Kinetics and mechanism of palladium(II) chloride catalysed oxidation of unsaturated acids by vanadium(V)

Summary The kinetics of the palladium(II) catalysed oxidation of acrylic, methacrylic and crotonic acid by vanadium(V), in acid medium at constant ionic strength exhibit zeroth order dependence on vanadium(V) and first order dependence on palladium(II) and the unsaturated acid. Complex formation between the palladium(II) species and the unsaturated acid, with possible exchange of chloride ion and hydrogen ion in two successive steps, was invoked. The reaction rate is determined by a rearrangement leading to elimination of chloride ion. A plausible mechanism is proposed.     

Kinetics and mechanism of palladium (II) chloride catalyzed oxidation of allyl alcohol by potassium hexacyanoferrate (III)

A kinetic study of the oxidation of allyl alcohol by potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) in the presence of palladium (II) chloride is reported. The reaction was observed by measuring the disappearance of the potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) spectrophotometrically. The reaction is first order with respect to allyl alcohol and palladium (II) chloride, inverse second order with respect to [Cl^?], and zero order with respect to potassium hexacyanoferrate (III). The rate is found to increase linearly with hydroxyl ion concentration.     

Extraction mechanism for palladium(II) from hydrochloric acid solution with 2-dodecylthiomethylpyridine using a stirred transfer cell.

2-Dodecylthiomethylpyridine (DTP) was newly synthesized to study its extraction properties for precious metals. DTP was a selective extractant for palladium(II) and gold(III) over base metals. The loading test for palladium(II) showed that one palladium ion reacted with one molecule of DTP. The extraction rate of palladium with DTP was measured using a Lewis-type transfer cell at 303 K. The extraction reaction of palladium with DTP has been found to be a first order reaction with respect to palladium ion, DTP, and hydrogen ion concentrations. This reaction is inversely proportional to chloride ion concentration. The rate-determining step was the parallel reactions of DTP with PdCl3(-) and PdCl4(2-) in the aqueous phase.     

Extraction of palladium(II) from hydrochloric acid solutions by (RS)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-pentan-3-ol

The extraction properties of (RS)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-pentan-3-ol (with chloroform as a diluent) with respect to palladium(II) were studied. Palladium(II) was found to be efficiently extracted by the reagent from 0.1–6 M HCl solutions by the coordination mechanism. The rate of palladium(II) recovery depends on the hydrochloric acid and chloride ion concentrations in the aqueous phase. Conditions for the selective separation of palladium(II) and copper(II) from nickel(II), cobalt(II), and iron(III) were determined.     

Investigation of DNA Binding Interaction of Newly Synthesized Nickel(II) and Palladium(II) Complexes Containing Ferrocenyl Schiff Base Ligand

New complexes of nickel(II) and palladium(II) were synthesized using the ferrocenyl imine ligand, which was formed by the condensation of 2‐aminothiophenol and acetylferrocene. This bidentate Schiff base ligand was coordinated to the metal ions through the NS donor atoms. Monomeric complexes of nickel(II) and palladium(II) were synthesized by the reactions of the Schiff base ligand with nickel(II) and palladium(II) chloride in a 2:1 M ratio. In these complexes, the thiol group was deprotonated and coordinated to the metals. The molar conductivity values of the complexes in DMSO showed the presence of non‐electrolyte species. The fluorescence characteristics of the Schiff base ligand and its complexes were studied in DMSO. The synthesized complexes were characterized by FT‐IR, ¹H NMR, UV–vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and conductometry. Furthermore, the binding interactions of the complexes with DNA were investigated by electronic absorption spectroscopy, and the intrinsic binding constant (K _b) was calculated. Moreover, viscosity and melting temperature (T _m) were investigated in order to further explore the nature of interactions between the complexes and DNA.     

Thermodynamic characteristics of the formation reactions of nickel(II) glycinates and the solvation of reagents in aqueous ethanol solutions

Enthalpies of complexation reactions between nickel(II) and the glycinate ion in mixtures of water with ethanol containing up to 0.5 mole fraction ethanol were obtained by the calorimetric titration method at 298 K. With increasing ethanol concentration exothermicity of complexation was found to increase slightly for the first coordination step. The results obtained were analyzed from the standpoint of solvation approach based on thermodynamic characteristics of all reagents. It was shown that the main cause of the increase in the exothermicity of complexation reactions is the weakening of ligand solvation with increasing ethanol concentration.     

