Ionic strength dependence of formation constants, complexation of nitrilotriacetic acid with tungsten(VI) ion

The dependence on ionic strength of protonation of nitrilotriacetic acid and its complexation with W(VI) is reported in sodium perchlorate, sodium nitrate and sodium chloride solutions as background salts. The measurements have been performed at 25°C and various ionic strengths in the range 0.1–1.0 mol dm⁻³, using a combination of potentiometric and spectrophotometric techniques. The overall analysis of the present and the previous data dealing with the determination of stability constants at different ionic strengths allowed us to obtain a general equation, by which a formation constant determined at a fixed ionic strength can be calculated, with a good approximation, at another ionic strength, if 0.1 ≤ ionic strength ≤ 1.0 mol dm⁻³ sodium perchlorate, sodium nitrate or sodium chloride.     

Ionic strength dependence of stability constants,complexation of W(VI) with iminodiacetic acid

The equilibria between tungsten(VI) and iminodiacetic acid (IDA) have been studied in aqueous solution. The stoichiometry and stability constants of the complexes formed are determined from a combination of potentiometric and Uv spectroscopic measurements. All measurements are carried out at 25°C, pH 7.5 and different ionic strengths ranging from (0.1 to 1.0) mol dm⁻³ (NaClO₄). According to these results, tungsten(VI) forms a mononuclear complex with IDA of the type (WO₃L²⁻). By introducing two empirical parameters C and D in the complex-formation reaction between tungsten(VI) and IDA, the dependence of the dissociation and stability constants on ionic strength is described by a modified Debye-Huckel-type equation. Finally, a pattern for the ionic strength dependence is obtained.     

Ionic strength dependence of formation constants-I Protonation constants of organic and inorganic acids

The protonation constants of formic, acetic, benzoic, oxalic, phthalic, maleic, malonic, succinic, dl-malic, dl-tartaric, aminoacetic, citric, nitrilotriacetic, ethylenediaminetetra-acetic, sulphuric and orthophosphoric acids have been determined from pH measurements, in tetraethylammonium iodide solution, at various ionic strengths in the range 0.01-1.0M (for phosphoric and sulphuric acids 0.01-0.5M). For each acid the dependence of the protonation constants on ionic strength was determined and an equation, valid for all the acids studied, to describe this was derived. The use of tetraethyl-ammonium salts as background to avoid ion-pair formation is discussed.     

Ionic strength and pH dependence of binding constants of Am(III)- and Eu(III)-humates

Binding constants of Eu(III)- and Am(III)-complexes with soil-derived humic acid were determined by solvent extraction at various pH and ionic strength. Based on the dependence of binding constants on pH and ionic strength, stabilities of the humate complexes in land water and seawater were estimated. Speciation calculation based on the binding constants indicated that Am(III) could combine with humic substances in natural water system.     

Ionic strength dependence of formation constants-V Protonation constants of some nitrogen-containing ligands at different temperatures and ionic strengths

The protonation constants of 2,2'-bipyridyl, 1,10-phenanthroline, 1,3-diaminopropane, l-histidine and histamine have been determined potentiometrically, in the temperature range 10-40 degrees and at ionic strengths ranging from 0.04 to 1 (potassium chloride). The dependence of the protonation constants on ionic strength is described by a simple general equation. The enthalpy changes for the protonation of the ligands have been calculated from the temperature dependence of the protonation constants.     

An analysis of the complexation between poly(aspartic acid) and poly(ethylene glycol)

The compatibility between poly(aspartic acid) and poly(ethylene glycol) for the formation of an interpolymer complex (IPC) was investigated by dynamic rheology and evaluation of zeta potential values. The homogeneity of the realized IPC was observed by near infrared chemical imagistic (NIR-CI) technique.

Ionic strength dependence of formation constants-XVIII. The hydrolysis of iron(III) in aqueous KNO(3) solutions

The hydrolysis of iron(III) was studied potentiometrically at different ionic strengths in KNO(3) aqueous solutions, at 25 degrees C, to determine the dependence of hydrolysis constants on ionic strength (nitrate media), to check the existence of nitrate-ferric ion interactions, and to confirm the formation of high polymeric species. Under the experimental conditions 0.03 I (KNO(3)) 1M, 0.3 C 12 mM, the species Fe(OH)(2+), Fe(2)(OH)(4+)(2), Fe(OH)(+)(2) and Fe(12)(OH)(2+)(34) were found, and the hydrolysis constants log beta(11) = 2.20, log beta(12) = -2.91, log beta(22) = -5.7, log beta(12,34) = -48.9 (I = 0M) were calculated. The ionic strength dependence of hydrolysis constants is quite close to that found for several protonation and metal complex formation constants reported elsewhere.     

