Electrical conductances of aqueous Na2SO4, H2SO4, and their mixtures: limiting equivalent ion conductances, dissociation constants, and speciation to 673 K and 28 MPa

The electrical conductivities of aqueous solutions of Na(2)SO(4), H(2)SO(4), and their mixtures have been measured at 373-673 K at 12-28 MPa in dilute solutions for molalities up to 10(-2) mol kg(-1). These conductivities have been fit to the conductance equation of Turq et al.(1) with a consensus mixing rule and mean spherical approximation activity coefficients. Provided the concentration is not too high, all of the data can be fitted by a solution model that includes ion association to form NaSO(4)(-), Na(2)SO(4)(0), HSO(4)(-), H(2)SO(4)(0), and NaHSO(4)(0). The adjustable parameters of this model are the dissociation constants of the SO(4)(-) species and the H(+), SO(4)(-2), and HSO(4)(-) conductances (ion mobilities) at infinite dilution. For the 673 K and 230 kg m(-3) state point with the lowest dielectric constant, epsilon = 3.5, where the Coulomb interactions are the strongest, this model does not fit the experimental data above a solution molality of 0.016. Including the species H(9)(SO(4))(5)(-) gave satisfactory fits to the conductance data at the higher concentrations.     

A Kirkwood-Buff Derived Force Field for Aqueous Alkali Halides

A classical nonpolarizable force field is presented for the simulation of aqueous alkali halide solutions (MX), where M = Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), Cs(+) and X = F(-), Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), and their interactions with biomolecules. The models are specifically designed to reproduce the experimental Kirkwood-Buff integrals, and thereby the solution salt activities, as a function of salt concentration. Additionally, we demonstrate that these models reasonably reproduce other experimental properties including ion diffusion constants, dielectric decrements, and the excess heats of mixing. The parameters are developed by considering the properties of aqueous NaX and MCl solutions using a previously established model for NaCl. Transferability of the parameters to other salts is then established by the successful simulation of additional aqueous salt solutions, KI and CsBr, not originally included in the parameterization procedure.     

Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric study of salt cluster ions: part 2--salts of polyatomic acid groups and of multivalent metals

Salt cluster ions formed from 0.05 M solutions of CaCl(2), CuCl(2) and Na(A)B (where A = 1 or 2 and B = CO(3)(2-), HCO(3)(-), H(2)PO(4)(-) and HPO(4)(2-)) were studied by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. The effects on salt cluster ions of droplet pH and of redox reactions induced by electrospray provide information on the electrospray process. CaCl(2) solution yielded salt cluster ions of the form (CaCl(2))(n)(CaCl)(x)(x+) and (CaCl(2))(n)(Cl)(y)(y-), where x, y = 1-3, in positive- and negative-ion modes, respectively. Upon collision induced dissociation (CID), singly charged CaCl(2) cluster ions fragmented, doubly charged cluster ions generated either singly or both singly and doubly charged fragment ions, depending on the cluster mass, and triply charged clusters fragmented predominantly by the loss of charged species. CuCl(2) solution yielded nine series of cluster ions of the form (CuCl(2))(n)(CuCl)(m) plus Cu(+), CuCl(+), or Cl(-). CuCl, the reductive product of CuCl(2), was observed as a neutral component of positively and negatively charged cluster ions. Free electrons were formed in a visible discharge that bridged the gap between the electrospray capillary and the sampling cone brought about the reduction of Cu(2+) to Cu(+). Upon CID, these cluster ions fragmented to lose CuCl(2), CuCl, Cl, and Cl(2). Na(2)CO(3) and NaHCO(3) solutions yielded cluster ions of the form (Na(2)CO(3))(n) plus Na(+) or NaCO(3)(-). Small numbers of NaHCO(3) molecules were found in some cluster ions obtained with the NaHCO(3) solution. For both Na(2)HPO(4) and NaH(2)PO(4) solutions, ions of the form (Na(2)HPO(4))(h), (NaH(2)PO(4))(i), (Na(3)PO(4))(j), (NaPO(3))(k) plus Na(+), PO(3)(-) or H(2)PO(4)(-) were observed. In addition, ions having one or two phosphoric acid (H(3)PO(4)) molecules were observed from the NaH(2)PO(4) solution while ions containing one sodium hydroxide (NaOH) molecule were observed from the Na(2)HPO(4) solution. The cluster ions observed from these four salts of polyatomic acid groups indicate that changes in pH occur in both directions during the electrospray process principally by solvent evaporation; the pH value of the acidic solution became lower and that of the basic solution higher.     

