Binary and ternary complexes involving manganese(II), 2,2’-bipyridine and halide or thiocyanate ions inN,N-dimethylformamide

Ternary complexation involving the manganese(II) ion, 2,2’-bipyridine (bipy), and halide (chloride, bromide) or pseudohalide (thiocyanate) ions has been studied by precise titration calorimetry inN,N -dimethylformamide (DMF) at 298K. All the titration curves are explained well in terms of formation of mononuclear complexes of the type [MnX_m(bipy)_n](^2-m) + (X = CI, Br or SCN), and the formation of [MnCl(bipy)]⁺, [MnCl₂(bipy)], [MnCl(bipy)₂]⁺ and [MnCl₂(bipy)₂] has been established in the chloride system, [MnBr(bipy)]⁺, [MnBr₂(bipy)], [MnBr(bipy)₂]⁺ in the bromide system, and [Mn(NCS)(bipy)]⁺, [Mn(NCS)₂(bipy)], [Mn(NCS)₃(bipy)]^-, [Mn(NCS)(bipy)₂]⁺, and [Mn(NCS)₂(bipy)₂] in the thiocyanate system. The data were analyzed on the basis of the thermodynamic parameters for the binary Mn^lIbipy and Mn^II-X (X = Cl, Br and SCN) systems, the latter being determined in previous work. The formation constants, reaction enthalpies, and entropies of the ternary complexes were extracted. The thermodynamic parameters thus obtained are discussed in comparison with those of the corresponding systems of other transition metal(II) ions.     

Cobalt(II) chloro complexation in N-methylformamide–N, N-dimethylformamide mixtures

Cobalt(II) chloro complexation has been studied by titration calorimetry and spectrophotometry in solvent mixtures of N-methylformamide (NMF) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). It revealed that a series of mononuclear CoCln_n ^(2–n)+ (n=1–4) complexes are formed in the mixtures of NMF mole fraction x _NMF=0.05 and 0.25, and the CoCl⁺, CoCl₃ ^– and CoCl₄ ^2– complexes in the mixture of x _NMF=0.5, and their formation constants, enthalpies and entropies were obtained. As compared with DMF, the complexation is markedly suppressed in the mixtures, as well as in NMF. The decreasing formation constant of CoCl⁺ with the NMF content is mainly ascribed to the decreasing formation entropy. DMF is aprotic and thus less-structured, whereas NMF is protic to form hydrogen- bonded clusters. In DMF-NMF mixtures, solvent clusters in neat NMF are ruptured to yield new clusters involving DMF, the structure of which depends on the solvent composition. The entropy of formation of CoCl⁺ will be discussed in relation to the liquid structure of DMF, NMF and their mixtures.     

Structural peculiarities of particle solvation inN,N-dimethylformamide

Monte Carlo computer simulation of infinitely dilute solutions of Cs⁺ and I⁻ ions and Xe atoms inN,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) was performed. Peculiarities of intermolecular interactions and structural properties of the solutions were investigated. The solvation enthalpies of cations and anions are close, but the energies of the ion-solvent and solventsolvent interactions differ appreciably. The solute particles affect the energy and structural properties of DMF only in spatially localized domains. The second solvation shell of the solute particles was not structurally allocated. Two structurally and energetically differing states of DMF molecules (with normal and anomalous orientation of the dipole moments) exist in solution of Cs⁺ cations. The anomalous orientation of DMF molecules is due to the solvation steric effect, packing, and kinematic factors. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Spectrophotometric study of thiocyanato complexation of cobalt(II) and nickel(II) ions in micellar solutions of a nonionic surfactant triton X-100

Complexation of cobalt(II) and nickel(II) with thiocyanate ions has been studied by precise spectrophotometry in aqueous and micellar solutions of a nonionic surfactant Triton X-100 of varying concentrations (20–100 mmol-dm^–3). With regard to cobalt(II), the formation of [Co(NCS)]⁺, [Co(NCS)₂], and [Co(NCS)₄]^2– was established. The formation constant of [Co(NCS)₄]^2–, is increased with increasing concentration of the surfactant, suggesting that the [Co(NCS)₄]^2– complex is formed in micelles. In contrast, the formation constants of [Co(NCS)]⁺ and [Co(NCS)₂] are remained practically unchanged. On the other hand, with nickel(II), the formation of sole [Ni(NCS)]⁺ and [Ni(NCS)₂] was established in both aqueous and micellar solutions examined, their formation constants being also remained unchanged. Interestingly, no higher complex was confirmed in the nickel(II) system, unlike cobalt(II). The unusual affinity of the [Co(NCS)₄]^2– complex with micelles will be discussed from thermodynamic and structural points of view.     

