Different-ligand coordination compounds of nickel(II) with 1,3-dicarboxypropane-1-iminodiacetic acid and dicarboxylic acids in aqueous solutions

The equilibria in the ternary systems containing a nickel(II) salt and 1,3-dicarboxypropane-1-iminodiacetic acid and dicarboxylic acids (oxalic, malonic and succinic) were studied by spectrophotometry with supporting perchlorate (NaClO₄) for I = 0.1 at T = 20 ± 2°C. The stoichiometry and pH regions of existence of different-ligand complexes were determined; the stability constants of these complexes were calculated. The accumulation fractions of the complexes as functions of acidity were found. The experimental data were treated with mathematical models that estimate the possibility of existence of a broad range of complex species in solution and distinguish those of them that are sufficient to reproduce the observed picture.     

Thermodynamics and kinetics of complexation of iron(III) ion by picolinic and dipicolinic acids

The complexation reactions of iron(III) with 2-pyridine carboxylic acia (picolinic acid) and 2,6-pyridine dicarboxylic acid (dipicolinic acid) in aqueous solutions have been studied by spectrophotometric and stopped flow techniques. Equilibrium constants were determined for the 1 : 1 complexes at temperatures between 25 and 80°C. The values obtained are: Picolinic Acid (HL): Fe³⁺+ H₂L⁺? FeHL³⁺+H+(K₁ = 2.8,ΔH = 2 kcal mole^?1 at 25°C, μ = 2.67 M) Dipicolinic Acid (H₂D): Fe³⁺+H₂D? FeD⁺+2H⁺(K₁K_1A= 227 M, ΔH = 3.4 kcal mole^?1 at 25°C,μ = 1.0 M). The rate constants for the formation of these complexes are also given. The results are used to evaluate the effects of these two acids upon the rate of dissolution of iron(III) from its oxides.     

Sorption of small amounts of europium(III) on iron(III) hydroxide and oxide

The sorption of small amounts of europium(III) on iron(III) hydroxide and oxide has been studied as a function of pH. The mechanism of sorption is discussed. Optimum conditions have been found for the preconcentration of small or trace amounts of europium(III) by iron(III) hydroxide and oxide. The influence of complexing agents (EDTA, oxalate, tartrate and 5-sulfosalicylic acid) on the sorption of small amounts of europium(III) on iron(III) oxide has also been studied.     

Synthesis of 1λ4,2-diselenol-1-ylium salts

Seven bis-(1λ⁴,2-diselenol-1-ylium) tetrachloroferrates have been prepared by reaction of 1,3-diketones or 1,3-ketoaldehydes with hydrogen selenide and iron(III) chloride in ethanol saturated with hydrogen chloride. They decompose gradually in air. The corresponding 1λ⁴,2-diselenol-1-ylium perchlorates have been prepared by reaction of the tetrachloroferrates with perchloric acid in acetic acid and are stable. The tetrachloroferrates react with benzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate to give 6,6aλ⁴-diselena-1,2-diazapentalenes.

Glyoxylic acid gives a yellow 1:1 complex, [FeCHOCOO]²⁺ with iron(III). The dissociation contant, measured by two spectrophotometric methods, is K = 9.7 ± 1 mol l^?1. Oxalic acid gives two complexes with iron(III) which absorb in the same range around 400 nm. With appropriate precautions and corrections, oxalic acid concentrations of about 10^?1–10^?2 M can be determined in the presence of glyoxylic acid and chloride.

Selective separations by reactive ion exchange: Part II. preconcentration and determination of complex iron cyanides in waters

Reactive ion exchange has been applied to the determination of p.p.b. concentrations of hexacyanoferrate(II) and hexacyanoferrate(III) in various water matrices. The in situ precipitation of copper hexacyanoferrate(II) or hexacyanoferrate(III) preconcentrates the complex cyanides on shallow beds of sulfonated cation-exchange resin in the copper(II) form. Hydrochloric acid reactively elutes other cations including concomitant iron species from the resin bed and, finally, aqueous ammonia reactively releases and elutes the hexacyanoferrate(II) (or III) species through the formation of the copper-ammine complex. Preconcentration factors of 100 or more are possible when 1-1 samples are used. Final determination of the complex cyanides is performed by atomic absorption spectrometry (for iron).     

Optical fibre reflectance sensor for the determination and speciation analysis of iron in fresh and seawater samples coupled to a multisyringe flow injection system

A novel optical fibre reflectance sensor coupled to a multisyringe flow injection system (MSFIA) for the determination and speciation analysis of iron at trace level using chelating disks (iminodiacetic groups) is proposed. Once iron(III) has been retained onto a chelating disk, an ammonium thiocyanate stream is injected in order to form the iron(III)-thiocyanate complex which is spectrophotometrically detected at 480 nm. Iron(III) is eluted with 2 M hydrochloric acid so that the chelating disk is regenerated for subsequent experiments. The determination of total iron is achieved by the on-line oxidation of iron(II) to iron(III) with a suitable hydrogen peroxide stream.A mass calibration was feasible in the range from 0.001 to 0.25 μg. The detection limit (3s_b/S) was 0.001 μg. The repeatability (RSD), calculated from nine replicates using 1 ml injections of a 0.1 mg/l concentration, was 2.2%. The repeatability between five chelating disks was 3.6%. The applicability of the proposed methodology in fresh and seawater samples has been proved.The proposed technique has been validated by replicate analysis (n = 4) of certified reference materials of water with satisfactory results.

