Investigation of the oxygen affinity of manganese(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) complexes with some tetradentate Schiff bases

Oxygen absorption–desorption processes for square planar Mn(II), Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes of tetradentate Schiff base ligands in DMF and chloroform solvents were investigated. The tetradentate Schiff base ligands were obtained by condensation reaction of ethylenediamine with salcyldehyde, o-hydroxyacetophenone or acetylacetone in the molar ratio 1:2. The square planar complexes were prepared by the reaction of the Schiff base ligands with Mn(II) acetate, Co(II) nitrate and Ni(II) nitrate in dry ethanol under nitrogen atmosphere. The sorption processes were undertaken in the presence and absence of (pyridine) axial-base in 1:1 M ratio of (pyridine:metal(II) complexes). Complexes in DMF indicate significant oxygen affinity than in chloroform solvent. Cobalt(II) complexes showed significant sorption processes compared to Mn(II) and Ni(II) complexes. The presence of pyridine axial base clearly increases oxygen affinity.     

Transition metal(ii) schiff's base complexes catalyzed oxidation of trans-2-(1-propenyl)-4,5-methylenedioxyphenol to carpanone by molecular oxygen

Carpanone was synthesized in an excellent yield by the oxidation of $\text{trans}$-2- (1-propenyl) -4,5-methylenedioxyphenol with molecular oxygen in the presence of transition metal complexes such as Co(II)salen, Co(II)salpr, Fe(II)salen, and Mn(II)salen.     

INTERACTIONS OF COBALT(II) TETRASULFOPHTHALOCYANINE WITH NITRITE IN THE PRESENCE OF NITRATE AND PERCHLORATE IONS

Abstract

Spectroscopic changes observed on addition of nitrite to solutions of cobalt(II) tetra-sulfophthalocyanine ([Co(II)TSPc]^4-) in the presence of N^? ₃ or ClO^? ₄ are reported. There is spectroscopic evidence for the oxidation of [Co(II)TSPc]^4- to a [Co(III)TSPc]^3- species in the presence of nitrite ions. Equilibrium and kinetic studies for the interaction between [Co(II)TSPc]^4- and NO^? ₂ are reported. The rate was found to be first order in both [Co(II)TSPc]^4- and NO^? ₂. The rate constant for the forward reaction, k _f=1.6 × 10^?4 dm³mol^?1s^?1 was determined at 20°C for the interaction between nitrite ions and [Co(II)TSPc]^4- in the presence of NO₃ ^? or ClO₄ ^? ions.     

金属卟啉存在下芳醛氧化反应的研究

本文研究了在金属四苯基卟啉[Co(II)TPP,Fe(III)TPPCl,Mn(III)TPPCl,Zn(II)TPP,Cu(II)TP.TPP=四苯基卟啉]存在下,用氧气氧化芳醛的过程.测定了反应体系的吸氧动力学曲线;观察了氧化过程中金属卟啉的可见光谱的变化;研究了底物,金属卟啉在反应体系中的浓度以及溶剂等因素对反应的影响.结果发现,除能可逆键合分子氧的Co(II)TPP外,不具此种功能的Fe(III)TPPCl和Mn(III)TPPCl也能加速芳醛的氧化反应.然而,它们的催化作用是在金属四苯基卟啉与反应过程中积累起来的过酸作用,卟啉环遭到破坏后观察到的,此时可能形成了某种新的催化活性中心.金属卟啉本身对反应起抑制作用,它只是表观上的催化剂,其催化作用看来不应归结为对分子氧的活化.     

Operando X‐Ray Absorption Spectroscopy Shows Iron Oxidation Is Concurrent with Oxygen Evolution in Cobalt–Iron (Oxy)hydroxide Electrocatalysts

Iron cations are essential for the high activity of nickel and cobalt‐based (oxy)hydroxides for the oxygen evolution reaction, but the role of iron in the catalytic mechanism remains under active investigation. Operando X‐ray absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations are used to demonstrate partial Fe oxidation and a shortening of the Fe?O bond length during oxygen evolution on Co(Fe)O_xH_y. Cobalt oxidation during oxygen evolution is only observed in the absence of iron. These results demonstrate a different mechanism for water oxidation in the presence and absence of iron and support the hypothesis that oxidized iron species are involved in water‐oxidation catalysis on Co(Fe)O_xH_y.     

