A kinetic study of the oxidation of 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridine by chromium(VI) in strongly acidic aqueous solutions of HClO4

Oxidation of 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridine (pyeol) to 2-pyridylacetaldehyde (pyeal) by Cr^VI has been studied in the 0.5–2.0M HClO₄ range at I=2.2M and in super acidic media within the 3–7M HClO₄ range. In all cases the reaction has been examined under pseudo-first order conditions keeping the alcohol and H⁺ _aq in excess. Cr^III-complexes formed during reduction of Cr^VI by pyeol at different molar ratios of the reactants, were isolated chromatographically and identified as [Cr(H₂O)₆]³⁺ and [Cr(pyeac)(H₂O)₄]²⁺ ions (pyeac=2-pyridylacetic acid). Free 2-pyridylacetaldehyde (pyeal) was separated and determined as its 2,4-dinitro-phenylhydrazone derivative. A dependence of the rate constants on [pyeol] and [H⁺] has been established at I=1.2M and I=2.2M. The apparent activation parameters at [H⁺]=1 and 2M have been determined. A rate law of the form d[Cr^VI]/dt= (k ₁[H ⁺]+k ₂[H ⁺]²)[pyeol][Cr^VI] is proposed. A linear dependence of log k _obs on H₀ in the super acidic media is obeyed. A rate decrease is observed if oxygen instead of argon is in the reaction cell. The reaction mechanism has been discussed.     

Synthesis and magnetic properties of trinuclear chromium(III)palladium(II)-chromium(III) complexes bridged by extended dioximato groups

Summary Heterotrinuclear Cr^III-Pd^II-Cr^III complexes of formulae [Cr(salen)-Pd(dmg)₂-Cr(salen)]·H₂O (1), [Cr(salen)-Pd(-BD) ₂-Cr(salen)]·H₂O (2) and [Cr(salen)-Pd(-FD) ₂-Cr(salen)]·2H₂O (3) [dmg^2- =dimethyl-glyoximato, (-BD)^2/2- = -benzyldioximato, (-FD)^2/2- = -furildioximato and salen^2– = N,N-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminate)] have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, i.r. and electronic spectroscopies, and molar conductances. These complexes are thought to contain extended diomixato bridges. The magnetic properties of complex (1) has been investigated over the 80–300 K range and corresponds to what is expected for an antiferromagnetic Cr^III-Cr^IIIi pair with S _Cr = 3/2 and S _Pd = 0 (Pd²⁺ is a diamagnetic in a square-planar environment) local spins. The exchange integral (J) was evaluated as -3.38cm^–1 using the spin Hamiltonians = -2J _{A B}(S _A = S _B = 3/2).     

Heterogeneous reactions of solid nickel(II) complexes

The influence of different modes of preparation on the stoichiometry of thermal decomposition of isothiocyanatonickel(II) complexes with ammonia was studied. It was found that the complex Ni(NCS)₂(NH₃)₄ (I) prepared by heterogeneous reaction undergoes decomposition in two steps (–2 NH₃, –2 NH₃), while for complex II, of the same composition but prepared by homogeneous reaction from solution, the decomposition proceeds in three steps (–1 NH₃, –1 NH₃, –2NH₃). Electronic and infrared absorption spectra were used for the study of the spectral properties of the starting complex. It was found that the different stoichiometries of thermal decompositions of complexes I and II do not cause differences in the bonding strength of the ammonia molecules (chemical factor); this effect is rather brought about by physical factors such as different imperfections of the crystal lattice.

Zusammenfassung Der Einfluß der Herstellung auf die Stöchiometrie der thermischen Zersetzung von Amin-Komplexen des Isothiocyanatonickels wurde studiert. Der Zerfall des Komplexes Ni(NCS)₂(NH₃)₄ (I), hergestellt durch heterogene Reaktion, verlief in zwei Etappen (–2 NH₃, –2 NH₃). Beim selben Komplex (II), hergestellt durch homogene Reaktion in Lösung, wurden jedoch drei Etappen beobachtet (–1 NH₃, –1 NH₃, –2 NH₃). Die Eigenschaften des Ausgangsproduktes wurden durch Elektronen- und IR-Spektroskopie untersucht. Das unterschiedliche thermische Verhalten ist nicht auf eine verschiedene Bindungsstärke der NH₃ Moleküle, sondern auf physikalische Ursachen, wie z. B. Unregelmässigkeiten im Kristallgitter zurückzuführen.

Résumé On a étudié l'influence des diverses méthodes de préparation sur la stoechiométrie de la réaction de décomposition thermique des complexes de l'isothiocyanate de nickel(II) avec l'ammoniac. On a établi que le complexe Ni(SCN)₂(NH₃)₄, (I), préparé rar réaction hétérogène, subit une décomposition en deux étapes (–2NH₃, –2NH₃), tandis que le complexe (II), de même composition, mais préparé par réaction homogène, à partir de solutions, se décompose en trois étapes (–1NH₃,–1NH₃, –2NH₃). Les propriétés spectrales du complexe initial ont été étudiées par absorption électronique et infrarouge. On a trouvé que les différences de stoechiométrie des réactions de décomposition thermique des complexes (I) et (II) n'apportaient pas de différences entre les énergies de liaison des molécules d'ammoniac (facteur chimique). C'est plutôt à des facteurs physiques, comme les différentes imperfections du réseau cristallin, que cet effet serait dû.

