Capillary gas chromatography of metal chelates of diethyl dithiocarbamates

Summary Capillary GC of metal chelates of diethyl dithiocarbamate (DDTC) was examined on a methylsilicone DB-1 column, (25 meter, 0.2 mm. i.d) with a film thickness of 0.25 μm. Elution was carried out at the initial column temperature of 180°C and programmed at 5°C min⁻¹ to 260°C. Detection was by FID or ECD. Symmetrical peaks with base line separation were obtained with the metal chelates of copper(II), nickel(II), cobalt(III), manganese(II) and chromium(III). The ECD gave better sensitivity than the FID with a linear calibration range of 5–50 μg mL⁻¹ and detection limits 2.0–6.0 μg mL⁻¹, corresponding to 111–333 pg of metal ion reaching the detector. The method was applied to the determination of metal ions in water and pharmaceutical preparations with a coefficient of variation (CV) within 4.0%. When compared with a standard flame AAS method the results revealed no significant difference.     

The thermal decomposition of the 5,7-dihalo-8-quinolinol rare earth metal chelates

The thermal decomposition of the 5,7-dichloro-, 5,7-dibromo- and 5,7-duodo-8-quinohnol chelates of lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium and yttrium was investigated on the thermobalance. The chelates decomposed in the temperature range from 65 to 125°C while the oxide levels were obtained from 395 to 805°C Although the chelate thermal stability temperatures varied little with the chelating agent, the minimum oxide level temperatures were largely dependent on the halogen substitution on the 8-quinolinol molecule. Results of this study were correlated with previous studies on the rare earth metal chclatcs with 8-quinolinol and 2-methyl-8-quinolinol.

A modern technique for preparation of zinc(II) and nickel(II) nanometric oxides using Schiff base compounds: synthesis,characterization, and antibacterial properties

The purpose of the work reported in this paper was the preparation and characterization of Zn(II) and Ni(II) nanometric oxides by using a simple Schiff compound as precursor for complexation then thermal degradation at 600 °C. Metal complexes [Ni(L)₂(Cl)₂] and [Zn(L)₂](NO₃)₂, where L is the Schiff base formed by condensation of 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde with phenylhydrazine, were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis and by magnetic and spectroscopic measurements (infrared, Raman, X-ray powder diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy). Elemental analysis of the chelates suggests the stoichiometry is 1:2 (metal–ligand). Infrared spectra of the complexes are indicative of coordination of the nitrogen of the phenylhydrazine (–Ph–NH–) group and the sulfur atom of the thiophene ring with the central metal atom. Magnetic susceptibility data and electronic and ESR spectra suggest a distorted octahedral structure for the Ni(II) complex and tetrahedral geometry for the Zn(II) complex. The Schiff base and its metal chelates were screened for in-vitro activity against four bacteria, two Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) and two Gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa), and two strains of fungus (Aspergillus flavus and Candida albicans). The metal chelates were shown to have greater antibacterial activity than the free Schiff-base chelate.     

High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of nickel,copper and zinc as their tetraphenylporphine chelates

Nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II) ions are extracted from an aqueous solution into carbon tetrachloride as their diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) chelates. The extract, after removal of the solvent, is treated with meso-tetraphenylporphine (TPP) in benzyl alcohol at 140°C for 60 min. Quantitative conversion of the DDC chelate to the TPP chelate is obtained over the range 0.25–4.5 μg of each metal by use of 3 μgmol of TPP. The reaction mixture is analysed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with spectrophotometric detection at 412 nm. Simultaneous determination of Cu and Zn in NBS bovine liver is possible by this procedure.     

Thermal decomposition of some metal chelates of substituted hydrazopyrazolones

A rough sequence of thermal stability, obtained from the peak maximum temperatures, for the various metal chelates was Hg(II)2(II). The bonding of the ligands to metal ions was investigated by elemental analysis and infrared spectroscopy. The number and relative energies of nitrate combiantion frequencies are discussed in terms of the complexation of para-substituted hydrazopyrazolone with Th(IV) and UO₂(II) metal ions.     

