The interaction of diethylltin(IV) (DET) and divinyltin(IV) (DVT) with 1-(2-aminoethyl)-pyrrolidine (AEPY) was investigated using potentiometric technique at ionic strength of 0.1?mol?dm?3 NaNO3. The hydrolysis constants of diethyltin(IV) and divinyltin(IV) cations and the stepwise formation constants of the complexes formed in solution were calculated at different temperatures and in solutions of dioxane-water solutions of different compositions. The stoichiometry and stability constants for the complexes formed were reported. The results showed the formation of 1:1 complex and the corresponding hydroxo complexes. The concentration distributions of the various complex species were evaluated as a function of pH. The thermodynamic parameters ΔH° and ΔS° calculated from the temperature dependence of the equilibrium constants were investigated for DET and DVT complexes with AEPY. The equilibrium constant for the displacement of 1-(2-aminoethyl)-pyrrolidine coordinated to diorganotin(IV) by thymine and thymidine as representative examples of DNA constituents was calculated from calculations based upon equilibrium properties. The results are expected to contribute to the chemistry of tin(IV) based anticancer agents.
