Application of the Bjerrum Association Model to Electrolyte Solutions. II. Enthalpies of Dilution in Water and Nonaqueous Solvents

The association theory based on the Bjerrum model, which had been developed for the treatment of apparent and partial molar volumes of electrolyte solutions, is extended to apparent molar relative enthalpies L _2,. Experimental enthalpies of dilution for tetrabutylammonium bromide in acetonitrile, propylene carbonate, and -butyrolactone and for lithium perchlorate and sodium thiocyanate in acetonitrile were obtained and analyzed with this model. Literature data for various electrolytes in water, acetonitrile, and n-propanol were also reanalyzed. Through the Bjerrum equations, enthalpies of dilution can be extrapolated to infinite dilution and reliable L _2, obtained for associated electrolytes. The model can be used to estimate the association constant K _A of the electrolyte and these K _A are compared with literature values (generally obtained from conductivity). Considering the difference in the concentration ranges investigated in L _2, and measurements, K _A extracted from L _2, generally fall within an expected range of deviation from the ones obtained by conductivity, provided that no specific interactions are present in solution.     

Lu(Et2dtc)3(phen)的生成反应焓变、摩尔热容和恒容燃烧能测定

A ternary solid complex Lu(Et₂dtc)₃(phen) has been obtained from the reaction of hydrated lutetium chloride with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (NaEt₂dtc), and 1,10-phenanthroline (o-phen·H₂O) in absolute ethanol. IR spectrum of the complex indicates that Lu³⁺ binds with sulfur atom in the Na(Et₂dtc)₃ and nitrogen atom in the o-phen. The enthalpy change of liquid-phase reaction of formation of the complex, Δ_rH_m^Ө (l), was determined to be (-32.821 ± 0.147 ) kJ·mol^-1 at 298.15 K by an RD-496 Ⅲ type heat conduction microcalormeter. The enthalpy change of the solid-phase reaction of formation of the complex, Δ_rH_m^Ө (s), was calculated to be (104.160 ± 0.168) kJ · mol^-1 on the basis of an appropriate thermochemistry cycle. The thermodynamics of liquid-phase reaction of formation of the complex was investigated by changing the temperature of liquid-phase reaction. Fundamental parameters, such as the activation enthalpy (ΔH_≠^Ө), the activation entropy (ΔS_≠^Ө), the activation free energy (ΔG_≠^Ө), the apparent reaction rate constant (k), the apparent activation energy (E), the pre-exponential constant (A) and the reaction order (n), were obtained by combination the reaction thermodynamic and kinetic equations with the data of thermokinetic experiments. The molar heat capacity of the complex, c_m, was determined to be (82.23 ± 1.47) J·mol^-1·K^-1 by the same microcalormeter. The constant-volume combustion energy of the complex, Δ_cU, was determined as (-17 898.228 ± 8.59) kJ·mol^-1 by an RBC-Ⅱtype rotating-bomb calorimeter at 298.15 K. Its standard enthalpy of combustion, Δ_cH_m^Ө, and standard enthalpy of formation, Δ_fH_m^Ө, were calculated to be (-17 917.43 ± 8.11) kJ·mol^-1 and (-859.95 ±10.12) kJ·mol^-1, respectively.

Chain entanglement,mechanical properties and drawability of poly(lactide)

The observed brittle fracture behavior of amorphous polylactides seems to be contradicted by the low value ofC =2 determined for poly(L-lactide) by Flory and coworkers. Such very flexible polymer chains deform by shear yielding, and fracture in a ductile manner. In this study,C was estimated in a number of ways, resulting in much higher values ofC =11.7 andC =9.1 for poly(L-lactide) and L- and D-lactide copolymers, respectively. These high values ofC and the low entanglement density account for the brittle fracture behavior of amorphous poly(lactide), as well as for the maximum attainable draw ratios of poly(L-lactide) networks and melt spun fibers. Bulk polymerized poly(L-lactide) networks, where crystallization during polymerization impedes severe entangling, could be hot-drawn most effectively to draw ratios of 8–16, resulting in very strong materials with tensile strengths of 550–805 MPa. By comparison, amorphous, non-crystallizable L/D lactide networks, which do not crystallize during polymerization, could be drawn less, to =7. These materials with strengths up to 460 MPa could, nevertheless, be oriented much more effectively than linear, amorphous L/D lactide copolymers.

On the basis of detailed comparison of the theoretical and experimental spectra an assignment of the fine structure of the spectra has been proposed.     

