Thermodynamic characteristics of the heparin-leucine-CaCl2 system in a diluted physiological solution

Chemical equilibria in aqueous solutions of high-molecular weight heparin (Na₄hep) and leucine (HLeu) are calculated through the mathematical modeling of chemical equilibria based on representative experimental pH titration data. In addition, chemical equilibria in the CaCl₂-Na₄hep-HLeu-H₂O-NaCl system in the presence of 0.154M NaCl background electrolyte at a temperature of 37°C in the range of 2.30 ≤ pH ≤ 10.50 and initial concentrations of basic components n × 10^?3 M (n ≤ 4).     

Calculation of chemical equilibria in CaCl<Subscript>2</Subscript>-heparin-sodium adenosinetriphosphate and MgCl<Subscript>2</Subscript>-heparin-sodium adenosinetriphosphate systems in physiological salines

Chemical equilibria in aqueous solutions of disodium adenosinetriphosphate (Na₂H₂ATP), high-molecular-weight heparin (H₄Hep) and Na₂H₂ATP and in MCl₂-H₄Hep-Na₂H₂ATP-H₂O-NaCl (M = Ca²⁺ or Mg²⁺) solutions in the 0.15 M NaCl background were studied using computer simulation and pH titration at 2.3 ≤ pH ≤ 10.5. Formation constants were determined for two protonated ATP species, three protonated complex species of heparin with ATP of equimolar stoichiometry, and mixed-ligand calcium and magnesium complexes with heparin and adenosinetriphosphate. The formation constants for mixed-ligand calcium(II) complexes with heparin are more than two times those of homoligand calcium complexes with heparin. As a result, the Ca²⁺ ion concentration at 6.8 ≤ pH ≤ 7.4 (the pH range of blood plasma stability) decreases from 40 to 100 wt % depending on the ratio of the initial concentrations of CaCl₂, H₄Hep, and Na₂H₂ATP.

Chemical equilibria in the high-molecular-weight heparin (Na₄hep)-arginine (HArg)-H₂O-NaCl and MCl₂-Na₄hep-HArg-H₂O-NaCl systems of electrolytes (M = Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺) were calculated by the method of mathematical simulation of chemical equilibria from representative planned pH-metric titration experiment at 2.30 ≤ pH ≤ 10.50 in a physiological solution medium in the presence of 0.154 M NaCl as a background electrolyte at 37°C. The initial concentrations of the basic components were n × 10⁻³ M (n ≤ 4).     

Crystal structure and triboluminescence of the [Tb(BTFA)2(NO3)(TPPO)2] complex

The crystal structure of the [Tb(BTFA)₂(NO₃)(TPPO)₂] complex (TPPO is triphenylphosphine oxide, BTFA is benzoyltrifluoracetone), which exhibits strong triboluminescence, has been established by X-ray crystallography. The crystals are triclinic: a = 11.668(3) Å, b = 11.700(3) Å, c = 12.512(3) Å, α = 65.161(4°), β = 79.120(4)°, γ = 61.860(4)°, space group P1, Z = 1. The central terbium(III) atom coordinates two oxygen atoms from two triphenylphosphine oxide molecules (Tb-O, 2.264(3) and 2.273(3) Å), two oxygen atoms from the nitrate group (Tb-O, 2.460(3) and 2.476(3) Å), and four oxygen atoms from two benzoyltrifluoroacetonate groups (Tb-O, 2.329(3), 2.399(3), 2.351(3), and 2.367(3) Å). The coordination polyhedron of the Tb(III) atom is a distorted dodecahedron. The photoluminescence and triboluminescence spectra of the [Tb(BTFA)₂(NO₃)(TPPO)₂] complex are identical and caused by the f-f luminescence of Tb³⁺.     

