Complexation and thermodynamic studies of oxathiadibenzocrown ethers with Cu2+, Pb2+, Zn2+ and Cd2+ ions

A thermodynamic study of the complexation of Cu²⁺, Pb²⁺, Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions with 1 and 2 in acetonitrile has been carried out. The study was conducted in the temperature range 283–308 K using a conductometric technique. The observed molar conductivity, Λ, was found to decrease significantly for mole ratios [L]_t/[M]_t less than unity in all cases. A model involving 1:1 stoichiometry has been used to analyze the conductivity data. The stability constant, K, for each 1:1 complex was determined from the conductivity data by using a nonlinear least-squares curve fitting procedure. The results show that compound 1 has no peak selectivity for any of the metal cations, while compound 2 selectively associates with Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺. Complexes of 1 have the following stability order Pb²⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Zn²⁺ > Cd²⁺  and Pb²⁺ > Cu²⁺ for the complexes of 2. The ?H° and ?S° values for the complexation process were obtained from the slope and intercept of the Van’t Hoff plots respectively. All ?G° values were negative and were determined from the Gibbs–Helmholtz equation and the significance of these values is discussed.     

Complexation of Ag+ ions with L-cysteine

The complexation of Ag⁺ ions with L-cysteine anions (Cys^2?) at 25°C was studied potentiometrically against the background of 0.1 M KNO₃. The AgCys^? (log?? = 11.14 ± 0.10), AgHCys (log?? = 20.77 ± 0.06), Ag₂Cys (log?? = 20.32 ± 0.17), and Ag₂HCys⁺ (log?? = 27.28 ± 0.12) soluble complexes were found to be formed.     

Heavy metal (Cd2+, Ni2+, Pb2+ and Ni2+) adsorption in aqueous solutions by oxidized starches

Superabsorbent materials based on natural products have been synthesized by free radical oxidation of corn starch using a redox system consisting of potassium permanganate and sodium bisulfite. The resulting oxidized starches were characterized by analyzing the variation of carbonyl and carboxyl contents. The swelling ability of these samples has been determined by gravimetric method in water and in saline solutions. The effect of oxidant concentration and bleaching procedure on the water absorption capacity has been studied. The ability to remove heavy metals in water solution has been tested against Cd²⁺, Ni²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Zn²⁺ ions, showing higher percentage of remotion for the unbleached oxidized starches, in particular against nickel ions.

Complexation of nicotinamide with Ag+ ions in water-organic solvents

The effect of the water-ethanol and water-DMSO solvent composition on the stability of nicotinamide (NicNH₂) complexes with Ag⁺ ions at an ionic strength of 0.25 (NaClO₄) and a temperature of 25 ± 0.1°C is studied by potentiometric titration. An increase in the EtOH concentration in the mixed solvent is found to result in a higher stability of the nicotinamide complex with silver(I) ions; as the DMSO concentration increases, the complex becomes less stable. The results of the study are analyzed in terms of the solvation thermodynamic approach taking into account the electronic structure of the ligand and the solvation contributions of the fragments of the molecule.

Complex Formation of 1,10-Dibenzyl-1,10-diaza-18-crown-6 with Ni2+, Cu2+, Ag+ and Cd2+ Metal Cations in Acetonitrile–dimethylformamide Binary Solutions

Conductance measurements are reported for nickel(II), cupper(II), silver(I) and cadmium(II), salts in acetonitrile (AN)–dimethylformamide (DMF) binary solvents containing macrocyclic ligand, 1,10-dibenzyl-1,10-diaza-18-crown-6 (DBDA18C6) at different temperatures. The changes in molar conductance caused by addition of DBDA18C6 to solutions were analyzed by non-linear least squares to give stability constants of 1:1 metal cation–DBDA18C6 complexes. The results show that the stabilities of the complexes are sensitive to solvent composition and in some cases the sequence of stabilities is changed with changing the composition of the mixed solvents. The values of thermodynamic quantities (ΔH°c and ΔS°c) for formation of DBDA18C6-Ni²⁺, DBDA18C6-Cu²⁺, DBDA18C6-Ag⁺ and DBDA18C6-Cd²⁺ complexes were obtained from temperature dependence of the stability constants and the results show that the values of ΔH°c and ΔS°c for these complexes are sensitive to the nature and composition of AN–DMF binary solutions, but they do not vary monotonically with the solvent composition.     

Isotherm sorption of Cd2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ onto high-yield kraft fibers

The sorption capacity of high-yield kraft fibers for Cd2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ increased with pH and concentration of the cations in the liquid phase. Within the concentration range for the experiments, which was less than 2 mM, the experimental results fitted the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Sips models with regression coefficient greater than 0.97. Of the three cations investigated, Ni2+ had the highest sorption affinity, followed by Cd2+ and Co2+. The effect of the hydrated radius on the sorption affinity was discussed. Thermodynamically, the sorption was spontaneous and exothermic in the temperature range 283-308 K.

Competitive adsorption of Pb2+, Cu2+, and Cd2+ ions on microporous titanosilicate ETS-10

In the present study, the competitive adsorption characteristics of binary and ternary heavy metal ions Pb2+, Cu2+, and Cd2+ on microporous titanosilicate ETS-10 were investigated in batch systems. Pure microporous titanosilicate ETS-10 was synthesized with P25 as the Ti source and characterized by the techniques of X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission-scanning electron microscope (FESEM), nitrogen adsorption, and zeta-potential. Equilibrium and kinetic adsorption data showed that ETS-10 displays a high selectivity toward one metal in a two-component or a three-component system with an affinity order of Pb2+ > Cd2+ > Cu2+. The equilibrium behaviors of heavy metals species with stronger affinity toward ETS-10 can be described by the Langmuir equation while the adsorption kinetics of the metals can be well fitted to a pseudo-second-order (PSO) model.     

