While diorganotin(IV) complexes displayed a large range of structures, including five, six and seven coordinate geometries with distorted trigonalbipyramidal, octahedral and pentagonal bipyramidal structures. Distannoxanes complexes are also observed in diorganotin(IV) complexes. A comprehensive review, organotin(IV) carboxylates are presented with particular reference to their structural studies as described bycrystallography methods.","PeriodicalId":10087,"journal":{"name":"Chemical science transactions","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75894565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furthermore, the separated components were analyzed by means of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). FTIR analysis revealed that each band can be characterized and then differentiated by looking the pattern of each spectrum.

Characterization of these newly synthesized complexes was carried out by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility measurement and Infrared, proton nuclear magnetic resonance and electronic absorption spectroscopy. On the basis of these studies, a square planar geometry has been assigned for Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes and a distorted octahedral geometry for the Ni(II) complexes. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of these complexes, have also been screened in vitro against some pathogenic fungal and bacterial strains to assess their growth inhibiting potential. The MIC shown by these complexes were compared with the MIC shown by standard antifungal (fluconazole) and antibacterial (cefadroxil) drugs.","PeriodicalId":10087,"journal":{"name":"Chemical science transactions","volume":"97 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76852841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The powdered oil cake was acid treated under microwave radiation for release of reducing sugars. The kinetics of the microwave process was studied and found that microwave mediated process accelerates the acid hydrolysis of oil cake in comparison with conventional heating method. Further, the multistage process for microwave mediated acid hydrolysis was adapted to increase the overall yield. The yield did not improve beyond 3 stages.