A new surface structural approach to ion adsorption: tracing the location of electrolyte ions

Electrolyte ions differ in size leading to the possibility that the distance of closest approach to a charged surface differs for different ions. So far, ions bound as outersphere complexes have been treated as point charges present at one or two electrostatic plane(s). However, in a multicomponent system, each electrolyte ion may have its own distance of approach and corresponding electrostatic plane with an ion-specific capacitance. It is preferable to make the capacitance of the compact part of the double layer a general characteristic of the solid-solution interface. A new surface structural approach is presented that may account for variation in size of electrolyte ions. In this approach, the location of the charge of the outersphere surface complexes is described using the concept of charge distribution in which the ion charge is allowed to be distributed over two electrostatic planes. It was shown that the concept can successfully describe the pH dependent proton binding and the shift in the isoelectric point (IEP) in the presence of variety of monovalent electrolyte ions, including Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Cs(+), Cl(-), NO(-)(3), and ClO(-)(4) with a common set of parameters. The new concept also sheds more light on the degree of hydration of the ions when present as outersphere complexes. Interpretation of the charge distribution values obtained shows that Cl(-) ions are located relatively close to the surface. The large alkali ions K(+), Cs(+), and Rb(+) are at the largest distance. Li(+), Na(+), NO(-)(3), and ClO(-)(4) are present at intermediate positions.

Interactions of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (dtpa) and triethylenetetraaminehexaacetic acid (ttha) with major components of natural waters

The binding ability of diethylene triamine pentaacetate (dtpa(5-)) and triethylene tetraamine hexaacetate (ttha(6-)) ligands towards major components, H(+), Na(+), Mg(2+) and Ca(2+), of natural waters was studied in both single and mixed ionic media at different ionic strengths and at T=25 degrees C. Some measurements, performed in Mg(2+)-Ca(2+) mixtures, allowed us to find the formation of new mixed species MgCa(dtpa), MgCa(ttha) and MgCaH(ttha), here reported for the first time. All the complexes formed in the various systems were characterized in terms of both stoichiometry and stability, and an attempt was made to find general rules for the stability of mixed metal complexes in comparison with that of simple species. To obtain quantitative information on the complexing ability of dtpa and ttha in seawater, measurements have been carried out in artificial seawater ionic medium (Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+), Mg(2+), Cl(-) and SO(4)(2-)). Calculations, performed by considering the salt mixture as single salt BA, allowed us to find some quite stable B(i)H(j)L species. Under the natural seawater conditions [S(salinity)=35], we found for the most important species logbeta( B(dtpa))=9.64 and. Literature data comparison is also reported.     

A kinetic study on the pairwise competition reaction of alpha-diazo esters with rhodium(II) catalysts: implication for the mechanism of Rh(II)-carbene transfer.

The relative rate constants for the Rh(II)-mediated diazo decomposition of a series of para- or meta-substituted diazophenylacetates were measured through intermolecular competition. The kinetic data were further subjected to Hammett correlation analysis and were found to have better linear correlation with sigma(+). Reaction constants for four Rh(II) catalysts have been obtained, Rh(2)(OAc)(4) (rho = -1.29 with sigma(+), r = -0.99), Rh(2)(Ooct)(4) (rho = -1.31 with sigma(+), r = -0.99), Rh(2)(acam)(4) (rho = -1.18 with sigma(+), r = -0.99), Rh(2)(O(2)CCF(3))(4) (rho = -1.46 with sigma(+), r = -0.99). The mechanistic implications of these data are discussed.     

Ion-pair formation between Cd(II), Na(I), and Ag(I) complex ions with 18-crown-6 ether derivatives and various pairing anions in water: an understanding of the ion-pair formation based on the HSAB principle

The ion-pair formation constants (K(MLX)(0)/mol(-1) dm(3)) of CdL(2+) with Br(-) or NaL(+) with N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate ion (DDTC(-)) in water were determined potentiometrically at 25°C; ionic strength (I)→0: L denotes 18-crown-6 ether (18C6) and its mono-benzo derivative for the CdBr(2)-L system and 15-crown-5 ether and 18C6 for the NaDDTC-L one. The formation constant corresponding to the simple salt, NaDDTC, in water was also determined at I→0. Using the log K(CdLX)(0) values of CdLCl(+), CdLBr(+), CdLPic(+), and CdLSO(4), then CdL(2+) and picrate ion (Pic(-)) in water have been classified with the hard and soft acids and bases principle, where the values were available in the literature, except for CdLBr(+). The same classification was examined in NaX-L systems with X(-) = DDTC(-), trifluoroacetate ion, MnO(4)(-), ReO(4)(-), Pic(-), and BPh(4)(-) and the AgPic-L one. Consequently, CdL(2+), NaL(+), and AgL(+) were classified as the hard acids, while Pic(-) and BPh(4)(-) as the hard bases. These results reflected the reactivities of the complex ions in ion-pair formation with X(-) and SO(4)(2-) in water.     

