The stability constants of the bismuth(III), indium(III), lead(II), and cadmium,(II) monocomplexes with selenourea (seu) and thiourea (tu) were determined spectrophotometrically at the ionic strength 1 (0.5 mol/L HClO₄ + NaClO₄) or 2 (1 mol/L HClO₄ + NaClO₄) and 276 and 298 K. For all metals, the stability constants (β₁) of the complexes with seu were higher than those of the complexes with tu and changed in the series Bi³⁺ > Cd²⁺ ≈ In³⁺ > Pb²⁺. A correlation between logβ₁(S) and logβ₁(Se) was established.     

Specific Uphill Transport of Zinc as Zn(SCN)42− Ion using Na+-Dicyclohexyl-18-Crown-6 as Carrier

Sodium-dicyclohexyl- 18-crown-6 complex cation was used as carrier for the uphill transport of zinc as Zn(SCN)₄^2? complex anion. By using L-cysteine as a metal ion acceptor in the receiving phase at the optimized pH of 7.6, the amount of zinc transport through the liquid membrane after 90 min was 97.2 ± 1.0%. The selectivity and efficiency of zinc transport from aqueous solutions containing equimolar mixtures of Ag⁺, Cd²⁺ Co²⁺, Cu²⁺, Fe²⁺, Ni²⁺, Pb²⁺, Pd²⁺, Sr²⁺, Bi³⁺, Cr³⁺ and Fe³⁺ ions was investigated. In the presence of NH₂OH.HCl as a suitable masking agent in the source phase, the interfering effect of Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions was diminished drastically.     

Interaction of Aluminium (III) with the f-Family Ions Np(VI), Pu(VI), Np(V), Np(IV), Pu(IV), Nd(III), and Am(III) in the Course of Simultaneous Hydrolysis

The interaction of Np(VI), Pu(VI), Np(V), Np(IV), Pu(IV), Nd(III), and Am(III) with Al(III) in solutions at pH 0–4 was studied by the spectrophotometric method. It was shown that, in the range of pH 3–4, the hydrolyzed forms of neptunyl and plutonyl react with the hydrolyzed forms of aluminium. In the case of Pu(VI), the mixed hydroxoaqua complexes (H₂O)₃PuO₂(-OH)₂Al(OH)(H₂O)₃ ²⁺ or (H₂O)₄PuO₂OAl(OH)(H₂O)₄ ²⁺ are formed at the first stage of hydrolysis. Np(VI) also forms similar hydroxoaqua complexes with Al(III). The formation of the mixed hydroxoaqua complexes was also observed when Np(IV) or Pu(IV) was simultaneously hydrolyzed with Al(III) at pH 1.5–2.5. The Np(IV) complex with Al(III) has, most likely, the formula (H₂O) _n (OH)Np(-OH)₂Al(OH)(H₂O)₃ ³⁺. At pH from 2 to 4.1 (when aluminium hydroxide precipitates), the Np(V) or Nd(III) ions exist in solutions with or without Al(III) in similar forms. When pH is increased to 5–5.5, these ions are almost not captured by the aluminium hydroxide precipitate.     

Selective removal of Cd(II), As(III), Pb(II) and Cr(III) ions from water resources using novel 2-anthracene ammonium-based magnetic ionic liquids

Facile synthesis of two 2-anthracene ammonium-based magnetic ionic liquids (MILs), 2-anthracene ammonium tetrachloroferrate (III) ([2A-A]FeCl₄) and 2-anthracene ammonium trichlorocobaltate (II) ([2A-A]CoCl₃) was performed by protonation of 2-aminoanthracene, followed complexation with FeCl₃/CoCl₂. The MILs were tested in the adsorptive removal of Cd²⁺, As³⁺, Pb²⁺ and Cr³⁺ from water sources. Upon treatment with 10 mg dosage of MILs in 10 mL aqueous solution of 50 ppm each of Cd²⁺, As³⁺, Pb²⁺ and Cr³⁺, adsorption capacity (mg/g) in the range of 5.73–55.5 and 23.6–56.8 for [2A-A]FeCl₄ and [2A-A]CoCl₃ respectively were recorded. Thus, the optimization, kinetic and isotherms studies were conducted using the [2A-A]CoCl₃ adsorbent. The [2A-A]CoCl₃ was more effective in pH 7–9, and equilibrium adsorption was achieved after 60 min contact time. The adsorption process proceeded via the Pseudo-second order pathway and the Langmuir isotherm model is the best fit for the adsorption process (with q_max = 227 – 357 mg/g) of all the targeted metal ions. The [2A-A]CoCl₃ adsorbent demonstrated practicality with large distribution and selectivity coefficients of the targeted ions, and up to six times regeneration.     

