Prochlorperazine bismethanesulfonate: Sensitive and selective reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of microgram amounts of osmium

Prochlorperazine bismethanesulfonate (PCPMS) is proposed as a new sensitive and selective reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of microgram amounts of osmium. PCPMS forms a red-colored species with osmium(VIII) or osmium(VI) instantaneously at room temperature in 5 M phosphoric acid medium. The red species exhibits maximum absorbance at 529 nm. Beer's law is valid over the concentration range 0.05–3.6 ppm for osmium(VIII) and 0.15–6.4 ppm for osmium(VI). Sandell's sensitivity of the reaction is 2.89 nm cm^?2 for osmium(VIII) and 4.24 ng cm^?2 for osmium(VI). The effects of time, temperature, acidity, order of addition of reagents, reagent concentration, and diverse ions are investigated. The application of the proposed method in the determination of osmium content in synthetic ores has been explored.     

Spectrophotometric determination of osmium

Summary m-Amino benzoic acid in large excess reacts with tetra-, hexa- and octavalent osmium at theph range 4.5–6 to give a purple complex having absorption maximum at 500 nm. Beer's law is obeyed for 0.5 to 8 ppm of osmium(VI) and osmium(VIII) with optimum concentration range of 2 to 8 ppm of osmium(VI) and 3 to 8 ppm for osmium(VIII). The per cent relative error per 1% absolute photometric error is 2.8 for both osmium(VI) and osmium(VIII). Ions such as Pd²⁺, Rh³⁺, Ir⁴⁺, W⁶⁺, U⁶⁺, Co²⁺, Hg²⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Ba²⁺, Sr²⁺, Th⁴⁺ and Zr⁴⁺ do not interfere in the determination.Molar ratio method indicates that the reagent first reduces osmium (VIII) and osmium(VI) to osmium(IV), which then probably forms a 11 complex with the excess unoxidised reagent.Part III.: Anal. chim.

MTO and OsO4: an efficient catalytic couple for mild H2O2-based asymmetric dihydroxylation of olefins

A novel and robust system for osmium-catalyzed asymmetric dihydroxylation of olefins by aqueous H2O2 with methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) as electron transfer mediator (ETM) has been developed. The MTO is catalyzing the H2O2 oxidation of the chiral ligand to its mono-N-oxide, which in turn reoxidizes OsVI to OsVIII. Thus the (DHQD)2PHAL plays a dual role serving as the chiral inductor as well as the tertiary amine generating the N-oxide required for the recycling of osmium. The present catalytic system gives vicinal diols in good isolated yields and high enantiomeric excess (up to 99 % ee).     

Contributions to the analytical chemistry of osmium and ruthenium-IX: the dimercapto derivatives of asymmetric triazine as colour reagents for osmium

The parameters of the reaction of osmium with 3,5-dimercapto-6-(ethylcarboxy)-1,2,4-triazine have been studied and the optimum conditions for the spectrophotometric determination of osmium over the range 0.5-18.0 ppm determined. The coloured product contains the components in the ratio 1:2 metal:ligand.     

Selective NO(x) optical sensing with surface-confined osmium polypyridyl complexes

Optical detection of parts-per-million (ppm) levels of NO2 (1-10 ppm) and NO(x) (800-2550 ppm) by a structurally well-defined monolayer consisting of osmium polypyridyl complexes on glass substrates has been demonstrated.     

Catalysis of the arsenic(III)-potassium bromate reaction--II: catalytic determination of osmium

A simple visual titrimetric procedure is proposed for the catalytic determination of osmium, based on the arsenic(III)-bromate reaction. A detailed kinetic study of the catalytic reaction allows a mechanism to be proposed and optimum conditions for analysis to be selected. The analytical method has a detection limit of 10(-4) ppm osmium and possesses a higher degree of freedom from interference by ruthenium than other similar systems.     