Extraction-spectrophotometric determination of iron with 2-(2′-benzothiazolylazo)-4,6-dimethylphenol

An extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of iron based on its extraction into chloroform with 2-(2-benzothiazolylazo)-4,6-dimethylphenol (BTADMP) from a pH 6.5 medium has been developed. The extracted 12 FeBTADMP complex species allow the determination of 4–30gmg of iron (=3.92×10⁴1·mol^–1·cm^–1 at 790 nm). The method is highly selective and has been applied to the determination of iron in polymineral-polyvitamin pharmaceutical products.     

Thermal properties of thio-and selenocyanatocopper(II) complexes with bipyridine and phenanthroline

The paper deals with the thermal properties of complex compounds of the general formula CuL₂(NCX)₂ (whereL=bipy or phen,X=S or Se). The phenanthroline complexes exhibit a higher thermal stability than those with bipyridine. For the latter complexes thermal decomposition begins with the release of bipyridine molecules, while for the phenanthroline complexes redox reactions of pseudohalogenide ligands with Cu(II) take place. The redox reactions start at a lower temperature for the selenocyanate complexes than for the thiocyanate complexes.

Die thermiscne Zersetzung letzterer beginnt mit der Abgabe von Bipyridinmolekülen, während bei den Phenanthrolinkomplexen Redoxreaktionen von Pseudohalogenidliganden·mit Cu(II) stattfinden. Diese Redoxreaktionen beginnen bei den Selenozyanatkomplexen bei niedrigeren Temperaturen als bei den Thiozyanatkomplexen.

Gamma radiolysis of Methyl Red solution and reaction induced by γ-irradiated NaCl in Methyl Red

The -radiolysis of Methyl Red solution in HCl medium at pH=2 has been studied along with energy transfer reaction brought about byF and hole centers of -irradiated NaCl. The G-values for degradation of the azo dye indicator by radiolysis and -irradiated salt were determined as 9·10^–1 and 4.8·10^–3, respectively. The kinetic rate constants (k) of degradation are evaluated as 2·10^–5 rad^–1 in the case of direct radiolysis, while for the irradiated salt it is 2·10^–7 rad^–1. The extent of degradation by direct -radiolysis is 100–200 times greater as compared to that by the -irradiated salt. The same mechanism is proposed for radiolysis as well as the reaction induced by -irradiated sodium chloride.     

Thermogravimetry of copper and copper oxides (Cu2O-CuO)

The thermogravimetry of mixtures of metallic copper and copper oxides was studied. The experiments were performed by heating the samples in air to 700–800° to transform all the components to copper(II) oxide, and continuing the heating in nitrogen to 1050–1100° when the dissociation of copper(II) oxide to copper(I) oxide is complete. The identification of the components and their quantitative determination were carried out by determining the shape, size, and ratio of the segments of the curves obtained during the heating. The method can be used for quantitative analysis of mixtures of copper and/or copper oxides.

Kinetics of substitution of aqua ligands fromcis-diaqua-bis(ethylene-diamine) cobalt(III) ion by quinolinic acid in water-ethanol mixtures

Summary The kinetics of aqua ligand substitution fromcis-[Coen₂(H₂O)₂]³⁺ by quinolinic acid have been studied spectrophotometrically in the 40 to 55°C range. At pH 4.05 the quinolinic acid H₂Quin behaves as uninegative and bidentate (O, O) donor. The replacement of water was found to involve two consecutive step processes. The first is the replacement of one water fromcis-[Coen₂(H₂O)₂]³⁺ by unidentate HQuin^–, involving prior establishment of an ion-pairing associative equilibrium, followed by dissociative interchange. The second step is the slower chelation step, where another water molecule is replaced. The rate constants for both the steps and the ion-pair equilibrium constant for the first step have been evaluated. The activation parameters for the two steps are: H ₁ =117.2 kJ mol^–1, H ₂ =100.5 kJ mol^–1 and S ₁ =69.4 JK^–1 mol^–1, S ₂ =12.1 JK^–1 mol^–1. A probable mechanism for the substitution process is suggested.

Solute-solvent effects in the acidic dissociation of the ampholyte N-tris(hydroxymethyl)methylglycine (“tricine”) in 50 mass % methanol-water solvent

The pK values for the two acidic dissociation steps of the ampholyte N-tris-(hydroxymethyl)methylglycine (tricine) in 50 mass % methanol-water solvent have been determined by emf measurements of cells of the type Pt|H₂(g, 1 atm), tricine buffer, Br^–, AgBr|Ag over the range 5 to 50°C (pK ₁)and 5 to 60°C (pK ₂).The standard thermodynamic quantities H^o, S^o, and C _p ^o for the two dissociation processes have been derived and are compared with the corresponding values for tricine and the parent glycine in water and with those for other acids in 50 mass % methanol-water solvent. Both tricine and protonated tricine become weaker acids when methanol is added to the aqueous solvent. It appears that a strong stabilization of the zwitterion in water is responsible for this behavior. This conclusion is supported by comparing the changes in entropy and heat capacity for the dissociation of tricine with the values of these quantities for the dissociation of model acids of simple structure, such as ammonium ion and acetic acid.On leave 1971–1973 from Drury College, Springfield, Missouri

