Electrochromatography of Metal Ions on Zirconium(IV) Phosphoantimonate Papers: Quantitative Separation of Platinum(IV) from Platinum Group and Other Metal Ions

Abstract

Zirconium (IV) phosphoantimonate impregnated papers have been used to study the electrochromatographic behaviour of 29 metal ions in buffers of weak organic acids with their corresponding ammonium salts as background electrolytes at fixed voltage and time intervals. As a result of these investigations, the variation in the average mobility of metal ions with the ionisation constants of the organic acids used in buffers and other parameters such as atomic numbers and charge on the metal ions has been studied. On the basis of the differential mobilites of the metal ions, which depends on the ion exchange properties of Zr(IV) phosphoantimonate and the nature of the complexes formed with the electrolytes, some binary, ternary and quarternary separation have been achieved. Besides microgram separations (25 μg-100 μg) of Pt(TV) from Pt group and other metal ions have also been achieved.     

Gel Chromatographic Behavior of Labile Metal Complexes Trimeta- And Tetrametaphosphate Complexes with Bivalent Metal Cations

Abstract

The gel chromatographic behavior of metal ions in a labile complex formation system was expressed as a function of the ligand concentration in an eluent and the stability constants of the complexes. Trimeta- and tetrametaphosphate complexes with bivalent metal ions were used as examples. The retention volumes of the metal complexes were found to be always greater than those of the corresponding free ligands.     

A Spectrophotometric Study of Fe(III) Chelates of Some Hydroxy Coumarin Derivatives

Chelates formation of Fe(III) with 7–hydroxy–4–methyl coumarin–6–carboxylic acid (HMCCH)₂ and 8–amino–7–hydroxy–4–methyl coumarin (AHMCH) have been studied. It has been observed that Fe(III) forms 1:2 (metal:ligand) chelates with HMCCH₂ and AHMCH. The stability constants of these chelates at different ionic strengths and the effect of temperature on the stability constants of these chelates have been studied. The thermodynamic parameters such as entropy change (ΔS), free energy of formation (ΔG) and enthalpy change (ΔH) have also been calculated. The effect of dielectric constant oh the stability constants of these chelates have been studied. Estimation of nanogram quantities of Fe(III) with these ligands and the effect of diverse ions have also been studied and the results have been compared with other methods used for estimation of Fe(III).

Synthesis,Potentiometric and 1H NMR Study of Protonation and Complex Formation of 1,4,7-Triazacyclononane-1,4-Diacetate

Abstract

Protonation constants and the protonation scheme of 1,4,7-triazacyclononone-1,4-diacetate (NO2A) have been determined by pH potentiometry and ¹H NMR techniques; shielding constants valid for the entire pH range have been calculated. It has been pointed out that the most basic site in the molecule is the unsubstituted secondary amino group. The first two protonation steps belong to ring nitrogens, the third and fourth ones to the carboxylates; the last nitrogen is protonated in very acidic solutions only. Stability constants of complexes of NO2A with selected divalent and trivalent metal ions were determined; with them no indication of kinetic inertness was found. In NO2A complexes the relative contribution of the triazacyclononane ring to the log K _ML values is greater for soft than for hard metal ions, compared to corresponding values for 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetate.     

BINDING ABILITY OF OXINE-LIKE LIGANDS. POTENTIOMETRIC AND POLAROGRAPHIC STUDY ON Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) AND Cd(II) COMPLEXES OF 9-HYDROXYPYRIDO(1,2,-α)PYRIMIDIN-4-ONE

Abstract

Potentiometric and polarographic studies of metal ion coordination with 9-hydroxypyrido[1,2-α]pyrimidin-4-one (HPP) with Ni(II), Zn(II), Co(II) and Cd(II) ions have been carried out. For comparison, stability constants with 8-hydroxy-imidazo[1,2-α]pyridine (HIP) were also measured. Due to the low solubility of the latter ligand complexes, measurements were made also in dioxan/water solutions. In the case of both ligands the coordination mode is the same. The oxine-like binding via {N, O^?} donor set leads to formation of stable ML and ML₂ complexes. Stability constants clearly indicate that both ligands are very effective and the HPP, having a more favourable position of the electron pair on nitrogen, forms stronger complexes with smaller metal ions i.e., Ni(II), Zn(II) and Co(II). Cd(II) is better fitted to the HIP donor set.     