Binuclear (salen)osmium phosphinidine and phosphiniminato complexes

The preparation of a number of binuclear (salen)osmium phosphinidine and phosphiniminato complexes using various strategies are described. Treatment of [Os(VI)(N)(L(1))(sol)](X) (sol = H(2)O or MeOH) with PPh(3) affords an osmium(IV) phosphinidine complex [Os(IV){N(H)PPh(3)}(L(1))(OMe)](X) (X = PF(6)1a, ClO(4)1b). If the reaction is carried out in CH(2)Cl(2) in the presence of excess pyrazine the osmium(III) phosphinidine species [Os(III){N(H)PPh(3)}(L(1))(pz)](PF(6)) 2 can be generated. On the other hand, if the reaction is carried out in CH(2)Cl(2) in the presence of a small amount of H(2)O, a μ-oxo osmium(IV) phosphinidine complex is obtained, [(L(1)){PPh(3)N(H)}Os(IV)-O-Os(IV){N(H)PPh(3)}(L(1))](PF(6))(2)3. Furthermore, if the reaction of [Os(VI)(N)(L(1))(OH(2))]PF(6) with PPh(3) is done in the presence of 2, the μ-pyrazine species, [(L(1)){PPh(3)N(H)}Os(III)-pz-Os(III){N(H)PPh(3)}(L(1))](PF(6))(2)4 can be isolated. Novel binuclear osmium(IV) complexes can be prepared by the use of a diphosphine ligand to attack two Os(VI)≡N. Reaction of [Os(VI)(N)(L(1))(OH(2))](PF(6)) with PPh(2)-C≡C-PPh(2) or PPh(2)-(CH(2))(3)-PPh(2) in MeOH affords the binuclear complexes [(MeO)(L(1))Os(IV){N(H)PPh(2)-R-PPh(2)N(H)}Os(IV)(L(1))(OMe)](PF(6))(2) (R = C≡C 5, (CH(2))(3)6). Reaction of [Os(VI)(N)(L(2))Cl] with PPh(2)FcPPh(2) generates a novel trimetallic complex, [Cl(L(2))Os(IV){NPPh(2)-Fc-PPh(2)N}Os(IV)(L(2))Cl] 7. The structures of 1b, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 have been determined by X-ray crystallography.     

2-Amino-3-hydroxypyridine as a chromogenic reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of osmium

2-Amino-3-hydroxypyridine forms two coloured complexes, green and violet, with osmium, depending on the pH of the solutions. Based on this reaction, a selective and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of osmium (3-13 ppm in the final solution) alone and in the presence of other metal ions has been developed.

Conditions have been developed for the spectrophotometric determination of osmium with 1-phenyl-4,4,6-trimethyl-(1H,4H)-2-pyrimidinethiol after extraction of the complex into molten naphthalene. Beer's law holds for the concentration range of 4-77 mug of osmium in 10 ml of the final solution. The molar absorptivity is 1.33 x 10(4) l.mole(-1).cm(-1). The reagent is highly selective for osmium.     

The Simultaneous Spectrophotometric Determination of Osmium and Ruthenium

Abstract

A spectrophotometric procedure is described for the simultaneous determination of osmium and ruthenium in the form of bromo complexes. It was found that a blue ruthenium-thiourea complex could be formed in 6.7 M HBr solutions while the osmium could be maintained as the hexabromoosmate complex. Absorption maxima were at 620 μ for the ruthenium complex and at 446 μ for the osmium complex. Molar absorptivities for the ruthenium complex were 2.47 × 10³ at 620 μ and 763 at 446 μ. For the osmium complex molar absorptivities were 328 at 620 μ and 6.81 × 10³ at 446 μ. The method is useable over the range of 5 to 30 ppm with an absolute error of = 1 ppm over the range. Other platinum metals interfere.     