Polymeric zinc ferrocenyl sulfonate as a molecular aspirator for the removal of toxic metal ions

A porous bilayered open coordination polymer [Zn(4,4'-bpy)(2)(FcphSO(3))(2)](n) (1; FcphSO(3)Na=m-ferrocenyl benzenesulfonate), has been assembled from Zn(NO(3))(2), m-ferrocenyl benzenesulfonate, and the bridging ligand 4,4'-bipyridine (4,4'-bpy). Ion-exchange induced products [Cd(0.6)Zn(0.4)(4,4'-bpy)(2)(FcphSO(3))(2)](n) (2), [Zn(0.75)Pb(0.25)(4,4'-bpy)(2)(FcphSO(3))(2)](n) (3), and [Cu(0.5)Zn(0.5)(4,4'-bpy)(2)(FcphSO(3))(2)](n) (4) could be obtained directly by suspending a big single crystal of 1 into concentrated solutions of Cd(NO(3))(2), Pb(NO(3))(2), and Cu(NO(3))(2), respectively. Most importantly, the big single crystal of 1 could be partly regenerated after immersion into concentrated aqueous solutions of Zn(NO(3))(2). On the other hand, powdered 1 could also be used as a metal ion adsorbent because of the well-defined pore size and pore shape. Ion exchange takes place along with the process of ion sorption. The big single crystal of 1 removes harmful metal ions by means of ion exchange, whereas powdered 1 removes toxic metal ions mainly through ion sorption. Also, compound 1 could be employed as a multi-ion analysis fluorescent probe to detect dangerous metal ions, such as Pb(2+), Cd(2+), Ag(+), and Cu(2+). The compounds described in this study may have potential applications in the design of new molecular devices.     

Determination of common inorganic anions and cations by non-suppressed ion chromatography with column switching

An ion chromatography (IC) method has been proposed for the determination of seven common inorganic anions (F(-), H(2)PO(4)(-), NO(2)(-), Cl(-), Br(-), NO(3)(-), and SO(4)(2-)) and/or five common inorganic cations (Na(+), NH(4)(+), K(+), Mg(2+), and Ca(2+)) using a single pump, a single eluent and a single detector. The present system used cation-exchange and anion-exchange columns connected in series via a single 10-port switching valve. The 10-port valve was switched for the separation of either cations or anions in a single chromatographic run. When 1.0mM trimellitic acid (pH 2.94) was used as the eluent, the seven anions and the five cations could be separated on the anion-exchange column and the cation-exchange column, respectively. The elution order was found to be F(-)相似文献   

Surface Complexation Modeling of K(+), NO(3)(-), SO(4)(2-), Ca(2+), F(-), Co(2+), and Cr(3+) Ion Adsorption on Silica Gel

Surface complex formation of K(+), NO(3)(-), SO(4)(2-), Ca(2+), F(-), Co(2+), and Cr(3+) ions was determined on the surface of silica gel. Experimental data obtained by acid-base titration of suspensions were interpreted in terms of the triple-layer model. The value of the deprotonation constant of surface OH could be determined precisely but the protonation constant was rather uncertain. The logarithms of ion pair formation constants for K(+), NO(3)(-), Ca(2+), and SO(4)(2-) adsorbed in the beta-plane are log K(ipM,X) approximately 0, therefore these species can be considered inert ions in the investigated pH range. F(-), Co(2+), and Cr(3+) ions were found to be strongly sorbed in the o-plane. In order to provide a good fit and to obtain parameters independent of their initial values, all possible equilibrium must be accounted for in the models. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.     

Structures and solution dynamics of pseudorotaxanes mediated by alkali-metal cations

Kinetic stability studies of a series of pseudorotaxanes formed from electron-rich crown ethers (hosts and ) and naphthalene diimide (guest ) in the presence of alkali salt templates MX (where M(+) = Li(+) and Na(+), and X(-) = Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), NO(3)(-) and CF(3)SO(3)(-)) were performed by (1)H NMR. The switching between the (bound) host and its linkage isomer host (free) was monitored in solution in the presence and absence of alkali salts, to establish the relative thermodynamic stabilities in the series. We also report here six new crystal structures, for pseudorotaxanes of type: [.], [M(2)..](2+) and [M(2)..](2+). Their solution-phase structures are in good agreement with the solid-state structures determined by X-ray crystallography.     

