Competitive uptake of Cs+, Ba2+, and Zn2+ ions from binary aqueous mixtures by zeolite-13X

The preferential exchange uptake of the cations Cs⁺, Ba²⁺ and Zn²⁺ from pure solutions by zeolite-13X follows the order Q [Cs⁺]>Q [Ba²⁺]>Q [Zn²⁺], while in case of binary mixtures the order is Q [Ba²⁺(Zn²⁺)]>Q [Ba²⁺(Cs⁺)]>Q [Cs⁺(Zn²⁺)]>Q [Cs⁺(Ba²⁺)]>Q [Zn²⁺(Cs⁺)]>Q [Zn²⁺(Ba²⁺)]. Ba²⁺ uptake from mixtures shows the least suppression effect.

Effect of addition of intermetallic componds on the catalytic activity of La2CuO4

Decomposition of nitrous oxide has been studied on pure La₂CuO₄, La₂CuO₄ with 5 wt.% CaNi₅ and La₂CuO₄ with 5 wt.% NiO in the temperature range 200–480°C at 200 Torr initial pressure of reactant gas. The addition of 5 wt.% CaNi₅ decreases the energy of activation drastically in comparison with La₂CuO₄. The results are explained on the basis of the dispersity of Ni/NiO on La₂CuO₄.

Temperature programmed reduction study of alumina supported Fe3+ catalysts

The influence of the calcination temperature and Fe³⁺ content on the solubility of iron(III) in the alumina lattice has been investigated, using temperature programmed reduction (T.P.R.). It was found that the main quantity of Fe³⁺ species is dissolved in the region 200–320 °C. The solubility of the Fe³⁺ was almost constant in the range of 320–665 °C. This is found to be the case irrespective of the Fe³⁺ content at 665 °C. The surface Fe³⁺ species generally differs from the bulk -Fe₂O₃.

Protonation and cyclization of 1,3-diarylpropynones in superacids

1,3-Diarylpropynones ArCCCOAr in superacids with H ₀ ranging from –20 to – 14 undergo protonation at the carbonyl oxygen atoms to give stable ArCCC(O⁺H)Ar ions or at the acetylenic C² atom with formation of reactive ArC⁺=CHCOAr species. The effects of the Ar and Ar substituents and reaction conditions on the intramolecular cyclization of ArC⁺=CHCOAr to 3-arylinden-1-ones are discussed.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 40, No. 12, 2004, pp. 1819–1828.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Vasilev, Walspurger, Pale, Sommer, Haouas, Rudenko.     

Cyclohexene skeletal isomerization activity of sepiolites modified with B3+ or Al3+ ions

The effect of sepiolite modification by B³⁺ and Al³⁺ ions on catalytic performance were investigated in cyclohexene skeletal isomerization (CSI) reaction. Catalytic activity to 1- and 3-methylcyclopentenes (1- and 3-MCP) fit the Bassett-Habgood kinetic model for first order processes. These ions induced strong acidity in the sepiolite and the best results (greater activity and selectivity to 1-MCP) were found when the sepiolite was exchanged with an BF₃/methanol solution which contained 3 wt.% of the B³⁺ ion.

On the crystal chemistry of three copper(II)-arsenates: Cu3(AsO4)2-III,Na4Cu(AsO4)2, and KCu4(AsO4)3

