Abstract

Quantum-chemical calculations of three isomers of the o-methoxybenzoyl chloride complex with tetrachlorostannane and of their components were performed applying the RHF/3-21G* and MP2/3-21G* methods. It was found that a complex with trigonal-bipyramidal structure is formed, its formation occurred through the interaction of ester (not carbonyl) oxygen atom with tin atom. This complex eventually is transformed into the energetically more favorable cis-octahedral complex of the same composition. The tin atom in the latter complex interacts with two oxygen atoms. The reasons for the formation of energetically unfavorable complex of trigonal-bipyramidal structure is the almost equal probability of the existence of various possible forms of o-methoxybenzoyl chloride and therefore higher probability of the Sn atom to interact with the ester oxygen atom possessing a much more negative charge than the carbonyl oxygen.
