Synthesis of Organotin Polyesters from Reaction of the Salt of d-Camphoric Acid and Organotin Dihalides and Initial Anticancer Activity

Organotin polyesters were synthesized from d-camphoric acid. Since d-camphoric acid is a natural product, this is part of the green chemistry initiative. Further, synthesis occurred employing commercially available reactants and the interfacial system which is used industrially to synthesize aramids and polycarbonates. Thus, scale-up is straightforward. Polymers were synthesized employing the interfacial reaction between various organotin...
