“…Out of above consideration, also as a part of our studies on coordination chemistry of heterocyclic thiones with organotin(IV) complexes [10][11][12][13], we report here on the syntheses and characterizations of four trialkyltin complexes with 2-mercaptopyrimidine (HSpym) and 4-amino-2-mercaptopyrimidine (HSapym) of the type R 3 SnL (L=Spym, R=Ph, 1; R=PhCH 2 , 2; L=Sapym, R=Ph, 3; R=PhCH 2 , 4). All the complexes 1-4 have been characterized by elemental, IR, 1 H NMR, and X-ray crystallography diffraction analyses, which revealed that the structures of 1-4 are penta-coordinated with R 3 Sn-coordinated to the thiol S and heterocyclic N atoms, and the structural distortion for each is a displacement from tetragonal toward trigonal bipyramidal geometry.…”
