Synthesis and Characterization of Salicylate Derivatives of Dibutyl Sn(IV)-Ti(IV)-μ-Oxoisopropoxide

Abstract

New Salicylate derivatives of organoheterobimetallic-μ-oxoisopropoxide [Bu2SnO2Ti2(OPri)6] have been synthesized by the thermal condensation of μ-oxoisopropoxide compound with different salicylates in different molar ratios (1:1-1:4) yielded the compounds of the type [Bu2SnO2Ti2(OPri)6-n(RSal)n] (where n is 1-4 and RSal = Salicylate anion) respectively. The μ-oxoisopropoxide derivative has been characterized by elemental, liberated isopropanol, and spectral analysis (IR, 1H, 13C, and 119Sn NMR).