Water exchange dynamics of manganese(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) ions in aqueous solution

The first row transition metal ions Mn(2+), Co(2+), and Ni(2+) have been studied by classical umbrella sampling molecular dynamics simulations. The water exchange mechanisms, estimates of reaction rates, as well as structural changes during the activation process are discussed. Mn(2+) was found to react via an I(A) mechanism, whereas Co(2+) and Ni(2+) both proceed via I(D). Reaction rate constants are generally higher than those obtained by experiment but the simply constructed metal(II) ion-water potential reproduces the relative order quite well.     

Reaction of cefalexine with manganese(II), cobalt(II), nickel(II), zinc(II), and cadmium(II) ions

The reaction of cefalexine anions (Cpx^?) with Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺ ions in aqueous solution at 20°C and ionic strength 0.1 was studied by pH-metry. In weakly alkaline medium, unstable complexes MCpx⁺ and M(OH)Cpx are formed, in which Cpx^? behaves as a monodentate lidand coordinated through the amino group.     

Novel series of clathrate compounds of the three-dimensional metal complex hosts (N-methyl-1,3-diaminopropane)cadmium(II) tetracyanonickelate(II), (N,N-Dimethyl-1,3-diaminopropane)cadmium(II) Tetracyanonickelate(II), and (2-Hydroxyethylmethylamine) cadmium(II) Tetracyanonickelate(II)

The clathrate compounds of the title three-dimensional metal complex hosts have been prepared with various aliphatic, alicyclic, and aromatic guest molecules. The typical structure has been demonstrated for a cyclohexane clathrate (N-methyl-1,3-diaminopropane)cadmium(II) tetracyanonickelate(II)-cyclohexane(2/1) by X-ray single crystal analysis. The powder X-ray diffraction data were assigned for the other clathrates to the tetragonal systems isostructural to the cyclohexane clathrate in which the box-like cavity with the approximate dimensions of 7 × 7 × 5 ų accommodates the guest molecule.     

Formation Thermodynamics of Binary and Ternary Lanthanide(III) Complexes with 1,10-Phenanthroline and Chloride in N,N-Dimethylformamide

Formation thermodynamics of binary and ternary lanthanide(III) (Ln = La, Ce, Nd, Eu, Gd, Dy, Tm, Lu) complexes with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and the chloride ion have been studied by titration calorimetry and spectrophotometry in N,N-dimethyl-formamide (DMF) containing 0.2 mol-dm^–3 (C₂H₅)₄NClO₄ as a constant ionic medium at 25°C. In the binary system with 1,10-phenanthroline, the Ln(phen)³⁺ complex is formed for all the lanthanide(III) ions examined. The reaction enthalpy and entropy values for the formation of Ln(phen)³⁺ decrease in the order La > Ce > Nd, then increase in the order Nd < Eu < Gd < Dy, and again decrease in the order Dy > Tm > Lu. The variation is explained in terms of the coordination structure of Ln(phen)³⁺ that changes from eight to seven coordination with decreasing ionic radius of the metal ion. In the ternary Ln³⁺-Cl^–-phen system, the formation of LnCl(phen)²⁺, LnCl₂(phen)⁺, and LnCl₃(phen) was established for cerium(III), neodymium(III), and thulium(III), and their formation constants, enthalpies, and entropies were obtained. The enthalpy and entropy values are also discussed from the structural point of view.     

