Experimental determination of repulsive potentials between alkali ions (Li+, Na+, and K+) and N2 and CO molecules

Integral scattering cross sections have been measured for alkali ions (Li⁺, Na⁺ and K⁺) in the energy range 500–4000 eV scattered by room temperature N₂ and CO molecules through effective laboratory angles greater than 5 × 10^?3 rad. The repulsive potentials deduced from the cross sections are represented bya practically identical formula for the Na⁺N₂ and Na⁺CO systems, and for the K⁺CO systems, respectively, while the repulsive potentials of the Li⁺N₂ system are somewhat smaller than those of the Li⁺CO system at larger intermolecular distances.     

An ab initio study of the binding of N2 to Na+ and K+

The binding energies of N₂ to Na⁺ and K⁺ are computed, using the SCF supermolecule approach with extended basis sets together with the counterpoise correction computed in two extreme ways, and supplemented by a perturbation calculation of the dispersion energy. Inclusion of the calculated zero-point energy and the additional correction due to the variation of the correlation in N₂ upon complexation leads to an Na⁺-N₂ binding of ?7.9 to ?8.1 kcal/mole (compared to a measured enthalpy of ?8 ± 0.5) and to a corresponding theoretical value computed for K⁺-N₂ of ?4.6 to ?4.8 kcal/mole.     

协同萃取液膜体系从Li+、Na+、K+混合溶液中提取Li+

金属离子Na+ , Li+ , Mg2+与硫酸根离子形成的无水缔合物种的从头算量子化学研究

计算并讨论了Na+, Li+和Mg2+ 3种离子与SO42-离子形成离子缔合物的结构以及阳离子的结合对ν1-SO42-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ν1-SO42-频率, 一种是极化作用, 可使ν1-SO42-频率红移; 另一种是成键作用, 可使ν1-SO42-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ν1-SO42-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ν1-SO42-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ν1-SO42-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ν1-SO42-频率继续发生蓝移.     

Ab initio calculations on the clustering energies and stable structures of H(M)+ + M → H(M)2+ (M = CO and N2)

The clustering energies of the reactions, H(M)⁺+ M → H(M)⁺₂ (M = CO and N₂), were calculated by ab initio single configuration LCAO SCF MO and SCEP methods. The calculated energies are in good agreement with the experimental enthalpies.     

Studies on primary hydrated complexes of Li+, Na+ and K+ ions by the extended Hückel method

The potential curves for aquacomplexes of Li⁺, Na⁺ K⁺ ions with the coordination numbers, n, equal to 4, 6 and 8 have been calculated by the extended Hückel method. The equilibrium values of the hydrated shell radius and the binding energy have been determined. The complexes of Li⁺ with n = 6 and Na⁺ and K⁺ with n = 8 were found to be the most advantageous energetically. As could be expected the contribution of the 3d-orbitals to the binding for the K⁺ion is much more considerable than for the Na⁺ion. The character of the potential curves for aquacomplexes of sodium and potassium ions is quite different. In the case of the K⁺ion the curves are found to be very smooth and slowly decreasing with distance, which can be attributed to the poor hydratability of this ion and the “loosening” of water structure by it.     

金属离子Na+,Li+及Mg2+与C1O4-和NO3-形成的无水离子缔合物种的从头算量子化学研究

采用量子化学计算方法在B3 LYP/6-311++G**水平下对Na+,Li+和Mg2+与ClO4-和NO3-形成的离子缔合物种的结构以及v1-频率进行了研究,并将结果与SO42-和上述3种阳离子形成的物种进行了对比.在缔合物种结构方面,当阳离子数目≤2时,与SO42-体系相似,ClO4-和NO3-主要与阳离子形成双齿缔合结构,而当阳离子数目＞2时,特别是具有2个正电荷的Mg2+离子数目较多时,由于阳离子间的斥力更大,与阳离 子结合能力较弱的ClO4-和NO3-较难与其形成稳定的离子团簇,而在SO42-体系中,则易形成单齿缔合结构.在v1-频率的变化趋势方面,3种阴离子形成的缔合物种大体相同,说明无水离子团簇的频率变化主要受阳离子性质和缔合结构影响.虽然阴离子性质也有部分影响,但不占主要地位.