PROTONATED METAL COMPLEXES OF DIETHYLENETRIAMINEPENTAACETIC ACID (DTPA)

Spectrophotometric studies in acidic solutions with pH between 1.10 and 1.80, show the presence of tetraprotonated complexes, MH₄L, of Co(II), Cu(II) and Fe(III) with DTPA. Under identical conditions, Ni(II) forms the complex NiH₂L.

The effective and overall stability constants of these complexes are determined.     

Heterogeneous Fenton degradation of azo dye 4BS over Co–Mn–Fe ternary hydrotalcites

This work described the application of Co–Mn–Fe hydrotalcites (Co–Mn–Fe LDHs) as heterogeneous catalysts for Fenton reaction process. The Co–Mn–Fe LDHs were synthesized by the co-precipitation method and were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR), zeta potential, and BET surface area measurement. The catalytic activity of different kinds of hydrotalcites was evaluated by the degradation of Direct Scarlet 4BS (4BS). The Co–Mn–Fe LDHs showed the best catalytic performance among four catalysts. The presence of the Mn²⁺/Mn³⁺ at surface of catalyst could accelerate the reduction of Co³⁺–Co²⁺, and then increased in the catalytic activity of the Co–Mn–Fe LDHs. The effect of initial pH, catalyst dosage, dye concentration, and reaction temperature on the degradation of 4BS had been investigated. Radical reaction mechanism was proposed by the addition of radical scavenger. The degradation kinetic followed pseudo-first-order model. The activation energy of Co–Mn–Fe LDHs was determined to be 37.3 kJ/mol. The catalytic activity of Co–Mn–Fe LDHs was maintained after four cycles of reaction, which proved the reusability of catalyst. Finally, the possible reaction mechanisms involved in the heterogeneous Fenton system were proposed.     

SULPHENE INTERMEDIATES IN THE SYNTHESIS OF POLY(P-BENZENE-SULPHONAMIDES) AND POLY(P-BENZENE SULPHONATES)

Abstract

Various sulfides are easily oxidized selectively to the corresponding sulfoxides in quantitative yields by iodosylarene (ArIO) catalyzed by metalloporphyrin (TPPM(III)Cl (M [dbnd] Fe, Mn)). The oxidation system is demonstrated to be a possible model for monooxygenase in the study of the stereochemistry of these sulfoxides. Metalloporphyrin-iodosylarene can initially equilibrate with the oxometalloporphyrin (TPPM(V)=O·Cl) formed in situ. The initial process may involve one-electron transfer from the sulfide to the intermediate oxometalloporphyrin followed by coupling of two resulting charged products, and/or nucleophilic attack of sulfide on oxometalloporphyrin oxygen. The overall reactions are depicted by paths with different electron demands from the results of Hammett plots.     

Thin Layer and Paper Chromatographic Separations of d-Block Cations Complexed with ANILS

Abstract

Diverse binary, ternary and quaternary mixtures of Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II) and Au(III) d-block cations complexed with p-dimethylamino- and p-diethylamino- anils of thiopheneglyoxal have been separated by thin layer and paper chromatographic techniques. But quantitative separations have been done by thin layer chromatography, on account of wide difference in migration rates and high compectedness of complexes on gel layers. Chromatogram fragments visualised as such have been estimated spectrophotometrically.     