Biosorption of copper (II) and lead (II) from aqueous solutions by nonliving green algae Cladophora fascicularis: Equilibrium, kinetics and environmental effects

Biosorption of Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺ by Cladop- hora fascicularis was investigated as a function of initial pH, initial heavy metal concentrations, temperature and other co-existing ions. Adsorption equilibriums were well described by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The maximum adsorption capacities were 1.61 mmol/g for Cu²⁺ and 0.96 mmol/g for Pb²⁺ at 298 K and pH 5.0. The adsorption processes were endothermic and biosorption heats calculated by the Langmuir constant b were 39.0 and 29.6 kJ/mol for Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺, respectively. The biosorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second order model. No significant effect on the uptake of Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺ by co-existing cations and anions was observed, except EDTA. Desorption experiments indicated that Na₂EDTA was an efficient desorbent for the recovery of Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺ from biomass. The results showed that Cladophora fascicularis was an effective and economical biosorbent material for the removal and recovery of heavy metal ions from wastewater.     

Synthesis and Properties of Complexes of Lead(II), Cadmium(II), and Zinc(II) with N-Phosphonomethylglycine

Summary.  Sparingly water soluble complexes of lead(II), cadmium(II), and zinc(II) with N-phosphonomethylglycine (glyphosate, NPMG) of the general formulae C₃H₆O₅NPPb, C₃H₆O₅NPCdċ2H₂O, and C₃H₆O₅NPZn were synthesized. The complexes were also precipited from a dilute Roundup solution, and their solubility in water was determined. Thermal, diffractometric, and IR spectrophotometric analyses were carried out. It was found that the metal is bonded to glyphosate through the oxygen atoms of the carboxylic and phosphonate groups; metal-nitrogen binding is absent in the above compounds. Studying the complexing behaviour in solution by UV spectrophotometry pointed out that a complex of the composition Pb(II) : NPMG=1:1 with an absorption band at 232 nm is formed. Its stability constant as determined by Job’s method is logK=5.9±0.1. Using potentiometric techniques, the dissociation constant of N-phosphonomethylglycine and the stability constants of its complexes with cadmium (II) and zinc (II) were determined.

KINETICS OF FORMATION AND STABILITY CONSTANTS OF MONO AND BIS l-TYROSINE COMPLEXES OF Cu(II), Co(II), AND Ni(II)

Abstract

The kinetics and stability constants of l-tyrosine complexation with copper(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) have been studied in aqueous solution at 25° and ionic strength 0.1 M. The reactions are of the type M(HL)^(3-n)+ _n-1 + HL- ? M(HL)^(2-n)+_n(k_n, forward rate constant; k_-n, reverse rate constant); where M=Cu, Co or Ni, HL^? refers to the anionic form of the ligand in which the hydroxyl group is protonated, and n=1 or 2. The stability constants (K_n=k_n/k_-n) of the mono and bis complexes of Cu²⁺, Co²⁺ and Ni²⁺ with l-tyrosine, determined by potentiometric pH titration are: Cu²⁺, log K₁=7.90 ± 0.02, log K₂=7.27 ± 0.03; Co²⁺, log K₁=4.05 ± 0.02, log K₂=3.78 ± 0.04; Ni²⁺, log K₁=5.14 ± 0.02, log K₂=4.41 ± 0.01. Kinetic measurements were made using the temperature-jump relaxation technique. The rate constants are: Cu²⁺, k₁=(1.1 ± 0.1) × 10⁹ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-1=(14 ± 3) sec^?1, k₂=(3.1 ± 0.6) × 10⁸ M ^?1 sec^?1, k^?2=(16 ± 4) sec^?1; Co²⁺, k₁=(1.3 ± 0.2) × 10⁶ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-1=(1.1 ± 0.2) × 10² sec^?1, k₂=(1.5 ± 0.2) × 10⁶ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-2=(2.5 ± 0.6) × 10² sec^?1; Ni²⁺, k₁=(1.4 ± 0.2) × 10⁴ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-1=(0.10 ± 0.02) sec^?1, k₂=(2.4 ± 0.3) × 10⁴ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-2=(0.94 ± 0.17) sec^?1. It is concluded that l-tyrosine substitution reactions are normal. The presence of the phenyl hydroxyl group in l-tyrosine has no primary detectable influence on the forward rate constant, while its influence on the reverse rate constant is partially attributed to substituent effects on the basicity of the amine terminus.     