The thermal properties of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) iminodiacetates

The thermal properties of the Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes of iminodiacetic acid (H₂IMDA) were determined using TG, DTG and DSC techniques. The complexes, of general formula, MIMDA-2H₂O evolved water of hydration from 50 to 150°C which was followed by the decomposition of the anhydrous complex in the 250 to 400°C temperature range. The thermal stability, as determined by procedural decomposition temperatures, was: Ni(II) >Co(II) >Cu(II). The thermal stability is discussed in terms of IR spectra, ΔH, and ΔS, as well as thermal data.     

Synthesis,characterization, and biological activity of some transition metal complexes with Schiff base ligands derived from 4-amino-5-phenyl-4<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol and salicaldehyde

Abstract  

The coordination behaviour of a Schiff base with SNO donation sites, derived from condensation of 4-amino-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol and salicaldehyde, towards some bi- and trivalent metal ions, namely Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II) (Cl, ClO₄), Ni(II) (Cl, ClO₄), Cu(II), and Zn(II), is reported. The metal complexes were characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR, solid reflectance, magnetic moment, molar conductance, and thermal analyses (TG, DTG, and DTA). The ionization constant of the Schiff base under investigation and the stability constants of its metal chelates were calculated pH-metrically at 25 °C and ionic strength μ = 0.1 M in 50% (v/v) ethanol–water mixture. The chelates were found to have octahedral (Mn(II)), trigonal bipyramidal (Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II)), and tetrahedral (Cr(III), Fe(III), and Cu(II)) structures. The ligand and its binary chelates were subjected to thermal analyses and the different thermodynamic activation parameters were calculated from their corresponding DTG curves to throw more light on the nature of changes accompanying the thermal decomposition process of these compounds. The free Schiff base ligand and its metal complexes were tested in vitro against Aspergillus flavus, Candida albicans, C. tropicalis, and A. niger fungi and Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli bacteria in order to assess their antimicrobial potential. The results indicate that the ligand and its metal complexes possess antimicrobial properties.     

Resacetophenone oxime–formaldehyde resin and its metal chelates. III

In this paper the synthesis and properties of resacetophenone oxime–formaldehyde resin are described. The number-average molecular weights of the resin determined by vapor-pressure osmometry and nonaqueous conductometric titration are 2200 ± 10% and 2500 g/mol, respectively. Cu(II), Ni(II), and Co(II) chelates of the resin were prepared. Elemental analysis of the chelates indicates a metal to ligand ratio of 1:2. The diffuse reflectance spectra and magnetic moments of Ni(II) and Co(II) chelates show tetrahedral structure, whereas Cu(II) chelate shows a square planar structure. Infrared spectral studies show that the metals are coordinated through the nitrogen of the oximino group and oxygen of the phenolic group. The presence of methylene bridges is also indicated by IR spectral studies. The thermal behavior of the resin and its metal chelates are also discussed.     

Synthesis,structural identification,DNA interaction and biological studies of divalent Mn,Co and Ni chelates of 3-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole azo ligand

New Mn (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) azo chelates of 3-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole have been designed and obtained. The structures of these newly isolated complexes were assigned according to elemental, thermal analyses, spectral measurements, conductivity and magnetic moment. The metal complexes were predicted to be not electrolytic from the measured molar conductance values. The magnetic moment and UV–Vis spectral data denoted the formation of octahedral geometries for Mn (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) complexes. Thermal properties and decomposition kinetics of the metal chelates are investigated using Coats-Redfern method. The kinetic parameters like activation energy (E^*), pre-exponential factor (A) and entropy of activation (ΔS^*) were quantified. The geometry of the metal complexes is optimized with the help of molecular modeling. The interaction of metal chelates with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was evaluated via UV–Vis absorption and viscosity measurements. The obtained data elucidated that the Ni (II) chelate interact with DNA by groove binding while partial intercalative binding mode have been predicted for Mn (II) and Co (II) chelates. The estimated binding constants for the DNA-complexes are 3.85 ± 0.03 × 10⁴, 1.03 ± 0.2 × 10⁵ and 2.81 ± 0.02 × 10⁵ M⁻¹, for Mn (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) azo chelates, successively. Also, the synthesized complexes were tested for their in-vitro antimicrobial and anticancer efficacy.     