Kinetic studies of ion-exchange of cobalt(II) and nickel(II) on a resin loaded with 5-sulpho-8-quinolinol

The mechanism of ion-exchange of cobalt(II) and nickel(II) on a resin loaded with 5-sulpho-8-quinolinol has been studied, and the chelate-forming reaction in the resin matrix shown to be rate-determining. The observed rate seems to be related to the rate of water-exchange with the metal ion in the aqueous phase, suggesting that complexation in the resin matrix may proceed according to the Eigen mechanism.     

Solvent extraction and spectrophotometric determination of palladium(II) with some nitrogen-containing heterocyclic hydrazones in the presence of chloride ions

Three terdentate hydrazones, all containing the 1-phthalazino grouping in the hydrazine moiety but differing in the heterocyclic substituent in the aldehyde moiety, have been used as analytical reagents for palladium(II), the optimal conditions for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of palladium(II) in the presence of chloride ions being deduced. These compounds are highly selective and sensitive reagents for palladium(II), since they are not extracted into chloroform from sulfuric acid solutions and do not react with other platinum group metals. The desirable spectral properties of the palladium(II) complex of benzothiazole-2-aldehyde-1-phthalazinohydrazone (BAPhH) have also been discussed with respect to preference of the C  N structural form in the heterocyclic ring on the aldehyde moiety of the ligand.     

Calculation of the equilibrium constants and cooperative parameters of formation of Cu(II) chloride complexes in nonaqueous solvents

Copper(II) distributions over chloride complexes in various organic solvents were analyzed in terms of a modified matrix model. The equilibrium coordination constants of a first ligand and the corrections for the mutual influence between the ligands during the complexation were calculated. It was demonstrated that displacement of the solvent molecule by a chloride ion from the inner coordination sphere of the Cu(II) ion is always of anticooperative character. In MeCN, addition of a chloride ion to a copper ion follows the simplest additive scheme of coordination of the ligand with equivalent coordination vacancies. Possible reasons for nonadditive complexation in DMF, DMSO, trimethyl phosphate, and propylene carbonate are discussed.     

Differential Pulse Polarography of Nickel(II) with Imidazole and Related Compounds

Abstract

Electrochemical reductions of nickel(II) complexes with imidazole, histamine, histidine, and pilocarpine have been studied using differential pulse polarography in the presence of 1.0 mol dm^?3 sodium acetate as supporting electrolyte. The peak potential for the complexes appeared at more positive potentials than for the nickel aquo ion. The positive shift ceases and then reverses to the negative direction for high ligand concentrations. Both histidine and pilocarpine have shown another wave which may be ascribed to the catalytic reduction of hydrogen ions in the solution. The peak height of the differential pulse pre-wave increases with the concentration of the ligands only when shift in potential is in the positive direction with the nickel ion concentration in excess of the organic ligand. The linearity of variation of the peak height with the concentration for the above mentioned compounds has been investigated. A mixture of histamine and histidine showed two separate peaks, permitting possible simultaneous determination when the compounds are in admixture.     

An unprecedented example of a cis-phosphonodithioato nickel(II) complex built by an extensive hydrogen bonding supramolecular network

The P-N bond hydrolysis of the 4-methoxyphenyl-ammonium ethylamido-phosphonodithioato ligand during its complexation to NiII leads to the first example of phosphonodithioato nickel(II) complex having a cis configuration; this complex is stabilised in the solid state by an extensive and intricate network of hydrogen bondings involving the released ethylenediamine and a water molecule.     

Rotating disk electrode study of the kinetics of formation of palladium(II) ethylenediaminechloride complexes from palladium(II) bis-ethylenediamine complexes

The kinetics of substitution of chloride ions for ethylendiamine in a bis-ethylenediamine complex of palladium(II) is studied in solutions with pH 0.3–2.0 and the ionic strength of 0.11–1.0 M by measuring the transients of limiting diffusion currents of the electroreduction of palladium(II) ethylenediamine complexes on a rotating disk electrode. The first reaction orders in hydrogen and chloride ions are found at the ionic strength of 1 M (NaClO₄). The activation energy of the homogeneous reaction under study is determined from the temperature dependence of its rate constant. The mechanism of substitution of chloride ions for ethylenediamine is discussed.     

