Diorganotin dichloride compounds, Rl 2 SnCl 2 (R=Me, nBu, Ph) react with Schiff bases (L), derived from substituted and non‐substituted 2‐ or 3‐aminopyridine with 2‐hydroxy‐, 2‐methoxy‐ or 2‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxy‐benzaldehyde in a 1 : 1 molar ratio, to give complexes of general formula R 2 SnCl 2 ·L. It is suggested that the Schiff bases coordinate with tin in bidentate fashion to give hexacoordinate tin species. Almost all the complexes prepared show some 1 : 1 molar conductivity in ethanol and DMF, indicating on R 2 Sn(L)Cl + Cl − ionic structure type. The complexes were screened against seven species of bacteria.