THE INTERACTION OF 2-AMINO-2-HYDROXYMETHYL-1,3-PROPANEDIOL WITH COBALT(II) AND MANGANESE(II) IONS

Abstract

The stepwise complex formation between 2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol (TRIS) with Co(II) and Mn(II) was studied by potentiometry at constant ionic strength 2.0 M (NaClO₄) and T = (25.0 ± 0.1)°C, from pH measurements. Data of average ligand number (Bjerrum's function) were obtained from such measurements followed by integration to obtain Leden's function, F ₀(L). Graphical treatment and matrix solution of simultaneous equations have shown two overall stability constants of mononuclear stepwise complexes for the Mn(II)/TRIS system (β₁ = (5.04 ± 0.02) M^?1 and β₂ = (5.4 ± 0.5) M^?2) and three for the Co(II)/TRIS system (β₁ = (1.67 ± 0.02) × 10² M^?1, β₂ = (7.01 ± 0.05) × 10³ M^?2 and β₃ = (2.4 ± 0.4) × 10⁴ M^?3). Slow spontaneous oxidation of Co(II) solutions by dissolved oxygen, accelerated by S(IV), occurs in a buffer solution TRIS/HTRIS⁺ 0.010/0.030 M, with a synergistic effect of Mn(II).     

Determination of Fe(II) and H2O2 in Atmospheric Liquid Water by Peroxyoxalate Chemiluminescence

Abstract

The chemiluminescence reaction of oxygen with bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)oxalate (TCPO) in the presence of Fe(II) has been investigated under the analytical and mechanistic point of view. Its suitability for the determination of Fe(II) as well as H₂O₂ in atmospheric liquid water by using a new static fiberoptic luminometer (FOL) and a flow-injection analysis (FIA) system is demonstrated. Results obtained so far suggest, that chemiluminescence is generated by superoxide ion (O₂ ^?) produced by autoxidation of Fe(II) through dissolved oxygen. The analytical method based on this reaction shows high sensitivity and detection limits below 100 nM Fe(II). Its application to rain water analysis indicates that Fe(II) and H₂O₂ may be coexistent in the atmospheric liquid phase.     

THE PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF Cd(XCN)4M TYPE COMPOUNDS

Abstract

A series of compounds of the type Cd(XCN)₄M (X=S and Se; M=Mn, Fe, Co and Zn) have been prepared and characterized. These compounds crystallize in the tetragonal system: space group I4[sbnd]S₄ ². The bidentate thiocynate and selenocyanate ligands coordinate to the “hard” M(II) ions through the nitrogen atom and the “soft” Cd(II) ion through the sulfur or selenium atom. The Cd[sbnd]Se bond in Cd(XCN)₄ M is slightly stronger than the Cd[sbnd]S bond while the M[sbnd]NCSe bond is slightly weaker than the M[sbnd]NCS bond. The M(II) ions tetrahedrally coordinated by the nitrogen end of XCN^? are in the high spin state. The [sbnd]NCS and [sbnd]NCSe ligands are located at about the same place in the spectrochemical series.     

Synthesis and characterization of self-assembled coordination polymers of N-diaminomethylene-4-(3-formyl-4-hydroxy-phenylazo)-benzenesulfonamide

The azo dye ligand N-diaminomethylene-4-(3-formyl-4-hydroxy-phenylazo)-benzenesulfonamide (HL) and Cu(II), Co(II), and Mn(II) coordination polymers were synthesized in addition to a non-polymeric Pd(II) complex. In all complexes, the ligand bonds to the metal ion through the formyl and α-hydroxy oxygen atoms. The sulfonamide oxygen also coordinates to the metal. The complexes are formulated as [ML₂] _n , where M?=?Cu(II), Co(II), and Mn(II), and [ML(Cl)(H₂O)], where M?=?Pd(II). On the basis of spectral studies and magnetic susceptibility measurements, an octahedral geometry was assigned to Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes, tetragonally elongated octahedral geometry for Cu(II) complex, while the Pd(II) complex was found to be square planar. Crystallization of Cu(II) complex from DMF afforded single crystals of general formula {[Cu(L)₂]?·?3DMF} _n (2). X-ray structural analysis of 2 revealed that each Cu(II) adopts elongated octahedral geometry affording 1-D chains. The chains are connected by hydrogen bonds, resulting in the formation of 2-D supramolecular assemblies. The crystal structure of HL has also been determined and discussed. Cyclic voltammetric behavior of the ligand and some complexes are also discussed.     