Conductometric and 1H NMR studies of thermodynamics of complexation of Zn2+, Cd2+ and Pb2+ ions with tetrathia-12-crown-4 in dimethylsulfoxide-nitrobenzene mixtures

The complex formation between Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions with macrocyclic ligand, tetrathia12-crown-4 (12S4) was studied in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)–nitrobenzene binary mixtures at different temperatures using conductometric and ¹H NMR methods. In all cases, 12S4 found to form 1:1 complexes with these cations. The formation constants of the resulting 1:1 complexes in different solvent mixtures were determined by computer fitting of the resulting molar conductance- and chemical shift-mole ratio data. There is an inverse relationship between the complex stability and the amount of DMSO in the solvent mixtures. The stability of the resulting M²⁺-12S4 complexes found to decrease in the order Pb²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Zn²⁺. The values of ?H°, ?S° and ?G° for complexation reactions were evaluated from the temperature dependence of formation constants via van’t Hoff method. The obtained results revealed that, in all cases, the complexes are enthalpy stabilized, but entropy destabilized and the values of ?H° and ?S° are strongly depend on the nature of medium. There is also a linear relationship between all ΔH° and TΔS° values indicating the existence of entropy–enthalpy compensation in complexation of the three cations and ligand in the solvent systems studied.     

Synthesis and study of properties of the polyhexamethyleneguanidine complexes with the ions Cu2+, Zn2+, and Ni2+

The reaction products of polyhexamethyleneguanidine hydrochloride with the Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Ni²⁺ ions, which are the polyligand coordination compounds formed by polyguanidine and hydroxyl ligands, were studied using IR, UV, and ESR spectroscopy. The influence of the nature of the chelating agent on the structure of the complexes formed was revealed. Antibacterial properties of the synthesized complexes were assessed.     

NMR study of the stoichiometry and stability of complexation reaction between Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+ and Ba2+ ions and 60-crown-20 in binary acetonitrile solvent mixtures

Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H-NMR) spectroscopy was used to study the complexation reaction between Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺ ions and 60-crown-20 in a series of binary mixtures of deuterated acetonitrile (AN), nitromethane (NM) and D₂O at 27?°C. Formation constants of the 1:1 complexes were determined through computer fitting of the chemical shift/mol ratio data and found to vary in the order of Ba²⁺?>?Sr²⁺?>?Mg²⁺?≈?Ca²⁺. The influence of the solvent composition on the stability of the resulting complexes was also discussed. In all cases, the changes in the stability constants with the solvent composition were monotonic and showed a good correlation with the inherent solvation ability of the pure solvents which form the mixture.     

Fluorescence quenching of acridinium and 6-methoxyquinolinium ions by Pb2+, Hg2+, Cu2+, Ag+ and hydrogen sulphide

The quenching of the fluorescene of cationic derivatives of 6-methoxyquinoline and acridine by various heavy metal cations and hydrogen sulphide ion have been studied in detail. Stern—Volmer constants were determined and quenching was found to be exclusively dynamic, except for the hydrogen sulphide ion, which acts as both a dynamic and static quencher. The highly efficient static quenching process is interpreted in terms of nucleophilic attack of hydrogen sulphide to the 9-position of acridinium ion, thereby destroying the conjugated system of the fluorophore.     

改性磁性壳聚糖微球对Cu2+、Cd2+和Ni2+的吸附性能

Fe3O4/ chitosan magnetic microspheres of 50 to 80 滋m were prepared using the inverse phase emulsion dispersion and chemical crosslinking technology, and then modified with ethylenediamine for use in the adsorption of heavy metal ions. The adsorption properties of the modified Fe3O4/chitosan toward Cu2+, Cd2+ and Ni2+ were investigated. It was found that the adsorption capacities of Cu2+ and Ni2+ increased with pH, and a maximum adsorption for Cd2+ occurred at pH=3. The saturated adsorption capacities calculated by Langmuir isotherms were 54.3 mg·g-1 for Cu2+, 20.4 mg·g-1 for Cd2+, and 12.4 mg·g-1 for Ni2+, respectively. The adsorption kinetics were well described by pseudo-second-order equation models. The experimental results showed that the Fe3O4/chitosan modified with ethylenediamine presented higher adsorption selectivity for Cu2+ than for Cd2+ and Ni2+ in all studied pH ranges.     

Study of the selection mechanism of heavy metal (Pb2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, and Cd2+) adsorption on clinoptilolite

The study was carried out on the sorption of heavy metals (Ni2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, and Cd2+) under static conditions from single- and multicomponent aqueous solutions by raw and pretreated clinoptilolite. The sorption has an ion-exchange nature and consists of three stages, i.e., the adsorption on the surface of microcrystals, the inversion stage, and the moderate adsorption in the interior of the microcrystal. The finer clinoptilolite fractions sorb higher amounts of the metals due to relative enriching by the zeolite proper and higher cleavage. The slight difference between adsorption capacity of the clinoptilolite toward lead, copper, and cadmium from single- and multicomponent solutions may testify to individual sorption centers of the zeolite for each metal. The decrease of nickel adsorption from multicomponent solutions is probably caused by the propinquity of its sorption forms to the other metals and by competition. The maximum sorption capacity toward Cd2+ is determined as 4.22 mg/g at an initial concentration of 80 mg/L and toward Pb2+, Cu2+, and Ni2+ as 27.7, 25.76, and 13.03 mg/g at 800 mg/L. The sorption results fit well to the Langmuir and the Freundlich models. The second one is better for adsorption modeling at high metal concentrations.
