iii. nBu3SnOH and (nBu3SnhO show analogous interactions with oxic sediments, while,
when spiked to anoxic sediments, the oxide forms different compounds in samples
taken from given sites (Eng et al. 1986; May et al. 1994).
iv. (nBu3SnhS and (nBu3SnhC03 are converted to other derivatives when spiked to both
type of sediments (May et al. 1994).
v. Ph3SnOH and Ph3Sn(02CCH3) are probably converted to Ph3Sn+, which possibly
binds to both oxic and anoxic sediments; Ph 3 SnCI and Ph 3 SnF spike unaltered (Lucero
et al. 1992).
12.3
Interaction of Organotin(lV) Compounds with Biological Systems
The structures of tin bonding environment, calculated by the point-charge model treatment of the 119Sn parameter nuclear quadrupole splitting, have been reported for
RzSn(IV) and R 3 Sn(IV) (R = Alkyl, Aryl) derivatives interacted with human whole
erythrocytes, erythrocyte membranes, ghost cells, cytoplasm, as well as with rat liver
mitochondria and the mitochondrial membrane; data concerning systems organotin(IV)-cells, and cell walls, of the fungus Ceratocystis ulmi, are also given. Diorganotins
exhibit possible (distorted) trans-R2 octahedral configurations, as well as trigonal