Thermodynamics of complexation of zinc(II) with chloride,bromide and iodide ions in hexamethylphosphoric triamide

The complexation of zinc(II) with chloride, bromide and iodide ions has been studied by calorimetry in hexamethylphosphoric triamide (HMPA) containing 0.1 mol-dm^–3 (n-C₄H₉)₄NClO₄ as a constant ionic medium at 25°C. The formation of [ZnX_n]^(2–n)+ (n=1,2,3,4 for X=Cl; n=1,2 for X=Br, I) is revealed, and their formation constants, enthalpies and entropies were determined. It is proposed that the zinc(II) ion is fourcoordinated in HMPA and the coordinating HMPA molecules are stepwise replaced with halide ions to form [ZnX_n(hmpa)_4–n]^(2–n)+ (n=1–4), as is the case for the cobalt(II) ion. Furthermore, the formation of [ZnClI], [ZnBrI], [ZnBrCl] and [ZnBrCl₂]^– is revealed in the relevant ternary systems. It is found that the affinity of a given halide ion X^– to [ZnCl]⁺, [ZnBr]⁺ and [Znl]⁺ is practically the same.     

Thermodynamic, crystallographic and solvent extraction properties of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of ethylenediamine- N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetanilide

Complexes of ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetanilide (edtan, C₃₄H₃₆N₆O₁₄) with cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) in the solid state and in solution are reported for the first time. Thermodynamic data (stability constant, and derived Gibbs energy, enthalpy and entropy changes)for the 1 : 1 complexation of edtan with the metal ions at 298.15 K in water-saturated butan-1-ol gave the selectivity sequence log₁₀K_s; Ni²⁺, 4.56±0.02; Cu²⁺, 4.41±0.01; Co²⁺, 4.18±0.04 as found from microcalorimetric titration studies. The entropies suggested that the structure of the 1 : 1 complex with copper(II) contains fewer chelate rings than those for nickel(II) and cobalt(II) (δ_cS⁰ : Cu-21.4, Co 5.7, Ni 3.9 J mol⁻¹K⁻¹). Solid complexes of the metal ions with edtan and perchlorate as the counter anion were prepared. For each, a complex with a 1 : 1 metal: edtan stoichiometry with non-coordinated perchlorate was isolated. The X-ray structure of [Cu(edtan)(H₂O)][ClO₄]₂·1.5H₂O (1) revealed a six-coordinate Cu centre with edtan acting as pentadentate ligand (2N, 3O) with the coordination sphere completed by an oxygen atom from water. In striking contrast to the Cu complex, the Co centre in [Co(edtan)(H₂O)][ClO₄]₂·H₂O·0.5C₂H₅OH (2) is seven-coordinate with hexadentate edtan (2N, 4O) and one coordinated water molecule. There is thus an excellent confirmation of the results obtained from the microcalometric study in that edtan forms four chelate rings to Cu but five to Co in the solid state. The ability of the ligand to extract metal ions from water to the water-saturated butan-1-ol phase was assessed from distribution data as a function of the aqueous phase hydrogen ion concentration and of the ligand concentration in the organic phase. The data showed that Cu²⁺ is selectively extracted over a wide range of aqeous phase hydrogen ion concentrations.     

Complex formation of polyethyleneimine with copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) ions

An influence of the structure of a globule of polyethyleneimine on the complex formation of one with the copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) ions is described. A change of the coordination number from the pH of solution for complexes of ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, and polyethyleneimine with metal ions was found. The fraction of monomer links, bound with metal ions, depends on the volume of the globule of macromolecule as well as the condition of the proceeding reaction. The reaction of complex formation is controlled by the diffusion of metal ions into the polymer globule in solution. The effective equilibrium constants of complex formation were found. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 40: 914–922, 2002; DOI 10.1002/pola.10157

Three new coordination complexes of cobalt(III), manganese(II), and copper(II) with N,N,O-donor hydrazone ligands: syntheses and structural characterizations

