Selected extraction systems of TcO ₄ ^– –(H,Na)A–H₂O/R(TcO₄,A)–CHCl₃, C₆H₅NO₂ type, where A=Cl^–, NO ₃ ^– , ClO ₄ ^– , R=(C₆H₅)₄As⁺, were studied. The solvent extraction of sub- and super-stoichiometric ratio of TcR was performed. The solubility of (C₆H₅)₄AsTcO₄ in water, chloroform and nitrobenzene were determined too. The results of the extractions are presented in the form of TcO ₄ ^– distribution dependencies on the phase composition and the extraction constants of individual TcO ₄ ^– , Cl^–, NO ₃ ^– , ClO ₄ ^– anions and TcO ₄ ^– -Cl^–, TcO ₄ ^– –NO ₃ ^– , TcO ₄ ^– –ClO ₄ ^– ion pairs.     

Extraction of HCl,HBr, HNO3, HClO4, H2SO4 and CH3COOH by 4-(5-Nonyl)pyridine and 2-hexylpyridine in benzene and determination of their pKBH+ values

The extraction of HCl, HBr, HNO₃, HClO₄, H₂SO₄ and CH₃COOH into solutions of 4-(5-nonyl)pyridine (NPy) and 2-hexylpyridine (HPy) dissolved in benzene has been studied. The results show that the larger, less basic anions extract better (ClO ₄ ⁻ >CH₃COO⁻≥NO ₃ ⁻ >Br⁻>Cl⁻>HSO ₄ ⁻ ) due to their low aqueous hydration. The ionization constants of NPyH⁺ and HPyH⁺ as determined spectrophotometrically were found to be 5.97±0.06 and 5.94±0.05, respectively, at 25°C.     

Catecholase biomimetic catalytic activity of copper(II) complexes with 2-methyl-3-amino-(3H)-quinazolin-4-one

The oxidation of catechol by molecular oxygen in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper(II) complex with 2-methyl-3-amino-(3H)quinazoline-4-one (MAQ) and various anions (Cl⁻, Br⁻, ClO ₄ ⁻ , SCN⁻, NO ₃ ⁻ and SO ₄ ^– ) was studied. The catecholase biomimetic catalytic activity of the copper(II) complexes has been determined spectrophotometrically by monitoring the oxidative transformation of catechol to the corresponding light absorbing o-quinone (Q). The rate of the catalytic oxidation reaction was investigated and correlated with the catalyst structure, time, concentration of catalyst and substrate and finally solvent effects. Addition of pyridine or Et₃N showed a dramatic effect on the rate of oxidation reaction. Kinetic investigations demonstrate that the rate of oxidation reaction has a first order dependence with respect to the catalyst and catechol concentration and obeying Michaelis–Menten Kinetics. It was shown that the catalytic activity depends on the coordination environment of the catalyst created by the nature of counter anions bound to copper(II) ion in the complex molecule and follows the order: Cl⁻ > NO ₃ ⁻ > Br⁻ > SO ₄ ^– > SCN⁻ > ClO ₄ ⁻ . To further elucidate the catalytic activity of the complexes, their electrochemical properties were investigated and the catecholase mimetic activity has been correlated with the redox potential of the Cu²⁺/Cu⁺ couple in the complexes.     

H-D isotope effects in the extraction systems tri-n-octyl amine—Mineral acids

The use of appreciable H-D isotope effects in the infrared spectra of normal and deuterated salts of tri-n-octyl amine (TOAHX or TAODX, where X=Cl, Br, I, HSO₄, NO₃ and ClO₄), the investigation of the chemical shift of the NH proton in NMR spectra, the results of chemical analysis (H₂ O, D₂ O acid) and the osmometrical data allow to explain some questions concerning the structure and to discuss the strength of the hydrogen bonds in associates TOAH⁺X⁻ and their hydration. From this comparison it follows that the strength of hydrogen bond in TOAH⁺X⁻ (TOAD⁺X⁻) increases in the order of ClO ₄ ⁻ <HSO ₄ ⁻ <I⁻Br<NO ₃ ⁻ <Cl⁻. H-D isotope effects are discussed in the association of these salts.

Synthesis of stereoisomers of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p-tert</Emphasis>-butylthiacalix[4]arenes tetrasubstituted at the lower rim containing secondary amide groups and their complexation with a number of singly charged anions

The ability of new synthetic receptors, i.e., p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arenes tetrasubstituted at the lower rim and containing secondary amide groups to form complexes with a number of spherical (F⁻, Cl⁻, Br⁻, I⁻), Y-shaped (MeCOO⁻), trigonal (NO₃ ⁻), and tetrahedral (H₂POO₄ ⁻) anions has been studied. It was shown that the nature of substituents on the nitrogen atom of the amide groups and configuration of the macrocycle affect the stability constant values of the forming complexes.     

