Kinetics and mechanism of the interaction of DL-methionine with cis-diaquaethylenediamine platinum(II) perchlorate in aqueous medium

The kinetics of the interaction of DL-methionine with [Pt(en)(H2O)2]2+ have been studied spectrophotometrically as a function of [Pt(en)(H2O)22+], [DL-methionine], PH and temperature. The reaction proceeds via a rapid outer sphere association followed by two slow consecutive steps having first order dependence on the aqua ion and methionine concentrations. Activation parameters have been evaluated using the Eyring equation. The low H1 (15.6 kJ mol–1) and large negative value of S1 (–230 J K–1 mol–1) as well as H2 (19.5 kJ mol–1) and S2 (–226 J K–1 mol–1) indicate an associative mode of activation for both the aqua ligand substitution processes in the two consecutive steps.     

Komplexe von Cu(II), Zn(II), Ni(II) und Mn(II) mit N-m-Tolyl-p-methylbenzhydroxamsäure

The thermodynamic proton ligand and metal ligand stability constants of N-m-tolyl-p-methylbenzohydroxamic acid with Cu(II), Zn(II), Ni(II), and Mn(II) have been determined at 25° and 35° in several dioxane-water media. The pK _a and logK ₁ (logK ₂ or log ₂) varies linearly with the mole fraction of dioxane at a given temperature but not linearly with the reciprocal of dielectric constants of the medium. Values of G ^o, H ^o, and S ^o are tubulated. The stabilities of the complexes mostly follow the order of electron affinities of the metal ions. An attempt has been made to calculate the ligand field stabilization energy of the complexes.

Thermodynamics of 2,2′,2′'-terpyridinecopper(II) complexes in aqueous solution

Summary The thermodynamic quantities relative to the protonation and the complexation of 2,2,2'-terpyridine with copper(II) ion have been determined at 25° and I=0.1 mol dm^–3 (NaNO₃). The G data was obtained by potentiometric measurements; a copper selective electrode was employed for the study of the complexation equilibria. The H values have been determined by direct calorimetry.The hydrolytic species, existing at pH>6 and their relative G and H values have also been obtained.From the thermodynamic data the importance of enthalpy and entropy terms in stabilizing the complexes is assessed.Moreover some considerations on the chelating effect are reported.Presented in part at 2 Congresso Nazionale di Chimica Analitica, Catania (1977).     

Determination of enthalpy of ionization of water from 250 to 350° C

The enthalpy changes at zero ionic strength (H°) for the ionization of water (H₂O=H⁺+OH^–) were determined by flow calorimetry from the heats of mixing of aqueous NaOH and HCl solutions in the temperature range 250 to 350°C. Pitzer ion-interaction models developed by other workers were used to calculate enthalpies of dilution of aqueous NaOH, HCl, and NaCl solutions for the extrapolation of H values from the conditions of the experiment to infinite dilution. Equations are derived for thermodynamic quantities (log K, H°, S°, C _p ^° and V°) for the ionization of water using the H° values determined in this study from 250 to 350°C and literature log K and H° values from 0 to 225°C. Smoothed values of log K, H°, S°, C _p ^° , and V° are presented at rounded temperatures from 0 to 350°C and at the saturation pressure of water for each temperature. The equations in the present study provide a better representation of experimental thermodynamic data from 0 to 350°C than the Marshall-Franck equation.     

Determination of binding energies between cyclodextrins and aromatic guest molecules by microcalorimetry

The inclusion of substituted benzoic acids in -CD or selectively methylated -CDs was investigated by titration microcalorimetry. All thermodynamic functions of the inclusion process G°, H° and S° could be obtained very accurately within one experiment. A very strong influence of the substitution pattern at both the host and the guest on the stability of the inclusion compounds was found.     