Chelating behavior, thermal studies and biocidal efficiency of tioconazole and its complexes with some transition metal ions

New seven metal complexes of tioconazole drug with the general formulae [MCl₂(L)₂(H₂O)_x].yH₂O (where, x = 0 and y = 1 for M = Mn(II) or x = 2, y = 2 for M = Co(II)), and x = 0, y = 3 for M = Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II)) and [MCl₂(L)₂(H₂O)₂]Cl.3H₂O (where M = Cr(III) and Fe(III)) have been prepared and characterized based on elemental analyses, IR, magnetic moment, molar conductance, and thermal analyses techniques. From molar conductance data bivalent metal chelates are non-electrolytes while Cr(III) and Fe(III) chelates are electrolytes and of 1:1 type. According to the IR spectral data, TCNZ is coordinated to the metal ions in a neutral unidentate manner with N donor site of the imidazole–N. All the complexes are octahedral except Mn(II) complex has tetrahedral structure. TCNZ drug and its metal complexes were also screened for their biological activity.

Spectrophotometric Studies of Nickel(II) and Copper(II) Chelates of p-(2-Hydroxy-1-Naphthylazo)-Benzenesulphonate

The ionization constant of p-(2-hydroxy-1-naphthylazo)benzene-sulphonate (Orange II) and the formation constants of the metal chelates of this reagent with Ni(II) and Cu(II) have been determined spectrophotometrically in aqueous solution at 25° and at an ionic strength of 0.10M. The ionization constant of orange II was found to be pK_a=10.95. Formation of orange II chelates with Ni(II) and Cu(II) was pH dependent, and the optimum pH range of the Ni(II) Chelate was at pH 9.2-9.4, and Cu(II) chelate at 9.5-9.7, respectively. The mole ratio of orange II to both of metal ions was found to be 2 to 1 stoichiometry. The formation constants (logK) of the Ni(II) and Cu(II) chelates were 12.50 and 16.11, respectively. The molar extinction coefficients and the photometric sensitivities of these chelates were determined.     

Mass spectrometric study of the overheated vapor over Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) N,N′-ethylenebis(acetylacetoniminato) complexes

A mass spectrometric study of the overheated vapor over the complexes Ni(acacen), Cu(acacen), and Zn(acacen) (H₂acacen = N,N′-ethylenebis(acetylacetonimine)) has been carried out in the temperature range of 180–760°C. Irrespective of the degree of overheating, the vapor phases over all of these compounds contain no ions heavier than the molecular ion [MO₂N₂C₁₂H₁₈]⁺. The existence of molecular ions in the overheated vapor in the double-chamber two-temperature effusion cell is evidence of the high thermal stability of the complexes. The onset temperature of the thermal decomposition of Ni(acacen), Cu(acacen), and Zn(acacen) is 690, 610, and 560°C, respectively. The way of fragmentation of the chelates under electron impact ionization depends on the nature of the metal.     

Fractional sublimation of the β-diketone chelates of the lanthanide and related elements

Various β-diketone chelates of Sc(III), Y(III), Th(IV), U(IV). U(VI), Zr(IV) and the lanthanides have been prepared, characterized and investigated to determine if they were volatile and stable. The ligands employed were acetylacetone(AA), trifluoroacetylacetone(TFAA), hexafluoroacetylacetone(HFAA), and dipivaloyl-methane(DPM). The chelates were sublimed in a fractional vacuum sublimator and the recrystallization temperature zones recorded for individual chelates. None of the lanthanide acetylacetonates arc volatile but the Sc(III), Th(IV), U(IV) and dioxouranium(VI) acetylacetonates are thermally stable and quite volatile below 150° at 1 mm mercury pressure. The lanthanide, Sc(III), Y(III), and dioxouranium(VI) trifluoroacetylacetonates are volatile and can be vacuum-sublimed below 150°, but are thermally unstable; only the Th(IV) chelate is sufficiently stable to be quantitatively recovered by sublimation. The Sc(III), Y(III), Th(IV), and lanthanide hexafluoroacetylacetonates are thermally stable and easily sublimed below 125° in vacua or at atmospheric pressure. All the dipivaloylmethanates studied were thermally stable and volatile and could be quantitatively recovered by vacuum sublimation below 140°.The volatility of the HFAA and DPM lanthanide chelates increased with an increase in atomic weight (a decrease in ionic radii) of the lanthanides. The lack of volatility observed for the lanthanide AA and TFAA chelates is attributed to the fact that only hydrates of the chelates were formed, which decomposed at elevated temperatures in vacuo to form basic polymeric compounds.Separations are proposed for numerous binary mixtures of the β-diketone chelates of the lanthanide and related elements. Recrystallization temperature zones are given for the following binary mixtures which were quantitatively resolved by the fractional sublimation technique; 118-88° for Nd(DPM)₃ and 84-48° for Tm(DPM)₃; 72-49° for Sc(DPM) and 120-88° for Pr(DPM); 128-79° for La(DPM)₃ and 79-47° for Yb(DPM)₃; 70-47° for Th(TFAA)₄ and 116-96° for Gd(TFAA)₃; 52-42° for Th(HFAA)₄ and 120-80° for La(HFAA)₃.     

