Molecular structures, DFT studies and their photophysical properties in solution and solid state. Microwave-assisted multicomponent synthesis of organotin bearing Schiff bases

Abstract A couple of luminescent organotin compounds derivated from ligands-ONO were obtained by multicomponent microwave assisted synthesis in short time (15 min) and good yields: (( E )-8, 8-8-diphenylbenzo[d] naphtho [1,2-h][1,3,6,2] dioxazastannonine ( 1 ) and ( E )11, 13- di- tert -butyl, 8- diphenylbenzo [d] naphtho [1,2-h][1,3,6,2] dioxazastannonine ( 2 )). Both compounds were fully characterized by NMR ( 1 H, 13 C, and 119 Sn; 2D-NMR, HETCOR and COSY), UV–Vis, IR, and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The X-ray structures of two complexes demonstrate that the tin atoms adopt a bipyramidal trigonal geometry. The 119 Sn NMR chemical shifts of the tin atom in the complexes are also consistent with the presence of pentacoordinate tin centers. The photophysical properties in solution and solid state, DFT, and voltammetry the two complexes have been determined.