A critical review on the stability constants of the fluoride complexes of actinides in aqueous solution and their correlation with fundamental properties of the ions

Literature data on the stability constants of the fluoride complexes of the actinides in different oxidation states have been compiled. In order to have a reasonable inter-comparison, the stability constant (β₁) values obtained in diverse ionic strength media are converted to so called thermodynamic stability constants, β ₁ ⁰ using the DAVIES equation (a modification of Debye-Huckel equation). A correlation of the β ₁ ⁰ values with the fundamental properties of the actinide ions using various models available in the literature has been attempted. Using the values of inonic radii and best available values of the stability constants of a large number of metal ions from recent compilations a comparative study of the various models or relations available in the literature has been tried. For metal ions in general, the semi-empirical relation recently developed by BROWN, SYLVA and ELLIS (BSE equation)_gives the best correlation. In an attempt to accommodate the unusual trend in the stability constants of the tetravalent actinides a modification in a parameter of the BSE equation has been proposed. Good agreement between the theoretically calculated and experimentally determined values for actinides in different oxidation states is obtained in most of the cases. Further improvements in theoretical relation as well as experimental data are required for better correlation.

A new method for the evaluation of stability constants of complex species has been proposed, based on the principle of Donnan exclusion chromatography.

Potentiometric and conductometric studies of malonyl bis(salicyloylhydrazone) and divalent metal complexes

A series of complexes of divalent transition metal ions with malonyl bis(salicyloylhydrazone) (H₄MSH) have been prepared and characterized with the help of conductometric, potentiometric methods. The proton–ligand and metal–ligand stability constants were obtained pH-metrically. The electrical conductivity of solid complexes was measured at 289 K. The low molar conductance values observed for these complexes indicate that, they are non-electrolytes. They are soluble to a limited extent in DMF and DMSO. The elemental analyses of the complexes indicate that the complexes have 1:1 and 2:1 (M:L) stoichiometry with the existence of water, chloride, acetone molecules inside the coordination sphere as evidence from the IR spectral studies. Further, the complexes have been formulated by comparing C, H, N & metal analysis data, and UV–visible spectra of the complexes have been discussed. The protonation constants of the ligand and the stability constants of their metal complexes will be evaluated potentiometrically. The stoichiometric ratios of the complexes formed in solution will be evaluated applying the molar ratio (spectrophotometric) method and confirmed conductometrically.

Determination of the stability constants of uranyl complex with 8-hydroxyquinolinium sulfate

8-Hydroxyquinoline (8-HOQ) is known as an important chelating agent for several metal ions. This compound is practically insoluble in water. For this reason, in this study its water soluble sulfate salt has been used for complexing uranyl ions and the stability constants of the complex have been determined. The Irving-Rosotti method computing the Calvin-Bjerrum pH-titration data, was applied. Finally, the stability constants of the complex formed between (8-HOQN-H)₂SO₄ and uranyl ions were found to be lgK₁=8.25 and lgK₂=4.15, the overall stability constant being {ie55-1}.     

Conditional Stability Constant Determination of Metal-Fulvic Acid Complexes

Abstract

Conditional stability constants for metal complexes of a terrestrial fulvic acid were determined using an ion-exchange chromatography—atomic absorbance spectroscopy method. Employing the Scatchard model, conditional stability constants were determined for the metal (II) fulvic acid complexes of cadminum, copper, lead, nickel, manganese, and zinc. The order of metal binding by the fulvic acid was determined to be: Cu > Ni > Pb > Zn > Cd > Mn. Complexes of weakly bound metal ions were determined with an added metal ion concentration of 2 × 10^–5 M to 1 × 10^–4 M while complexes of strongly bound metal ions were determined with an added metal ion concentration of 1 × 10^–5 M to 8 × 10^–4 M. The fulvic acid concentration was kept constant at 4 × 10^–4 M. The effect of pH and ionic strength on the copper-fulvic acid complex also was investigated.

Stability constants of cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes with α-, β-, and γ-aminobutyrate as well as the protonation constants of these ligands have been determined by potentiometric titration. ΔG ^? values, computed from the stability constants, increase in the orderAABA. The increase in ΔG ^? AABA→BABA amounts approx. 15 per cent. The same difference was observed for α- and β-alaninato complexes with various transition metal ions.     

Stability constants of metal complexes of macrocyclic ligands with pendant donor groups

Abstract

In our studies of the stability constants of metal complexes, we have investigated a number of macrocyclic ligands with pendant donor groups. The ligands are characterized by the fact that they have nitrogen donors in the macrocyclic ring and oxygen or sulfur donors in the pendant arms. These ligands represent seven different macrocycles, and by varying the pendant donor groups, ten different ligands are indicated. The affinities of these ligands for fifteen metal ions will be described. The Fe(III) complex of triazanonane with o-hydroxypyridyl or o-hydroxybenzyl pendant donor groups are the most stable ferric complexes ever reported. The In(III) complex of triazacyclononane with pendant mercaptoethyl donor groups, is exceptionally stable. Also, the Ca(II) complex of DOTA probably has the highest stability of any calcium(II) complex. These, and other comparisons will be made on the basis of the thermodynamic stability constant data for the ligands described.