Oxidative ortho-C-N fusion of aniline by OsO4. Isolation, characterization of oxo-amido Osmium(VI) complexes, and their catalytic activities for oxidative C-C bond cleavage of unsaturated hydrocarbons

In an unusual reaction of osmium(VIII) oxide with p-substituted aromatic amines (X-C(6)H(4)-NH(2), where X = Me, H, Cl) in heptane afforded the brown osmium(VI)-oxo complexes [OsO(L)(2)] (1a-c, L = N-aryl-1,2-arylenediamide) in moderate yields. The ligand L is formed in situ via oxidative ortho-C-N fusion of arylamines. The reaction occurs in an inert atmosphere, and a part of Os(VIII) is used up for the oxidation of aromatic amine. Single crystal X-ray structure of a representative complex 1a is solved. The structural analysis has authenticated the ortho-C-N fusion of ArNH(2) resulting in formation of the diamide ligand, L. The complex as a whole is penta-coordinated, and the coordination sphere has a distorted square pyramidal geometry (tau = 0.26). A similar reaction of osmium(VIII) oxide with the preformed N-phenyl-1,2-phenelene diamine produced the complex 1a in nearly quantitative yield. The substituted phenazine, 5-phenyl-3-phenylimino-3,5-dihydro-phenazine-2-ylamine, is obtained as a byproduct of the latter reaction. The complexes, 1a-c, can be reduced in a reversible one-electron step, as probed by cyclic voltammetry. The one electron reduced paramagnetic Os(V) intermediate is, however, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) silent. Solution spectra of the osmium complexes show several multiple transitions in the UV-vis region. Density functional theory calculations were employed to confirm the structural features and to support the spectroscopic assignments. The complex 1a catalyzes oxidation of a wide variety of unsaturated hydrocarbons like alkenes, alkynes, and aldehydes to the corresponding carboxylic acids in the presence of tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) efficiently at room temperature.     

Spectrophotometric determination of osmium with ammonium thiocyanate

Summary A spectrophotometric method for the determination of osmium using ammonium thiocyanate is described. A stable reddish brown colour with an absorption maximum at 440 nm is produced when osmium tetroxide is heated for 30 min at a p_H between 1 to 4 over a boiling water bath with excess reagent. The recommended concentration range is from 3 to 15 ppm of osmium in aqueous medium and from 0.6 to 1.5 ppm when the brown colour (which turns blue) is extracted into isoamyl alcohol. Errors are about ± 1.5%.

Osmium Complexes Useful in the Preparation of Metal Thin Film and Highly Efficient Electroluminescent Devices

Treatment of β-diketone ligand, such as hfacH (hexafluoroacetylacetone), with Os3(CO)12 in a stainless steel autoclave at elevated temperature afforded the corresponding mononuclear osmium complex [Os(CO)3(hfac)(tfa)] (1) in good yield. This complex is highly volatile and displays moderate stability at the higher temperatures; thus, it can be utilized for depositing metal thin-film material with overall quality comparable or better than those deposited using the commercially available chemical reagents. Moreover, combination of Os3(CO)12 with another class of chelate ligand such as 3-trifluoromethyl-5-(2-pyridyl) pyrazole (ppz)H gave formation of the Os(H) dicarbonyl complex [Os(CO)2(ppz)2] (2). This osmium complex shows blue phosphorescence at room temperature, which is characteristic for the 3ππ* emission with vibronic progressions at 430,457 and 480 nm. The remarkable photophysical properties were rationalized by a combination of π electron accepting CO ligand, relative ppz orientation and heavy-atom enhanced spin-orbit coupling effects. Related chemical transformations that afforded other useful luminescent Os complexes are presented.     

Ultra-deep desulfurization of diesel: oxidation with a recoverable catalyst assembled in emulsion

A [(C(18)H(37))(2)N(+)(CH(3))(2)](3)[PW(12)O(40)] catalyst, assembled in an emulsion in diesel, can selectively oxidize the sulfur-containing molecules present in diesel into their corresponding sulfones by using H(2)O(2) as the oxidant under mild conditions. The sulfones can be readily separated from the diesel using an extractant, and the sulfur level of the desulfurized diesel can be lowered from about 500 ppm to 0.1 ppm without changing the properties of the diesel. The catalyst demonstrates high performance (>/=96 % efficiency of H(2)O(2), is easily recycled, and approximately 100 % selectivity to sulfones). Metastable emulsion droplets (water in oil) act like a homogeneous catalyst and are formed when the catalyst (as the surfactant) and H(2)O(2) (30 %) are mixed in the diesel. However, the catalyst can be separated from the diesel after demulsification.     

