Gas-phase interaction of di- and tri-organotins with glycine and cysteine

摘要

1. The gas-phase reactivity of organotins towards glycine and cysteine is markedly different from that observed with alkali or transition metal ions. 2. Di-organotins appear much more reactive than tri-organotins. 3. Theoretical calculations are under progress in order to describe the potential energy surfaces associated with the main dissociation channels.