Self-assembled ionophores from isoguanosine: diffusion NMR spectroscopy clarifies cation's and anion's influence on supramolecular structure

Cation-templated self-assembly of the lipophilic isoguanosine (isoG 1) with different monovalent cations (M(+)=Li(+), Na(+), K(+), NH(4) (+), and Cs(+)) was studied in solvents of different polarity by using diffusion NMR spectroscopy. Previous studies that did not use diffusion NMR techniques concluded that isoG 1 forms both pentamers (isoG 1)(5)M(+) and decamers (isoG 1)(10)M(+) in the presence of alkali-metal cations. The present diffusion NMR studies demonstrate, however, that isoG 1 does not form (isoG 1)(5)M(+) pentamers. In fact, the diffusion NMR data indicates that both doubly charged decamers of formula (isoG 1)(10)2 M(+) and singly charged decamers, (isoG 1)(10)M(+), are formed with lithium, sodium, potassium, and ammonium tetraphenylborate salts (LiB(Ph)(4), KB(Ph)(4), NaB(Ph)(4) and NH(4)B(Ph)(4)), depending on the isoG 1:salt stoichiometry of the solution. In the presence of CsB(Ph)(4), isoG 1 affords only the singly charged decamers (isoG 1)(10)Cs(+). By monitoring the diffusion coefficient of the B(Ph)(4) (-) ion in the different mixtures of solvents, we also concluded that the anion is more strongly associated to the doubly charged decamers (isoG 1)(10)2 M(+) than to the singly charged decamers (isoG 1)(10)M(+). The (isoG 1)(10)2 M(+) species can, however, exist in solution without the mediation of the anion. This last conclusion was supported by the finding that the doubly charged decamers (isoG 1)(10)2 M(+) also prevail in 1:1 CD(3)CN:CDCl(3), a solvent mixture in which the B(Ph)(4) (-) ion does not interact significantly with the self-assembled complex. These diffusion measurements, which have provided new and improved structural information about these decameric isoG 1 assemblies, demonstrate the utility of combining diffusion NMR techniques with conventional NMR methods in seeking to characterize labile, multicomponent, supramolecular systems in solution, especially those with high symmetry.     

Characterization of silicate monomer with sodium,calcium and strontium but not with lithium and magnesium ions by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry

Fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FABMS) was applied to the direct detection of silica species dissolved in LiCl, NaCl, MgCl(2), CaCl(2) and SrCl(2) solutions in order to investigate its dissolution process in solution. Several species of dissolved silicate complexes in the solution were directly detected by FABMS. The peak intensities of [SiO(2)(OH)(2)Na](-), [SiO(3)(OH)Ca](-) and [SiO(3)(OH)Sr](-) increased with increasing concentrations of NaCl, CaCl(2) and SrCl(2), whereas the peak intensities of [SiO(2)(OH)(2)Li](-) and [SiO(3)(OH)Mg](-) did not increase with increasing concentrations of LiCl and MgCl(2). These results indicte that silicate and cation bind in the solution not after but before ionization. The isotope pattern of Sr(2+) confirmed the existence of the silicate-Sr complex not only with increase of the concentration of silica but also the mass numbers of Sr. The silicate complexes formed with Na(+), Ca(2+) and Sr(2+) showed high stability in chloride solution. This is in good accordance with the fact that Na(+), Ca(2+) and Sr(2+) accelerate the dissolution of silica to form complexes during solution equilibrium. Considering that the stability constant was examined and reported in other papers, this new findings that Mg(2+) does not form a complex with silicic acid (Si(OH)(4)) is very important.     

A transferable ab initio based force field for aqueous ions

We present a new polarizable force field for aqueous ions (Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), Cs(+), Mg(2 +), Ca(2 +), Sr(2 +), and Cl(-)) derived from condensed phase ab initio calculations. We use maximally localized Wannier functions together with a generalized force and dipole-matching procedure to determine the whole set of parameters. Experimental data are then used only for validation purposes and a good agreement is obtained for structural, dynamic, and thermodynamic properties. The same procedure applied to crystalline phases allows to parametrize the interaction between cations and the chloride anion. Finally, we illustrate the good transferability of the force field to other thermodynamic conditions by investigating concentrated solutions.     

