Adsorption and displacement effects in the gas-chromatography of metal beta-diketonates

A detailed study of the gas chromatography of the aluminium(III), chromium(III) and iron(III) beta-diketonates has shown that their elution and separation characteristics arise from a number of adsorptive effects. Conditions of optimal peak shape for individual compounds are established by varying Chromatographie parameters, and the adsorption of one metal chelate on a column and its subsequent displacement by another chelate are investigated. The chromatography of iron(III) beta-diketonates is seen to be further complicated by gradual elution of a portion of the chelate before the rest of the sample.

Thermal degradation behaviour of some metal chelate polymer compounds with bis(bidentate) ligand by TG/DTG/DTA

Seven novel divalent transitional metal chelate polymers compounds (commonly known as chelate compounds or metal coordination complexes or polymer complexes) have been characterized by thermogravimetry (TG), differential thermal gravimetry (DTG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) methods. Thermal decomposition behaviour of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) polymers with terphthaoyl-bis(p-methoxyphenylcarbamide) has been investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at heating rate 10 °C min^?1 under nitrogen atmosphere. TG/DTA of chelate compounds were shown to be a stable compound against thermal decomposition which was measured on the basis of final decomposing temperature, but it is observed in some curves that decomposition takes place at low temperature due to the lattice water, which is always placed at outer coordination sphere of the central metal ion. The presence of both lattice and coordinated water were noteworthy investigated in Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) chelate polymer compounds, whereas lattice water found in Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II). However, Mn(II) showed only coordinated water. Thermal stabilities for release of lattice water, coordinated water and organic moiety that occur in sequential decomposition of chelate compounds are explained on the basis of ionic size effect and electronegativity. The processes of thermal degradation taking place in seven chelate polymers were studied comparatively by TG/DTG/DTA curves which indicating the difference in the thermal decomposition. Coats–Redfern integral method is used to determine the kinetic parameters for the successive steps in the decomposition sequence of TG curves. Scanning electron microscope images of some chelate polymers were shown in previous publication revealed that particle sizes of chelate polymers were found to be of nanomaterial level therefore, resulting chelate compounds might be called as nanomaterial.     

The surface chelate effect

The presence of a surface chelate effect is established in the model system of Cu2+ adsorption on a self-assembled monolayer of 16-mercaptohexadecanoic acid (MHA) on Au. The formation constant of Cu2+ with the MHA surface was found to be 119 +/- 3.2 times greater than that of Cu2+ with succinic acid (HOOC-(CH2)2-COOH), and 213 +/- 4.0 times greater than that of Cu2+ with glutaric acid (HOOC-(CH2)3-COOH) in aqueous solutions. Both of these molecules are known to chelate to metal ions forming seven- and eight-membered rings. The greater surface chelate effect is attributed to the presence of the two-dimensional array of ligands on the surface. We believe the surface chelate effect demonstrated here is of general significance to adsorption on molecular surfaces and should depend strongly on chemical functionality and monolayer structure.     

Donor‐Appended N,C‐Chelate Organoboron Compounds: Influence of Donor Strength on Photochromic Behaviour

Recently, four‐coordinated N,C‐chelate organoboron compounds have been found to show many interesting photochemical transformations depending on the nature of their chelating framework. As such, the effect of substitution on the chelate ligand has been well‐established and understood, but the impact of the aryl groups attached to the boron atom remains less clear. To investigate the effect of enhanced charge‐transfer character, a series of new N,C‐chelate organoboron compounds with donor‐functionalized aryl groups have been synthesized and characterized using NMR, UV/Vis, and electrochemical methods. These compounds were found to possess bright and tunable charge‐transfer luminescence which is dependent on the donor strength of the amino substituent. In addition, some of these compounds undergo photochromic switching, producing dark isomers of various colors. This work establishes that donor‐functionalization of the aryl groups in N,C‐chelate boron compounds is an effective strategy for tuning both the photophysical and photochemical properties of such systems. The new findings also help elucidate the influence of electronic structure on the photoreactivity of N,C‐chelate organoboron compounds which appears to be as important as steric crowding around the boron atom.

