Abstract

Butyltin trichloride was reacted with Salhexen(tBu) [Salhen(tBu) = N,N’-(hexylene)bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl) salicylideneimine] and Salhepten(tBu) [Salpen(tBu) = N,N’-(heptylene)bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl)salicylideneimine]. The products of the reaction were analyzed by FT-IR, melting point, and elemental analysis. The structure of the final products was determined from the analytical results. It is proposed that the metal binds to the oxygen and nitrogen of the ligands.