An infrared and raman spectroscopic investigation of copper(II) tetracyanonickelate complexes ofα-,β- andγ-picoline

Copper(II) dipicoline tetracyanonickelate complexes, CuL₂Ni(CN)₄ (L=,- or-picoline), have been prepared for the first time and their infrared and Raman spectra are reported. Their structure consists of polymeric layers of {Cu-Ni(CN)₄} with picoline molecules bound directly to the copper. It is proposed that the Cu-NC bonds are in two nonequivalent pairs in trans positions. Low temperature (83K) IR spectra have also been recorded and it is noted that the Ni(CN)₄ group frequencies increase with decreasing temperature while the picoline frequencies are insensitive to temperature.     

Formation and Characterization of Large (Ar) n , (N2) n , and Mixed (Ar) n (N2) m van der Waals Clusters Produced by Supersonic Expansion

This paper reports the formation and characterization of large (Ar) _n , (N₂) _n , and mixed binary (Ar) _n (N₂) _m van der Waals clusters produced at room temperature in the process of supersonic expansion. The average cluster size is determined by the buffer gas induced beam-broadening technique. For both Ar and N₂ clusters, power variations of the average cluster size with the gas stagnation pressure P ₀ give size scaling as . The average cluster sizes of argon vary from 2950 to more than 30900 atoms per cluster with the argon gas stagnation pressures ranging from 4 to 14 bars, and of nitrogen vary from 600 to more than 10400 molecules per cluster with the nitrogen gas stagnation pressures ranging from 8 to 38 bars. The mixed binary (Ar) _n (N₂) _m cluster is produced by supersonic expansion of an Ar–N₂ mixture. The large mixed binary (Ar) _n (N₂) _m clusters with the average sizes n + m between 1000 and 16000 are obtained. In coexpansion of Ar–N₂ mixture, we find that the argon concentration becomes higher in the beam than before the expansion. This finding is discussed and may be helpful for further insight into the phenomenon of clustering.

Salt Effects on Volumetric Properties of Some n-Alkoxyethanols (C1Em, m = 1, 2, and 3) in Aqueous Solutions at 298.15 K

Accurate density measurements over the whole composition range were made at a temperature of 298.15 K under ambient pressure for the mixtures of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (2-methoxyethanol, C₃H₇O₂; C₁E₁), or diethylene glycol monomethyl ether (2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethanol, C₅H₁₂O₃; C₁E₂), or triethylene glycol monomethyl ether [2-{2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy}ethanol, C₇H₁₆O₄; C₁E₃) in aqueous salt solutions having a common anion with a view to examining the cationic effect on the volumetric properties. To gain insight into the mixing behavior, results of the density measurements were used to estimate excess molar volumes, V_m^E, apparent molar volumes, V_{, i}, partial molar volumes, , excess partial molar volumes, V_m,i^E, and their limiting values at infinite dilution, V_{, i}, V_m,i, and V_m,i^E,, respectively. Aqueous solutions of the chlorides of lithium, sodium, potassium, and calcium in a concentration range to ca. 1 mol-kg^–1 were chosen for investigation as this concentration is used most frequently in applied chemistry. All mixtures except that containing lithium chloride show a decrease in the magnitude of V_m^E with the addition of a salt when compared to salt-free mixtures. Comparison of the derived volumes at infinite dilution suggested modification of the water structure as well as an electrostatic interaction between the ionic species and an alkoxyethanol molecule.

Thermodynamic and spectroscopic study of the interaction of Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) and Ca(II) ions with 2-amino-N-(2-oxo-2-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl amino)ethyl)acetamide,a pseudo-mimic of human serum albumin

The protonation equilibria of 2-amino-N-(2-oxo-2-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl amino)ethyl)acetamide ([H₂(556)–N]) and the complexation of this ligand with Cu(II) Ca(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II) have been studied by glass electrode potentiometry and UV–visible spectrophotometry. From pH ∼2.00–11.00, five models for Cu(II) with the following complexes; MLH, ML, MLH₋₁, MLH₋₂ and MLH₋₃ were generated and observed to describe the experimental data equally well as far as the statistical criteria were concerned. The MLH₋₂ complex predominates at physiological pH in all five models, while the MLH₋₁ complex species exists only at low concentration in two models. The coordination in the MLH₋₂ complex suggested the involvement of one amino, two deprotonated peptides and one pyridyl nitrogen atoms. Molecular mechanics (MM) calculations confirmed the MLH₋₂ complex as the most stable species. Speciation calculations, using a blood plasma model, predicted that the Cu(II)–[H₂(556)–N] complex is able to mobilize Cu(II). Octanol/water partition of CuLH₋₂ showed that 30% of the complex went into the octanol phase, hence promoting percutaneous absorption of copper. The complex is a poor mimic of native copper–zinc superoxide dismutase.

The implication of the findings are discussed.     