The formation constants of Li⁺, N⁺, K⁺, Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺ phenoxyacetate complexes were determined potentiometrically using an (H⁺)-glass electrode at 10, 25, 37 and 45°C, at several ionic strengths, in the range 0.04?I? 0.9 mol 1^?1. Simple empirical equations for the dependence of the formation constants on ionic strength were derived. From the temperature coefficients, estimates of ΔH^o and ΔS^o were obtained.     

Study of the structure of molecular complexes. Coordination numbers for Li+, Na+, K+, F− and Cl− in water

A cluster of 200 water molecules containing a single ion (either Li⁺ or Na⁺ or K⁺ or F^? or Cl^?) has been studied at T = 298 K using Monte Carlo techniques. The waterwater interaction is obtained from a quantum-mechanical study of CI type; the ionwater potentials have been obtained from HartreeFock type computations. The computed coordination numbers in the first shell for Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, F^? and Cl^? are 4.0, 4.3, 5.1, 3.85 and 4.3, respectively; the corresponding first hydration shell radii are 2.28 Å, 2.59 Å, 3.27 Å, 1.99 Å and 2.85 Å, respectively. A discussion of the second and third hydration shell radii and coordination numbers is given.     

钙钛矿结构荧光材料MZrO3:Eu3+,A (M=Ca2+, Ba2+; A=Li+, Na+, K+)的制备及其发光性质

Calcium and barium zirconate powders based upon CaZrO₃:Eu³⁺,A and BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺,A (A=Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺) were prepared by combustion synthesis method and heating to ~1000℃ to improve crystallinity.The structure and morphology of materials were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanningelectron microscopy (SEM). XRD results showed that CaZrO₃:Eu³⁺,A and BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺,A (A=Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺) perovskites possessed orthorhombic and cubic structures, respectively. The morphologies of all powderswere very similar consisting of small, coagulated, cubical particles with narrow size distributions andsmooth and regular surfaces. The characteristic luminescences of Eu³⁺ ions in CaZrO₃:Eu³⁺,A (A=Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺) lattices were present with strong emissions at 614 and 625 nm for ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ transitions with other weakeremissions observed at 575, 592, 655, and 701 nm corresponding to ⁵D₀→⁷F_n transitions (where n=0, 1, 3, 4 respectively). In BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺ both the ⁵D₀→⁷F₁ and ⁵D₀→⁷F₂ transitions at 595 and 613 nm were strong.Photoluminescence intensities of CaZrO₃:Eu³⁺ samples were higher than those of BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺ lattices. Thisremarkable increase of photoluminescence intensity (corresponding to ⁵D₀→⁷F_n transitions) was observedin CaZrO₃:Eu³⁺ and BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺ if co-doped with Li⁺ ions. An additional broad band composed of manypeaks between 440 to 575 nm was observed in BaZrO₃:Eu³⁺,,A samples. The intensity of this band wasgreatest in Li⁺ co-doped samples and lowest for K⁺ doped samples.     

The formation of proton and alkali-metal complexes with ligands of biological interest in aqueous solution. Thermodynamics of H+, Na+ and K+—oxalate complexes

The protonation constants of oxalic acid were determined potentiometrically at 37°C in different media—NaNo₃, KNO₃ and Et₄NI, 0.03? I ? 0.3. From these data it was possible to determine the formation of the complexes [Na(ox)]^? and [K(ox)]^? and [K(ox)]^?, and to calculate their stability constants. Simultaneous analysis of potentionmetric and calorimetric data (this work and literature) enabled the temperature and ionic strength dependendence of the equilibrium parameters to be obtained for the protonation of oxalate. Recalculation of some literature data gave the ΔH value for the formation of the [Na(ox)]^? complex. The thermodynamic parameters obtained allowed us to confirm the hypothesis that dicarboxylate anions chelate with alkali-metal ions and that these complexes are mainly entropically stabilized.     