1,2-Bis(2-pyridylethynyl)benzene, a novel trans-chelating bipyridyl ligand. structural characterization of the complexes with silver(I) triflate and palladium(II) chloride

The design, synthesis, and complexation characteristics of the bipyridyl ligand 1,2-bis-(2-pyridylethynyl)benzene are described. The X-ray crystallographic characterization of the 1:1 complexes of 1,2-bis(2-pyridylethynyl)benzene with silver(I) triflate and palladium(II) chloride are described. In the X-ray crystal structure of the silver(I) triflate complex the ligand is essentially planar with negligible distortion compatible with a good fit of the cation in the "cavity" between the pyridine N atoms. Indeed the silver center is almost linear with the N(1)-Ag(1)-N(2) angle of 177.02(10) degrees. The ligand is also essentially planar in the palladium(II) chloride complex with square planar coordination about the palladium with the N(1)-Pd(1)-N(2), Cl(2)-Pd(1)-Cl(2), and N(1)-Pd(1)-Cl(2) angles at 179.53(7), 177.17(2), and 90.52(5) degrees, respectively.     

OXIDATIVE ADDITION REACTIONS OF d8 COMPLEXES. I. CHLORINE OXIDATION OF TETRACHOLOROPALLADATE (II)

Abstract

The reaction of Na₂PdCl₄ with chlorine in aqueous acid solution proceeds in two stages: oxidation of the complex to a Pd(IV) species followed by a slower substitution reaction. The oxidation reaction is first order in complex and first order in chlorine. At high chloride concentration, a six-coordinate palladium(II) intermediate is formed, which is oxidised via an outer-sphere type mechanism. Oxidation of the chloroaquopalladium(II) species present at low chloride concentration occurs via a different mechanism, probably involving coordination of the oxidant in a ‘quasiinner-sphere’ mechanism.     

Thermodynamic, crystallographic and solvent extraction properties of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of ethylenediamine- N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetanilide

Complexes of ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetanilide (edtan, C₃₄H₃₆N₆O₁₄) with cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) in the solid state and in solution are reported for the first time. Thermodynamic data (stability constant, and derived Gibbs energy, enthalpy and entropy changes)for the 1 : 1 complexation of edtan with the metal ions at 298.15 K in water-saturated butan-1-ol gave the selectivity sequence log₁₀K_s; Ni²⁺, 4.56±0.02; Cu²⁺, 4.41±0.01; Co²⁺, 4.18±0.04 as found from microcalorimetric titration studies. The entropies suggested that the structure of the 1 : 1 complex with copper(II) contains fewer chelate rings than those for nickel(II) and cobalt(II) (δ_cS⁰ : Cu-21.4, Co 5.7, Ni 3.9 J mol⁻¹K⁻¹). Solid complexes of the metal ions with edtan and perchlorate as the counter anion were prepared. For each, a complex with a 1 : 1 metal: edtan stoichiometry with non-coordinated perchlorate was isolated. The X-ray structure of [Cu(edtan)(H₂O)][ClO₄]₂·1.5H₂O (1) revealed a six-coordinate Cu centre with edtan acting as pentadentate ligand (2N, 3O) with the coordination sphere completed by an oxygen atom from water. In striking contrast to the Cu complex, the Co centre in [Co(edtan)(H₂O)][ClO₄]₂·H₂O·0.5C₂H₅OH (2) is seven-coordinate with hexadentate edtan (2N, 4O) and one coordinated water molecule. There is thus an excellent confirmation of the results obtained from the microcalometric study in that edtan forms four chelate rings to Cu but five to Co in the solid state. The ability of the ligand to extract metal ions from water to the water-saturated butan-1-ol phase was assessed from distribution data as a function of the aqueous phase hydrogen ion concentration and of the ligand concentration in the organic phase. The data showed that Cu²⁺ is selectively extracted over a wide range of aqeous phase hydrogen ion concentrations.     

Influence of chloride ions,pH and humic substances on complexation of cadmium(II) and copper(II)

An influence of chloride ions, pH and humic substances concentration on complexation of cadmium(II)and copper(II) ions with humic acids was studied by means of inversion-voltamperometry using the method of experimental design. Equations establishing dependences of concentrations of humate complexes of cadmium(II) and copper(II) on concentrations of chloride and humic substances and pH values too were derived.     

Flow-Injection Study and Analytical Applications of the Reactions of Palladium(II) and Platinum(IV) with Tin(II) Chloride in Hydrochloric Acid Solutions

The interaction of palladium(II) and platinum(II) with tin(II) chloride in hydrochloric acid solutions was studied by flow-injection (FI) spectrophotometry. It was found using kinetic measurements in the stopped flow mode that the composition of detected products and the rate of their formation depend on the concentrations of tin(II) and chloride ions in the reaction zone and on the acidity of the solution. Optimal FI conditions were found, and the selectivity of interaction of palladium(II) with tin(II) chloride was estimated for the detection of the signal at 407 nm (yellow form) and 646 nm (green form). It was demonstrated that the reaction of the formation of yellow platinum(IV) complexes is slower than that for palladium(II), especially at rather low concentrations of hydrochloric acid in the reaction flow. Based on the detection of green complexes of palladium(II) with tin(II) chloride, a flow injection method was proposed for the selective spectrophotometric determination of palladium(II) in the presence of other platinum-group metals. The height of the recorded peak is directly proportional to the concentration of palladium(II) in the injected solution in the range of 0.028–0.300 mM. The method was used for the analysis of pharmaceuticals and industrial catalysts.     