Thermal degradation behaviour of some metal chelate polymer compounds with bis(bidentate) ligand by TG/DTG/DTA

Seven novel divalent transitional metal chelate polymers compounds (commonly known as chelate compounds or metal coordination complexes or polymer complexes) have been characterized by thermogravimetry (TG), differential thermal gravimetry (DTG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) methods. Thermal decomposition behaviour of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II) polymers with terphthaoyl-bis(p-methoxyphenylcarbamide) has been investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at heating rate 10 °C min^?1 under nitrogen atmosphere. TG/DTA of chelate compounds were shown to be a stable compound against thermal decomposition which was measured on the basis of final decomposing temperature, but it is observed in some curves that decomposition takes place at low temperature due to the lattice water, which is always placed at outer coordination sphere of the central metal ion. The presence of both lattice and coordinated water were noteworthy investigated in Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) chelate polymer compounds, whereas lattice water found in Zn(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II). However, Mn(II) showed only coordinated water. Thermal stabilities for release of lattice water, coordinated water and organic moiety that occur in sequential decomposition of chelate compounds are explained on the basis of ionic size effect and electronegativity. The processes of thermal degradation taking place in seven chelate polymers were studied comparatively by TG/DTG/DTA curves which indicating the difference in the thermal decomposition. Coats–Redfern integral method is used to determine the kinetic parameters for the successive steps in the decomposition sequence of TG curves. Scanning electron microscope images of some chelate polymers were shown in previous publication revealed that particle sizes of chelate polymers were found to be of nanomaterial level therefore, resulting chelate compounds might be called as nanomaterial.     

Structure and behavior of organic analytical reagents : Heats and entropies of formation of several divalent metal chelates of 2- and 4-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline1

The Calvin-Bjerrum titration technique for the determination of chelate formation constants has been applied to the Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Mn(II) chelates of 2- and 4-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline. Measurements were made at several temperatures in order to evaluate ΔH and ΔS values of chelation. The results obtained were interpreted in terms of steric hindrance of the 2-methyl group. In all cases the heats of formation of the chelates of 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline were remarkably morepositive than those for the corresponding chelates of 4-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline. This large difference in the strengths of the metal-chelate bonds is apparently due to the hindrance of the methyl groups which prevent the close grouping of the two reagent molecules around the metal in chelates of 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline. The lower bond strength in chelates of 2-methyl-8-hydroxy-quinoline is partially compensated by a relatively larger entropy of formation. This is attributed to decreased solvent chelate interaction caused by the shielding of the polar O, N, and metal atoms by the 2-methyl groups. The determination of chelate fortmation constants of 2-phenyl-8-hydroxyqumoline has been carried out to further extend our study of steric effects in metal chelates.     

Synthesis,characterization, and thermal study of solid-state alkaline earth metal mandelates,except beryllium and radium

Characterization, thermal stability, and thermal decomposition of alkaline earth metal mandelates, M(C₆H₅CH(OH)CO₂)₂, (M = Mg(II), Ca(II), Sr(II), and Ba(II)), were investigated employing simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis or differential scanning calorimetry, (TG–DTA or TG–DSC), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), complexometry, and TG–DSC coupled to FTIR. All the compounds were obtained in the anhydrous state and the thermal decomposition occurs in three steps. The final residue up to 585 °C (Mg), 720 °C (Ca), and 945 °C (Sr) is the respective oxide MgO, CaO, and SrO. For the barium compound the final residue up to 580 °C is BaCO₃, which is stable until 950 °C and above this temperature the TG curve shows the beginning of the thermal decomposition of the barium carbonate. The results also provide information concerning the thermal behavior and identification of gaseous products evolved during the thermal decomposition of these compounds.
