The enthalpies of dilution of aqueous solutions of {Co(en)₃}Cl₃and {Co(tn)₃}Cl₃(where en =  1,2-diaminoethane andtn =  1,3-diaminopropane) have been measured up to m =  1 mol · kg ^− 1at T =  278.15 K and atmospheric pressure with an isoperibol calorimeter by the long-jump method.

Reactions of Schiff bases (H₂apahR) derived from acetophenone and acid hydrazides, triethylamine and [Ru(PPh₃)₃Cl₂] (1:2:1 mole ratio) in methanol provide cyclometallated ruthenium(III) complexes of formula trans-[Ru(apahR)(PPh₃)₂Cl] in 74–81% yields. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, spectroscopic (infrared, electronic and EPR) and electrochemical measurements. X-ray crystal structures of two representative complexes have been determined. In each complex, the metal centre is in distorted octahedral CNOClP₂ coordination sphere assembled by the C,N,O-donor meridionally spanning apahR^2?, the chloride and the two mutually trans-oriented PPh₃ molecules. All the complexes are one-electron paramagnetic (μ_eff. = 1.85–1.98 μ_B) and display rhombic EPR spectra in frozen (120 K) dichloromethane-toluene (1:1) solution. Electronic spectra of the complexes display several absorptions within 470–270 nm due to ligand-to-metal charge transfer and ligand centred transitions. The complexes are redox active and display a Ru(III) → Ru(II) reduction and a Ru(III) → Ru(IV) oxidation in the potential ranges ?0.66 to ?0.70 V and 0.75 to 0.80 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), respectively.

The molar excess Gibbs free energies G^E were obtained with Barker’s method and fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation. The Wilson equation was also used. Deviations between experimental and predicted G^E and H^E, by using group contribution UNIFAC (Gmehling version) model, were evaluated.     

Structural studies of cyclic ureas: 1. Enthalpies of formation of imidazolidin-2-one and N,N′-trimethyleneurea

A thermophysical and thermochemical study has been carried out for crystalline imidazolidin-2-one and N,N′-trimethyleneurea [tetrahydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one]. The thermophysical study was made by differential scanning calorimetry, d.s.c., in the temperature intervals between T = 268 K and their respective melting temperatures. Several solid–solid transitions have been detected in imidazolidin-2-one. The standard (p^° = 0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of formation, at T = 298.15 K, for crystalline imidazolidin-2-one and N,N′-trimethyleneurea [tetrahydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one], were determined using static-bomb combustion calorimetry. The standard molar enthalpies of sublimation, at T = 298.15 K, for the two compounds were derived from the variation of their vapour pressures, measured by the Knudsen effusion method, with the temperature. These two thermochemical parameters yielded the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the two cyclic urea compounds studied in the gaseous phase at T = 298.15 K. These values are discussed in terms of molecular structural contributions and interpreted on the bases of the “benzo-condensed effect” and of the ring strain of imidazolidin-2-one.
