Solvent extraction study of cobalt(II) with 8-mercaptoquinoline

Equilibrium distribution coefficients have been determined for the extraction of cobalt(II) with 8-mercaptoquinoline as a function of pH and reagent concentraton at ambient temperature. The extractable complex is a diadduct, i. e. two molecules of the reagent are coordinated to the cobalt(II) chelate. The adduct formation constant in chloroform and the overall formation constant in the aqueous phase have been determined. Pyridine and its methyl derivatives were found to enhance the extraction of Co(II) into chloroform in the presence of 8-mercaptoquinoline. From the extraction equilibrium data, the adduct formation constants of 12 chelate to nitrogen base adducts were evaluated. The special role of steric factors is discussed.     

An example of O2 binding in a cobalt(II) corrole system and high-valent cobalt-cyano and cobalt-alkynyl complexes

The novel cobalt corrolazine (Cz) complexes (TBP)(8)CzCoCN (1) and (TBP)(8)CzCo(CCSiPh(3)) (2) have been synthesized and examined in light of the recent intense interest regarding the role of corrole ligands in stabilizing high oxidation states. In the case of 2, the molecular structure has been determined by X-ray crystallography, revealing a short Co[bond]C distance of 1.831(4) A and an intermolecular pi-stacking interaction between Cz ring planes, and this structure has been analyzed in regards to the electronic configuration. By a combination of spectroscopic techniques it has been shown that 1 is best described as a cobalt(III)[bond]pi-cation-radical complex, whereas 2 is likely best represented as the resonance hybrid (Cz)Co(IV)(CCSiPh(3)) <--> (Cz+*)Co(III)(CCSiPh(3)). The reduced cobalt(II) complex, [(TBP)(8)CzCo(II)(py)](-), has been generated in situ and shown to bind dioxygen at low temperature to give [(TBP)(8)CzCo(III)(py)(O(2))](-). For the reduced complex [(TBP)(8)CzCo(II)(py)](-), the EPR spectrum in frozen solution is indicative of a low-spin cobalt(II) complex with a d(z)2 ground state. Exposure of [(TBP)(8)CzCo(II)(py)](-) to O(2) leads to the reversible formation of the cobalt(III)-superoxo complex [(TBP)(8)CzCo(III)(py)(O(2))](-), which has been characterized by EPR spectroscopy. VT-EPR measurements show that the dioxygen adduct is stable up to T approximately 240 K. This work is the first observation, to our knowledge, of O(2) binding to a cobalt(II) corrole.     

Formation of cyanide complexes of cobalt(II) and manganese(II)

The formation of complexes of the cyanide ion with Co(II) and Mn(II) has been studied potentiometrically in an aqueous sodium perchlorate medium of unit ionic strength at 298 K. Studies of the equilibria in the cobalt(II)-cyanide system show that at least one strong mononuclear complex exists, while in the manganese(II)-cyanide system two mononuclear complexes can be formed in the concentration range studied.     

Fluorescence Reaction of 5- (p-Methoxyphenylazo)-8-(p-tolylsulfonamido)quinoline with Cobalt(II) and Its Analytical Application

Abstract

5-(p-Methoxyphenylazo)-8-(p-tolylsulfonamido) quinoline(MTAQ) has been synthesized. The product was checked by IR, theroograviae-try, NMR and elemental analysis. A highly sensitive spectrofluorim-etric method has been developed for the determination of cobalt(II) based on the formation of a complex with MTAQ in slightly basic medium aqueous solution and In the presence of nonionic surfactant, tween-80. The complex shows two excitation maxima at 304 nm and 338 nm, its emission maximum is centred at 402 nm. The fluorescence intensity is proportional to cobalt(II) concentration in the range of 0-85 ppb. The method has good selectivity and has been applied to the direct fluorimetric determination of trace cobalt(II) in pig's liver, Dianchi shrimp and celery.     