The three copper(II)-arsenates were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions; their crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods:Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III:a=5.046(2) Å,b=5.417(2) Å,c=6.354(2) Å, =70.61(2)°, =86.52(2)°, =68.43(2)°,Z=1, space group ,R=0.035 for 1674 reflections with sin / 0.90 Å^–1.Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂:a=4.882(2) Å,b=5.870(2) Å,c=6.958(3) Å, =98.51(2)°, =90.76(2)°, =105.97(2)°,Z=1, space group ,R=0.028 for 2157 reflections with sin / 0.90 Å^–1.KCu₄(AsO₄)₃:a=12.234(5) Å,b=12.438(5) Å,c=7.307(3) Å, =118.17(2)°,Z=4, space group C2/c,R=0.029 for 1896 reflections with sin / 0.80 Å^–1.Within these three compounds the Cu atoms are square planar [4], tetragonal pyramidal [4+1], and tetragonal bipyramidal [4+2] coordinated by O atoms; an exception is the Cu(2)^[4+1] atom in Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III: the coordination polyhedron is a representative for the transition from a tetragonal pyramid towards a trigonal bipyramid. In KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ the Cu(1)^[4]O₄ square and the As(1)O₄ tetrahedron share a common O—O edge of 2.428(5) Å, resulting in distortions of both the CuO₄ square and the AsO₄ tetrahedron. The two Na atoms in Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂ are [6] coordinated, the K atom in KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ is [8] coordinated by O atoms.Die drei Kupfer(II)-Arsenate wurden unter Hydrothermalbedingungen gezüchtet und ihre Kristallstrukturen mittels Einkristall-Röntgenbeugungsmethoden ermittelt:Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III:a = 5.046(2) Å,b = 5.417(2) Å,c = 6.354(2) Å, = 70.61 (2)°, = 86.52(2)°, = 68.43(2)°,Z = 1, Raumgruppe ,R = 0.035 für 1674 Reflexe mit sin / 0.90 Å^–1.Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₂:a = 4.882(2) Å,b = 5.870(2) Å,c = 6.958(3) Å, = 98.51(2)°, = 90.76(2)°, = 105.97(2)°,Z = 1, Raumgruppe ,R = 0.028 für 2157 Reflexe mit sin / 0.90 Å^–1.KCu₄(AsO₄)₃:a = 12.234(5) Å,b = 12.438(5) Å,c = 7.307(3) Å, = 118.17(2)°,Z = 4, Raumgruppe C2/c,R = 0.029 für 1896 Reflexe mit sin / 0.80 Å^–1.Die Cu-Atome in diesen drei Verbindungen sind durch O-Atome quadratisch planar [4], tetragonal pyramidal [4 + 1] und tetragonal dipyramidal [4 + 2]-koordiniert; eine Ausnahme ist das Cu(2)^{[4 + 1]}-Atom in Cu₃(AsO₄)₂-III: Das Koordinationspolyeder stellt einen Vertreter des Übergangs von einer tetragonalen Pyramide zu einer trigonalen Dipyramide dar. In KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ haben das Cu(1)^[4]O₄-Quadrat und das As(1)O₄-Tetraeder eine gemeinsame O—O-Kante von 2.428(5) Å, was eine Verzerrung der beiden Koordinationsfiguren CuO₄-Quadrat und AsO₄-Tetraeder bedingt. Die zwei Na-Atome in Na₄Cu(AsO₄)₃ sind durch O-Atome [6]-koordiniert, das K-Atom in KCu₄(AsO₄)₃ ist [8]-koordiniert.

Solid-Solute Phase Equilibria in Aqueous Solution. XI. Aqueous Solubility and Standard Gibbs Energy of Cadmium Carbonate

The solubilities of CdCO₃ (otavite) in aqueous NaClO₄ solutions have been investigated as a function of ionic strength (0.15 I/mol-kg^–1 5.35, 25°C) and temperature (25°C T 75°C, I = 1.00 mol-kg^–1). A new Chemsage optimization routine was employed to simultaneously evaluate solubility data from this work and other sources, as well as standard electrode potentials determined at different ionic strengths. With the Pitzer equations the solubility constants, , were extrapolated to infinite dilution resulting in log and the ternary ion-interaction parameters ^S_Na,Cd = 0.19 and at 25°C. In addition, the following set of thermodynamic quantities can be derived from the present solubility data for otavite: _f G = –674.2±0.6 kJ-mol^–1; _f H = –755.3±3.4 kJ-mol^–1; S = 93±10 J-mol^–1K^–1. However, the present solubility data are also consistent with a recent determination of the standard entropy of otavite which leads to a recommended set of thermodynamic quantities [_f G (CdCO₃) = –674.2±0.6; _f H (CdCO₃) = –752.1±0.6; S (CdCO₃) = 103.9±0.2].     