A potentiometric study of the oxidation of cobalt(II) with gold(III) chloride in presence of 1,10 phenanthroline or 2,2'-bipyridine : A new titration of cobalt (II) and its application to nickel-base alloys

The redox reaction between cobalt(II) and gold(III) chloride in the presence of 1.10-phenanthroline or 2,2'-bipyridine was studied, and a titration of the cobalt(II) complex with a gold(III) chloride solution was developed. A 4-fold amount of 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2'-bipyridine was necessary for rapid quantitative reaction; the permissible pH range was 1.5–5. The oxidation of the cobalt(II) complex proceeds rapidly at 40–50°C, and a direct potentiometric titration was possible. The following maximum errors were obtained: 3.3% for 0.2–1.0 mg Co, 2.0% for 1–5 mg Co, and 0.70% for 10–40 mg Co. The following ions did not interfere: Ni(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Mn(II), Fe(II), Cr(III), Al(III), Th(IV), Se(IV), Ti(IV), U(VI), Mo(VI), SO^2-₄ and PO^3-₄. Even small quantities of silver(I), copper(II), palladium(II), mercury(II)and iron(III) interfered. The method was applied to the determination of high cobalt contents in high-temperature nickel-base alloys.     

Syntheses,spectroscopic, and magnetic properties of polystyrene-anchored coordination compounds of tridentate ONO donor Schiff base

The crosslinked chloromethylated polystyrene (PSCH₂–Cl) reacts with the Schiff base, derived from condensation of PSCH₂–Cl with 3-formylsalicylic acid and salicylhydrazide to form a polystyrene-anchored Schiff base, PSCH₂–LH₃ (1). Compound 1 reacts with a number of metal ions to form polystyrene-anchored coordination compounds, PSCH₂–LHM?·?DMF (where M?=?Cu, Zn, Cd, UO₂, and MoO₂), PSCH₂–LHM′?·?3DMF (where M′?=?Mn, Co, and Ni), PSCH₂–LHFeCl?·?2DMF, and PSCH₂–LHZr(OH)₂?·?2DMF. The polystyrene-anchored coordination compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, spectra (infrared, reflectance, and electron spin resonance) and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The polystyrene-anchored compounds are magnetically dilute. Shifts in band positions of the groups involved in coordination have been utilized to find tridentate ONO donor behavior of 1. The polystyrene-anchored Zn(II), Cd(II), Zr(IV), MoO₂(VI), and UO₂(VI) compounds are diamagnetic, while Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Fe(III) compounds are paramagnetic. The polystyrene-anchored Cu(II) compound is square planar; Zn(II) and Cd(II) compounds are tetrahedral; Co(II), Ni(II), Mn(II), Fe(III), MoO₂(VI), and UO₂(VI) compounds are octahedral; and Zr(IV) compound is pentagonal bipyramidal.     

Thermal and electrical studies of some polychelates

Polychelates of Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with 4,4′-dihydroxy-3,3′-diacetylbiphenyl-dithioxamide (DDBDO) have been prepared. Their structures were determined by visible reflectance spectroscopy and magnetic measurements in conjunction with thermogravimetric and IR measurements. Elemental analysis indicates a 1∶1 metal-ligand stoichiometry and the association of water molecules with the central metal. The decomposition temperature of the chelates is in the order Ni(II)>Fe(II)>Co(II)>Mn(II)>Cu(II). Thermal activation energies (E _a ), calculated with the help of Freeman-Carroll and Sharp-Wentworth methods, are in agreement with each other. The polychelates were found to be semiconductive, and the activation energy obtained from semiconducting behavior follows the order Co(II)>Ni(II)>Fe(II)>Cu(II)>Mn(II). The probable structure, such as six coordinated octahedral for Mn(II) and Fe(II) polychelates and four coordinated square planar for Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) polychelates, have been suggested.     

