Kinetic studies of complexation reactions of water-soluble hydrazones with nickel(II) and palladium(II) ions

The kinetics of complexation reactions of five water-soluble heterocyclic hydrazones with nickel(II) and palladium(II) ions have been investigated by stopped-flow spectrophotometry. Rates of complexations with nickel(II) and palladium(II) in the absence of chloride ion were found to be proportional to the first order of the ligand and metal ion concentrations and to the inverse first order of the hydrogen ion concentration except for the complexation of alpha-(2-benzimidazolyl)-alpha-(5-nitro-2-pyridyl)hydrazono-3-toluenesulfonic acid with palladium(II). Rates of complexation with palladium(II) in the presence of chloride ion were best described by a two-term expression, both terms being first order in the palladium ion and ligand concentrations and inverse first order in the hydrogen ion concentration. The first term has zero dependence of the chloride ion concentration, whereas the second is first order with respect to the chloride ion concentration. The rate constant for each complexation reaction was determined. The complexation of the hydrazones with nickel(II) was estimated to go according to an Eigen mechanism and that with palladium (II) according to the associative mechanism.     

Kinetics and mechanism of palladium (II) chloride catalyzed oxidation of allyl alcohol by potassium hexacyanoferrate (III)

A kinetic study of the oxidation of allyl alcohol by potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) in the presence of palladium (II) chloride is reported. The reaction was observed by measuring the disappearance of the potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) spectrophotometrically. The reaction is first order with respect to allyl alcohol and palladium (II) chloride, inverse second order with respect to [Cl^?], and zero order with respect to potassium hexacyanoferrate (III). The rate is found to increase linearly with hydroxyl ion concentration.     

Synthesis and study of trinuclear Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes with 2-mercaptonicotinic acid: Crystal and molecular structure of [Pd3(mercaptonicotinic acid)3Cl3]

Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes of 2-mercaptonicotinic acid of formulae [M₃(mercaptonicotinic acid)₃Cl₃] were synthesized and characterized by the usual spectroscopic techniques including mass spectrometry. The crystal structure was obtained for the palladium complex. The molecule has a ternary symmetry, and mercaptonicotinic acid coordinates in a bidentate (N,S) mode to each palladium ion. The sulfur atom acts as a bridge between two palladium atoms. The fourth coordination site in the plane square geometry of the Pd(II) is occupied by a chloride ion. Identical molecular structure is proposed for the platinum compound in agreement with the spectroscopic and theoretical results.     

Extraction of palladium(II) from hydrochloric acid solutions by (RS)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-pentan-3-ol

The extraction properties of (RS)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-pentan-3-ol (with chloroform as a diluent) with respect to palladium(II) were studied. Palladium(II) was found to be efficiently extracted by the reagent from 0.1–6 M HCl solutions by the coordination mechanism. The rate of palladium(II) recovery depends on the hydrochloric acid and chloride ion concentrations in the aqueous phase. Conditions for the selective separation of palladium(II) and copper(II) from nickel(II), cobalt(II), and iron(III) were determined.     

Flow-Injection Study and Analytical Applications of the Reactions of Palladium(II) and Platinum(IV) with Tin(II) Chloride in Hydrochloric Acid Solutions

The interaction of palladium(II) and platinum(II) with tin(II) chloride in hydrochloric acid solutions was studied by flow-injection (FI) spectrophotometry. It was found using kinetic measurements in the stopped flow mode that the composition of detected products and the rate of their formation depend on the concentrations of tin(II) and chloride ions in the reaction zone and on the acidity of the solution. Optimal FI conditions were found, and the selectivity of interaction of palladium(II) with tin(II) chloride was estimated for the detection of the signal at 407 nm (yellow form) and 646 nm (green form). It was demonstrated that the reaction of the formation of yellow platinum(IV) complexes is slower than that for palladium(II), especially at rather low concentrations of hydrochloric acid in the reaction flow. Based on the detection of green complexes of palladium(II) with tin(II) chloride, a flow injection method was proposed for the selective spectrophotometric determination of palladium(II) in the presence of other platinum-group metals. The height of the recorded peak is directly proportional to the concentration of palladium(II) in the injected solution in the range of 0.028–0.300 mM. The method was used for the analysis of pharmaceuticals and industrial catalysts.     

Extraction mechanism for palladium(II) from hydrochloric acid solution with 2-dodecylthiomethylpyridine using a stirred transfer cell.