Donor property of cobalt(II) Schiff base complexes toward triphenyltin(IV)‐chloride: A kinetic study

In this study, some cobalt(II)tetraaza Schiff base complexes were used as donors in coordinating to triphenyltin(IV)chloride as acceptors; the kinetics and mechanism of the adduct formation were studied spectrophotometrically. Co(II)tetraaza Schiff base complexes used were [Co(amaen)][N,N′‐ethylene‐bis‐(o‐amino‐α‐methylbenzylideneiminato)cobalt(II)] ( 1 ), [Co(appn)] [N,N′‐1,2‐propylene‐bis‐(o‐amino‐α‐phenylbenzylideneiminato)cobalt(II)] ( 2 ), [Co(ampen)] [N,N′‐ethylene‐bis‐(o‐amino‐α‐phenylbenzylideneiminato)cobalt‐(II)] ( 3 ), [Co(cappn)][N,N′‐1,2‐proylene‐bis‐(5‐chloro‐o‐amino‐α‐phenylbenzylideneiminato)cobalt(II)] ( 4 ), and [Co(campen)] [N,N′‐ethylene‐bis‐(5‐chloro‐o‐amino‐α‐phenylbenzylid‐eneiminato)cobalt(II)] ( 5 ). The reactivity trend of the complexes in interaction with triphenyltin(IV)chloride was Co(amaen) > Co(appn) > Co(ampen) > Co(cappn) > Co(campen). The linear plots of k_obs versus the molar concentration of the triphenyltin(IV)chloride, a high span of the second‐order rate constant k₂ values, and large negative values of ΔS^≠ and low ΔH^≠ values suggest an associative (A) mechanism for the acceptor–donor adduct formation. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synergic extraction of metals with α-acyl-d-camphor and optically active lewis bases

Solvent extraction of europium (III), zinc (II) cobalt (II) with α-acyl-d-camphor and optically active isomers of quinine and quinidine was studied in order to obtain information on chirality recognition based on adduct formation between a chiral metal chelate and optically active isomers. It was possible to differentiate clearly between the adduct formation of quinine and that of quinidine in the synergic extraction of cobalt and europium with 3-heptafluorobutyryl- d-camphor and cobalt with 3-trifluoroacetyl-d-camphor.     

Oxygenation of the cobalt(II) complex of an unsymmetrical bis-Schiff base

Summary The cobalt(II) complex of an unsymmetrical bis-Schiff base. Co(dha, salen), has been prepared. In the presence of pyridine, it forms both monomeric superoxo and dimeric peroxo adducts with dioxygen. At –10°C and lower temperatures, the adduct formed in pyridine solution is mainly superoxo as shown by electronic and e.s.r. spectra as well as volumetric measurement of oxygen uptake. The solid adduct precipitated by addition of toluene is predominantly peroxo as shown by elemental analysis, i.r. spectrum, magnetic and thermogravimetric measurements. Comparison of the oxygen affinities of this complex and of the symmetrical Co(salen) is discussed.     

Ligand Substitution Reaction of Bis(ethylenediamine)glycinatocobalt(III) Complex with Ethylenediamine Catalyzed by the Photo-excited Tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) Complex

Substitution reaction with ethylenediamine of coordinated glycinate ligand in bis(ethylenediamine)-glycinatocobalt(III) complex has been studied in the presence of photo-excited tris(2,2′-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) complex in alkaline aqueous solution (buffered around pH 12) containing 1.0M chloride ion at 25°C. VIS absorption and CD spectra were used for the racemate and the optically active isomers of the Co(III) complexes, respectively. The reaction was catalyzed by the excited Ru(II) complex to give tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) complex. Mechanism of the ligand-substitution reaction and role of the excited Ru(II) complex were discussed.

This work reports a study on the synergistic extraction of cobalt(II), spiked with⁶⁰Co from hydrochloric acid solutions by mixtures of trioctylamine (TOA) and neutral organophosphorous donors into carbon tetrachloride. Synergistic coefficients and adduct formation constants have been evaluated from distribution measurements and correlated with the basic character of donors.     

