Abstract
Ten organotin derivatives of 2‐mercaptobenzothiazole (Hmbt), 2‐mercaptobenzoxazole (Hmbo) and 2‐mercaptobenzimidazole (Hmbi) have been synthesised and thier structures characterised by spectroscopic methods. Triorganotin derivatives are all S‐bonded to the ligand and four‐coordinate at tin except Bu3Sn(mbo) which is five‐coordinate trans‐ONSnR3 polymer at 78K. The crystal structure of Cy3Sn(mbt) has been determined and confirms the tetrahedral geometry at tin. Bu2Sn(mbt)2 is weakly six‐coordinate by N,S chelating ligands. Biocidal activity patterns are presented for Cy3Sn(mbt), Ph3Sn(mbt) and Ph3Sn(mbo).
