Conductance study of the complexation of substituted and lariat 16-crown-5 derivatives with alkali metal ions in nonaqueous solvents

Formation constants (K _ML) of 1:1 complexes of 15-(2,5-dioxahexyl)-15-methyl-16-crown-5 (L16C5) and 15,15-dimethyl-16-crown-5 (DM16C5) with alkali metal ions were determined in acetonitrile (AN) and propylene carbonate (PC) by conductometry at 25°C. Except for the case of Li⁺-and K⁺-16C5 complexes in PC, the selectivity sequences of L16C5 and DM16C5 are identical with those of the parent crown ether 16-crown-5 (16C5) regardless of the solvent (AN, PC, methanol) (Na¹ > Li⁺ > K⁺ > Rb⁺ > Cs⁺), which show the size-fit correlation.

Stabilities in Water of Alkali Metal Ion Complexes with Dibenzo-24-crown-8 and Dibenzo-18-crown-6 and Their Transfer Activity Coefficients from Water to Nonaqueous Solvents

Stability constants K _ML for the 1:1 complexes of Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, and Cs⁺ with dibenzo-24-crown-8 (DB24C8) and dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) in water have been determined by a capillary electrophoretic technique at 25°C. The K _ML sequence is Na⁺ < K⁺ < Rb⁺ < Cs⁺ for DB24C8 and Na⁺ < K⁺ > Rb⁺ > Cs⁺ for DB18C6. Compared with DB18C6, DB24C8 exhibits higher selectivity for K⁺ over Na⁺, but lower selectivity for K⁺, Rb⁺, and Cs⁺. To evaluate the solvation of the complexes in water, their transfer activity coefficients sH₂O between polar nonaqueous solvents and water have been calculated. The sH₂O values provide the following information: interactions with water of the metal ions and of the crown-ether oxygens are greatly reduced upon complexation and the complexes undergo hydrophobic hydration in water; the character of each alkali metal ion in solvation is more effectively masked by DB24C8 than by DB18C6, because of the larger and more flexible ring structure of DB24C8. Solvent effects on the complex stabilities are discussed on the basis of the sH₂O values.
