Abstract Six new triorganotin complexes, [(R3Sn)2(O2CC5H3NS)2]n (R = Me: 1; n-Bu: 2), [(R3Sn)2(O2CC6H4S)2]n (R = Me: 3; n-Bu: 4), [(R3Sn)2(O2CCH2S)2]n (R = Me: 5; n-Bu: 6) have been obtained by the reaction of R3SnCl (R = Me, n-Bu) with the corresponding dicarboxylate ligands (H2L1 = 6,6’-dithiodinicotinic acid, H2L2 = 2,2’-dithiodibenzoic acid, H2L3 = dithiodiglycolic acid). All the compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, NMR, and X-ray crystallography. The structural analysis reveals that complexes 1–6 display various 2D metal-organic framework structures including wave-like, corrugated and double-layer, which is attributed to the twisting of the ligands around flexible S S bonds. Additionally, in vitro cytotoxic investigation of complexes 1–6 were also conducted by employing human cervix cell lines (HeLa) and human lung cancer cells (A549).
