MOLYBDATO ORGANOTIN (IV) ADDUCTS AND COMPLEXES: SYNTHESIS AND INFRARED STUDY

Abstract

Nine new molybdato adducts and complexes have been synthesized and studied by infrared spectroscopy. The suggested structures are discrete or infinite chain, the molybdate behaving as a bidentate, mono-, bi- or tetrachelating ligand, the environment around the tin (IV) centre being octahedral or trigonal bipyramidal. In water containing compounds, when extra intermolecular O-H…O or O-H…Cl hydrogen bonds are considered, supramolecular architectures may be obtained.