Relationship between Coordination Structure and Biological Activity of Copper(II) Nicotinate

1 INTRODUCTION In 1945, Braude[1] found for the first time that adding copper (Cu) ten times the normal requisite amount into the feed can improve the production property of the animal obviously. Therefore, from then on copper has been widely applied in pig- breeding industry as an effective growth-promoting agent, especially in the process of intensive culture, which plays an important part in improving the growth of animal and the production property. However, at the same time, the high…     

Extractive spectrophotometric determination of micro and sub-micro amounts of fluoride

A simple and sensitive extractive spectrophotometric determination of fluoride with the cerium(III)-alizarin complexan chelate has been investigated. The fluoro chelate formed is extracted into n-pentanol containing triethylamine. It is possible to achieve under selected conditions a selective extraction of the cerium(III)alizarin complexan-fluoride chelate. The stability of the chelate, the effect of temperature and the low absorbance of the blank are discussed. It is found that it is necessary to add a pH 9 buffer before the extraction. Procedures are given for the determination of 0.1-1 mug of fluoride in a 4-ml sample and 5-25 mug of fluoride in a 90-ml sample.     

A DFT study of model complexes of zinc hydrolases and their inhibition by hydroxamic acids

DFT calculations carried out on zinc acetate and zinc hydroxamates using the Hartree-Fock and B3LYP methods with the 6-311+G basis set give a series of stable pseudotetrahedral chelates (ZnL(2)) (L = OAc, FA, AA, NMeAA, GA, SA). Addition of a water molecule to these chelates gives the hydrates, ZnL(2).H(2)O, which in all cases are energetically more stable than the corresponding chelate. Hydrates formed from O,O coordinated hydroxamate species with a five-membered chelate ring contain water molecules occupying vacant coordination sites of the zinc atom. In contrast, those formed from zinc chelates with four-membered chelate rings contain a water molecule inserted into the chelate ring to give a six-membered ring in which one hydrogen of the water molecule is H-bonded to an oxygen atom of the zinc chelate with the water oxygen strongly bonded to the zinc. A slight lengthening of the H-bonded O-H bond suggests incipient hydroxide activation of water by zinc. In contrast, the O,O bonded hydroxamates do not incorporate water into the chelate ring nor activate the water in accordance with the ability of hydroxamic acids to inhibit zinc containing metalloenzymes.     

Positron lifetime diagnostics of β-diketonates of bivalent metals

Positron lifetime diagnostics was used to study manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), and zinc(II) acetylacetonates, γ-chloro and γ-bromo chelate complexes of cobalt and nickel, and similar halo and nitro chelate complexes of copper. The dependences of the annihilation lifetime τ₂ on the metal nature and the stability constant of the metal chelate ring were established. The annihilation lifetime and intensity were found to depend not only on the electronic effect of the γ-substituent in the chelate ring but also on the structure of the complex. A comparison of the dependences of the frequencies of the C-O and M-O stretching vibrations on τ₂ revealed that a positron interacts simultaneously with the γ-carbon atoms and the O atoms of the chelate ring, whose accessibilities are determined by the structures of bis(chelates). The plots of the ionization potentials of the n-orbitals of the bis(chelates) vs. τ₂ were similar to the plots of the quenching rate constant of the benzophenone triplet vs. τ₂ in the presence of the bis(chelates).     

Study of the crystal structure of binuclear boron difluoride acetylacetonate

The molecular and crystal structure of binuclear boron difluoride acetylacetonate, in which two boron chelate moieties are linked by a disulfide group, is determined. It is found that in the crystalline state, the chelate moieties are non-equivalent. The differences identified stem from the fact that molecules crystallize in pairs: two chelate ring (one from each molecule of the pair) are linked with each other by the stacking interaction. The other chelate rings of the pair do not participate in intermolecular interactions.     

