Kinetics and mechanism of the base hydrolysis of cis-eq-[Cr(NCS)(S-pdtra)]−, trans-eq-[Cr(NCS)(edtrp)]− and trans-eq-[Cr(NCS)(R-pdtrp)]− complexes. Strong rate enhancement for NCS− ligand release with an increase of [OH−] only for the trans-equatorial isomers

The [Cr(NCS)(edtrp)]⁻, [Cr(NCS)(R-pdtrp)]⁻ and [Cr(NCS)(S-pdtra)]⁻ complexes, that are derivatives of the trans-equatorial isomers of [Cr(edtrp)(H₂O)]° and [Cr(R-pdtrp)(H₂O)]° and the cis-equatorial isomer of [Cr(S-pdtra)-(H₂O)]° (edtrp = ethylenediamine-N,N,N′-tripropionate, R-pdtrp = R-propane-1,2-diamine-N,N,N′-tripropionate, S-pdtra = S-propane-1,2-diamine-N,N,N′-triacetate) undergo aquation in alkaline media with a strong dependence of the rate on [OH⁻] for the trans-equatorial isomers and a very weak dependence for the cis-equatorial isomer. The thiocyanate ligand release follows a stereoretentive course for all reactants. Based on kinetic data the reaction mechanism has been discussed. Rate differences between the isomers are interpreted in terms of an interchange via a conjugate base (I c.b.) mechanism, assuming an equilibrium between the cis-equatorial-Cr^III-S-pdtra complexes with penta- and tetradentate coordination of the edta-like ligand.

The substitution kinetics of the aqua ligand by cyanide ions in [Ru(TPPS)(CO)(H2O)]4−

Summary The reaction between the title compound, ,,,-tetra(p-sulphonatophenyl)porphynatoaquacarbonylruthenate(II), [Ru(TPPS)(CO)(H₂O)]^4–, and CN^- revealed that only the aqua ligand is substituted even in the presence of a large excess of the nucleophile. The pK _a1 was spectrophotometrically determined as 13.4(5) (at 33.2 °C) and kinetically as 13.44(5) (at 33.6 °C). The rate of aqua substitution was determined as 89(4)m ^–1 s ^–1 at 35.1 °C and the activation enthalpy and entropy as 55.44(1) kJ mol^–1 and-27.90(4) J K^–1 mol^–1, respectively.     

Kinetics and mechanism of H+(aq)-assisted aquation of [Cr(N3)(S-pdtra)]− and [Cr(N3(edtrp)]−ions

Two new complex anions, [Cr(N3)(S-pdtra)]– and [Cr(N3)(edtrp)]–, were obtained in solution by N3–/HN3 anation of the aqua analogues (S-pdtra = S-propane-1,2-diamine-N,N,N-triacetate, edtrp = ethylenediamine-N,N,N-tripropionate). Aquation of these species in acidic media leads to the same geometrical isomers as those used for the synthesis. The aquation rate is strongly dependent upon [H] and is substantially higher in D2O than in H2O. Protonation of the coordinated azide was not observed spectrophotometrically. The rate law and activation parameters have been determined and discussed.