Maleates of Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) as precursors for synthesis of metal-polymer composites

Comparison was made for the structural, IR spectral, and thermoanalytical characteristics of normal [M₁(H₂O)₂(C₄H₂O₄)](H₂O) (M₁ = Co(II) and Ni(II)) and acid maleates [M₂(H₂O)₄(C₄H₃O₄)₂] (M₂ = Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II) and Ni(II)). Only structures of acid maleates contain intramolecular asymmetric hydrogen bond whose asymmetry increases in the series of transition metal salts. Thermal decomposition of Co(II), Ni(II) normal maleates, and Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II) acid maleates proceeds in three stages. Onset decomposition temperatures for the first and second stages decreases in the series of normal maleates Co(II) ≥ Ni(II) and increases in the series of acid maleates Fe(II) < Co(II) < Ni(II) ≈ Mn(II). Onset temperature of the third stage decreases in the series of both normal maleates Co(II) > Ni(II) and acid maleates Mn(II) > Fe(II) > Co(II) > Ni(II).     

Spectrometric Studies on the Complexation of Pd(II), Fe(III) and Pt(IV) with mandelazo I

Abstract

A spectrometric study of the reaction between Pd(II), Fe(III) and Pt(IV) ions, and Mandelazo I was carried out. The optimum conditions favouring the formation of the complexes are extensively investigated. The stoichiometry of the complexes formed in solution (1:2, 1:1, 1:1), their apparent stability constants (5.45 × 10⁹, 2.39 × 10⁶, 4.12 × 10⁵) and the ranges for obedience to beer's law (0.2 – 6.4, 0.25 – 7.0, 1.5 – 42.0 μg/mL) are reported for Pd(II), Fe(III) and Pt(IV), respectively. The effect of some metal ions including Cu(II), Zn(II), Mn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Be(II), Al(III), Th(IV) and U(VI), on the maximum absorbance of the formed complexes was also investigated.     

Solid phase extraction and determination of metal ions in aqueous samples using Quercetin modified Amberlite XAD-16 chelating polymer as metal extractant

A new chelating polymer has been developed using Amberlite XAD-16 anchored with Quercetin. The modified polymer was characterised by Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, surface area analysis and elemental analysis. The Quercetin anchored polymer showed superior binding affinity for Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) with greater than 95% adsorption under optimum conditions. The optimum pH conditions for the quantitative sorption of metal ions were studied. The developed method showed superior extraction qualities with high metal loading capacities of 387, 313, 195, 473, 210 and 320 µmol g^?1 for Cu(II), Co(II), Cr(III), Fe(III), Mn(II) and Ni(II), respectively. The rate of metal ion uptake i.e. kinetics studies performed under optimum levels, showed t _1/2 for Co(II), Cu(II), Cr(III), Fe(III), Mn(II) and Ni(II) is 20, 15, 25, 10, 30 and 15 min, respectively. Desorption of metal ions was effective with 10 mL of 2 M HCl prior to analysis using flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The chelating polymer was highly ion selective in nature even in the presence of interferent ions, with a high preconcentrating ability for the metal ions of interest. The developed chelating polymer was tested on its utility with synthetic and real samples like river, tap water samples and also with multivitamin tablets. It showed relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) values of/less than 3.0% reflecting on the accuracy and reproducibility of data using the newly developed chelating polymer.     

Radiometric studies on the reaction of some metals with potassium pentacyanonitrosyl manganate

The nature and composition of complexes formed by the reaction of Fe(III), Cr(III), Zn(II), and Co(II) with potassium pentacyanonitrosyl manganate K₃ [Mn(CN)₅NO] has been investigated by radiometric method. The metals form 1∶1 complexes with K₃ [Mn(CN)₅NO], the optimum pH for maximum precipitation being 3.6 for Fe(III), 7.3 for Cr(III), 5.4 for Zn(II), and 8.3 for Co(II). The solubility of the complexes as computed from activity at maximum precipitation point follows the order: chromium complex > iron complex > cobalt complex > zinc complex. The radiometric titration curves also show the formation of colloidal precipitates with dilute Zn(II) solutions.