Extraction of pertechnetate anion as a ligand in metal complexes with tributylphosphate

The extraction of the pertechnetate anion has been investigated in the systems tributylphosphate (TBP)—solvent (carbon tetrachloride, n-heptane, chloroform)—metal salt (uranyl nitrate and chloride, thorium nitrate)—ammonium salt. In the absence of a metal, the solvates HTeO₄. iTBP (i=4) are extracted, while in the presence of uranium and thorium, the distribution of technetium corresponds to the formation of the mixed complexes: UO₂(NO₃)(TeO₄)·2TBP, UO₂Cl(TcO₄)·2TBP and Th(NO₃)₃ (TcO₁)·2TBP. The effective constants of the reactions H⁺+TcO ₄ ⁻ +i(TBP)_org←(HTcO₁·iTBP)_org, and (ML_n·2TBP)_org+TcO ₄ ⁻ ←(ML_n−1TcO₄·2TBP)_org+L were established in the above systems. The extraction of pertechnetate ion is more effective when it is coordinated to a cation solvated by TBP than the extraction in the form of pertechnetate acid solvated by TBP.     

Synthesis and anion recognition of neutral receptors based on multiamide calix[4]arene

Two multiamide calix[4]arenes (5, 6) were synthesized and characterized by NMR, MS and elemental analysis. The binding properties of receptors with some anions (π-O₂NPhOPO₃²⁻, π-O₂NPhO⁻, H₂PO₄⁻, Ac⁻, Cl⁻, Br⁻ and I⁻) were studied by UV-Vis spectra. The results indicate that the tetraamide calix[4]arenes (5, 6) have a good selectivity to the anions containing aromatic ring (π-O₂NPhOPO₃ ²⁻, π-O₂NPhO⁻). The 1 : 1 complexes between host and guest were formed through multiple hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions. The hosts 5 and 6 also show a definite binding ability for the anions (H₂PO₄⁻, Ac⁻, Cl⁻) that have no ultraviolet absorption, which provides a simple method of spectrum detection for these anions.     

Photochemistry of tetraalkylammonium tetrachlorocuprates in low-temperature matrices

The product composition and the principles of photochemical transformations of tetrahexylammonium tetrachlorocuprate [(RH)₄N⁺]₂[Cu^IICl₄]²⁻ (RH = C₆H₁₃) in 2-chlorobutane at 77 K have been found out by ESR spectroscopy. It has been shown that the photolysis of [(RH)₄N⁺]₂ [Cu^IICl₄]²⁻ results in the formation of alkyl radicals (R^⊙), presumably, anions [Cu^ICl₃]²⁻ and organic copper(II) compounds {Cu^IIR}. A reduction in the quantum yield of primary photolysis products during the reaction, nonequivalence of the quantum yield of the buildup of paramagnetic photolysis products to that of [Cu^IICl₄]²⁻ consumption, and a decrease in the total number of paramagnetic particles in the system during the photolysis have been revealed. A photolysis mechanism involving both photochemical and thermal processes is proposed.     

Crystal and molecular structure of diphenyliodonium triiodide

A new salt diphenyliodonium triiodide (C₁₂H₁₀I₄) was obtained. The [C₁₂H₁₀I⁺][I₃⁻] compound was isolated as red brown crystals and studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure of diphenyliodonium triiodide consists of separate, virtually linear I₃⁻ anions and C₁₂H₁₀I⁺ cations. Strong intermolecular anion-anion (I₃⁻…I₃⁻) and anion-cation (I₃⁻…I⁺) interactions in the crystal structure leads to a change in the symmetry of triiodide ions. The complex formation in the system organic cation iodide-elementary iodine was studied by spectrophotometry. The complex composition was found (1: 1), and the stability constant of the complex in chloroform was determined (loggB = 3.91).     

