Synthesis and structure elucidation of new series of organotin(IV) esters with bio-screening activity and catalytic study

Biologically potent organotin(iv) complexes of N-acetylated β-amino acids with spectroscopic, X-ray powder diffraction and molecular docking studies†

Twelve novel organotin(iv) complexes (1–12) of N-acetylated β-amino acids (L₁–L₈) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, multinuclear (¹H, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn) NMR, EI-MS and powder XRD techniques. The XRD results determined lattice parameters, average particle size, and intrinsic strain and confirmed the crystalline nature of complexes as face centered cubic phases. Molecular docking analysis using a catalytic pocket of the α-glucosidase enzyme indicated that most of the compounds displayed a well-fitted orientation and occupied important amino acids in the enzyme's catalytic pocket. Furthermore, in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory activity results revealed that L₁ and complexes 4, 6 and 10 showed the highest activity with IC₅₀ values of 21.54 ± 0.45, 37.96 ± 0.81 and 35.20 ± 1.02, respectively, compared to standard acarbose with an IC₅₀ value of 42.51 ± 0.21. In addition, in vivo antidiabetic activity of selected compounds using alloxan induced diabetic rabbits showed that L₄ and complexes 4, 6, 10, 12 showed significant activities like standard metformin. Anti-bacterial activity against the selected Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains has the following order Escherichia coli > Pseudomonas aeruginosa > Staphylococcus aureus > Bacillus subtilis. Similarly, antioxidant activity by the DPPH scavenging method was also studied with following results: triorganotin > diorganotin > ligands.

Novel organotin(iv) complexes of N-acetylated β-amino acids were synthesized and characterized by different techniques. The molecular docking, in vitro α-glucosidase inhibitory, and in vivo antidiabetic activity studies were carried out.

Poly(dimethyltin glutarate) as a prospective material for high dielectric applications

Poly(dimethyltin glutarate) is presented as the first organometallic polymer, a high dielectric constant, and low dielectric loss material. Theoretical results correspond well in terms of the dielectric constant. More importantly, the dielectric constant can be tuned depending on the solvent a film of the polymer is cast from. The breakdown strength is increased through blending with a second organometallic polymer.

Diorganotin(IV) complexes of biologically potent 4(3H)-quinazolinone derived Schiff bases: synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, DNA interaction studies and antimicrobial activity

Four Schiff base ligands and their corresponding organotin(IV) complexes have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR, (1)H NMR, MS and thermal studies. The Schiff bases are obtained by the condensation of 3-amino-2-methyl-4(3H)-quinazolinone with different substituted aldehydes. The elemental analysis data suggest the stoichiometry to be 1:1 ratio formation. Infrared spectral data agreed with the coordination to the central metal ion through imine nitrogen, lactam oxygen and deprotonated phenolic oxygen atoms. All the synthesized compounds have been evaluated for antimicrobial activity against selected species of microorganisms. In addition, DNA binding/cleavage capacity of the compounds was analyzed by absorption spectroscopy, viscosity measurements and gel electrophoresis methods.
