Determination of Critical Parameters of Carbon Dioxide ＋ Butyraldehyde System with Different Compositions

Supercritical carbon dioxide（SC-CO2 ） is considered in green chemistry as a substitute for conventional solvents in chemical reactions due to its environmentally benign character. Recently we have reported the homogeneous hydroformylation of propylene in supercritical carbon dioxide（ SC-CO2 ） , which is an example of this kind of application of carbon dioxide. The determination for the critical parameters of carbon dioxide ＋ butyraldehyde mixtures is necessary for this reaction design which is the focus of the present paper. The critical parameters of the binary systems were determined via the static visual method at a constant volume with the molar fraction of butyraldehyde ranging from 1.0% to 2. 2% and the pressure ranging from 5 to 10 MPa. The experimental results show that the critical pressure and temperature increased with increasing the molar fraction of butyraldehyde. The bubble（dew） temperatures and the bubble （dew） pressures for the binary systems were also determined experimentally. The p-T Figures at different compositions of the binary systems were described. In addition, the critical compressibility factors Zc of the binary systems at different concentrations of n-butyraldehyde were calculated. It was found that the critical compressibility factor values of the binary systems decreased with increasing the molar fraction of n-butyraldehyde in the experimental range.

水介质中药物-AOT混合物的温度依赖的混合胶束化行为(英文)

The mixed micellization behavior of an amphiphilic antidepressant drug amitriptyline hydrochloride(AMT)in the presence of the conventional anionic surfactant sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate(AOT)was studied at five different temperatures and compositions by the conductometric technique.The critical micelle concentration(cmc)and critical micelle concentration at the ideal state(cmcid)values show mixed micelle formation between the components(i.e.,drug and AOT).The micellar mole fractions of the AOT(X1)values calculated using the Rubingh,Motomura,and Rodenas models show a higher contribution of AOT in the mixed micelles.The interaction parameter(β)is negative at all temperatures and the compositions show attractive interactions between the components.The activity coefficients(f1and f2)calculated using the different proposed models are always less than unity indicating non-ideality in the systems.TheΔGmΘ values were found to be negative for all the binary mixed systems.However,ΔHmΘ values for the pure drug as well as the drug-AOT mixed systems are negative at lower temperatures(293.15-303.15 K)and positive at higher temperatures(308.15 K and above).TheΔSmΘ values are positive at all temperatures but their magnitude was higher at T=308.15 K and above.The excess free energy of mixing(ΔGex)determined using the different proposed models also explains the stability of the mixed micelles compared to the pure drug(AMT)and surfactant micelles.

Stability and stoichiometry of some binary fluorophore-cyclodextrin complexes

The stability and stoichiometric ratio of binary complexes among five fluorophores and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) or heptakis-(6-amino-6-deoxy)-β-cyclodextrin (am-β-CD) were determined by means of fluorescence measurements in borate buffer at pH=8.0 and 9.0.

A comparison of complexation of Li+ ion with macrocyclic ligands 15-crown-5 and 12-crown-4 in binary nitromethane-acetonitrile mixtures by using lithium-7 NMR technique and ab initio calculation

Lithium-7 NMR measurements were used to investigate the stoichiometry and stability of Li+ complexes with 15-crown-5 (15C5), benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5), dibenzo-15-crown-5 (DB15C5) and 12-crown-4 (12C4) in a number of nitromethane (NM)-acetonitrile (AN) binary mixtures. In all cases, the exchange between the free and complexed lithium ion was fast on the NMR time scale and a single population average resonance was observed. While all crown ethers form 1:1 complexes with Li+ ion in the binary mixtures used, both 1:1 and 2:1 (sandwich) complexes were observed between lithium ion and 12C4 in pure nitromethane solution. Stepwise formation constants of the 1:1 and 2:1 (ligand/metal) complexes were evaluated from computer fitting of the NMR-mole ratio data to equations which relate the observed metal ion chemical shifts to formation constants. There is an inverse linear relationship between the logarithms of the stability constants and the mole fraction of acetonitrile in the solvent mixtures. The stability order of the 1:1 complexes was found to be 15C5·Li+>B15C5·Li+>DB15C5·Li+>12C4·Li+. The optimized structures of the free ligands and their 1:1 and 2:1 complexes with Li+ ion were predicted by ab initio theoretical calculations using the Gaussian 98 software, and the results are discussed.     