Synthesis,metal-exchange kinetics and X-ray structure of the nickel(II) complex of the diazacyclam ligand 1,3,6,10,12,15-hexa-azatricyclo [13.3.1.16,10]eicosane, [NiL] (ClO4)2

The preparation of the nickel(II) complex of the diazacyclam ligand 1,3,6,10,12,15-hexaazatricyclo [13.3.1.16,10]eicosane (2) by the reaction of the nickel(II) complex of N-(2-aminoethyl)-1,3-diaminopropane with formaldehyde in MeOH solution is described. The crystal structure of [NiL](ClO4)2 has been determined. The nickel atom is four coordinate and planar with Ni-N bond lengths of 1.969(4) and 1.928(3)Å in a centrosymmetric structure. The basic diazacyclam ring system has a trans III configuration with the two additional six-membered rings fused in a chair conformation.The kinetics of the metal exchange:for the nickel complexes (1) and (2) have been studied in detail. Under the experimental conditions employed, with copper(II) in at least a tenfold excess, the reaction is independent of the copper(II) concentration. The copper(II) effectively scavenges the free ligand as the nickel(II) complex dissociates. For the nickel complex (1) k = 2 × 10–4 s–1 at 60°C and H = 126 ± 5 kJmol–1 and S298 = 61 ± 15 JK–1mol–1. For the complex (2), k = 1.8 × 10–4 s–1 at 60°C and H = 99 ± 6 kJmol–1 and S298 = –21 ± 10 JK–1 mol–1.

Synergic extraction of Eu(III) and Tb(III) by 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone and tribenzylamine

Synergic extraction of Eu(III) and Tb(III) with 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (HTTA) and tribenzylamine (TBA) as neutral donor ligand has been studied in chloroform from perchlorate media at lower pH range. The stoichiometric composition of the adduct was established as M(TTA)₃ · 3TBA for both the elements, having a coordination number 9. The formation constants K_3,0 and K_3,3 and stability constant _3,3 of the organic phase reaction have been calculated. The effect of temperature on the extraction has also been studied. The adducts are stabilized by the large exothermic enthalpy change. The calculated thermodynamic functions such as H, S and G were used to elucidate the mechanism of synergism in which the coordination numbers of the lanthanide ions increased.     

Thermodynamics of Proton Association of Polyacrylates and Polymethacrylates in NaCl(aq)

Enthalpies of protonation of polyacrylates and polymethacrylates with different molecular weights in aqueous NaCl solutions, 0 I 2 mol-L^–1 were determined by titration calorimetry at 25°C. H values are dependent on both the neutralization degree, , and the molecular weight of polyacids. T S of protonation was obtained using pK values already reported and the present H results. Empirical equations for the dependence on I, , and molecular weight are reported for both H and T S.     

Thermodynamics of protonation of amino acid carboxylate groups from 50 to 125°C

Flow calorimetry has been used to study the interaction of glycine, DL--alanine, DL-2-aminobutyric acid, -alanine, 4-aminobutyric acid, and 6-aminocaproic acid with protons in aqueous solutions from 323.15 K to 398.15 K and at 1.52 MPa. LogK, H°, S°, and C _p ^° for the protonation of the carboxylate groups of these amino acids have been obtained at each temperature studied. Equations are given expressing these values as functions of temperature. The protonation reactions are exothermic at lower temperatures and become endothermic as temperature increases. The logK, H°, and S° values are close together over the temperature range studied for the protonation of -amino acids, i.e., glycine, DL--alanine, and 2-aminobutyric acid. At each temperature, the magnitudes of these thermodynamic quantities increase as the number of methylene groups between the amino group and the carboxylate group increases. The C _p ^° value for the protonation of the carboxyl group is found to lie between those of an isocoulombic reaction and a charge reduction reaction. At 323.15 K, the protonation reactions of the carboxylate groups have larger C _p ^° values which approach those associated with charge reduction reactions. As the temperature increases, C _p ^° decreases and approaches those found for isocoulombic reactions. This result is explained by considering long-range and short-range solvent effects. The trend in H° and S° with temperature and with charge separation in the zwitterions is interpreted in terms of solvent-solute interactions and the electrostatic interaction of the two oppositely charged groups within the molecule.