Synthesis,kinetics, and mechanism for adduct formation of tetraaza Schiff base cobalt(II) complexes with diorganotin(IV)dichlorides in dimethylformamide solvent

The kinetics and mechanism of the adduct formation of diorganotin(IV)dichlorides with Co(II) tetraaza Schiff base complexes, such as [Co(ampen)] {[N,N′‐ethylenebis‐(o‐amino‐α‐phenylbenzylideneiminato)cobalt(II)]}, [Co(campen)] {[N,N′‐ethylenebis‐(5‐chloro‐o‐amino‐α‐phenylbenzylideneiminato)cobalt(II)]}, and [Co(amaen)] {[N,N′‐ethylenebis‐(o‐amino‐α‐methylbenzylideneiminato)cobalt(II)]}, were studied spectrophotometrically. The kinetic parameters and the rate constant values show the following acceptor tendency trend for the diorganotin(IV)dichlorides: Ph₂SnCl₂> Me₂SnCl₂> Bu₂SnCl₂. Adducts have been separately synthesized and fully characterized by ¹¹⁹SnNMR, IR, UV–vis spectra, and elemental microanalysis (C,H,N) methods. The trend of the rate constants for the adduct formation of the cobalt complexes with a given tin acceptor decreases as follow: Co(amaen) > Co(ampen) > Co(campen). The linear plots of k_obs vs. the molar concentration of the diorganotin(IV)dichlorides, the high span of the second‐order rate constant k₂ values, and the large negative values of AS^≠ suggest an associative (A) mechanism for the acceptor–donor adduct formation. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Interaction between poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) and poly(acrylic acid)s: Influence of hydrogen and cupric ions on the adduct formation

Interpolymer adduct formation between poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) and poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) is mainly due to hydrogen bonding. It is found that the interpolymer adduct formation is enhanced in the presence of Cu(II). A simple turbidity measurement making use of a spectrophotofluorometer is described for the study of the interpolymer adduct formation. Enhanced adduct formation in the presence of Cu(II) is described by the empirical relation d[PAd]/D[PVP] = k × 10^4α[Cu(II)]^α, where PAd represents the interpolymer adduct and α and k are constants. Similar results have been obtained in the case of interpolymer adduct formation between poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and PVP. In the above expression α signifies the influence of chelation on Cu(II)–PAA/PMAA–PVP-type complex formation and k is the extent of PVP–PAA/PMAA interaction. The enhancement of adduct formation in the presence of Cu(II) is more in PAA than in PMAA. Turbidity and viscosity measurements further indicate that the influence of Cu(II) on interpolymer adduct formation between PVP and PMAA or PAA is more in the case of PAA than PMAA, as PAA is a better chelating ligand. But the extent of adduct formation is more in the case of PMAA in the absence of Cu(II) ions due to hydrophobic interactions exerted by methyl groups.     

Spectrophotometric determination of cobalt(II) with 2-(3′-sulfobenzoyl)pyridine benzoylhydrazone

A simple method has been described for the Spectrophotometric determination of cobalt(II) with 2-(3′-sulfobenzoyl)pyridine benzoylhydrazone (SBPBH). In aqueous solution, cobalt(II) reacts with SBPBH to form a yellow complex, which is not destroyed even by the addition of 3.8 M perchloric acid. The absorption maximum of the complex in 1.5 M perchloric acid medium was found to be 400 nm; the molar absorptivity was 2.17 × 10⁴ liters mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹. The proposed method is fairly selective and has been applied to the determination of cobalt in standard alloy steel samples.     

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.     

Catalytic dioxygen activation by (nitro)(meso-tetrakis(2-n-methylpyridyl)porphyrinato)cobalt(III) cation derivatives electrostatically immobilized in nafion films: an experimental and DFT investigation