Thermodynamic Constants of Glycyl Peptides: Solvation and Buffers for the Physiological pH Range

The pK ₂ values for the dissociation of the NH ₃ ⁺ charge center of the glycyl peptides, e.g., glycyl-D-asparagine, glycyl-DL-serine, glycyl-L-leucine, and glycyl-DL-methionine have been determined at 10 temperatures in the range 5–50°C by measurements of the emf of cells without liquid junction, utilizing hydrogen electrodes and silver–silver bromide electrodes. The thermodynamic quantities, H ^o, C _p ^o and S ^o were calculated from the temperature coefficients of the dissociation constants. The pK ₂ values at 25°C are 8.268 (glycyl-D-asparagine), 8.277 (glycyl-DL-serine), 8.323 (glycyl-L-leucine), and 8.408 (gly-cyl-DL-methionine). These values show that changes in the substituents on the -carbon atom have very little effect on the dissociation of the NH ₃ ⁺ , with the possible exception of glycyl-DL-methionine. The suitability of these compounds as buffers in the physiologically important pH range 7–9 is of interest. The thermodynamics of the solute–solvent interaction is interpreted in terms of a mixture model. The peptides chosen for study include both polar and nonpolar substituents.     

Validity of energy distribution derived from heat of adsorption in an ammonia/cation-exchanged Y zeolite system

The validity of- functions (energy level functions) which were derived from experimentalq- functions (heat functions) was examined in an ammonia/cation-exchanged Y zeolite system. The- functions of Na-Y zeolite and Cs-Na-Y zeolite were respectively calculated from theirq- functions measured by ammonia adsorption at 373 K. The heat of adsorption of ammonia was also measured on a mixture of these two zeolites at a certain mixing ratio at 373 K. The- function of the mixture was likewise calculated on the basis of this measurement. The- function thus calculated was in good agreement with the synthesized- function derived by linearly combining two- functions of each zeolite mentioned above. The- function derived from experimental- function thus proved to be valid in an actual adsorption system.     

Manganese(II) complexes with edta-type ligands. The molecular structure of aquo-dihydrogen(1,2-propanediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate)manganese(II) trihydrate, [Mn(H21,2-pdta)(H2O)] · 3H2O

New manganese(II) complexes with ethylenediamine-N,N,N,N-tetra-3-propionate (edtp) and 1,2-propanediamine-N,N,N,N-tetraacetate (1,2-pdta) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, i.r. spectroscopy and magnetic measurements. The structure of [Mn(H₂1,2-pdta)(H₂O] · 3H₂O was determined by the single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The complex crystallizes in the space group P2₁/n(#14) of the monoclinic crystal system with unit cell parameters a = 10.993(2) Å, b = 14.092(2) Å, c = 11.753(1) Å, = 96.302(9)⁰, V = 1809.7(3) ų, Z = 4 and R = 0.051. The complex contains seven-coordinated Mn^II ion with H₂1,2-pdta ion acting as hexadentate ligand and one water molecule.     

Spectrophotometric determination of rosmarinic acid in plant cell cultures by complexation with Fe2+ ions

A spectrophotometric method for determining rosmarinic acid (-O-caffeoyl-3,4-dihydroxyphenyllactic acid) in unpurified methanolic extracts from Lavandula cell cultures is reported. It is based on a complexation reaction of rosmarinic acid with Fe²⁺ to give a blue-dark product with _max=572 nm and ₅₇₃=3.82×10³ l mol^–1 cm^–1. The stoichiometry of the reaction and the optimal conditions for colour development are checked. The sensitivity and accuracy of this spectrophotometric method are compared with UV-spectral and HPLC methods for determining rosmarinic acid in plant cell cultures; similar results are obtained.