Reaction of trans-tetracyanodioxomolybdate(IV) with salicylaldehyde as an important stage in the Schiff base ligand formation. Kinetics and mechanism

The kinetics of the reaction between the protonated species of trans-[Mo(CN)4O2]4– and salicylaldehyde (Hsal) was studied in the 7.8–12.0 pH range in H2O-MeOH mixtures. Spectroscopic characterization of the product indicates that the aqua and cyano ligands are substituted by sal– with formation of the [Mo(CN)3O (sal- 2O,O)]2– ion. The formation quotient, Kf for the overall reaction=31 (±1) at 25°C. In the presence ofan excess of ligand, the rate law is of the formd[Mo(CN)3O(sal- 2O,O)2–]/dt =kobs[Mo(CN)4O (H2O)2–]. The kobs value is equal to 2.9 (±8)×10–3 at 25°C. The activation parameters H (kobs) and S (kobs) are 103 (±9)kJmol–1 and 45 (±8)JK–1mol–1, respectively. The amount of the product formed decreases with increasing pH but the rate of the product formation increases. The reaction mechanism and the possible formation of Schiff base ligands in the presence of amines are discussed.     

Kinetic studies on the solvolysis and axial ligand substitutions of bis-triphenylphosphine(cyclohexane-1,2-dione-dioximato)ruthenium(II) in non-aqueous solvents

Kinetic studies of ligand substitutions of the six-coordinated Ru^II pseudo-macrocyclic complex [Ru(CHDH)₂- (PPh₃)₂] (CHDH=cyclohexanedione-dioximato) have been spectrophotometrically investigated in a variety of solvents and at 70, 80, 85 and 90°C. The reactions studied are of the form:[(PPh₃)Ru(CHDH)₂(PPh₃)] + L =[(PPh₃)Ru(CHDH)₂L] + PPH₃ where L is imidazole, pyridine, piperidine or thiophene or a solvent molecule (PhCl, PhMe, MeCN, DMSO or DMF). The solvolysis reactions with chlorobenzene and toluene proceed to an equilibrium position favoring the bis-triphenylphosphine complex. All other reactions proceed to completion. From a mechanistic point of view the reactions were found to proceed through the formation of a five coordinate intermediate that possesses little or no discriminating ability towards the incoming nucleophiles. The rate data were thus interpreted in terms of a dissociative (D) or dissociative interchange (Id) mechanism. Activation parameters H and S are reported. Preliminary studies on the solvatochromic behavior of [Ru(CHDH)₂(PPh₃)₂] and the corresponding mixed complexes are discussed.     

A study of thermal decomposition of the solid-layered fluorocarbon,poly(carbon monofluoride)

Isothermal-thermogravimetric analyses were used to obtain kinetic data on the CF_x decomposition. Weight of samplevs. time curves were obtained for compounds having stoichiometries CF_0,61, CF_0.96, CF_1.08, and CF_1.12 for several different temperatures over the range 450–650° and in both a nitrogen atmosphere and in vacuum. A small percentage of fluorine in the atmosphere was shown to strongly inhibit thermal decomposition.These experimental results were fit to various theoretical models and it was found that a satisfactory fit was obtained by use of the Avrami equation, -In(1–)=(kt)ⁿ, where is the extent of reaction,k is an apparent rate constant, andn is an apparent reaction order. The valuen=2.0 was indicated which corresponds to planar growth of the decomposed phase.This information was combined with analytical data for the gaseous and solid products of decomposition to formulate a detailed mechanism.

The Influence of Dimerization of Water-Soluble Metalloporphyrins as Photosensitizers on the Efficiency of Generation of Singlet Oxygen

Quantum yields () for the generation of singlet oxygen sensitized by Pd(II) complexes of water-soluble porphyrins: meso-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphine [PdTMPyP]⁴⁺ ( = 0.9), meso-tetrakis(4-N,N,N-trimethylaminophenyl)porphine [PdTTMAPP]⁴⁺ ( = 0.8), meso-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine [PdTCPP]^4– ( = 0.7), and meso-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine [PdTSPP]^4– ( = 0.5) were determined using a chemical method. It was found that the dimerization and aggregation of metalloporphyrins greatly influence the value. The quantum yields evaluated for the formation of singlet oxygen sensitized by metalloporphyrin monomeric and dimeric forms are _{, M} 0.9 and _{, D} 0.2, respectively, and do not depend on the porphyrin nature.     