Ionic conductivity in Na+, K+, and Ag+ β″-alumina

This paper presents measurements of the ionic conductivity in single crystals of β″-alumina (0.84 M₂O · 0.67 MgO · 5.2 Al₂O₃, M = Na, K, Ag). Single crystals of sodium β″-alumina were grown from a melt of Na₂O, MgO, and Al₂O₃ at 1660 to 1730°C. Selected crystals were converted to the other isomorphs by ion exchange. The conductivity of sodium β″-alumina varies from 0.18 to 0.01 (ohm · cm)^?1 at 25°C depending upon crystal growth conditions. Potassium β″-alumina has the unusually high room temperature conductivity of 0.13 (ohm · cm)^?1. Silver β″-alumina has a slightly lower conductivity, 4 × 10^?3 (ohm · cm)^?1 at 25°C. The activation energies of sodium and potassium β″-alumina decrease with increasing temperature, while that of silver β″-alumina is constant from ?80 to 450°C.     

Molecular structure and character of bonding of mono and divalent metal cations (Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, and Cu+) with guanosine: AIM and NBO analysis

The B3LYP/6-311++G (d,p) density functional approach was used to study the gas-phase metal affinities of Guanosine (ribonucleoside) for the Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cu⁺ cations. In this study we determine coordination geometries, binding strength, absolute metal ion affinities, and free energies for the most stable products. We have also compared the results for Guanosine, with our previously reported results for 2′-Deoxyguanosine. Based on the results, it is obvious that MIA is strongly dependent on the charge-to-size ratio of the cation. Guanosine interacts more strongly with Zn²⁺ than do with Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, and Cu⁺ and therefore stronger interactions lead to higher MIA. In both free molecules and their complexes, the Syn orientation of the base is stabilized by an intramolecular O5′–H···N3 hydrogen bond and the anti orientation of the base is stabilized by an intramolecular C–H···O hydrogen bond formed between the (C8-H8) and the O5′ atom of the sugar moiety. It is also interesting to mention that linear correlation between calculated MIA values and the atomic numbers (Z) of the metal ions of Li⁺, Na⁺, and K⁺ were found. Furthermore, the influences of metal cationization on the strength of the N-glycosidic bond, torsion angles, angle of pseudorotation (P), and intramolecular C–H···O and O–H···O hydrogen bonds have been studied. Natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis was performed to calculate the charge transfer and natural population analysis of the complexes. Quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) was also applied to determine the nature of interactions.     

AB initio calculations on the hydration energies of Br− Ion

The energies of hydrated Br^? ion for coordination numbers up to 4 have been calculated with an ab inito MO method. The most favorable orientation is the ion—dipole one, in contrast to the H-bonded orientation for Cl^?(H₂O) and F^?(H₂O). The hydration energies calculated in this study are in fair agreement with those obtained by Arshadi.     

Ab initio calculation of the equilibrium geometry and the 13C, 17O, 23Na and 7Li NMR shielding tensors of the systems Na+/CO and Li+/CO

Using ab initio SCF calculations two minima have been found in Na⁺/CO and Li⁺/CO. The minimum corresponding to CO…Na⁺ is slightly deeper than in Na⁺…CO. The minimum corresponding to CO…Li⁺ is deeper than in Li⁺…CO. The ¹³C, ¹⁷O, ²³Na and ⁷Li NMR shielding tensors were computed with the coupled Hartree—Fock method with large gaussian basis sets.     

The formation of proton and alkali metal complexes with ligands of biological interest in aqueous solution. Thermodynamics of Li+, Na+ and K+-dicarboxylate complex formation

The formation and stability of Li⁺, Na⁺ and K⁺ complexes with oxalate, malonate, succinate, maleate, DL-malate and phthalate were studied potentiometrically at various ionic strengths. From the data thus obtained, as well as from several literature data on the protonation of the above-mentioned ligands in various ionic media and at various temperatures, the dependence of Na⁺ and K⁺ complex formation on temperature was determined. The dependence on ionic strength, both for the protonation and the complex formation, is also discussed.