Conductometric and 1H NMR studies of thermodynamics of complexation of Zn2+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ ions with tetrathia-12-crown-4 in dimethylsulfoxide-nitrobenzene mixtures

The complex formation between Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions with macrocyclic ligand, tetrathia12-crown-4 (12S4) was studied in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)–nitrobenzene binary mixtures at different temperatures using conductometric and ¹H NMR methods. In all cases, 12S4 found to form 1:1 complexes with these cations. The formation constants of the resulting 1:1 complexes in different solvent mixtures were determined by computer fitting of the resulting molar conductance- and chemical shift-mole ratio data. There is an inverse relationship between the complex stability and the amount of DMSO in the solvent mixtures. The stability of the resulting M²⁺-12S4 complexes found to decrease in the order Pb²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Zn²⁺. The values of ?H°, ?S° and ?G° for complexation reactions were evaluated from the temperature dependence of formation constants via van’t Hoff method. The obtained results revealed that, in all cases, the complexes are enthalpy stabilized, but entropy destabilized and the values of ?H° and ?S° are strongly depend on the nature of medium. There is also a linear relationship between all ΔH° and TΔS° values indicating the existence of entropy–enthalpy compensation in complexation of the three cations and ligand in the solvent systems studied.     

The effect of ligand donor atoms on ternary complex stability

Formation constants of mixed ligand complexes of Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, and Mn²⁺,with cyadine-5′-monophosphoric acid (CMP) and various primary ligands such as 1,10-phenanthroline(phen), glycylglycine(glygly) and salicylic acid (sal) have been determined in aqueous solution at 35°C and 0.1 M (KNO₃) by potentiomeric measurements. The acid dissociation constants of all the above mentioned ligands together with their 1 : 1 binary metal complex formation constants were also measured at 35°C. In general all the 1 : 1 binary complexes follow the Irving-Williams order of stability. Further the binary metal complexes of primary ligands are more stable than their ternary complexes with CMP. For ternary complexes, Δ(log K) values seem to change from positive to highly negative as the coordinating atoms of the primary ligands were varied from N,N to N,O^? to O^?O^?. The higher stability of ternary complexes involving phen is due to its Π-bonding interaction with the above metal ions and the relative decrease in the stability of other ternary systems is due to the coulombic repulsion of donor oxygen atoms of primary and secondary ligands. Thus for ternary complexes the stabilities follow a decreasing order of M-phen-CMP > M-glygly-CMP > M-sal-CMP.     

Mixed Ligand Complexes of Am3+, Cm3+ and Eu3+ with HEDTA and HEDTA + NTA—Complexation Thermodynamics and Structural Aspects

The stability constants and the associated thermodynamic parameters of formation for the 1:1 binary complexes of Am³⁺, Cm³⁺ and Eu³⁺ with N-(2-hydroxyethyl) ethylenediaminetriacetate (HEDTA) and their 1:1:1 ternary complexes with HEDTA + NTA (nitrilotriacate) were determined by distribution ratio measurements using solvent extraction in aqueous solutions of I=0.10?mol?L^?1 (NaClO₄) at temperatures of 0?C45?°C. Formation of these complexes is favored by both the enthalpy (exothermic) and the entropy (endothermic) terms. Luminescence lifetime measurements with Cm and Eu were used to study the coordination environment of these complexes over a range of concentrations and pH values. In the binary complexes M(HEDTA), HEDTA is a hexadentate ligand with three waters of hydration, while in the ternary complexes M(HEDTA)(NTA)^3? we propose that the HEDTA retaines hexadentate coordination with NTA binding via three sites, depending on the pH of the solution, with the observation that the complex may contain a single water of hydration.

The complexation reactions between the macrocyclic ionophore, p-isopropylcalix[6]arene and Cs+ cation were studied in dimethylsulfoxide-acetonitrile (DMSO-AN) binary non-aqueous solvents at different temperatures using a conductometry method. The conductance data show that the stoichiometry of the (p-isopropylcalix[6]-arene·Cs)+ complex in all binary mixed solvents is 1:1.