Some applications of positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy to complex formation and ion association studies

The rate constants for the reactions of positronium with halogen molecules and with halide ions in methanol (I₂, Br₂, Cl⁻, Br⁻) and in dimethylsulphoxide (I₂, Cl⁻) have been measured. The variations of the ortho-positronium lifetime in mixtures of these solutes have been used for quantitative determination of the formation constants of the corresponding polyhalides. These were found to be 2.9 and 5.4 M⁻¹, respectively, for I₂Cl⁻ and I₂Br⁻ in methanol and 2.0 M⁻¹ for I₂Cl⁻ in dimethylsulphoxide. Experiments on acidified AgClO₄ solutions confirmed the formation, at molar concentrations, of the Ag₂ ClO ₄ ⁺ species, very probably a triplet ion association.     

Simultaneous determination of silicic acid, Ca, Mg and Al in mineral water and composite tablets by Ion chromatography

Summary A simple, selective and sensitive ion-chromatography method was investigated for simultaneously determining silicic acid, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Al³⁺ and anions (Cl⁻ and NO ₃ ⁻ ) in real samples. It involved a single-column ion-chromatograph with sodium hydroxide-methanol-water eluent and conductometric detection. Cations were converted to complex anions by adding EDTA to the sample solution. A set of well-defined peaks of silicic acid, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Al³⁺, Cl⁻ and NO ₃ ⁻ were obtained. Detection limits using 3.3σ (σ=standard deviation of blank solution) were 1.25×10⁻⁶ M for H₃SiO ₄ ⁻ , 1.32×10⁻⁶ M for Ca²⁺, 1.28×10⁻⁶ M for Mg²⁺, 1.33×10⁻⁶ M for Al³⁺, 1.31×10⁻⁶ M for Cl⁻ and 1.24×10⁻⁶ M for NO ₃ ⁻ . The method was successfully applied to analysis of mineral water and composite tablets.     

Kinetics of oxidation of pyridoxine by anodically generated manganese(III) in aqueous acetic acid medium

Summary Manganese(III) acetate was prepared by the electrolytic oxidation of Mn(OAc)₂ in aqueous AcOH. The electro-generated manganese(III) species was characterised by spectroscopic and redox potential studies. The kinetics of oxidation of pyridoxine (PRX) by manganese(III) in aqueous AcOH were investigated and is first order with respect to [Mn^III]. The effects of varying [Mn^III], [PRX], added manganese(II), pH and added anions such as AcO⁻, F⁻, Cl⁻ and ClO _inf4 ^sup− and SO _inf4 ^sup2− were studied. The rate decreased slowly with increasing [H⁺] up to 0.2 mol dm⁻³ and increased steeply thereafter. The orders in [PRX] and [Mn^II] were unity and inverse fractional, respectively, in both low and high [H⁺] ranges. The dependence of reaction rate on temperature was studied and activation parameters were computed from Arrhenius and Eyring plots. A mechanism consistent with the observed results is proposed and discussed.

Synthesis, characterisation and chemical reactivity of some new dioxouranium(VI) complexes of 2-aminobenzoylhydrazone of butane-2,3-dione

A new series of dioxouranium(VI) complexes of a potential ONNO tetradentate donor 2-aminobenzoylhydrazone of butane-2,3-dione (L₁H₂) have been synthesized. At pH 2·5–4·0, the donor (L₁H₂) reacts in the keto form and complexes of the type [UO₂(L₁H₂)(X)₂] (X⁻=Cl⁻, Br⁻, NO ₃ ⁻ , NCS⁻, ClO ₄ ⁻ , CH₃COO⁻, 1/2SO ₄ ²⁻ ) are obtained. At higher pH (6·5–7), the complex of the enol form having the formula [UO₂(L₁)(H₂O)] has been isolated. On reaction with a monodentate lewis base (B), both types of complexes yield adducts of the type [UO₂(L₁)(B)]. All these complexes have been characterised adequately by elemental analyses and other standard physicochemical techniques. Location of the bonding sites of the donor molecule around the uranyl ion, status of the uranium-oxygen bond and the probable structure of the complexes have also been discussed.     

Solvent Effects on Ion-Pair Distribution and Dimerization of Tetraalkylammonium Salts

