Ab initio Investigation on Unhydrated Ion-associated Species Between Na+, Li+, Mg2+ and SO2-4 Ions

计算并讨论了Na+,Li+和Mg2+3种离子与SO2-4离子形成离子缔合物的结构以及阳离子的结合对v1-SO2-4频率的影响.结果表明,在缔合物结构方面,阳离子数目越少,离子间斥力越小,越容易形成阳离子与硫酸根间距离更短、结合更紧密的双齿缔合结构;而当阳离子数目增加时,特别是当具有2个正电荷的Mg2+离子数目较多时,离子间的斥力使多离子团簇不稳定,易形成阳离子与硫酸根间距离更长的单齿缔合结构.有2种阳离子作用可影响v1 -SO2-4频率,一种是极化作用,可使v1-SO2-4频率红移;另一种是成键作用,可使v1 -SO2-4频率蓝移.当金属离子数目≤2时,阳离子的极化作用占主导地位,第一个阳离子能使v1-SO2-4频率发生红移,而当阳离子数目增多时,不同方向结合的其它阳离子可以削弱第一个阳离子的极化作用,因此导致多离子团簇中v1-SO2-4频率红移的减小.当阳离子数目≥3时,极化作用影响减小,成键作用占据主导地位,导致v1 -SO2-4频率更大蓝移的单齿缔合结构取代双齿结构,并使多离子团簇中的v1-SO2-4频率继续发生蓝移.

拉曼光谱法研究Na+, Mg2+//SO42-, Cl-, H2O四元体系中SO42-离子缔合结构特征及其变化规律

复杂水盐体系存在稳态和介稳固液相平衡以及复杂的成盐规律。为了解固液平衡状态下液相的结构特征,本文采用拉曼光谱技术并结合高斯-洛伦兹去卷积分峰拟合程序对Na⁺, Mg²⁺//SO₄^2-, Cl^-, H₂O四元体系及其二元和三元子体系中ν₁-SO₄^2-的离子缔合结构特征进行了分析。研究结果表明:SO₄^2-在Na₂SO₄-H₂O体系存在自由态SO₄^2-和SO₄^2-离子簇两种结构,在MgSO₄-H₂O, MgSO₄-MgCl₂-H₂O及Na⁺, Mg²⁺//SO₄^2-, Cl^-, H₂O等含镁体系中,还有Mg²⁺-H₂O-SO₄^2-和Mg²⁺-OSO₃^2-两种缔合结构。在二元和三元体系中ν₁-SO₄^2-的离子缔合结构以自由态SO₄^2-为主,随着SO₄^2-离子总浓度的变化,上述四种结构所占比例会发生规律性变化。Na⁺, Mg²⁺//SO₄^2-, Cl^-, H₂O四元体系在NaCl减少及等温蒸发过程中,自由态SO₄^2-结构比例逐步降低, Mg²⁺和SO₄^2-相结合形成Mg²⁺-H₂O-SO₄^2-或Mg²⁺-OSO₃^2-结构的机会增多,在复盐区还会形成SO₄^2-离子簇结构。由此判断溶液结构的适应性变化是导致介稳现象的重要原因。进一步的相关分析表明:SO₄^2-的浓度和耶涅克指数J与ν₁-SO₄^2-峰的峰强度和峰面积存在正相关关系, Mg²⁺浓度是影响ν₁-SO₄^2-峰中四种缔合结构的比例发生变化的主要因素。     

Structural and dynamic investigations of aqueous clusters of Na+ and K+

Using computer modeling, we have studied Na⁺–24H₂O and K⁺–24H₂O clusters. We propose ion-water interaction potentials. We obtain structural, energy, and dynamic characteristics of the studied clusters. We show different mechanisms for exchange of water molecules surrounding the Na⁺ and K⁺ ions: single-particle in the case of Na⁺, and close to K⁺, along with single-particle exchange, a large percentage of multiparticle cooperative exchange of water molecules. This difference is explained by the different degrees of orientation of the water molecules surrounding these ions, by the presence of a unified deformed network of H bonds in the K⁺ cluster and its absence in the Na⁺ cluster. We propose a negative hydration mechanism for the K⁺ ion.Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences. Institute of Physical Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences.

Influence of K+, Na+ or Ca2+ Ions on the Interaction Between AmB and Saturated Phospholipids by Langmuir Technique

Interaction between amphotericin B(AmB) and cell membrane is influenced by different metal cations. In the presence of K⁺, Na⁺ or Ca²⁺ ions, the surface pressure-area isotherms and the elastic modulus of an amphotericindipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine(AmB-DPPC) mixed monolayer were discussed. And the excess free energy and entropies of mixing were calculated according to the surface pressure-area isotherms. The phase transition of the mixed monolayer needed a higher concentration of AmB in the sequence Na⁺ > pure buffer > K⁺ > Ca²⁺. When the molar fraction of AmB(x_AmB) was 0.5, the molecular interaction changed from attraction to repulsion and the mixed monolayer turned to ordered state from disorder state under the induction of K⁺ or Ca²⁺ ions at all surface pressure in our experiment. At high surface pressure, the disorder of monolayer enhanced in the presence of Na⁺ ions at x_AmB > 0.1. At different molar ratios of AmB, the influences of these metal cations were discrepant. These cations may influence AmB molecules to form pores on the monolayer. It is helpful to understand the reduction of AmB's toxicity as theoretical reference.     