Dimethylaminoborane (H2BNMe2) coordination to late transition metal centers: snapshots of the B-H oxidative addition process

The reaction of cyclodiborazane [Me(2)N-BH(2)](2) with the chloro(dihydrogen) ruthenium complex RuHCl(η(2)-H(2))(P(i)Pr(3))(2) (1) led to the formation of the unsymmetricaly coordinated dimethylaminoborane complex RuHCl(H(2)BNMe(2))(P(i)Pr(3))(2) (2). The dimethylaminoborane coordination (H(2)BNMe(2)) to the ruthenium center in 2 was carefully studied by combining X-ray, multinuclear NMR, and density functional theory (DFT) techniques, and compared with the recently reported osmium analogue which was originally formulated as a σ-B-H borinium complex [OsH(2)Cl(HBNMe(2))(P(i)Pr(3))(2)] (4). All our data are in favor of a bis(σ-B-H) coordination mode at a very activated stage in the case of the ruthenium complex 2, whereas in the osmium complex 4, full oxidative addition is favored leading to a complex better formulated as an osmium(IV) boryl species with an α-agostic B-H interaction. The synthesis and characterization of the symmetrical dihydride complex RuH(2)(H(2)BNMe(2))(P(i)Pr(3))(2) (3) from addition of the lithium dimethylaminoborohydride to 1 is reported for comparison.     

Spectrophotometric determination of osmium with p-(morpholino)-n-(4'-hydroxy-3'-methoxy)benzylidineaniline

A sensitive spectrophotometric determination of osmium is based on the blue color (absorption maximum at 615 mμ formed by reaction of osmium with p-(morpholino)-N-(4'-hydroxy-3'-methoxy)benzylidineaniline (“anil”) in acetate-buffered solution containing ethanol to prevent formation of a precipitate, Full color development is attained in I h at room temperature, and the color is stable for several hours. The absorbance is reproducible. The optimum concentration range for I-cm optical path is about I to 4 p.p.m. of osmium. Several transition elements interfere ; osmium can be separated as its tetroxide by the usual distillation method. The blue product is a cationic complex formed by reaction of anil with osmium in a 2 : I mole ratio. When osmium is in excess a red cationic complex (absorption maximum at 466 mμ) is formed by a I : I reaction between osmium and the reagent. The I : I complex is slowly converted to the 2 : I complex by excess reagent.     

Small changes—Huge influences: NMR chemical shifts of Ni(II) complexes with polar substrates

Neutral Ni(II) complexes have been shown to be highly valuable as robust and versatile catalysts in olefin polymerization. But they show reduced reactivity when the polar monomers methyl acrylate and vinyl acetate are incorporated. To get further insight into this behavior, NMR chemical shift calculations were performed on the system [(N,O) Ni (H) (PMe3)] 1 (N,O = ‐N,O‐{2,6‐(3,5‐(F3C)2C6H3)2C6H3) NC(H)‐3,5‐I2‐2‐O‐C6H2}). The chemical shifts show reasonable agreement with experiment but are also extremely influenced by geometrical features of the complex as well as the inserted substrate. The first prominent feature, the low‐field shift of the C_carbonyl in the incorporated monomer, can only be reproduced when it is in close proximity to the Ni and in this way hinders the attack of a new monomer. Second, the almost 100 ppm difference in the chemical shift of the carbon of the two substrates directly bound to Ni can be reasoned by the different directionality of polarization as disclosed by natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

PNP pincer osmium polyhydrides for catalytic dehydrogenation of primary alcohols

This paper reports the synthesis, structure, and properties of a series of PNP pincer complexes of osmium OsH(3)Cl[HN(C(2)H(4)P(i)Pr(2))(2)] (1), OsH(3)[N(C(2)H(4)P(i)Pr(2))(2)] (2), OsH(4)[HN(C(2)H(4)P(i)Pr(2))(2)] (3), and OsH(2)(PMe(3))[HN(C(2)H(4)P(i)Pr(2))(2)] (4). The tetrahydride 3 operates as an efficient catalyst at 0.1 mol% loading for the reactions of amination and dehydrogenative coupling of primary alcohols, producing secondary amines and symmetrical esters, respectively. The catalyst 3 is distinguished by outstanding stability, and it can be used in an aqueous environment at temperatures as high as 200 °C.     

