned to the coordinated carbonyl groups.‘pz3 The VC = 0 of the non-chelated carbonyl group is also slightly shifted in com- parison to those of free ligands, presumably due to the shift in keto-enol equilibrium.

However in the IR spectra of bis- triorganotin)-mono (j?, 6 -triketonates) marked lowering in VC = 0 without splitting have been observed, indicating thereby coordination of all the carbonyl oxygens to the central tins.23

The presence of metal-oxygen24 and metal-carbon is revealed by the presence of strong to medium intensity bands in. the region 730-600 and 590-500 cm -I, respectively. The presence of two bands in the latter region clearly reveals non-linear nature of -SnR, groups Tables 3 and 5.

The PMR spectra (Table 4) of triorganotin- mono (p, b-triketonates) reveal the presence of tautomeric methine signal at 6, 7.15-7.3 ppm. This signal is a far more shifted downfield than the one due to free ligands. Such a situation has emerged because of the delocalisation of n-electrons (I),

implying coordination of both the terminal and central carbonyl groups to the central tin.

The CH, signals were found at 6, 5.8 and 5.4 ppm, respectively is implying that the vinylic proton is under two magnetically non-equivalent environments, the “2” and “E” forms. These two forms are in equilibrium. In the “2” form the vinylic proton is nearer to the alkyl group (II) because of the shielding effect of the alkyl group while the peak appearing in the downfield region is attributed to the vinylic proton of “E” form in which it is deshielded (III).

The PMR chemical shift data of some of the bis(triorganotin)-mono (j?, 6 -triketonates) are given in Table 6. The methylene signals appearing at S, 3.5-4.3 ppm in the unchelated ligands,25 altogether disappear in the chelates, implying in- volvement of all the three carbonyl groups in chelation. The methine signals shift towards lower magnetic field as compared to free ligand, implying delocalisation of rr-electrons throughout the framework. Further appearance of two methine signals at 6, 7.15-7.5 and 5.75-6.0 ppm indicate two types of methine protons. In the former case

one of the trialkyl tin forms a part of the chelated ring, embracing two oxygens of the central and terminal carbonyl groups, stabilized through the n-electron delocalisation, imparting quasi- aromaticity. 26*27 In such a situation the methine proton is deshielded (IV), allowing the formation of penta-coordinated tin, while the second tri- alkyltin is attached to the oxygen of the terminal carbonyl group and it is four coordinated.

Further in the complexes (V) of triphenyltin there is only one CH proton signal, implying that each of the triphenylstannyl groups attached to the two of the three carbonyl groups forming homo bimetallic complex. The explanation of this strange situation can be advanced on the basis of the - I effect of the phenyl group, resulting in the enhance- ment of the electron accepting property of tin(IV). As a result of this central oxygen becomes three- coordinated and on account of the ring current both the CH protons are rendered magnetically equivalent. The methine signal also merges into the those of the phenyl groups.
