Triorganotin(IV) derivatives of 7-amino-2-(methylthio)[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid. Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, in vitro antimicrobial activity and X-ray crystallography

摘要

Triorganotin(IV) complexes of the 7-amino-2-(methylthio)[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid (HL), Me3SnL(H2O), (1), [n-Bu3SnL](2)(H2O), (2), Ph3SnL(MeOH), (3), were synthesized by reacting the amino acid with organotin(IV) hydroxides or oxides in refluxing methanol. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, H-1, C-13 and Sn-119 NMR, IR, Raman and Sn-119 Mossbauer spectroscopic techniques. Single crystal X-ray diffraction data were obtained for compounds (2) and (3). Ph3SnL(MeOH) presents a trigonal bipyramidal structure with the organic groups on the equatorial plane and the axial positions occupied by a ligand molecule, coordinated to tin through the carboxylate, and a solvent molecule, MeOH. A similar structure is proposed for Me3SnL(H2O) on the basis of analytical and spectroscopic data. The tributyltin(IV) derivative, [n-Bu3SnL](2)(H2O), is characterized by two different tin sites with similar tbp geometry featured by butyl groups on the equatorial plane. Sn(1) and Sn(2) atoms are axially bridged by a ligand molecule binding through the N(4) and the carboxylate group; the two coordination spheres are saturated by another ligand molecule, binding the metal through the carboxylate group, and a water molecule, respectively. Antimicrobial tests on compounds 1 and 2 showed in vitro activity against Gram-positive bacteria.