Vapour-Liquid and Liquid-Solid Equilibria in the System Th(NO3)4-UO2(NO3)2-HNO3-H2O

Vapour-liquid and liquid-solid equilibria were studied in the system Th(NO₃)₄-UO₂(NO₃)₂-HNO₃-H₂O. Hexahydrate of thorium nitrate as well as hexa- and trihydrate of uranyl nitrate were supposed to be formed in this system. Empiric equations of solubility isotherms were derived for 25 °C and liquid phase densities were determined. It was established that nitric acid was salted out into the vapour phase by the nitrates present in the system both separately and simultaneously. Empiric equation was derived that describes the relationship between the HNO₃ concentration of condensate and that of all liquid phase components.     

Luminescent properties of Ba_3(PO_4)_2:Eu,Tb phosphors

Luminescence of europium (Ⅲ),europium(Ⅱ) and terbium(Ⅲ) has been observed in Bas(PO4)2:Eu,Tb phosphors which are synthesized in air atmosphere.The valence state of europium is influenced by amount of terbium.It is notable that the relative intensity of the emission spectra peaks corresponding to Eu2+ is increased if the amount of Tb3+ is increased.These phenomena can be explained by an electron transfer mechanism.We predict a new kind of two-rare-earth codoped trichromatic phosphors in Ba3(PO4)2 matrix.

The compositions of CsZrF₂PO₄ · H₂O, Cs_0.70ZrF(PO₄)_1.23 · nH₂O, and CsHZr₂F₂(PO₄)_2.66 · nH₂O are conditional. All the compounds were characterized by crystal-optical, X-ray powder diffraction, thermal analyses, and IR spectroscopy. The formula CsHZrF₃PO₄ was established by energy-dispersive analysis with a LEO-1450 scanning electron microscope and an MS-46 CAMECA X-ray microanalyzer.     

Phase formation in the HfO(NO3)2-H3PO4-CsF(HF)-H2O system

The phase formation in the system HfO(NO₃)₂-H₃PO₄-CsF(HF)-H₂O was studied along the sections at the molar ratios PO ₄ ^3? /Hf = 0.5, 1.5, and 2.0 and RbF:Hf = 1?C5, and also in the presence of HF at CsF: Hf = 1. The initial solutions contained 2?C24 wt % HfO₂. The synthesis was performed at room temperature.

The compositions of the amorphous phases should be refined. Cesium fluorophosphate hafnates were obtained for the first time.

Synthesis and photoluminescence of the solid phases of the binary system of mixed-ligand Eu(III) and Tb(III) dithiophosphinate complexes

Solid phases of the [Eu(Phen)(i-Bu₂PS₂)₂(NO₃)]–[Tb(Phen)(i-Bu₂PS₂)₂(NO₃)] binary system are synthesized. The results of X-ray diffraction phase analysis and photoluminescence measurements allow the synthesized isostructural phases to be classed with substitutional solid solutions. The photoluminescence measurements revealed Tb(III)→Eu(III) energy transfer which induces Eu³⁺ luminescence.     

Synthese und Kristallstruktur von Terbium(III)‐meta‐Oxoborat Tb(BO2)3 (≡ TbB3O6)

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Terbium(III) meta‐Oxoborate Tb(BO₂)₃ (≡ TbB₃O₆) The terbium meta‐oxoborate Tb(BO₂)₃ (≡ TbB₃O₆) is obtained as single crystals by the reaction of terbium, Tb₄O₇ and TbCl₃ with an excess of B₂O₃ in gastight sealed platinum ampoules at 950 °C after three weeks. The compound appears to be air‐ and water‐resistant and crystallizes as long, thin, colourless needles which tend to growth‐twinning due to their marked fibrous habit. The crystal structure of Tb(BO₂)₃ (orthorhombic, Pnma; a = 1598.97(9), b = 741.39(4), c = 1229.58(7) pm; Z = 16) contains strongly corrugated oxoborate layers {(BO₂)^‐} built of vertex‐linked [BO₄]^5‐ tetrahedra (d(B‐O) = 143 ‐ 154 pm, ?(O‐B‐O) = 102‐115°) which spread out parallel (100). The four crystallographically different Tb³⁺ cations all exhibit coordination numbers of eight towards the oxygen atoms (d(Tb‐O) = 228‐287 pm). The corresponding metal cation polyhedra [TbO₈]¹³⁺ too convene to layers (composition: {(Tb₂O₁₁)^16‐}) which are likewise oriented parallel to the (100) plane.     