Structural phase transition of magnetic [Ni(dmit)2]- salts induced by supramolecular cation structures of (M+)([12]crown-4)2

Sandwich-type supramolecular cation structures of (M(+))([12]crown-4)(2) complexes (M(+) = Li(+), Na(+), K(+), and Rb(+)) were introduced as countercations to the [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) anion, which bears an S = (1)/(2) spin, to form novel magnetic crystals (dmit(2-) = 2-thione-1,3-dithiole-4,5-dithiolate). The zigzag arrangement of Li(+)([12]crown-4)(2) cations in Li(+)([12]crown-4)(2)[Ni(dmit)(2)](-) salt induced weak intermolecular interactions of [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) dimers, whose magnetic spins were isolated from each other. The molecular arrangements of cations and anions in M(+)([12]crown-4)(2)[Ni(dmit)(2)](-) salts (M(+) = Na(+), K(+), and Rb(+)) were isostructural to each other. In the case of Na(+)([12]crown-4)(2)[Ni(dmit)(2)](-), the space group C2/m changed to C2/c with a lowering in temperature from 298 to 100 K. This structural change occurred at 222.5 K as a first-order phase transition. The space group C2/m (T = 298 K) in the salt K(+)([12]crown-4)(2)[Ni(dmit)(2)](-) also changed to C2/c (T = 100 K), which transition occurred at 270 K. Crystal structural analyses at 298 and 100 K revealed changes in both supramolecular cation conformation and [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) anion arrangements. The transition from C2/m to C2/c crystals generated a dipole moment in the Na(+)([12]crown-4)(2) and K(+)([12]crown-4)(2) structures, which were reconstructed to cancel the net dipole moment of the C2/c crystals. These cation transformations led to changes in intermolecular interactions between the [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) anions via structural rearrangements. The crystal structure of C2/c was stabilized in Rb(+)([12]crown-4)(2)[Ni(dmit)(2)](-) at 298 K. The [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) configuration in these salts with the C2/c space group was a one-dimensional uniform chain, which showed the temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility of a one-dimensional linear Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain.     

Indirect spectrophotometric determination of sulphide with the ternary complex system Ag(I)-phen-BPR

Trace amounts of sulphide can be determined from its effect on the ternary complex system of Ag(+), Bromopyrogallol Red (BPR), and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen). Sulphide in the range 5-120 ng/ml causes a decrease in absorption, that is a linear function of the concentration. Common metal ions such as Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+), Mg(2+), Al(3+), Mn(2+) and anions such as F(-), Cl(-), NO(-)(3), SO(2-)(4), CO(2-)(3), and PO(3-)(4) at the 4 mug/ml level or more do not interfere, but I(-) or CN(-) must be absent.     

Adduct formation between alkali metal ions and anionic LV(V)O(2)(-) (L(2-) = tridentate ONS ligands) species: syntheses, structural investigation, and photochemical studies

Syntheses of alkali metal adducts [LVO(2)M(H(2)O)(n)] (1-7) (M = Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), and Cs(+); L = L(1)(-)L(3)) of anionic cis-dioxovanadium(V) species (LVO(2)(-)) of tridentate dithiocarbazate-based Schiff base ligands H(2)L (S-methyl-3-((5-(R-2-hydroxyphenyl))methyl)dithiocarbazate, R = H, L = L(1); R = NO(2), L = L(2); R = Br, L = L(3)) have been reported. The LVO(2)(-) moieties here behave like an analogue of carboxylate group and have displayed interesting variations in their binding pattern with the change in size of the alkali metal ions as revealed in the solid state from the X-ray crystallographic analysis of 1, 3, 6, and 7. The compounds have extended chain structures, forming ion channels, and are stabilized by strong Coulombic and hydrogen-bonded interactions. The number of coordinated water molecules in [LVO(2)M(H(2)O)(n)] decreases as the charge density on the alkali metal ion decreases (n = 3.5 for Na(+) and 1 for K(+) and Rb(+), while, for Cs(+), no coordinated water molecule is present). In solution, compounds 1-7 are stable in water and methanol, while in aprotic solvents of higher donor strengths, viz. CH(3)CN, DMF and DMSO, they undergo photoinduced reduction when exposed to visible light, yielding green solutions from their initial yellow color. The putative product is a mixed-oxidation (mu-oxo)divanadium(IV/V) species as revealed from EPR, electronic spectroscopy, dynamic (1)H NMR, and redox studies.
