Photoredox properties of Kojic acid and its derivatives complexed to Iron(III)

Summary Iron(III) complexes of the formcis-[Fe(SB(X - K)] in whichSB ^2– are open-chain tetradentateSchiff base N₂O₂-ligands ofacacen,benacen orsalen type, andX - K ^– are bidentate anions of kojic acid (5-hydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-4H-pyran-4-one) or other -pyranones undergo photoredox transformations when being irradiated in methanol into intraligand orLMCT bands. The quantum yields of the photoredox reactions depend on the peripheral constitution of the N₂O₂ ligands, the substituentsA andB of the ligandsX - K ^–, and the wavelength of irradiation _irr. The proposed mechanism involves the population of photoredox reactiveLMCT states by photophysical deactivation steps, primary photoredox formation ofX - K radicals and Fe(II), and subsequent dark redox processes giving back the anionsX - K ^– and the final products Fe(II) and formaldehyde formed in the molar ratio 2:1.

Die Quantenausbeuten der Reaktionen hängen von der Konstitution der N₂O₂-Liganden, den SubstituentenA undB und dem LigandenX - K ^– sowie der Anregungswellenlänge _irr ab.

Indium(III) complexes with some salicylidene aromaticSchiff bases

In(III) complexes with salicylidene aromaticSchiff bases have been prepared. The nature of the complexes has been studied by microanalysis of the solid complexes, conductometric titration, uv and ir spectrophotometric measurements. The complexes are of the type 11 and 21 [Ligand: In(III)] depending upon theSchiff base. The tendency of the salicylideneSchiff base molecule towards complex formation with In(III) is found to depend largely on the strength of the intramolecular hydrogen bond established between the aldehydic OH group and C=N. Furthermore, it is concluded that theseSchiff bases cordinate to In(III) as tri- or bidentate ligands depending upon the molecular structure of theSchiff base (not as monodentate ligand as previously described). The high molar absorbance of the 12 In(III) complex with salicylidene-o-hydroxyaniline I (17,800 mol^–1 cm²) can be applied for the micro determination of small amounts of Indium as low as 0.57 g/ml solution.

Schiff-base derivatives of molybdenum carbonyl

Summary Reactions of five Schiff bases (SB),viz.,N,N-ethylenebis(benzalideneimine) (SB¹),N,N-ethylenebis(p-anisylideneimine) (SB²),N,N-ethylenebis(methylphenylketimine) (SB³),N,N-ethylenebis(diphenylketimine) (SB⁴) andN,N-ethylenebis (salicylideneimine) (SB⁵) with molybdenum hexacarbonyl have been studied.

Halogen-oxidation and nitrosylation ofcis-[(SB)Mo(CO)₄] have also been studied.     

Hydrogen peroxide yields in methanol-water mixtures gamma-irradiated at room temperature and 77 K

Hydrogen peroxide yields in air-saturated methanol-water mixtures with methanol: water volume ratios varying from 199 to 1000, produced by⁶⁰Co gamma-irradiation boith at room temperature and at 77 K have been determined. At room temperature, G(H₂O₂) values are almost constant over the entire range of methanol: water ratios. However, for irradiations at 77 K, G(H₂O₂) values increase with increasing methanol concentration up to the volume ratio of 982.     

Polymeric membrane sodium-selective electrodes based on calix[4]arene ionophores

Six kinds of tetra alkylester type calix[4]arene derivatives, (R₁=R₂=CH₃1, C₂H₅2, C₃H₇3,n-C₄H₉4,t-C₄H₉5,n-C₁₀H₂₁6), a diethyl-didecyl mixed ester type (R₁=C₂H₅, R₂ =C₁₀H₂₁7), and three kinds of lower rim bridged types (R₁=C₂H₅, R₂–R₂=(CH₂)₁₀8, (CH₂)₁₂9, (CH₂)₂(OCH₂CH₂)₃10) were characterized by electrochemical measurement to elucidate the effect of the length of the alkyl group of alkoxycarbonyl substituents on Na⁺ selectivity. To obtain excellent Na⁺ selective ionophores, introduction of short chain alkyl groups rather than long chain ones, such as a decyl group, and maintenance of sufficient solubility of the calix[4]arene derivatives in the membrane solvent are required concurrently. Among the calix[4]arenes tested, 25,26,27,28-tetrakis[(ethoxycarbonyl)methoxy]-p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene2, and the diethyl-didecyl mixed ester type derivative7 are the best ionophores for a Na⁺ selective electrode. On the other hand, sodium selectivity of the bridged type derivative9 is comparable or even superior to that of the known bis(12-crown-4).This paper is dedicated to the commemorative issue on the 50th anniversary of calixarenes.