Summary.  The distribution of tetraalkylammonium ions (C _n H _2n+1 )₄N⁺ (R ⁺, TAAn ⁺, n = 4–7) with picrate ion (pic ⁻) and inorganic anions X ⁻, (Cl⁻, Br⁻, ClO⁻ ₄), into various inert organic solvents was studied at 25.0°C. The distribution data were analyzed by taking into consideration the distribution of ion pairs, R ⁺ · X ⁻, and the dimerization of the ion pairs, (R ⁺ · X ⁻)₂, in the organic phase. The ion-pair, distribution constant, K _dist, increases with increasing chain length of the tetraalkylammonium ion and with increasing ionic radius of the anion. The values of K _dist show a good correlation with the E _T value of solvent, i.e. the solvation ability with respect to the anion, and smoothly increase with increasing E _T. The effect of the solvent on the dimerization constants, K _dim, is markedly different between the ion pairs of picrate ion and inorganic anions. In the case of picrate, K _dim significantly decreases with decreasing length of the alkyl chain of the tetraalkylammonium ion, but hardly changes by changing the solvent. On the other hand, in the case of ion pairs of inorganic anions the value of K _dim decreases with decreasing E _T and is almost constant for all anions. These results were reasonably explained by the difference of the solvation of the anion moieties of the monomeric and dimeric ion pairs. Received May 15, 2001. Accepted (revised) July 18, 2001

Oxidation of (η5-6-exo-cyclopentadienylcyclohexadienyl)- (η5-cyclopentadienyl) iron by trityl hexafluorophosphateby trityl hexafluorophosphate

Oxidation of the cyclohexadienyl complex Fe(η⁵-C₅H₅)(1-5-7⁵-6-exo-C₅H₅-C₆H₆) (2) by (Ph₃C)PF₆ (CH₂Cl₂, from −30 to +20 °C) occurs as two concurrent processes: elimination of an H atom from the cyclohexadienyl ligand and replacement of an H atom in the cyclopentadienyl ring by a CPh₃ fragment. A mixture of cationic complexes [Fe(η⁵-C₅H₅) (η⁶-Ph-C₅H₅]⁺ (1⁺) and [Fe(η⁵-C₅H₄CPh₃) (η⁶-Ph-C₅H₅]⁺ (4⁺) (4 ⁺) with PF₆ ⁻ anions is obtained. Deprotonation of the mixture of 1⁺ and 4⁺ complexes under the action of Bu ^t OK inm-xylene followed by boiling of the reaction mixture gives phenylferrocene (7) as the product of η⁶:η⁶ haptotropic rearrangement.

Identification of Anionic Supramolecular Complexes of Sulfonamide Receptors with Cl<Superscript>−</Superscript>, NO<Stack><Subscript>3</Subscript><Superscript>−</Superscript></Stack>, Br<Superscript>−</Superscript>, and I<Superscript>−</Superscript> by APCI-MS

As part of a mass spectrometric investigation of the binding properties of sulfonamide anion receptors, an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometric (APCI-MS) method involving direct infusion followed by thermal desorption was employed for identification of anionic supramolecular complexes in dichloromethane (CH₂Cl₂). Specifically, the dansylamide derivative of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (tren) (1), the chiral 1,3-benzenesulfonamide derivatives of (1R,2S)-(+)-cis-1-amino-2-indanol (2), and (R)-(+)-bornylamine, (3), were shown to bind halide and nitrate ions in the presence of (n−Bu)₄N⁺X⁻ (X⁻ = Cl⁻, NO₃⁻, Br⁻, I⁻). Solutions of receptors and anions in CH₂Cl₂ were combined to form the anionic supramolecular complexes, which were subsequently introduced into the mass spectrometer via direct infusion followed by thermal desorption. The anionic supramolecular complexes [M+X]⁻, (M=1–3, X⁻=Cl⁻, NO₃⁻, Br⁻, I⁻) were observed in negative mode APCI-MS along with the deprotonated receptors [M−H]⁻. Full ionization energy of the APCI corona pin (4.5 kV) was necessary for obtaining mass spectra with the best signal-to-noise ratios.     

Solvent extraction behaviour of iodine and bromine in aqueous-organic systems,analogy with radioactive decay

The extraction of iodine and bromine under various conditions from their saturated aqueous solutions by CCl₄, C₆H₆ and o-xylene has been studied. The data obtained from the experiments carried out at various temperatures, for H₂O(I₂)−CCl₄ and H₂O(I₂)−C₆H₆ systems, exhibit an Arrhenius behaviour. The overall activation energy calculated for the extraction in the H₂O(I₂)−CCl₄ system, 650±50 cal·mol⁻¹ is lower than that of H₂O(I₂)−C₆H₆, 3600±300 cal·mol⁻¹. The use of the solubility parameter for the interpretation of the data in the extraction of iodine is investigated. The data obtained in multiple extractions are treated by using the analogy between extraction and radioactive decay. The half number of extraction for each system is determined. The complex curves obtained in the H₂O(I₂)−CCl₄ and H₂O(I₂) −Br₂)−CCl₄ systems are resolved into two components.