2-Dodecylthiomethylpyridine (DTP) was newly synthesized to study its extraction properties for precious metals. DTP was a selective extractant for palladium(II) and gold(III) over base metals. The loading test for palladium(II) showed that one palladium ion reacted with one molecule of DTP. The extraction rate of palladium with DTP was measured using a Lewis-type transfer cell at 303 K. The extraction reaction of palladium with DTP has been found to be a first order reaction with respect to palladium ion, DTP, and hydrogen ion concentrations. This reaction is inversely proportional to chloride ion concentration. The rate-determining step was the parallel reactions of DTP with PdCl3(-) and PdCl4(2-) in the aqueous phase.     

Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of bis(2,4,6-tripyridyl 1,3,5-triazine)iron(II) by vanadium(V), periodate and iodate ions in acetate buffers

The kinetics of oxidation of bis(2,4,6-tripyridyl 1,3,5-s-triazine)iron(II) by vanadium(V), periodate and iodate has been studied in acetate buffers by stopped-flow and spectrophotometric methods. The oxidation reaction of bis(2,4,6-tripyridyl 1,3,5-s-triazine)iron(II) by vanadium(V), periodate and iodate follows first order kinetics for the substrate and oxidant. Hydrogen ion has no significant effect on the rate. A generalized mechanism was proposed for these reactions and these reactions follow the rate law: Rate = k [oxidant] [Fe(tptz)₂ ²⁺].     

Citric acid oxidation by vanadium(V) in sulfuric acid medium: Kinetic and mechanistic study

The citric acid oxidation by vanadium(V) in sulfuric acid medium at 303 K is reported. The reaction rate was determined spectrophotometrically by monitoring the formation of vanadium(IV) at 760 nm. The oxidation showed a first‐order dependence with respect to vanadium(V) concentration and fractional order with respect to citric acid concentrations, with no control and with constant ionic strength. The reaction is also first order with respect to sulfuric acid concentration with no control and of fractional order at constant ionic strength. The reaction rate is enhanced by an increase of ionic strength and increased by a decrease of the dielectric constant. The activation parameters were calculated based on the rate constants determined in the 293 to 313 K interval. The proposed oxidation mechanisms and the derived rate laws are consistent with the experimental rate laws. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 32: 566–572, 2000     

A coordinatively unsaturated,polymer-bound palladium(0) complex. Synthesis and catalytic activities

A coordinatively unsaturated palladium(0) complex was prepared by the reduction of a polymer-bound palladium(II) chloride complex, which was prepared by the reaction of poly-4-diphenylphosphinomethylstyrene with palladium chloride, with hydrazine in ethanol in the presence of triphenylphosphine. Catalytic activities of the polymerbound palladium(0) complex were examined for three representative types of palladium(0)-induced reactions involving oxidative addition of halides to the metal: (i) vinylic hydrogen substitutions with aryl halides, (ii) acetylenic hydrogen substitutions with aryl halides, (iii) vinylic halogen substitutions with Grignard reagents. Use of the catalyst resulted in formation of corresponding products in good yields. The catalytic activity is comparable to that of analogous homogeneous catalysts, yet is not remarkably lowered on being recycled.     

Flow injection analysis for oxidation state speciation of vanadium(IV) and vanadium(V) in natural water.

A sensitive and simultaneous spectrophotometric flow injection method for the determination of vanadium(IV) and vanadium(V) is proposed. The method is based on the effect of ligands such as 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine (TPTZ) and diphosphate on the conditional redox potential of iron(III)/iron(II) system. A four-channel flow system is assembled. In this flow system, diluted hydrochloric acid (1.0 x 10(-2) mol dm(-3)) as a carrier for standard/sample, acetate buffer (pH 5.5) as a carrier for diphosphate solution, an equimolar mixed solution of iron(III) and iron(II) and a TPTZ solution are delivered, so that the baseline absorbance can be established by forming a constant amount of iron(II)-TPTZ complex (lambda(max) = 593 nm). Vanadium(IV) and/or vanadium(V) (400 microL) and diphosphate (200 microL) solutions are simultaneously introduced into the flow system; in this system the diphosphate solution passes through a delay coil. The potential of the iron(III)/iron(II) system increases in the presence of TPTZ, and therefore vanadium(IV) is easily oxidized by iron(III) to vanadium(V) to produce an iron(II)-TPTZ complex (a positive peak for vanadium(IV) appears). On the other hand, the potential of the redox system decreases in the presence of diphosphate, so that vanadium(V) can be easily reduced by iron(II) to vanadium(IV). In this case, the amount of iron(II) decreases according to the amount of vanadium(V). As a result, the produced iron(II)-TPTZ complex decreases (a negative peak for vanadium(V) appears). In this manner, two peaks for vanadium(IV) and vanadium(V) can be alternately obtained. The limits of detection (S/N = 3) are 1.98 x 10(-7) and 2.97 x 10(-7) mol dm(-3) for vanadium(IV) and vanadium(V), respectively. The method is applied to the simultaneous determination of vanadium(IV) and vanadium(V) in commercial bottled mineral water samples.     