Three new coordination complexes, 2{[Co(L¹)₂]ClO₄} · 0.5CH₃OH (1), [Mn(L²)₂] (2), and [Cu(HL²)(L²)]ClO₄ · 2H₂O (3) have been synthesized from two tridentate N,N,O-donor hydrazone ligands HL¹, 2-acetylpyridine-salicyloylhydrazone, and HL², 2-benzoylpyridine-salicyloylhydrazone, respectively and thoroughly characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV–Vis, electrochemical, and room temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements. Structures of the complexes have been unequivocally established by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. Structural analysis reveals that 1 consists of two chemically similar but crystallographically independent cationic [Co(L¹)₂]⁺ units and 2 consists of a neutral [Mn(L²)₂] molecule while 3 consists of a cationic [Cu(HL²)(L²)]⁺ unit. Metal ions display distorted octahedral geometry in 1 and 2 while in 3 it shows a distorted square pyramidal geometry. Ligand conformations around the metal ions are stabilized by the presence of intra-ligand hydrogen bonding in all the complexes. Structure of 3 reveals that a perchlorate ion linked to the complex by hydrogen bonding via a water molecule.     

Equilibrium studies of Mn(II), Mg(II), Ca(II), Sr(II) and Ba(II) withp-fluoro-,p-chloro-,p-bromo-,p-methyl-benzoylacetones and 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-pentanedione

The rawpH-data, obtained from the potentiometric titrations of the titled ligands with NaOH in 75% (v/v) dioxane-water mixture performed at 20, 30 and 40°C at constant ionic strength (=0.1M-NaClO₄), have been adequately corrected for dilution, and solvent effects in order to evaluate thermodynamic dissociation constants. Variance of the latter as a function of temperature has also been accounted for. The differing magnitudes of thermodynamic dissociation constants of the titled ligands have been explained on the basis of the non coplanar orientation of the phenyl ring in the ligands and a comparison has been made with those of unsubstituted benzoylacetone, dibenzoylmethane and acetylacetone.Following similar technique, thermodynamic stepwise and overall formation constants of the titled metal-ligand systems have been obtained and the results correlated with ligand basicity inverse metal crystal radii and second potentials of metals. Decrease in the free enthalpy (–G) of complexation reaction has also been evaluated.

Thermal Behaviour of the N-donor Adducts of Metal Saccharinates. II. 1,10-phenanthroline saccharinato complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II)

Adducts of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II) saccharinates with 1,10-phenathroline were synthesized and their thermoanalytical (TG, DTG and DTA) curves in the 20–1000°C temperature interval and static air atmosphere were recorded. The complexes are best represented as M(C₁₂H₈N₂)_x(C₇H₄NO₃S)₂⋅yH₂O (x=2, 2, 2, 2 and 1; y=1, 1, 2, 1 and 2 for M=Co, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb, respectively). The decomposition of the compounds regularly started with dehydration, followed by loss of the phenanthroline ligand(s). The structures of the Cu and Pb complexes are notably different from other compounds. FTIR spectra of the title compounds in the region of the OH, CO and SO₂ stretching vibrations were also studied. The pronounced similarity of the spectra of Co, Ni and Zn adducts indicates possible isomorphism among them.

Solvation Structure and Complexation of the Manganese(II) Ion in N,N-Dimethylpropionamide and N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethylurea Studied by Means of Titration Calorimetry and Raman Spectroscopy

