Equilibrium studies of the diorganotin(IV) complexes with some amino acids and related compounds.
The interaction of dimethyltin(IV) and diethyltin(IV) cations with water and some amino acids and related compounds was investigated at 25 degrees C and ionic strength 0.1 M NaNO(3) using a potentiometric technique. The results showed the formation of 11 and 12 (organotin:ligand) complexes and the corresponding stability constants were determined. The participation of different ligand functional groups in binding to organotin is discussed. The effect of the pK(a) value of the respective ligand on the stability constant of its complex species was elucidated. The concentration distribution of the complexes in solution was evaluated.