Rotating disk electrode study of the kinetics of formation of palladium(II) ethylenediaminechloride complexes from palladium(II) bis-ethylenediamine complexes

The kinetics of substitution of chloride ions for ethylendiamine in a bis-ethylenediamine complex of palladium(II) is studied in solutions with pH 0.3–2.0 and the ionic strength of 0.11–1.0 M by measuring the transients of limiting diffusion currents of the electroreduction of palladium(II) ethylenediamine complexes on a rotating disk electrode. The first reaction orders in hydrogen and chloride ions are found at the ionic strength of 1 M (NaClO₄). The activation energy of the homogeneous reaction under study is determined from the temperature dependence of its rate constant. The mechanism of substitution of chloride ions for ethylenediamine is discussed.     

Spectrophotometric determination of vanadium(IV) with nitrilotriacetic acid

A new and convenient spectrophotometric method for the estimation of vanadium(IV) with NTA is described. The minimum ratio of metal ion to ligand, working pH, wavelength for maximum absorbance of the complex ion, and the effect of various cations and anions are described. The complex ion obeys Beer's law in the concentration range 1–32 mmol/liter of the vanadium(IV) ion. It is observed that iron(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), and oxidizing anions such as chromate and nitrite interfere in this determination, whereas managanese(II), chromium(III), iron(III), and anions like nitrate, chloride, bromide, iodide, thiocyanate, sulfate, and sulfite do not have any effect. Excessive amounts of acetate, phosphate, oxalate, tartrate and thiosulfate must also be avoided in this determination. Anions and cations which interfere in the determination of vanadium(IV) by NTA should not be present in the system.     

Mechanism of oxidation of cyclohexanehexol (inositol) by quinquevalent vanadium

The oxidation of inositol by quinquevalent vandadium in acid medium is a first-order reaction both in vanadium (V) and inositol. The stoichiometry of the reaction is consistent with the use of two equivalents of vanadium (V) per mole of inositol with the formation of one mole of inosose. The reaction is catalyzed both by sulfuric and perchloric acid, but the rate is faster in sulfuric acid than in perchloric acid. In 1M–6M perchloric acid solutions the reaction has shown a variable order in H⁺, but in solutions of 2M–5M sulfuric and perchloric acid of constant ionic strength, the rate has a linear dependence on [H⁺]². There is also a linear correlation between the rate and bisulfate ions in sulfuric acid at constant hydrogen ion concentration. The energy of activation is found to be 19 kcal/mole and a negative entropy value of ? 14 e.u. A suitable mechanism, consistent with the kinetics in 2M–5M acid solutions, is suggested and the values of various rate constants are evaluated.     

Reduction of [VO2(ma)2]- and [VO2(ema)2]- by ascorbic acid and glutathione: kinetic studies of pro-drugs for the enhancement of insulin action

To shed light on the role of V(V) complexes as pro-drugs for their V(IV) analogues, the kinetics of the reduction reactions of [VO2(ma)2]- or [VO2(ema)2]- (Hma = maltol, Hema = ethylmaltol), with ascorbic acid or glutathione, have been studied in aqueous solution by spectrophotometric and magnetic resonance methods. EPR and 51V NMR studies suggested that the vanadium(V) in each complex was reduced to vanadium(IV) during the reactions. All the reactions studied showed first-order kinetics when the concentration of ascorbic acid or glutathione was in large excess and the observed first-order rate constants have a linear relationship with the concentrations of reductant (ascorbic acid or glutathione). Potentiometric results revealed that the most important species in the neutral pH range is [VO2(L)2]- for the V(V) system where L is either ma- or ema-. An acid dependence mechanism was proposed from kinetic studies with varying pH and varying maltol concentration. The good fits of the second order rate constant versus pH or the total concentration of maltol, and the good agreement of the constants obtained between fittings, strongly supported the mechanism. Under the same conditions, the reaction rate of [VO2(ma)2]- with glutathione is about 2000 times slower than that of [VO2(ma)2]- with ascorbic acid, but an acid dependence mechanism can also be used to explain the results for the reduction with glutathione. Replacing the methyl group in maltol with an ethyl group has little influence on the reduction rate with ascorbic acid, and the kinetics are the same no matter whether [VO2(ma)2]- or [VO2(ema)2]- is reduced.     