Aprotic N,N-dimethylpropionamide (DMPA) and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylurea (TMU) are both strong donor solvents and coordinate to metal ions through the carbonyl oxygen atom. These solvents show a different conformational aspect in the bulk phase, i.e., DMPA exists as either a planar cis or a nonplanar staggered conformer, while TMU exists in a single planar cis conformer. It has been established that the manganese(II) ion is solvated by five molecules in both solvents. Interestingly, although the planar cis conformer of DMPA is more favorable than the nonplanar staggered one in the bulk phase, the reverse is the case in the coordination sphere of the metal ion, i.e., a conformational change occurs upon solvation. To reveal the thermodynamic aspect of this conformational change, the complexation of Mn(II) with bromide ions in DMPA and TMU has been studied by titration calorimetry at 298 K. It was found that the Mn(II) ion forms mono-, di- and tri-bromo complexes in both solvents, and their formation constants, enthalpies and entropies were obtained. The Δ H∘₁ value for MnBr⁺ strongly depends on the solvent, i.e., it is positive (19.4 kJ-mol⁻¹) in DMPA and negative (−8.7 kJ-mol⁻¹) in TMU, whereas the Δ H^∘₂ and Δ H∘₃ values for the stepwise formation of MnBr₂ and MnBr₃⁻ are both small and negative. The enthalpy of transfer Δ_tH^∘ from DMPA to TMU, which is evaluated on the basis of the extrathermodynamic TATB assumption, is 25.5 kJ-mol⁻¹ for Mn²⁺ and −3.6 kJ-mol⁻¹ for MnBr⁺. These values indicate that the difference between the formation enthalpy of MnBr⁺ in the two solvents, Δ H^∘₁ (DMPA) – Δ H∘₁ (TMU), is mainly ascribed to the value of Δ_tH^∘(Mn²⁺). It is found that the metal ion is also five-coordinated in the monobromo complex, MnBr(DMPA)₄⁺ . The enthalpy for the conformational change of DMPA from its planar cis to the nonplanar staggered form is evaluated to be −11 and −5.5 kJ-mol⁻¹ for Mn(DMPA)₅^{2 +} and MnBr(DMPA)₄⁺, respectively. Note that these values are significantly smaller than the corresponding value (5.0 kJ-mol⁻¹) in the bulk phase. We thus conclude that, although steric hindrance among solvent molecules is reduced by replacing one DMPA of Mn(DMPA)₅^{2 +} with the relatively small bromide ion, DMPA molecules are still sterically hindered in the MnBr(DMPA)₄⁺ complex.     

Thermal studies on cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) ternary complexes of N-(2-acetamido) iminodiacetic acid and imidazoles

The thermal decomposition of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes has been studied using thermogravimetry (TG) and differential TG (DTG). The complexes have been characterized by IR spectroscopy. The results reveal that the decomposition of these complexes is accompanied by the formation of metal acetate as an intermediate fragments. On the basis of the applicability of a non-isothermal kinetic equations, it was demonstrated that the stability of the complexes follows the order Co(II)>Cu(II)>Ni(II). These stably correspond to the strength of chelation between the metal ions and the primary and secondary ligands. A possible mechanism of the thermal decomposition of the complexes is suggested.     

Conductance studies in amide-water mixtures. II. Sodium salts inN,N-dimethylformamide-water mixtures at 35°C

Conductance data for sodium nitrite, chloride, and acetate in water andN,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)-water mixtures (74.82D42.48) for the concentration range 0.001–0.04N, as well as the densities, viscosities, and dielectric constants of the solvent mixtures at 35°C, are reported. The data have been analyzed by the Fuoss (1975) equation. The existence of a maximum in the viscosity at a 13 mole ratio of DMF and water is indicated. The Walden products for all the three salts pass through a maximum while the equivalent conductances show a minimum with increasing DMF content. The maxima in the Walden product are attributed to the dehydration of ions by the cosolvent (DMF).Part I:Indian J. Chem. 14A, 1015 (1976).Deceased.     

Syntheses based on (N,N-difluoroamino)dinitroacetonitrile

Thermal Behaviour of the N-donor Adducts of Metal Saccharinates III. Imidazole saccharinates of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cd(II)

The complexes [M(HIm)₄(H₂O)₂](sac)₂ (M=Co, Ni) and [Cd(HIm)₂(sac)₂]₂ with saccharin (sac) and imidazole (HIm) were synthesized and their thermal (TG, DTG and DTA) behaviour in the interval from room temperature up to 1000°C in a static air atmosphere was investigated. Irrespectively of whether the deprotonated saccharinato residues are present as ligands or ions or both as ligands and ions, the anhydrous complexes regularly decompose in two stages. The thermal data of 16 saccharinato complexes (including the title compounds) were correlated with the respective structural data. The general thermal stability order of the saccharinato complexes can be represented as: Pb(II)<Zn(II)<Co(II)Ni(II)<Cd(II) (the stability of the Cu saccharinates depends on the particular compound) and is dictated by several structural factors, e.g. metal ionic radii, participation of the water in the coordination sphere of the metal and other structural characteristics.