Complexes of the (nitro)( meso-tetrakis(2- N-methylpyridyl)porphyinato)cobalt(III) cation, [LCoTMpyP(2)(NO 2)] (4+), in which L = water or ethanol have been immobilized through ionic attraction within Nafion films (Naf). These immobilized six-coordinate species, [LCoTMPyP(2)(NO 2)/Naf], have been found to catalyze the oxidation of triphenylphosphine in ethanol solution by dioxygen, therefore retaining the capacity to activate dioxygen catalytically without an additional reducing agent as was previously observed in nonaqueous solution for the non-ionic (nitro)cobalt porphyrin analogs. Heating these immobilized six-coordinate species under vacuum conditions results in the formation of the five-coordinate nitro derivatives, [CoTMPyP(2)(NO 2)/Naf] at 85 degrees C and [CoTMPyP(2)/Naf] at 110 degrees C. The catalytic oxidation of gas-phase cyclohexene with O 2 is supported only by the resulting immobilized five-coordinate nitro complex as was previously seen with the corresponding solution-phase catalyst in dichloromethane solution. The simultaneous catalytic oxidation of triphenylphosphine and cyclohexene with O 2 in the presence of the Nafion-bound six-coordinate ethanol nitro complex is also observed; however, this process is not seen for the CoTPP derivative in dichloromethane solution. The oxidation reactions do not occur with unmodified Nafion film or with Nafion-supported [BrCo(III)TmpyP]/Naf or [Co(II)TmpyP]/Naf, indicating the necessity for the nitro/nitrosyl ligand in the oxidation mechanism. The existence of a second reactive intermediate is indicated because the two simultaneous oxidation reactions depend on two distinct oxygen atom-transfer steps having different reactivity. The absence of homogeneous cyclohexene oxidation by the six-coordinate (H 2O)CoTPP(NO 2) derivatives in the presence of Ph 3P and O 2 in dichloromethane solution indicates that the second reactive intermediate is lost by an unidentified route only in solution, implying that the immobilization of it in Nafion allows it to react with cyclohexene. Although direct observation of this species has not been achieved, a comparitive DFT study of likely intermediates in several catalytic oxidation mechanisms at the BP 6-31G* level supports the possibility that this intermediate is a peroxynitro species on the basis of relative thermodynamic accessibility. The alternate intermediates evaluated include the reduced cobalt(II) porphyrin, the dioxygen adduct cobalt(III)-O 2 (-), the oxidized cobalt(II) pi-cation radical, and the nitrito complex, cobalt(III)-ONO.     

Spectrophotometry Determination of Iron(III) and Cobalt(II) with Salicylaldehyde Hydrazone (SH)

Iron and cobalt complexation with salicylaldehyde hydrazone (SH) has been studied spectrophotometrically employing solvent extraction technique. The Fe(III)-SH (1:3) and Co-SH (1:2) complex absorb at 510nm and 450 nm respectively. The sensitivity of the colour reactions are 0.014 and 0.005 in terms of Sandell's definition for iron and cobalt systems. Both the complexes show maximum and constant absorbance in the pH ranges 3.5 to 5.0 and 6.2 to 7.0 for Fe(III)-SH and Co(II)-SH respectively. The complexation has been used in the spectrophotometric determination of iron and cobalt in coexistence with several ions.     

Spectrophotometric Studies of Cobalt (II) Chelate of P-(2-Hydroxy-1-Naphthylazo) Benzenesulphonate

Cobalt(II) chelate of p-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthylazo)benzenesulphonate (orange II) has been studied spectrophotometrically in aqueous solution at 25° and at an ionic strength of 0.10 M. The formation of this chelate is pH dependent, the optimum pH range is between 9.5 to 10.8. Its mole ratio of ligand to cobalt(II) is 3 to 1 stoichiometry and the formation constant, logK, is determined as 19.17±0.13. By using the wave-length of 357 mμ, determination of trace amount of cobalt(II) with the sensitivity of 0.077 y/cm² is possible.     

Membrane of epoxidized styrene–butadiene–styrene block copolymer complexing with (N,N′-disalicylideneethylenediamine) cobalt (II) and use for oxygen permeation

The complex formation reaction of epoxidized styrene-butadiene-styrene triblock copolymer (ESBS) with (N,N-disalicylideneethylenediamine) cobalt(II) (CoS) in chloroform solution is studied. The coordination number and formation constant are determined by the Miller method. The membranes of ESBS complexing with CoS (ESBS–CoS) are made by solution casting method. The kinetics of oxygen binding to ESBS–CoS membrane is studied and the equilibrium constant, association, and dissociation constant are determined. The membrane of ESBS–CoS has the affinity to absorb oxygen with reversibility and that is confirmed by the studies of DSC. Due to the reversible absorption of oxygen to ESBS–CoS, the permeation of oxygen through ESBS–CoS membrane can be explained by dual mode.     