金属螯合亲和色谱中的疏水作用

通过考察盐溶盐和盐析盐浓度对蛋白质在IDA裸柱和金属螯合柱上保留行为的影响,详细研究了金属螯合色谱中的疏水作用,疏水作用的发生、形成的条件以及不同条件下对蛋白质保留值的贡献。实验结果表明,在高浓度和低浓度的盐溶盐以及低浓度盐析盐中,蛋白质在金属螯合柱上的保留主要受静电和配位作用控制,而疏水作用对蛋白质的保留影响很小。对弱亲和性的金属螯合柱以静电作用为主,其大小可用参数Q表征;对强亲和性的IDA-Cu（Ⅱ）柱以配位作用为主。仅在高浓度的盐析盐中,金属螯合柱才呈现较强的疏水作用,支配蛋白质保留。实验证明,金属螯合色谱中疏水作用主要来自固定相间隔臂中的疏水碳链和盐析盐对蛋白质的增疏作用,利用这种疏水作用有可能改善金属螯合色谱分离的选择性。     

Catalytic behavior of copper(II) chelate complexes sterically held in zeolite large cavities and fixed on its outer surface by a topological anchor

Catalytic properties of copper(II) tricyclic chelate compounds based on enamino ketone of 3-acetyl-2,4-pentanedione and 1,6-hexametylenediamine fixed on NaY and CaA zeolites by the methods of topological and topologically-anchor retention, respectively, were compared. The mode of fixation of chelates on a support affects the character of the liquid-phase catalytic oxidation of cyclohexene by molecular oxygen. At the topological fixation by a steric retention of a chelate compound in a large cavity of NaY zeolite, the reaction rate related to one reaction center of a metal complex is not proportional to the filling degree that points to inaccessibility for a substrate of catalyst molecules localized in inner cavities of crystallites. In an alternative mode of the catalyst topologically-anchor fixation, when only a ligand fragment is held in CaA zeolite, and catalytically active metal center is turned to the side of the reaction medium, the linear dependence of the cyclohexene oxidation rate on the amount of the chelate on the support is retained within the whole studied range of the surface catalyst concentrations. The catalytic activity of the topologically-anchor fixed Cu(II) chelate compound coincides with its activity in the zeolite absence, which points to a pseudo-homogeneous mode of cyclohexene oxidation. At topologically-anchor fixation of a Cu(II) chelate compound on CaA zeolite diffusion limitations characteristic for the fixation by steric retention are completely eliminated.     

Relationship between Coordination Structure and Biological Activity of Copper(Ⅱ) Nicotinate

The copper(Ⅱ) complexes of pyridine-3-carboxylic acid (nicotinic acid) and pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (isonicotinic acid) were synthesized, and their structures were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectrum, powder X-ray diffraction and so on. The results show that under experimental conditions, the ligands of synthesized copper nicotinate and copper isonicotinate are coordinated simultaneity with copper(Ⅱ) via the nitrogen of pyridine group and an oxygen of carboxylic acid group to form bidentate chelates. The crystal of copper nicotinate with two six-membered chelate rings belongs to monoclinic system, while that of copper isonicotinate having two five-membered chelate rings is of triclinic system. The tests show that the biological activities, such as the improvement of feed utilization, growth, anti-oxidation ability of organism and disease-resistant power, are different when copper nicotinate, copper inicotinate, copper-lysine chelate, copper-methionine chelate and copper sulphate are added in pig's feed, respectively. Due to its higher biological activity, less pollution and lower toxicity,copper nicotinate has wide potential applications as a feed additive.     

The synthesis and some reactions of thiophene sulfides

The reaction of some electrophilic reagents (bromine, acetyl chloride, and acetic anhydride) and of butyllithium on the zinc chelate of 2-mercapto-3-thenylidenecyclohexylamine (IIIa) is examined. Bromination and acetylation of IIIa lead to fission of the chelate ring and the formation of a complex of thienoisothiazolium bromide with ZnBr₂ (VIII), and the corresponding dimienodithiocine (X). Butyllithium combines with the C=N double bond of the chelate ring (IIIa), with the formation of the chelate XIII.For part XVI, see [16].     