The products of the photolysis of 2-(4-alkyI(or phenyl)piperazino)-3-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones,their structures and subsequent thermal transformations

Photolysis of 2-(4-alkyI(phenyl)piperazino)-3-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones affords 2-alkyl (phenyl)-1,2,3,4,12,12a-hexahydronaphtho[2,34,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine-6,11-diols which recyclize at elevated temperatures to yield 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-13-alkyl(phenyl)-3,1-(iminoethano) benzo[g]quinoxaline-5,10-diols. The latter are oxidated with atmospheric oxygen to the corresponding diones. On the basis of deuterium exchange data a mechanism for the recyclization is proposed.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 944–949, May, 1993.     

Argon matrix effect on the geometry and infrared spectrum of H2CMH2 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf): A theoretical study

Within the framework of polarizable continuum model with integral equation formalism (IEF-PCM), an argon matrix effect on the geometry and infrared frequencies of the agostic H₂CMH₂ (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) methylidene complexes was investigated at B3LYP level of theory with the 6-311++G(3df,3pd) basis set for C, H, and Ti atoms and Stuttgart/Dresden ECPs MWB28 and MWB60 for the Zr and Hf atoms. At the B3LYP/IEF-PCM level of theory, H₂CTiH₂ was optimized to an energy minimum having a pyramidal structure. The calculated dipole moment of this structure is 3.06 D. The B3LYP/IEF-PCM simulations gave the three complexes’ agostic angle ∠HCM (°), distance r(H?M) (Å), and CM bond length r(CM) (Å) as follows: ∠HCTi = 87.4, r(H?Ti) = 2.079, r(CTi) = 1.803; ∠HCZr = 89.3, r(H?Zr) = 2.243, r(CZr) = 1.956; ∠HCHf = 94.7, r(H?Hf) = 2.343, r(CHf) = 1.972. As a comparison, the B3LYP simulations gave the values as follows: ∠HCTi = 91.5, r(H?Ti) = 2.150, r(CTi) = 1.811; ∠HCZr = 92.9, r(H?Zr) = 2.299, r(CZr) = 1.955; ∠HCHf = 95.6, r(H?Hf) = 2.352, r(CHf) = 1.967. As far as the MH₂ symmetric and asymmetric stretching and CH₂ wagging frequencies are concerned, the IEF-PCM calculated values are in better agreement with the experimental argon matrix ones than those calculated based on a gas phase model.     

New Sn(IV) and Ti(IV) bis(trimethylsilyl)amides in d,l-lactide polymerization, SEM characterization of polymers

Ring-opening polymerization of d,l-lactide initiated with new chlorotris(bis(trimethylsilyl) amido) tin(IV), tetrakis(bis(trimethylsilyl)amido) tin(IV) and titanium(IV) was investigated. New complexes reveal practically quantitative conversion degrees and produced polymers with higher molecular weight with respect to reference alkoxo-species.The X-ray crystal structure of chlorotris(bis(trimethylsilyl)amido) tin (IV) was investigated. Axial enantiomerism of [SnCl{N(SiMe₃)₂}₃] molecules in solution was studied by high-field dynamic NMR, the value of Gibbs activation energy ΔG^‡ = 59.5 kJ/mol.Field emission SEM investigation of bulk polymer samples and thin films on conductive Al foil revealed a stratified fibrous textures in the bulk polymers, as well as nanoscaled topographical features due to coils and entanglements of individual macromolecules in thin films.     

Solid-State Structure of Binuclear Transition Metal Bisphosphine Complexes. Rotation-rate-dependent MAS Spectra of Dipolar and Scalar Coupled Four-Spin Systems of Dimeric Palladium(I) Complexes

Summary. Straightforward ³¹P MAS investigations were carried out in the solid state on a series of [Pd₂X₂(dppm)₂] (X=Cl, Br, I) complexes in order to study the effects that ring distortion, conformations, and crystal packing have on the solid-state spectra of these molecules and also to get experimental values for certain scalar couplings (e.g. two-bond trans P–Pd–P) normally not available from solution-state spectra.The phosphorus nuclei in these structures form a tightly dipolar coupled four-spin system which cannot be treated by the averaged Hamiltonian theory. The presence of strong homonuclear dipolar couplings, especially under the so called rotational resonance conditions, was expected to add to the complexity of the spectra. It turned out that the molecules are asymmetric in solid state but the rotation-rate dependence of the spectra is simpler than expected. Whereas trans spin-pairs with small isotropic chemical shift differences show a J-recouping phenomenon at modest MAS frequencies, the strongly dipolar coupled cis pairs (outside of the real rotational resonance conditions) do not have a characteristic effect in the rotation range studied or the effect is beyond the spectral resolution (<250Hz). At higher MAS frequencies under the assumption of inhomogeneous behaviour reliable values of the trans J-couplings are available from the spectra.