Charge transfer complexes of adenosine-5'-monophosphate and cytidine-5'-monophosphate with water-soluble cobalt(II) Schiff base complexes in aqueous solution

Water-soluble cobalt(II) tetradentate Schiff base complexes have been shown to form charge transfer (CT) complexes with a series of nucleoside monophosphates including adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP) and cytidine-5'-monophosphate (CMP). The investigated water-soluble cobalt(II) Schiff base complexes are (i) disodium[{bis(5-sulfo-salicylaldehyde)-o-phenylenediiminato}cobalt(II)], Na2[Co(SO3-salophen)] (1); (ii) disodium[{bis(5-sulfo-salicylaldehyde)-4,5-dimethyl-o-phenylenediiminato}cobalt(II)], Na2[Co(SO3-sal-4,5-dmophen)] (2) and (iii) disodium[{bis(4-methoxy-5-sulfo-salicylaldehyde)-4,5-dimethyl-o-phenylenediiminato}cobalt(II)], Na(2)[Co(SO3-4-meosal-4,5-dmophen)] (3). The formation constant and thermodynamic parameters for charge transfer complex formation of water-soluble cobalt(II) Schiff base complexes with nucleoside monophosphates were determined spectrophotometrically in aqueous solution at constant ionic strength (I = 0.2 mol dm(-3) KNO3) under physiological condition (pH 7.0) and at various temperatures between 288 and 308 K. The stoichiometry has been found to be 1:1 (water-soluble cobalt(II) Schiff base complex: nucleoside monophosphate) in each case. Our spectroscopic and thermodynamic results show that the interaction of water-soluble cobalt(II) Schiff base complexes with the investigated nucleoside monophosphates occurs mainly through the phosphate group. The trend of the interaction according to the cobalt(II) Schiff base complexes due to electronic and steric factors is as follows: Na2[Co(SO3-salophen)] > Na2[Co(SO3-sal-4,5-dmophen)] > Na2[Co(SO3-4-meosal-4,5-dmophen)]. Also the trend of the interaction of a given cobalt(II) Schiff base complex according to the nucleoside monophosphate is as follows: CMP > AMP.     

Kinetics of Fe(II) reduction of cis‐halogeno(dodecylamine) bis(ethylenediamine)‐ cobalt(III) complex ion in aqueous solutions

Kinetics of reduction of the surfactant complex ions, cis‐chloro/bromo (dodecylamine)bis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) by iron(II) in aqueous solution was studied at 303, 308, and 313 K by spectrophotometry method under pseudo‐first‐order conditions, using an excess of the reductant. The second‐order rate constant remains constant below critical micelle concentration (cmc), but increases with cobalt(III) concentration above cmc, and the presence of aggregation of the complex itself alters the reaction rate. The rate of reaction was not affected by the added [H⁺]. Variation of ionic strength (μ) influences the reaction rate. Activation and thermodynamic parameters have been computed. It is suggested that the reaction of Fe²⁺ (aq) with cobalt(III) complex proceeds by the inner‐sphere mechanism. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 38: 98–105, 2006     

Determination of Stability Constants of Metal(II)-Methionine and Metal(II)-Methionine-Cysteine (Binary and Mixed) Complexes with a Paper Ionophoretic Technique

A mixed complexation reaction of methionine and cysteine with copper(II) and cobalt(II) has been studied in solution phase using the paper electrophoretic technique at ionic strength 0.1 M and a temperature of 35°C. The binary equilibria copper(II)-methionine and cobalt(II)-methionine have also been studied, since this is prerequisite for the investigation of mixed complexes. The stability constants of copper(II)-methionine-cysteine and cobalt(II)-methionine-cysteine mixed complexes were found to be 2.80 ± 0.07 and 2.44 ± 0.11 (logarithm of stability constant values), respectively. This article was submitted by the authors in English.