Electrical conductivity of lyotropic phases of dodecylbenzenesulphonates with Li+, Na+, and K+ ions in water

The electrical conductivity of dodecylbenzenesulphonate (DoBS) ionic lyotropic liquid crystal of the systems: LiDoBS (dodecylbenzenesulphonic acid lithium salt)/water, NaDoBS (dodecylbenzenesulphonic acid sodium salt)/water, and KDoBS (dodecylbenzenesulphonic acid potassium salt)/water were investigated by impedance spectroscopy in the frequency range from 0.5 Hz to 0.5 MHz. The electrical conductivity of lyotropic LiDoBS was higher than that of isotropic phase. The electrical conductivity isotropic KDoBS and NaDoBS was higher than the conductivity of lyotropic ones. The temperature dependence of electrical conductivity was investigated in the systems LiDoBS/water and KDoBS/water for different phases. The activation energy of electrical conductivity is lowest for the normal hexagonal phase LiDoBS/water. Such systems based on anionic surfactants are of interest as the electrolyte for the supercapacitors.     

Specific Ion and Concentration Effects in Acetate Solutions with Na+, K+ and Cs+

How salt ions affect solutes and the water beyond the solvation shell is not well understood. Molecular dynamics simulations of alkali-acetate solutions were analysed here in order to examine if, and how, different cations and solute concentrations affect the water structure and the interactions between water and acetates. The results revealed that water structure is perturbed to more than 1 nm away from the acetates and that this effect is more pronounced in physiological than in molar electrolyte concentrations. Analysis of simulations of a soluble protein revealed that the water orientation is perturbed to at least 1.5 nm from the protein structure. Furthermore, modifications to the orientation of water around carboxylate side chains were shown to depend on the local environment on the protein surface, and could extend to well over 1 nm, which may have an effect on protein dynamics during MD simulations in small water boxes.     

Measurement of Solid-liquid Equilibria in Quaternary System Li+, K+//SO42-, B4O72--H2O at 288 K

In order to utilize the brine resources in China, the solid-liquid equilibria in quaternary system Li⁺, K⁺//SO₄^2-, B₄O₇^2--H₂O at 288 K was studied by the isothermal solution equilibrium method. Solubilities and densities of solutions were determined experimentally. According to the experimental data, the equilibrium phase diagrams, density-composition diagram and corresponding water content diagram of the quaternary system were plotted. Double salt KLiSO₄ was found in the reciprocal quaternary system Li⁺, K⁺//SO₄^2-, B₄O₇^2--H₂O at 288 K. The quaternary system has three invariant points, seven univariant curves and five fields of crystallization. The five crystallization regions correspond to Li₂B₄O₇·3H₂O, Li₂SO₄·H₂O, K₂B₄O₇·4H₂O, K₂SO₄ and KLiSO₄, respectively. The crystallization field of salt Li₂B₄O₇·3H₂O is the largest, whereas that of Li₂SO₄·H₂O is the smallest. The experimental results show that Li₂SO₄·H₂O has a strong salting-out effect on other salts.     

Comprehensive study on the solvation of mono- and divalent metal cations: Li+, Na+, K+, Be2+, Mg2+ and Ca2+

Hydration of mono- and divalent metal ions (Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Be(2+), Mg(2+) and Ca(2+)) has been studied using the DFT (B3LYP), second-order M?ller-Plesset (MP2) and CCSD(T) perturbation theory as well as the G3 quantum chemical methods. Double-zeta and triple-zeta basis sets containing both (multiple) polarization and diffuse functions were applied. Total and sequential binding energies are evaluated for all metal-water clusters containing 1-6 water molecules. Total binding energies predicted at lower levels of theory are compared with those from the high level G3 calculations, whereas the sequential binding energies are compared with available experimental values. An increase in the quality of the basis set from double-zeta to triple-zeta has a significant effect on the sequential binding energies, irrespective of the geometries used. Within the same group (I or II), the sequential binding energy predictions at the MP2 and B3LYP vary appreciably. We noticed that, for each addition of a water molecule, the change of the M-O distance in metal-water clusters is higher at the B3LYP than at the MP2 level. The charge of the metal ion decreases monotonically as the number of water molecules increase in the complex.     

CTAB-promoted prussian blue-modified electrode and its cation transport characteristics for K+, Na+, Li+, and NH4+ ions

A Prussian blue (PB) film was deposited on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode by cyclic voltammetry in the presence of the cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The electrode thus formed showed 4-fold enhancements in redox current and charge values in pure KCl electrolyte as well as greater stability than an electrode prepared in the absence of CTAB. This improved performance of a PB+CTAB electrode versus a PB electrode was further demonstrated using SEM, XRD, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. A comparative study was undertaken on the cation transport characteristics of PB and PB+CTAB electrodes for Na+, Li+, and NH4+ ions. We obtained a CV pattern for a CTAB-promoted PB film, which showed ideal Nernstian behavior at all scan rates from 5 to 140 mV s(-1). Conditions for the formation and preservation of these ideal and stable PB films are discussed. Possible mechanisms for the beneficial effects of CTAB are proposed.