Mixed-ligand complexation of calcium and magnesium ions with heparin and glycine

Chemical equilibria in dilute aqueous solutions containing high-molecular-weight heparin (Na₄hep) and Glycine (HGly), as well as in solutions of the MCl₂-Na₄hep-HGly-H₂O-NaCl system (M = Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺) against the background of 0.15 M NaCl at 37°C, have been studied by mathematical modeling of chemical equilibria on the basis of pH-metric titration data. The model of equilibria of the Na₄hep-HGly-H₂O-NaCl system for the range 2.30 ≤ pH ≤ 10.50 at different ratios of initial heparin and glycine concentrations showed that, in the pH range of blood plasma stability (pH 6.80–7.40), the protonated H H₃hepGly₃⁴⁻ species prevailed. This was supported by UV absorption spectra of heparin and glycine solutions in the presence of 0.15 M NaCl and absorbance dynamics for solutions containing heparin and glycine. The results of modeling equilibria in the five-component MCl₂-Na₄hep-HGly-H₂O-NaCl systems (M = Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺) showed that the Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ ions form with heparin and glycine stable protonated mixed-ligand complexes M H₃hepGly₃²⁻. The formation constants of these species are one order of magnitude higher than the formation constants of the homoligand calcium and magnesium with heparin. In the pH range 6.80–7.40, the calcium content decreases depending on the ratio of the initial concentrations of Na₄hep, HGly, and CaCl₂: at the 1 : 3 : 1 ratio, it decreases by a factor of 5.7 owing to the formation of the predominant species CaH₃hepGly₃²⁻, and at equimolar amounts of the reagents (1 : 1 : 1), the calcium content decreases by a factor of 3.5 (the CaH₃hepGly₃²⁻ concentration is three time as low as the NaCahep⁻ concentration).     

Synthesis and crystal structures of zirconium(IV) nitrate complexes (NO2)[Zr(NO3)3(H2O)3]2(NO3) 3, Cs[Zr(NO3)5], and (NH4)[Zr(NO3)5](HNO3)

The zirconium nitrate complexes (NO₂)[Zr(NO₃)₃(H₂O)₃]₂(NO₃)₃ (1), Cs[Zr(NO₃)₅] ((2), (NH₄)[Zr(NO₃)₅](HNO₃) (3), and (NO₂)_0.23(NO)_0.77[Zr(NO₃)₅] ((4) were prepared by crystallization from nitric acid solutions in the presence of H₂SO₄ or P₂O₅. The complexes were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure of 1 consists of nitrate anions, nitronium cations, and [Zr(NO₃)₃(H₂O)₃]⁺ complex cations in which the Zr^IV atom is coordinated by three water molecules and three bidentate nitrate groups. The coordination polyhedron of the Zr^IV atom is a tricapped trigonal prism formed by nine oxygen atoms. The island structures of 2 and 3 contain [Zr(NO₃)₅]^? anions and Cs⁺ or NH₄ ⁺ cations, respectively. In addition, complex 3 contains HNO₃ molecules. Complex 4 differs from (NO₂)[Zr(NO₃)₅] in that three-fourth of the nitronium cations in 4 are replaced by nitrosonium cations NO⁺, resulting in a decrease in the unit cell parameters. In the [Zr(NO₃)₅]^? anion involved in complexes 2–4, the Zr^IV atom is coordinated by five bidentate nitrate groups and has an unusually high coordination number of 10. The coordination polyhedron is a bicapped square antiprism.     