Activation of metal hydride complexes by tri-tert-butylphosphine-platinum and -palladium groups

The compounds HM(CO)4SnPh3, M = Os (10), Ru (11) are activated in the presence of Pt(PBut3)2 and Pd(PBu(t)3)2 toward the insertion of PhC2H into the M-H bond. The compounds PtOs(CO)4(SnPh3)(PBu(t)3)[mu-HCC(H)Ph], 12, and PtOs(CO)4(SnPh3)(PBu(t)3)[mu-H2CCPh], 13, were obtained from the reaction of 10 with PhC2H in the presence of Pt(PBu(t)3)2. Compounds 12 and 13 are isomers containing alkenyl ligands formed by the insertion of the PhC2H molecule into the Os-H bond at both the substituted and unsubstituted carbon atoms of the alkyne. Both compounds contain a Pt(PBu(t)3) group that is bonded to the osmium atom and a bridging alkenyl ligand that is pi-bonded to the osmium atom. The reaction of 11 with PhC2H in the presence of Pt(PBu(t)3)2 yielded the products PtRu(CO)4(SnPh3)(PBu(t)3)[mu-HC2(H)Ph], 14, and PtRu(CO)4(SnPh3)(PBut3)[mu-H2C2Ph], 15, which are also isomers similar to 12 and 13. The reaction of 11 with PhC2H in the presence of Pd(PBu(t)3)2 yielded the product PdRu(CO)4(SnPh3)(PBu(t)3)[mu-H2C2Ph], 16. Compound 16 contains a Pd(PBu(t)3) group bonded to the ruthenium atom and a bridging H2C2Ph ligand that is pi-bonded to the palladium atom. Compound 10 reacted with Pt(PBu(t)3)2 in the absence of PhC2H to yield the compound PtOs(CO)4(SnPh3)(PBu(t)3)(mu-H), 17. Compound 17 is a Pt(PBu(t)3) adduct of 10. It contains a Pt-Os bond with a bridging hydrido ligand. Compound 17 reacted with PhC2H to yield 12. Compound 12 reacted with PhC2H to yield the compound PtOs(CO)3(SnPh3)(PBu(t)3)[mu-HCC(Ph)C(H)C(H)Ph], 18. Compound 18 contains a bridging 2,4-diphenylbutadienyl ligand, HCC(Ph)C(H)C(H)Ph, that is pi-bonded to the osmium atom and sigma-bonded to the platinum atom. Fenkse-Hall molecular orbitals of 17 were calculated. The LUMO of 17 exhibits an empty orbital on the platinum atom that appears to be the most likely site for PhC2H addition prior to its insertion into the Os-H bond.     

过氧化氢在黄铁矿的溶解过程中对铼-锇信号强度及年龄的影响

对黄铁矿在高温高压密闭的Carius管溶解过程中出现的黄色沉淀物进行了定性研究。在黄铁矿中加入少量的辉钼矿及185Re和190Os混合稀释剂,在常规的逆王水溶矿过程中加入适量H2O2,用ICP-MS检测,研究了H2O2对Re、Os信号强度变化及同位素交换平衡产生的影响。结果表明,在黄铁矿溶解过程中出现的黄色沉淀物为羟基硫酸铁(FeOHSO4)而不是单质硫,它是由于密闭的Carius管内氧化性不够而生成的。H2O2的加入对ICP-MS测定Re信号强度没有影响,而对Os则有显著的改善,但这种改善并未影响到加入的185Re和190Os稀释剂与样品中的Re和Os达到同位素交换平衡,因而也不影响到样品的Re、Os含量及最终的Re-Os同位素年龄计算。