A spectrophotometric study of the color reaction of zinc with 2,2′-dipyridyl-2-pyridylhydrazone (DPPH)

A spectrophotometric study of the zinc complex with 2,2′-clipyridyl-2-pyridylhydrazone (DPPH) is presented. The optimal formation conditions, the composition, and the overall apparent instability constant of the yellow, water-soluble zinc — DPPH complex are studied. A simple, rapid, and very sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of zinc with DPPH is proposed. At pH 10.9 to 12.4 the molecular extinction coefficient of the complex is 5.25 × 10⁴M⁻¹ · cm⁻¹ at 442 nm. DPPH can be also used as a methallochromic indicator for the complexometric titration of zinc.

Synthesis,structure, and solvent-extraction properties of tridentate oxime ligands and their cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) complexes

Synthesis of four different types of ligands Ar[COC(NOH)R] _n (Ar = biphenyl, n = 1, HL¹; Ar = biphenyl, n = 2, H₂L²; Ar = diphenylmethane, n = 1, HL³; Ar = diphenylmethane, n = 2, H₂L⁴; R = furfurylamine in all ligands) and their dinuclear Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Zn²⁺ complexes is reported herein. These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, ICP-OES, FT-IR spectra, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The ligands were further characterized by ¹H NMR. The results suggest that dinuclear complexes of HL¹ and HL³ have a metal to ligand mole ratio of 2: 2 and dinuclear complexes H₂L² and H₂L⁴ have a metal to ligand mole ratio of 2: 1. Square pyramidal or octahedral structures are proposed for complexes of oxime ligands. Furthermore, extraction abilities of the four ligands were also evaluated in chloroform using selected transition metal picrates such as Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, Pb²⁺. The ligands show strong binding ability towards Hg²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions.     

Cu(II), Zn(II), AND Pb(II) STABILITY CONSTANTS OF CYCLAM AMPHIPHILES

Abstract

1-Hexadecyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (hexadecyl cyclam) and 1-(3,7,11,15-tetramethyl) hexadecyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (tetramethylhexadecyl cyclam) have been synthesized and their deprotonation and ligand-metal formation constants, K, determined for Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II). The coupling of a long hydrocarbon chain to a ring nitrogen decreased the general ability of the cyclam ring to complex with metal ions. The greatest effect appeared to be for Cu(II) decreasing from a pK of 27 for cyclam to about 17. The titrations were fitted by HYPERQUAD and the concentrations of the intermediate complexes obtained as a function of pH. Metal-ligand complexes LMH₂ ⁴⁺, LMH₂₊ and LM₂₊ can coexist through a wide pH range. We have also calculated a composite metal-binding constant, K′, to reflect more accurately the overall ability of these ligands to bind a metal at any particular pH. K′, which is 14.6 for (hexadecyl cyclam)-Cu(II), is constructed from the concentrations of all the metal-chelated species at pH = 7. Generally, K′ is much lower than K.     

