. Can. J. Chem. 70, 2683Chem. 70, (1992.Methods of synthesis, elemental analyses, and IR and NMR spectroscopic data are reported for a series of triphenyltin esters of N-salicylidene-w amino acids of the general formula: Ph,SnOCO(CH?),,N=CHAr (Ar = 2-HOC6H4-and 2-HOCloH6-; n = 1, 2, 3, and 5). The crystal structure of triphenyltin N-sajicylidene-6-amin$exanoate was detedmined. The crystals are monoclini:, space group P2,/a, with a = 16.3493 (8) [Traduit par la redaction]