Hydrolysis of the palladium(II) ion in a sodium chloride medium

Summary The hydrolysis of the palladium(II) ion in a sodium chloride medium was studied by the e.m.f. method at 25 °C. The data show that the extent of the palladium hydrolysis depends upon the concentration of both palladium and sodium chloride medium. Thus, at a definite pH, the extent of the hydrolysis increases with increasing concentration of palladium, but decreases with increasing concentration of sodium chloride. The stability constants of the complexes obtained, PdOH⁺ and Pd⁴(OH) ₄ ⁴⁺ , also differ slightly depending upon the concentraton of sodium chloride. The observed medium effect is in agreement with the linear free energy relationship proposed for the metal ion hydrolysis.     

Organometallic chemistry of azuliporphyrins: synthesis, spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and structural characterization of nickel(II), palladium(II), and platinum(II) complexes of azuliporphyrins

Four azuliporphyrins, two meso-unsubstituted and two meso-tetraaryl substituted, were investigated in the synthesis of novel organometallic compounds. The meso-unsubstituted or "etio" series azuliporphyrins 8 reacted with nickel(II) acetate, palladium(II) acetate, and platinum(II) chloride in DMF to give the corresponding chelates 14-16, where the metal cation lies within the macrocyclic cavity and binds to all three nitrogens and the internal carbon atom. The newly available meso-tetraarylazuliporphyrins 13 similarly afforded the corresponding nickel(II), palladium(II), and platinum(II) complexes, 17-19, respectively. The new organometallic complexes are stable nonpolar compounds and were fully characterized spectroscopically and by mass spectrometry. The UV-vis data indicate that these complexes, in common with the parent azuliporphyrin system 8, do not possess porphyrin-type aromaticity. However, electron donation from the azulene unit can give rise to dipolar resonance contributors that provide a degree of carbaporphyrin-type aromatic character. The platinum(II) azuliporphyrins 16 gave noteworthy proton NMR spectra where the meso-protons showed satellite peaks due to transannular coupling to platinum-195. The pyrrolic protons of the platinum(II) meso-tetraarylazuliporphyrin 19b also showed similar satellite peaks due to coupling from the platinum-195 isotope. The electrochemistry of free base tetraphenylazuliporphyrin 13a and the related nickel(II) and palladium(II) complexes was investigated using cyclic voltammetry, and these data indicate that metal coordination improves the reversibility of the ligand-based oxidations. Nickel(II) azuliporphyrin 14a and palladium(II) tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)azuliporphyrin 18b were also structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. The macrocyclic core of the palladium(II) complex 18b was significantly more planar than the nickel(II) derivative 14b, and this difference was attributed to the better size match between the azuliporphyrin cavity and the larger palladium(II) ion. The straightforward synthesis of metalloazuliporphyrins under mild conditions, and their interesting spectroscopic, electrochemical, and structural features, demonstrates that the azuliporphyrin system holds great promise as a platform for organometallic chemistry.     

THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF DIBROMO (PHENYL-2-PYRIDYL DIMETHYLHYDRAZONE)PALLADIUM(II)

Abstract

Nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds play an important role in several biological processes. Furthermore, their biological activity seems often to depend upon interaction with a metal ion. Interest in the study of hydrazones and their metal complexes has been growing because of their physiological activity, coordination capability and application in analytical chemistry.^1,2 Many hydrazones and their metallic derivatives show very interesting biological activity, e.g., as antitumour or anticonvulsant agents, and behave as cytotoxic compounds toward tumour cells.³ During the past few years, in addition to platinum compounds, coordination compounds of palladium(II) and (IV) seem to be promising in cancer chemotherapy.⁴ Due to the biological activity of heterocyclic hydrazones and in continuing our systematic investigations of the platinum group metals with hydrazones and generally with heterocyclic nitrogen donor ligands,^5–10 we report here the crystal structure of dibromo(phenyl-2-pyridyldimethylhydrazone) palladium(II).