Kinetics and equilibrium study of nickel(II) complexation by pterin

The kinetics of complexation of Ni(II) by pterin was studied in aqueous solutions with a stopped‐flow apparatus under conditions of pseudo‐first order in the temperature range 5–45°C, pH between 4.0 and 6.5, and ionic strength 0.4 M. The equilibrium constants, stoichiometry, and pK_a of the ligand and complex were also determined using a spectrophotometric technique. The results are consistent with the formation of a 1:1 complex between the metal ion and pterin. The first‐order experimental rate constant k_app is pH independent and shows the following dependence with the ion metal concentration at 25°C: k_app/s⁻¹ = 3.8 × 10⁻³ + 1.6 × 10⁻⁴ × [Ni(II)]⁻¹. A global activation energy of 57 ± 2 kJ/mol associated with the formation of a 1:1 chelate was measured. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 32: 231–237, 2000     

Sorption Removal of Pb（Ⅱ） from Solution by Uncalcined and Calcined MgAl-Layered Double Hydroxides

Layered double hydroxide （LDH） with a Mg/Al molar ratio of 1 ： 1 was synthesized by using a co-precipitation method and its calcined product （CLDH） was obtained by calcination of the MgAl-LDH at 500 ℃. The sorption removal of Pb^2＋ from solution was investigated, finding that both LDH and CLDH show good sorption ability and they could be used as a new type of environmental sorbent for the removal of Pb^2＋ from water. The sorption kinetics and the sorption isotherms of Pb^2＋ on both LDH and CLDH can be described by the pseudo-second order kinetics and Freundlich isotherm, respectively, under the studied conditions. The sorption amounts of Pb^2＋ on LDH and CLDH are independent of pH in a pH range of about 3-10. The presence of NaNO3 may inhibit the sorption of Pb^2＋ on LDH while hardly affect that on CLDH. The sorption mechanism of Pb^2＋ on LDH and CLDH may be attributed to the surface precipitation and the surface complex adsorption. The surface complex adsorption may be further distinguished to the chemical binding adsorption forming the inner-sphere surface complexes and the electrostatic binding adsorption forming the outer-sphere surface complexes. The sorption mechanism of Pb^2＋ on LDH may be attributed to the surface precipitation and the electrostatic binding adsorption, while that on CLDH may be attributed to the surface precipitation and the chemical binding adsorption.     

Bismut(II)-chalkogenometallate(III) Bi2M4X8, Verbindungen mit Bi24+-Hanteln (M = Al,Ga; X = S,Se)

Bismuth(II) Chalcogenometallates(III) Bi₂M₄X₈, Compounds with Bi₂⁴⁺ Dumbbells (M = Al, Ga and X = S, Se) The ternary bismuth(II) chalcogenometallates(III) Bi₂M₄X₈ (with M = Al, Ga and X = S, Se) were synthesized from the binary chalcogenides M₂X₃ and Bi₂X₃ and elementary bismuth. All compounds are diamagnetic semiconductors with E_g (opt.) = 1.8–2.7 eV. The phases (except Bi₂Al₄Se₈) are thermodynamically stable and decompose peritectically above 965–1020 K. Bi₂Al₄Se₈ is metastable below 825 K and is obtained only by rapid quenching from T > 825 K. The isotypic compounds crystallize in a new tetragonal tP28 structure type (P4/nnc). The characteristic unit is the hitherto unknown clustercation Bi₂⁴⁺, with the mean bond length d(Bi–Bi) = 314.2 pm, the Raman frequency 102 cm^–1 ≤ ν_s ≤ 108 cm^–1, and the mean force constant of f = 0.68 N · cm^–1. The Electron Localization Function, ELF, shows the covalent Bi–Bi bond, the lone electron pairs of the ψ-octahedrally coordinated Bi(II) cations, and the polar character of the Bi–X bonds.     

