Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Di- and Trimethyltin Carboxylates: Ladders and 1D Zig–Zag Chains Polymers

Novel triphenyltin(iv) compounds with carboxylato N-functionalized 2-quinolones as promising potential anticancer drug candidates: in vitro and in vivo evaluation

“…22,23 The geometry of organotin(IV) carboxylates shows interesting structural diversity such as monomers, dimers, tetramers, hexameric drums, oligomeric ladders, cyclic drums, 1D chains, 2D planes, and macrocyclic structures. 24,25 Triorganotin(IV) carboxylate complexes generally exist either in the monomeric form with a four-or five-coordinated tin(IV) atom, or as a polymeric five-coordinated species where carboxylic groups usually serve as a bridging building block. 26,27 Over the last two decades, several studies have been carried out on the structure-activity correlation, focusing on the relationship between biological activity and structure.…”