Ionic strength dependence of formation constants. Part II: potentiometric study of the copper(II)-malonate-glycinate system in the range 0.01≤I≤1.0

Summary The ternary copper(II)-malonate-glycinate system has been investigated by potentiometric measurements using a glass electrode, at 37° and at different ionic strengths (0.01I1.0 mol dm^–3), with KNO₃ as background salt. Complex formation between K⁺ and malonate has also been taken into account, and the parameters for the dependence on ionic strength have been obtained for each formation constant. A general equation, valid for all the complexes formed in this system, for the dependence, log K=f(I), is also proposed. The stabilization parameters of the ternary complex are also analyzed as a function of the ionic strength.     

Ionic strength dependence of formation constants. Part 4. Potentiometric study of the system Cu2+-Ni2+-citrate

Summary The ternary Cu²⁺-Ni²⁺-citrate (cit^3–) system was investigated potentiometrically in aqueous solution, at different temperatures, 10t45°C, and ionic strengths, 0.03I0.8 mol dm^–3, using potassium nitrate or tetraethylammonium bromide as background salt. Since the citrate anion forms weak complexes with potassium, the stability constants here reported differ according to whether the potassium association is considered or not. In the presence of both Cu²⁺ and Ni²⁺, the mixed metal species, [CuNi(cit)₂H_–2]^4– is formed with citrate in solution, in addition to the various binary complexes. We have obtained the dependence for all the formation constants on ionic strength and temperature. The previous suggestions concerning a general equation for describing the dependence, log =f(I), are confirmed; from the study of log =f(T) we have obtained the values of thermodynamic parameters. The dependence of H on ionic strength is discussed.

Bis- and tris-(methylphosphonic) acid derivatives of a 14-membered tetraazamacrocycle containing pyridine: synthesis, protonation and complexation studies

Two N-methylphosphonic acid derivatives of a 14-membered tetraazamacrocycle containing pyridine have been synthesized, H(4)L(1) and H(6)L(2). The protonation constants of these compounds and the stability constants of complexes of both ligands with Ni(2+), Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) were determined by potentiometric methods at 298 K and ionic strength 0.10 mol dm(-3) in NMe(4)NO(3). The high overall basicity of both compounds is ascribed to the presence of the phosphonate arms. (1)H and (31)P NMR spectroscopic titrations were performed to elucidate the sequence of protonation, which were complemented by conformational analysis studies. The complexes of these ligands have stability constants of the order of or higher than those formed with ligands having the same macrocyclic backbone but acetate arms. At pH = 7 the highest pM values were found for solutions containing the compound with three acetate groups, followed immediately by those of H(6)L(2), however, as expected, the increasing pH favours the complexes of ligands containing phosphonate groups. The single-crystal structure of Na(2)[Cu(HL(1))]NO(3)x8H(2)O has shown that the coordination geometry around the copper atom is a distorted square pyramid. Three nitrogen atoms of the macrocyclic backbone and one oxygen atom from one methylphosphonate arm define the basal plane, and the apical coordination is accomplished via the nitrogen atom trans to the pyridine ring of the macrocycle. To achieve this geometric arrangement, the macrocycle adopts a folded conformation. This structure seems consistent with Uv-vis-NIR spectroscopy for the Ni(2+) and the Cu(2+) complexes and with the EPR for the latter.

Three Zn(II) complexes of di-2-pyridyl ketone thiosemicarbazone, an octahedral Ni(II) complex of 2-acetylpyridine hexamethyleneiminyl-3-thiosemicarbazone, and a V(V) complex of 2-acetylpyridine morpholyl-3-thiosemicarbazone were prepared and characterized. Crystal structure of Ni(II) and V(V) complexes are reported. The ligand in the nickel complex is found to coordinate in the thione form with a pseudo octahedral geometry and the vanadium(V) complex has trigonal bipyramidal geometry.     

Ionic liquid crystals derived from the protonation of poly(propylene imine) dendrimers with a cholesterol-based carboxylic acid

The liquid crystalline character of salts resulting from the interaction of poly(propylene imine) dendrimers with 3-cholesteryloxycarbonylpropanoic acid has been studied. The supramolecular structure and consequently the observed liquid crystalline phases are dictated by the degree of protonation of primary amino groups as compared with that of tertiary ones, determined by FTIR spectroscopy in the bulk and by NMR spectroscopy in solution. Glass transition temperatures of the materials are about 38°C. At higher temperatures they are transformed to smectic C* phases while a second-order smectic C phase to smectic A phase transition is observed between 90 and 110°C depending on dendrimer generation. At about 150°C the onset of degradation is observed. The influence of the ionic dendrimeric scaffold on the thermotropic properties is discussed.

From analysis of literature data on the protonation of N-donor and N,O-donor ligands at 25 degrees , a simple model has been derived for the dependence of amine and amino-acid protonation constants on the background electrolytes, which takes into account the formation of weak complexes between the protonated forms of the amines (or amino-acids) and the background anions and between the amino-acid carboxylate group and alkali-metal cations.

The complexes obtained were characterized using various spectroscopic studies. The structures of both the complexes were established by single crystal X-ray crystallographic study. We have also explored the catalytic behavior of the complexes in oxidative bromination of phenol red, which is the bio-inspired reaction catalyzed by an enzyme haloperoxidase.