Synthesis and characterization of Ni(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) complexes with dithiophosphonate derivatives

Ammonium salts of p-methoxyphenyldithiophosphonic acid O-alkyl esters (H₃CO-C₆H₄-(RO)P(S)S⁻NH ₄ ⁺ ; R = C₂H₅,-CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂-, and cyclopentyl) and their complexes with Ni²⁺, Cd²⁺, and Zn²⁺ were prepared. 2,4-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane-2,4-disulfide, the so-called Lawesson reagent, was treated with the corresponding alcohol to give the O-alkyl ester of the acid. Dry NH₃ was then purged through the solution of this ester to form the ammonium salt of the O-alkyl dithiophosphonic acids. Nickel complexes of these ligands were formed in acetic acid, while zinc and cadmium complexes were formed in water and an ethanol medium, respectively. The geometry of the coordinated atoms was square planar with Ni²⁺ and tetrahedral with Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺. Using an alkanediol, two dithiophosphonic acids were bridged, thus forming a ligand with four S atoms for coordination. The zinc and cadmium complexes of these tetradentate ligands were also synthesized. The text was submitted by the authors in English.

Comparative Study of Lead(II) Selective Poly(vinyl chloride) Membrane Electrodes Based on Podand Derivatives as Ionophores

The two podand chelates based on diethylsulfide, 1,5‐bis(2′‐hydroxy‐4′‐nitrophenoxy)‐3‐thiapentane (L₁) and 1,5‐bis(8′‐oxybenzopyridine)‐3‐thia pentane (L₂), have been synthesized and explored as neutral ionophores for preparing poly(vinyl chloride) based membrane electrodes selective to Pb²⁺. The addition of anionic additives and various plasticizers has been found to substantially improve the performance of the electrode. The best performance was obtained with the electrode No. 1 having a membrane of ionophore (L₁) with the composition PVC:o‐NPOE:ionophore (L₁):NaTFPB (%w/w) of 33 : 62 : 3 : 2. The electrode exhibits Nernstian response with a slope of 31.57±0.3 mV decade^?1 of activity in the concentration range from 2.0×10^?9 to 1.0×10^?1 M Pb²⁺, performs satisfactorily over a wide pH range (1.6–7.0), with a fast response time (5 s).

A quantitative TLC separation of metal ions using cerium (IV) antimonate as the solid phase are described. Using an acetonitrile- HNO₃ solvent Pb²⁺ can be separated quantitatively (2–10 μg) from several other ions. A quantitative spectrophotometric assay using p-nitroso-dimethylaniline is proposed.     

99mTc-DMSA complex preparation: the effect of pH and tin(II) chloride amount on reaction

Labelling of meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) with technetium-99m was reinvestigated. Dependence of the ^99mTc-DMSA complex formation on the molar ratio of DMSA:reducing agent (SnCl₂·2H₂O) and pH was studied. Five different types of ^99mTc-DMSA complexes were determined. Especially three different complexes were established in the clinically used and prepared DMSA kit labelled with ^99mTc under alkaline condition. This radiopharmaceutical is used as imaging agent of the primary medullary carcinoma in the thyroid gland and different metastasis types. The existence of all complexes was observed by paper chromatography, paper electrophoresis and high performance liquid chromatography.     

Photometric determination of aqueous cobalt (II), nickel (II), copper (II) and iron (III) with 1-nitroso-2-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid disodium salt in gelatin films

Photometric determination of aqueous Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Fe(III) was performed using indicator films prepared by immobilization of 1-nitroso-2-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid disodium salt (NRS) into hardened photographic film. Immobilization was based on electrostatic interaction of reagent and metal complexes with the gelatin. The isoelectric point pH of hardened gelatin (4.46±0.04) was evaluated by viscometry. Co(II), Fe(III), Ni(II) form 1:3 complexes with NRS in gelatin at pH 2 and Cu(II) forms 1:2 complexes. Their log β′ values were: Co-6.7, Fe-8.6, Cu-8.0, and Ni-6.4. The absorption maxima were: 370nm for NRS, and 430nm, 470nm, 495nm and 720nm for complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Fe(III). An algorithm for their simultaneous determination using the indicator films was developed. The detection limits were: c_lim(Co²⁺) = 0.45×10⁻⁵ M, c_lim(Fe³⁺) = 0.50×10⁻⁵ M, c_lim(Cu²⁺) = 0.67×10⁻⁵ M, c_lim(Ni²⁺) = 0.75×10⁻⁵ M,; and their sum c_lim(ΣMn⁺) = 0.82×10⁻⁵ M.
