Some organotin(IV) and tin(II) complexes of composition R3Sn[ R′
COC:CON¯(C¯6¯H¯5¯)N:C¯CH3]
(where R=C4H9, R′=CH3
, C3H5
,p-Cl C6H4
; R=C6H5
, R′=C6H5
and p-ClC6H4
) and Sn[p-ClC6H4COC:CON¯(C¯6¯H¯5¯)N:C¯CH3]2
were screened for their toxicity against Aedes aegypti larvae.
Organotin(IV) complexes were more active than tin(II) complexes.