Novel dioximato-bridged chromium(III)-copper(II)-chromium(III) trinuclear complexes with ferromagnetic exchange interactions

Summary Two new dioximato-bridged trinuclear Cr^II-Cu^II-Cr^III complexes, [Cr(salen)-Cu(-BD)₂-Cr(salen)] (1) and [Cr(salen)-Cu(-FD)₂-Cr(salen)]-H₂O (2), have been prepared and characterized [salen^2– = N,N-ethylene- bis (salicylideneiminate), (-BD)^2– = -benzyldioximato and (-FD)^2– = -furildioximato]. Magnetic susceptibility measurements in the 4.2–300 K range demonstrated the operation of a ferromagnetic interaction between the adjacent Cr^III and Cu^II ions through oximato bridges in both (1) and (2). Based on spin Hamiltonians =–2J(₁₂+₂₃)(S₁=S₃=3/2,S₂=1/2) the exchange integrals (J) were evaluated as 3.19 and 5.38 cm^–1 for (1) and (2), respectively.     

On the relationship between the structures of Cu(II) complexes and their chemical transformations

The paper deals with the relationship between the crystal and molecular structures of CuSO₄.5 H₂O, CuSO₄.3 H₂O and CuSO₄.H₂O on the one hand, and the stoichiometries of their thermal decompositions on the other. With the use of methods of X ray powder diffractograms, i.r. and electronic spectra, evidence is provided that the intermediates of the thermal decomposition of CuSO₄.5 H₂O have the same crystal and molecular structures as CuSO₄.3 H₂O and CuSO₄.H₂O prepared by other procedures. It is also shown that at temperatures near that of the thermal decomposition, certain, not further identified structural changes take place in CuSO₄.5 H₂O.

Solid-phase ligand substitution reactions by borohydride anions in chromium(III) and cobalt(III) amine complexes

The kinetic and thermodynamic characteristics of solid-phase ligand substitution reactions were determined for chromium(III) and cobalt(III) amine complexes with B₁₀H ₁₀ ^2– and C₂B₉H ₁₂ ^– in the outer sphere. The kinetic equation of the topochemical process was found to be of the formf()=(1–)^2/3, corresponding to a reaction proceeeding on the interface between the phases (shrinking sphere). Two types of solid-phase ligand substitution reactions were found: endothermic and exothermic reactions taking place either through thermal activation of the metal-ligand bond (in substitution reactions by the anion B₁₀H ₁₀ ^2– ), or through the acid-base proton-exchange reaction between the anion C₂B₉H ₁₂ ^– entering the coordination sphere and the amine leaving it; in this case the process proceeds without mass loss. It could be demonstrated that the reactions occurring in crystalline complex salts cannot proceed by purely dissociative or associative mechanisms; depending on the structure of the crystal lattice, mutually adapted dissociative or associative mechanisms are feasible. Reactions proceeding by the first mechanism haveE _a=300–500 kJ/mol and logA=30–50; the values for reactions proceeding by the second mechanism areE _a= =180–250 kJ/mol and logA=15–25.

Zusammenfassung Die kinetischen und thermodynamischen Kennwerte der Ligandensubstitutionsreaktionen in fester Phase bei Chrom(III)- und Kobalt(III)-Aminkomplexen mit B₁₀H ₁₀ ^2– und C₂B₉H_12/– als Anionen in der externen Sphäre wurden untersucht. Die kinetische Gleichung des topochemischen Prozesses hat die Formf()=(1–)^2/3, was einer an der Grenzfläche zwischen zwei Phasen verlaufenden Reaktion entspricht. Zwei Typen von Ligandsubstitutionsreaktionen in fester Phase wurden gefunden: endotherme und exotherme Reaktionen verlaufen entweder infolge thermischer Aktivierung der Metall-Ligand-Bindung (in Substitutionsreaktionen des Anions B₁₀H ₁₀ ^2– ) oder durch Protonenaustausch zwischen dem in die Koordinationssphäre eintretende Anion C₂B₉H ₁₂ ^– und dem daraus austretenden Amin; in diesem Falle verläuft der Prozeß ohne Massenverlust. Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß die in kristallinen Komplexsalzen vor sich gehenden Reaktionen nicht nach einem rein dissoziativen oder assoziativen Mechanismus verlaufen können; abhängig von der Struktur des Kristallgitters ist ein wechselseitig angepasster dissoziativer oder assoziativer Mechanismus wahrscheinlich. Die nach dem ersten Mechanismus verlaufenden Reaktionen weisen fürE _a Werte von 300 500 kJ/mol und für logA von 30–50 auf, während bei nach dem zweiten Mechanismus verlaufenden Reaktionen die entsprechenden Werte zwischen 180 und 250 kJ/mol bzw. 15 und 25 liegen.
