Synthesis and characterization of bis(avobenzoate)dichloridotin(IV) and attempted identification of its preferred isomeric form

Presenter(s)

Wallace Whelan

Abstract

Bis(avobenzoate)dichloridotin(IV) was synthesized and characterized to identify its preferred isomeric form. Avobenzone, an asymmetric β-diketone, was utilized in the formation of this octahedral complex, which follows the general formula type M(AA')2B2. This configuration gives rise to five different geometric isomer possibilities, each with distinct spatial arrangements. The research aims to identify the most stable isomeric form through various characterization techniques, providing insights into the complex's chemical behavior and potential applications.