Improved detection of salicylic acids using terbium-sensitized luminescence in aqueous micellar solutions of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride

The determination of salicylic, p-aminosalicylic and 5-fluorosalicylic acids was investigated using terbium-sensitized luminescence in aqueous solutions. Formation of a ternary chelate between terbium, EDTA and the salicylic acid requires dissociation of the phenol group which is adjacent to the dissociated carboxylic group. The reaction is obtained in alkaline solutions and is enhanced in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride. As evidenced by absorbance and fluorescence measurements, the cationic surfactant plays an important role in the formation of the ternary chelate and then terbium luminescence depends mainly on the extent of chelate formation. Linearity is found over more than four orders of magnitude and detection limits are in the range (2-4) x 10(-10) mol l-1 for the three acids.     

Application of adsorptive stripping voltammetry to the speciation and determination of iron(III) and total iron in wines

An analytical procedure for the determination of iron(III) and total iron in wines based on adsorptive stripping voltammetry is described. Iron(III) was determined by using Solochrome Violet Red as chelating agent while catechol was used for the determination of the total iron content. Each chelate was adsorbed on the hanging mercury electrode and the reduction current of the accumulated chelate was measured. The results obtained from the application of this procedure to wine samples are discussed.     

Influence of metal ion on chelate–aryl stacking interactions

CCSD(T)/CBS and DFT methods are employed to study the stacking interactions of acetylacetonate‐type (acac‐type) chelates of nickel, palladium, and platinum with benzene. The strongest chelate–aryl stacking interactions are formed by nickel and palladium chelate, with interaction energies of −5.75 kcal mol⁻¹ and −5.73 kcal mol⁻¹, while the interaction of platinum chelate is weaker, with interaction energy of −5.36 kcal mol⁻¹. These interaction energies are significantly stronger than stacking of two benzenes, −2.73 kcal mol⁻¹. The strongest nickel and palladium chelate–aryl interactions are with benzene center above the metal area, while the strongest platinum chelate–aryl interaction is with the benzene center above the C2 atom of the acac‐type chelate ring. These preferences arise from very different electrostatic potentials above the metal ions, ranging from very positive above nickel to slightly negative above platinum. While the differences in electrostatic potentials above metal atoms cause different geometries with the most stable interaction among the three metals, the dispersion (correlation energy) component is the largest contribution to the total interaction energy for all three metals.     

Review: recent advances in the chemistry of metal chelate monomers

This review summarizes recent advances in the chemistry of metal chelate monomers. Depending on the character of bonding of the metal to the chelating fragment, metal chelate monomers are divided into four main types: molecular metal chelates, intracomplex compounds, macrocyclic complexes, and polynuclear metal chelates. The synthetic methodologies for preparing metal chelate monomers are systematized. Special attention is paid to the effect of a metal on both the polymerization transformations of the metal chelate monomers and properties of the products formed. The bibliography includes papers published after 2010.     

Catalytic properties of monomeric and oligomeric Cu(II) phenylhydrazono imine chelates immobilized on zeolite with a topological anchor

Heterogeneous catalysts for liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexene with molecular oxygen were prepared by topological-anchor immobilization on CaA zeolite of a monomeric Cu(II) chelate with N,N′-trimethylenebis(2-methyl-1-benzoylglyoxal 1-phenylhydrazone 2-imine) and of an oligomeric product of its condensation with ethylenediamine. The samples prepared contain surface monomeric and oligomeric Cu(II) chelates oriented toward the reaction medium, which makes them accessible to reactant molecules. The catalytic properties of the above monomeric chelate are preserved in going to the oligomers. The apparent rate constants per metal center for both homogeneous (soluble monomeric chelate) and heterogeneous modes coincide, suggesting the pseudohomogeneous behavior of the supported samples. The topological-anchor immobilization of insoluble oligomeric Cu(II) polychelates on zeolite leads to their more efficient utilization as heterogeneous catalysts and can be considered as one of examples of combining advantages of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis.