Hydrolysis of the palladium(II) ion in a sodium chloride medium

Summary The hydrolysis of the palladium(II) ion in a sodium chloride medium was studied by the e.m.f. method at 25 °C. The data show that the extent of the palladium hydrolysis depends upon the concentration of both palladium and sodium chloride medium. Thus, at a definite pH, the extent of the hydrolysis increases with increasing concentration of palladium, but decreases with increasing concentration of sodium chloride. The stability constants of the complexes obtained, PdOH⁺ and Pd⁴(OH) ₄ ⁴⁺ , also differ slightly depending upon the concentraton of sodium chloride. The observed medium effect is in agreement with the linear free energy relationship proposed for the metal ion hydrolysis.     

Elimination of the interferences of anions in the kinetic spectrophotometric determination of vanadium (V) solution

Accurate determination of vanadium (V) in industrial waste water is of great importance in environmental, biological and toxicological studies. Most of kinetic spectrophotometric methods based on the catalytic effect of vanadium (V), when applied to real samples for determination of trace levels of vanadium (V) lack the satisfactory sensitivity and selectivity. This may be attributed to the serious interferences of various anions which are common pollutants in industrial waste water. The oxidation of gallic acid by ammonium persulphate, catalysed by vanadium (V) was chosen for our study. The effect of the serious interferences of various anions such as chloride, bromate, bromide, chromate, iodide, iodate, molybdate, carbonate and sulphate on the net absorbance given by 4 microg l(-1) of vanadium (V) solution were studied. The minimum concentrations of citric acid, EDTA, ascorbic acid and oxalic acid as leveling off agents required to level off interfering effects due to the aforementioned anions in the kinetic determination of vanadium (V) were 50, 70, 80 and 120 microg ml(-1), respectively. In the presence of optimum concentrations of effective leveling off agents, the dynamic range can be extended and sensitivity increased as compared with the proposed method without levelling off agents. The proposed method is a rapid, sensitive and selective method for the determination of ultra trace amounts of vanadium (V) in real samples with satisfactory results.     

Palladium(II) Extraction by Pyridinecarboxylic Acid Esters

The commercial extractant Acorga CLX-50 and model individual di-2-ethylhexyl pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate and 2-ethylhexyl pyridine-3-carboxylate in toluene were used for palladium(II) extraction from aqueous HCl solutions. The studies of extraction rate and equilibrium were carried out in systems containing palladium(II) ions in 3.0, 0.1, and 0.1M HCl in the presence of 0.5M sodium chloride and in 0.1M HCl in the presence of 0.1–6.0M lithium chloride and in 0.1M HCl in the presence 0.1–3.5M sodium nitrate. The examined extractants can efficiently extract palladium(II) from aqueous hydrochloric acid and nitrate solutions. The extraction is slow and equilibrium is obtained after 2 hours. The best extraction of palladium(II) is observed from 0.1M HCl solution in the presence of 3.5M sodium nitrate. A spontaneous transfer of palladium(II) to the toluene phase without any phase mixing is also observed.     

Ion exchange extraction of platinum(IV) and palladium(II) from hydrochloric acid solutions

Sorption concentration of platinum(II, IV) and palladium(II) from freshly prepared and aged two-yearold hydrochloric acid solutions by a series of anion exchangers with different functional groups and of different physical structure of Purolite and CYBBER grades was studied. The high sorption ability of the ion exchangers in relation to the extracted chlorocomplexes of noble metals is shown. It was demonstrated that palladium(II) from all tested ion exchangers can be completely desorbed with thiourea solutions acidified with hydrochloric acid, while complete desorption of platinum is achieved only from Purolite S 985 anion exchanger of the complexforming type and Purolite A 111 weak base anion exchanger.