The parent dipicolinic acid complexes are found to have a six-coordinate pseudooctahedral structure, whereas for mixed ligand complexes, a polymeric six-coordinate structure has been assigned. Various ligand field and nephelauxetic parameters have also been evaluated.

Spectrophotometric Determination of Diphenadione Via its Metal Complexes

Abstract

Spectrophotometric procedure is described for the quantitative determination of diphenadione [2-(diphenylacetyl)-1,3-indandione], based on direct spectrophotometric measurements of the absorbances of its iron (III), iron (II) and cobalt (II), metal complexes at 488 nm, 505 nm and (334 nm, 372 nm), respectively. The drug reacts with metals in the ratio of 3:1 and 2:1 for iron (III) and for both iron (II) and cobalt (II) respectively. The obtained complexes have apparent molar absorptivities of 1.48 × 10³ 1 mol^?1 cm^?1, 0.714 × 10³ 1 mol^?1cm^?1 and (1.70 × 10³ 1 mol^?1cm^?1, 1.93 × 10³ 1 mol^?1cm^?1) for iron (III), iron (II) and cobalt (II) complexes, respectively. The procedure is suggested for the determination of 51–400 μg.ml^?1 diphenadione via the iron (II) complex and 35–170 μg.ml^?1 diphenadione via both cobalt (II) and iron (III) complexes. The suggested procedure has accuracies of 99.79 ± 0.67%, 99.64 ± 0.37% and (100.09 ± 0.53%, 99.99 ± 0.42%) for the metal complexes of iron (III), iron (II) and cobalt (II), respectively.

Flow-injection determination of total iron in freshwater samples with neutralisation chemiluminescence

A flow-injection chemiluminescence method has been established for the determination of total iron in freshwater samples. The enhanced chemiluminescence emission was caused by the iron(II) from the neutralisation reaction of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide without the use of any chemiluminescent reagent. The calibration graph was linear in the concentration range of 2.8–560 µg L^?1 (r ² = 0.9983, n = 8), with relative standard deviation (RSD; n = 4) in the range of 0.8–2.6%. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) was 0.56 µg L^?1 with injection throughput of 180 h^?1. The effect of common anions and cations were studied over their environmentally relevant concentrations in freshwaters. The method was successfully applied to determine total iron in freshwater samples. Iron(III) was reduced to iron(II) by using hydroxylammonium chloride. The proposed method was compared with spectrophotometric method and there was no significant difference between the two methods at the 95% confidence level (t-test). Analysis of river water (certified reference material SLRS-4) for iron(II), after reduction of iron(III) with hydroxylammonium chloride, gave good results (2.17 ± 0.22 µM compared with the certificate value of 1.85 ± 0.1 µM).     

Synthesis, spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry of new iron(III) complexes with 5-methyl-3-formyl pyrazole 3-hexamethyleneiminyl thiosemicarbazone (HMPz3Hex): X-ray crystallographic identification of [Fe(MPz3Hex)2]ClO4 · 2H2O with an indication for unusual rotation about the azomethine double bond on complexation with iron(III)

New iron(III) complexes of 5-methyl-3-formylpyrazole 3-hexamethyleneiminylthiosemicarbazone (HMPz3Hex), [Fe(MPz3Hex)₂]X · nH₂O (where X = Cl, NO₃or ClO₄ and n = 1–2) have been synthesized and physico-chemically characterized by magnetic data (polycrystalline state), electronic, i.r. and e.p.r. spectral studies. The reported complexes are all cationic electrolytes (1:1) containing two moles of monodeprotonated title ligand and an anionic counterpart. I.r. spectra (4000–200 cm^?1) indicate coordination to the central iron(III) ion via the pyrazolyl (tertiary) ring nitrogen, azomethine nitrogen and thiolato sulphur atoms of the primary ligand molecule. E.p.r. data (r.t. and l.n.t.) show the presence of a low-spin iron(III) cation with d _xz ² d _xz ² d _xz ¹ configuration. Cyclic voltammograms of iron(III) complexes indicate a reversible Fe⁺³/Fe⁺² couple. X-ray data of [Fe(MPz3Hex)₂]ClO₄ · 2H₂O (P₁, triclinic) authenticate a FeN₄S₂ distorted octahedral coordination with the two azomethine nitrogens trans to each other; the pyrazolyl nitrogens and thiolato sulphurs are in cis-positions, indicating an unusual rotation about the azomethine (C=N) double bond of the free HMPz3Hex during complexation with iron(III).     