Synthesis, Structural Characterization, and Magnetic Properties of a New Charge-Transfer Salt Composed of Polyoxotungstate Acceptors [WVWVI 5O19]3− and Cationic Ferrocenyl CpFe+Cp Donors

The crystal structure of the charge-transfer slat (CpFe⁺Cp)₃[W^VW^VI ₅O₁₉] (CpFeCp=Fe(C₅H₅)₂), synthesized from the reaction of Na₂WO₄2H₂O with ferrocene under acid conditions, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal is of triclinic space group P(–1) with a=13.0374(3), b=15.0406(3), c=16.8239(1) Å, =91.417(1), =98.931(1), =115.294(1)°, V=2931.20(9) ų, Z=1, M _r =5895.57, F(000)=2652, =18.735 mm^–1, and D _c =3.340 gcm^–3. The final R factor is 0.0502 for 10173 (R _int=0.0563) unique reflections and 770 parameters. The structural analysis reveals that there are two crystallographically distinct [W^VW^VI ₅O₁₉]^3– polyoxoanions and six independent ferrocene cations per unit cell. Each polyoxoanion consists of six WO₆ octahedra with three types of W–O bond lengths. Interestingly, CpFe⁺Cp moieties are stacked to form octagonal channels that incorporate the polyanions. The closest FeFe distances between the neighboring ferrocenyl cations are more than 6.49 Å, therefore, a good magnetic isolation between the iron centers is expected.     

Synthesis and X-ray structural analysis of a unique Co-crystallization complex of [NaSal]2DB24C8 and [KSal]2DB24C8

Sodium salicylate (NaSal where Sal=2-hydroxybenzoate), when mixed with dibenzo-24-crown-8 (DB24C8) yields a bimetallic complex [NaSal]₂DB24C8 in most polar organic media, while potassium salicylate (KSal) under similar conditions shows a tendency to yield 11 or 21 complexes depending upon medium or synthesis. However, the presence of both NaSal and KSal together results in a unique mixed cation complex of composition NaKSal₂DB24C8. This product melts sharply (190-92°C) without decomposition, displays IR spectral characteristics comparable to those of [Na(Sal)]₂DB24C8, and is stable in aqueous media as shown by the detectable cation effect on the UV absorption bands of Sal and DB24C8. Single crystal X-ray analysis of NaK(Sal)₂DB24C8 reveals that the system represents a co-crystallization complex of individual (KSal)₂DB24C8 and (NaSal)₂DB24C8 molecules. The crystals are monoclinic,P2₁/c,a=19.976(2) Å,b=9.031(1) Å,c=25.541(5) Å,=122.065(9)°, ų,T=298 K,Z=2+2, CuK =1.5418 Å, and 2 (2.5°–100°). FinalR factor for the 3012 observed reflections (F>3) is 0.092. Both the Na₂- and K₂-molecules possess crystallographic centers of symmetry with one metal and its associated anion on each side of the crown ring. However, the conformations of the crowns are very different in the two molecules, with the K₂-crown being nearly planar and the Na₂-crown being quite puckered. Four oxygen atoms from the DB24C8 (KO, 2.680–2.908 Å) and three carboxyl oxygen atoms (KO, 2.472–2.708 Å) from separate salicylate ions coordinate with each potassium. Three oxygens from the crown (NaO, 2.536–2.65 Å) and three carboxyl oxygens (NaO, 2.31–2.563 Å) coordinate with each sodium. The salicylate ions lie on opposite sides and nearly perpendicular (77.2°, Na₂-molecule; 82.7° K₂-molecule) to each crown but coordinate to both of the metal ions within a molecule. The K⁺K⁺ and Na⁺Na⁺ distances in the respective molecules are 3.95 and 3.34 Å.
