Starting from 4-isopropylbenzoic acid, three new triorganotin carboxylates bearing methyl, butyl and phenyl substituents at tin, respectively, were prepared and fully characterized by spectroscopic and thermal techniques, with particular regard to the coordination number of tin atom, in solution as well as in the solid state. The triorganotin compounds, tested as transesterification catalysts in the reaction between ethyl acetate and primary, secondary or tertiary alcohol, respectively, displayed, as expected, a strong decrease of activity on passing from the primary to the tertiary alcohol reactant. Different activities by the tin carboxylates were also observed in the reaction between primary alcohol and ethyl acetate. The reaction mechanism, as elucidated by Sn NMR, involves coordination of both ester substrate and alcohol reactant to the triorganotin compound, the reaction conversion appearing related not only to the Lewis acidity of the tin atom, but also to the nature of the reactants. Preliminary catalytic tests were also carried out in the reaction between glyceryl tridodecanoate (as a model of natural triglyceride) and ethanol, mimicking the preparation of biodiesel fuel. Although in this case lower conversions were obtained with respect to the reactions on ethyl acetate, the catalytic activity of organotin derivatives appears considerable.