Oxidation of [Co(en)2(SOCH2CO2)]+ by S2O82− and by IO4− in binary aqueous solvent mixtures at pressures up to 1.25 kbar

Second order rate constants and activation parameters H, S, and V have been measured for the oxidation of [Co(en)2(SOCH2CO2)]+ by S2O82– and by IO4– in highly aqueous H2O – t-BuOH mixtures. The changes in solvation on going from the initial to the transition state are discussed on the basis of the transfer functions Gto, Hto and Sto. Whereas Gt changes smoothly as the proportion of t-BuOH increases, the plots of Ht and TSt exhibit mirror behaviour and pass through extrema located around x2(t- BuOH)=0.038. Information on the role of solvation is complemented by the determination of activation volumes. These are discussed in terms of intrinsic and solvational contributions. It is proposed that changes in hydrophobic hydration are of principal importance in determining the response of H, S, and V to changes in solvent composition in H2O – t-BuOH mixtures.     

Isokinetic relationships (IKRs) in organometallic and coordination chemistry: Reactions of Ru5C(CO)14{P(OPh)3} and other complexes

The linear compensation plot of H versus S for associative substitution reactions of Ru5C(CO)14 {P(OPh3)} with seven P-donor nucleophiles suggests that an isokinetic temperature, Tiso, of 253±10K exists. A detailed statistical analysis by the Linert-Exner method shows that the data are consistent with there being a genuine isokinetic temperature at 245K at which reactions with six out of the seven nucleophiles proceed at the same rate. This can be shown more easily, graphically more vividly, and with quantitatively the same or better results, by a simplified version of an earlier method due to Krug, Greiger et al. in which H values are found to depend linearly on corresponding values of G calculated at a suitably chosen temperature. This isokinetic behaviour is closely related to that shown by the linear free energy analysis of the rates in terms of the electronic and steric properties of the nucleophiles. The temperature dependence of the sensitivity of the rates to these electronic and steric properties suggests that the major factors involved are entropic rather than enthalpic, reactions with larger nucleophiles actually being favoured by enthalpic factors. Steric profiles obtained at different temperatures all pass through a common point with an isokinetic cone angle of 153°. A few examples of other reactions of organometallic or coordination compounds that show linear compensation plots of H versus S are also analysed by the Linert- Exner and Krug-Greiger methods. Some do show unambiguous isokinetic behaviour but others do not, even though the compensation plots appear to be linear.     

Studies on lanthanon(III) complexes ofN-methylisatin-β-amidinohydrazone

Summary The consecutive formation constants of 11 and 21 chelate species made by interaction ofN-methylisatin--amidinohydrazone (-MIAG) with tripositive lanthanons were determined potentiometrically at different ionic strengths (0.02, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 M NaClO₄) and at different temperatures (30, 40, 45 and 50 °C) in 50% v/v dioxan-H₂O. The formation constants log _n (calculated by a weighted least-squares method) for the complexes have been found to increase with the atomic number of the lanthanon, with a break at gadolinium. Thermodynamic parameters G, H and S of these complexation reactions were also evaluated.     

Study of the complex formation between 4, 6-diamine-1, 2-dihydro-2-thiopyrimidine and cobalt(II), cobalt(III), nickel(II) and copper(II) ions

Summary Reactions of 4, 6-diamine-1, 2-dihydro-2-thiopyrimidine (HDATP) with cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) ions in 12 metal:ligand ratio in aqueous media at 25°C and 0.1 M ionic strength (KNO₃), lead to the formation of both [M(DATP)]⁺ and [M(DATP)₂] species, whose stability constants were obtained.On the other hand, in aqueous or ethanolic media, solid complexes with 11, 12, or 13 stoichiometries were isolated. These have been characterized by analytical, i.r. and electronic spectral and magnetic measurement studies, and tentative structures are proposed.
