the sum of the squares of the component errors. The
adduct of bipyrine is extremely insolved in most sol-
vents and it was not possibly determined its enthalpy
of dissolution.
erwise, the basicity order observed is the expected
order.
The expected basicity order for saturated hetero-
cyclic amines would be pipd > morph due to an in-
ductive effect of substitution of one carbon atom in
the ring of pipd by the more electronegative atom of
oxygen, leading to the decrease of the electronic den-
sity available for bonding on the nitrogen atom of the
ring. The order observed matches the expected order.
As a whole it is observed that the mean tin–nitrogen
here studied, are higher than the mean dissociation
energies of the tin(IV)–oxygen or tin(IV)–sulfur bonds
in comparable adducts of tin(IV) chloride with amides
or thioamides [25,26].
From the values obtained for the standard en-
thalpies of dissolution and by using appropriate
thermochemical cycles [7,18], the following thermo-
chemical parameters were determined: the standard
enthalpies of the acid/base reactions (ꢀrH◦), the stan-
dard enthalpies of formation (ꢀfH◦), the standard
enthalpies of decomposition (ꢀDH◦), the standard
lattice enthalpies (ꢀMH◦) and the standard enthalpies
(ꢀrH◦(g)). The ꢀrH◦(g) values can be used to calcu-
late the standard enthalpies of the Sn–N bonds [18],
being equal to D(Sn–N) = ꢀrH◦(g)/n (where n = 2
¯
or 3/2). Table 5 lists the values obtained for all these
thermochemical parameters for the adducts. For the
that the molar standard enthalpies of sublimation of
the adducts were equal to the enthalpies of sublima-
tion or vaporization of 1 mol of the respective ligand
[23,24], as melting points and thermal studies showed
that the adducts decomposed on heating and were not
found in the liquid phase and probably, not in the
gaseous phase.

Based on the ꢀrH◦ values for the adducts, we ob-
tain the basicity order: pipd > morph > -pico >
␥-pico > py > 4-cyanopy > 3-cyanopy and pipz >
¯
quin. Using the D(Sn–N) values, we obtain the ba-
sicity order: pipd > morph > ␥-pico = -pico >
py > 4-cyanopy > 3-cyanopy and pipz > quin. The
expected order for pyridine and derivatives would be
␥-pico > β-pico > py > 3-cyanopy > 4-cyanopy
due to an inductive effect of substitution of one hy-
drogen atom in the pyridine ring, by the electron
donator methyl group in - or ␥-pico or by the elec-
tron withdrawing cyano group in 3- or 4-cyanopy.
This causes the increase or the decrease, respectively,
of the electronic density available for bonding on the
nitrogen atom of the ring, relative to unsubstituted
pyridine. The effect is stronger in p-substitution than
in m-substitution. The inversion observed between
4- and 3-cyanopy could be due to the contribution
of another kind of interaction like hydrogen bonding
between the nitrogen atom of the cyano groups and
the carbon atoms from pyridine rings [22], being this
effect stronger for 4- than for 3-cyanopyrine. Oth-