Gel formation in extraction of terbium by bis(2-ethylhexyl) hydrogen phosphate

Gel formation has been studied in the bulk of the organic phase and in the interphase of the Tb(OH)₃ (Tb(NO₃)₃)-bis(2-ethylhexyl) hydrogen phosphate-decane-water systems. In the Tb(OH)₃-HDEHP-decane-water system, gel formation is observed over the bulk of the organic phase when $c_{HDEHP} /c_{Tb(OH)_3 } $ ≤ 1.8. A structured layer several tens of micrometers thick is formed when an aqueous Tb(NO₃)₃ solution is in contact with an HDEHP solution in decane. The share of the structured layer in the interphase increases from 0 to about 90% as the terbium concentration increases. The structured layer that appears during the extraction of terbium by HDEHP in decane consists of both amorphous portions and portions dominated by acicular crystals.

The compounds were studied by crystal-optical, elemental, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric, IR spectroscopic, and electron microscopic analyses.     

The Stereochemical Activity of the Lone Pair in [Bi(NO3)3{(iPrO)2(O)PCH2P(O)(OiPr)2}2] — Comparison of Bismuth,Lanthanum and Praseodymium Nitrate Complexes

Five coordination compounds of bismuth, lanthanum and praseodymium nitrate with the oxygen‐coordinating chelate ligand (ⁱPrO)₂(O)PCH₂P(O)(OⁱPr)₂ (L) are reported: [Bi(NO₃)₃(L)₂] ( 1 ), [La(NO₃)₃(L)₂] ( 2 ), [Pr(NO₃)₃(L)₂] ( 3 ), [La(NO₃)₃(L)(H₂O)] ( 4 ) and [Pr(NO₃)₃(L)(H₂O)] ( 5 ). The compounds were characterized by means of single crystal X‐ray crystallography, ¹H and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy in solution, solid‐state ³¹P NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, DTA‐TG measurements ( 1 , 2 and 4 ), conductometry and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI‐MS). In addition, DFT calculations for model compounds of 1 and 2 support our experimental work. In the solid state mononuclear coordination compounds were observed for 1 — 3 , whereas compounds 4 and 5 gave one‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded polymers via water‐nitrate coordination. Despite of the similar ionic radii of bismuth(III), lanthanum(III) and praseodymium(III) for a given coordination number the bismuth and lanthanide compounds 1 — 3 are not isostructural. The bismuth compound 1 shows a 9‐coordinate bismuth atom whereas lanthanum(III) and praseodymium(III) atoms are 10‐coordinate in the lanthanide complexes 2 — 5 . The general LnO₁₀ coordination motif in compounds 2 — 5 is best described as a distorted bi‐capped square antiprism. The BiO₉ polyhedron might be deduced from the LnO₁₀ polyhedron by replacing one oxygen ligand with a stereochemically active lone pair. The one‐to‐one complexes 4 and 5 dissociate in solution to give the corresponding one‐to‐two complexes 2 and 3 , respectively, and solvated Ln(NO₃)₃. In contrast to the lanthanides, the one‐to‐two bismuth complex 1 is less stable in CH₃CN solution and partially dissociates to give solvated Bi(NO₃)₃ and (ⁱPrO)₂(O)PCH₂P(O)(OⁱPr)₂.

The compound consists of [Cu(m-HBH)₂(OH₂)₂]²⁺ complex cations, NO ₃ ^? anions, and two water molecules. The similarity between the IR spectra of Cu(m-HBH)₂(NO₃)₂·nH₂O and Co(m-HBH)₂(NO₃)₂·5H₂O, element analysis data, and crystal data obtained at the first stage of X-ray analysis show that the structures and compositions of these compounds are identical relative to the type of surroundings of the central atom. In contrast to the cobalt compound [Co(m-HBH)₂(OH₂)₂](NO₃)₂·3H₂O, in which the cobalt atom has a nearly regular octahedron as a coordination polyhedron, the copper(II) compound has a square bipyramid around the copper atom; c.n. is 6 = 4 + 2 (planar distances: 2.013(2) Å, 2.021(2) Å, 2.033(3) Å, 2.087(3) Å; axial distances: 2.367(3) Å, 2.374(3) Å) and lacks one crystallization water molecule.
