Two substituted benzyltin complexes (C1, C2) has been synthesized via the reaction of N-(2-propionic acid)-aroyl hydrazone with di-p-methylbenzytin dichloride. The complexes C1 and C2 have been characterized by IR, UV-Vis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR 119Sn NMR spectra, elemental analysis and the crystal structures have been determined by X-ray diffraction. In vitro antitumor activities of both complexes were evaluated by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazoly-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay against three human cancer cell lines(H460,HepG2, MCF7) and...