Spectrophotometric determination of thiocyanate ions in stratal waters

The formation of [FeSCN]²⁺ complex in hydrochloric and sulfuric acid medium was studied by spectrophotometry using iron(III) sulfate and ammonium iron(III) sulfate solutions as reactants. A method for the determination of 10–200 μg SCN^? in 25 mL water solutions containing ammonium iron(III) sulfate in sulfuric acid medium was developed; its determination limit is 2.6 μg (P = 0.99, n = 9). The method was applied for the analysis of model water samples with macro- and micro-component compositions similar to that of water from the Arigol licensed area. Operational control of the accuracy rate was performed by the standard addition method. The developed method can be applied to analyze water samples containing 1–90 mg/L thiocyanate ions.     

Iron carbonyl complexes of 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(methylene)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane. Crystal and molecular structure of (C10H10O)Fe(CO)3 and (C9H10CO)Fe2(CO)6

The reaction of 2,3,5,6-tetrakis(methylene)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (I) with iron carbonyls in various solvents yields the (η⁴-1,3-diene)Fe(CO)₃ isomers (II: exo; III: endo) and the bimetallic isomers bis[(η⁴-1,3-diene)Fe(CO)₃] (IV: bis(exo); V: endo,exo). In weakly coordinating solvents, a parallel rearrangement of I occurs through CO bond cleavage of the allylic ether by Fe₂(CO)₉ yielding an unsaturated ketone (VI) bonded to two Fe(CO)₃ groups through a trimethylenemethane and a 1,3-diene system, respectively. The geometries of III and VI have been ascertained by X-ray crystal structure determinations.     

Ternary Complexes of La(III), Ce(III), Pr(III) or Er(III) with Adenosine 5′-mono, 5′-di,and 5′-triphosphate as Primary Ligands and some Biologically Important Zwitterionic Buffers as Secondary Ligands

Equilibrium constant measurements have been performed potentiometrically at (25±0.1) °C and an ionic strength I=0.1 mol⋅dm⁻³ KNO₃ for the interaction of La(III), Ce(III), Pr(III) and Er(III) with the purine nucleotides adenosine 5′-mono, 5′-di, and 5′-triphosphate and with the biologically relevant secondary ligand zwitterionic buffers 3-(cyclohexyl amino)-1-propanesulfonic acid (CAPS), 3-(cyclohexylamino)-2-hydroxy-1-propane sulfonic acid (CAPSO), N-tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl-3-aminopropanesulfonic acid (TAPS), 3-[N-bis(hydroxyethyl)amino]-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid (DIPSO), N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)glycine (BICINE), and N-(2-acetamido)-2-iminodiacetic acid (ADA) in a 1:1:1 ratio. The formation of various 1:1:1 normal and protonated mixed-ligand complex species was inferred from the potentiometric pH titration curves. The experimental conditions were selected such that self-association of the purine nucleotides and their complexes was negligibly small; that is, the monomeric normal and protonated ternary complexes were studied. Initial estimates of the formation constants of the resulting species and the acid dissociation constants of adenosine 5′-mono-, 5′-di-, and 5′-triphosphate and the zwitterionic buffer secondary ligands were refined with the Superquade computer program. In some Ln(III) mixed-ligand systems, interligand interactions between the coordinating ligands, possibly involving H-bond formation, have been found to be the most important factors in deciding the stability of the mixed-ligand complexes in solutions. The thermodynamic ΔG° values of the monomeric normal and protonated ternary complexes were calculated and discussed.

Two heteronuclear germanium(IV) and lanthanum(III) (chromium(III)) complexes with 1,3-diamino-2-propanoltetraacetic acid (H₅Hpdta) have been synthesized. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis and X-ray powder diffraction data. The structure of [Ge(OH)(??-Hpdta)(??-OH)La(H₂O)₄] · H₂O (I) has been determined by X-ray crystallography.

Compound I is composed of binuclear [Ge(OH)(??-Hpdta)(??-OH)La(H₂O)₄] molecules and crystal water molecules. In the dimeric molecule, the germanium and lanthanum atoms are linked by the bridging oxygen atom of the hydroxo ligand and the oxygen atom of the deprotonated isopropanol group of Hpdta^5?. The coordination spheres of germanium and lanthanum each contains one nitrogen atom and two carboxyl oxygen atoms of the four acetate arms of the heptadentate Hpdta^5? ligand. The Ge coordination polyhedron is completed to a distorted octahedron by the oxygen atom of the terminal hydroxo group, and the lanthanum coordination polyhedron is completed to a nine-vertex polyhedron by the oxygen atoms of four water molecules. In crystal, the complex molecules and crystal water molecules are combined by a system of hydrogen bonds.
