Synthesis,structure, and solvent-extraction properties of tridentate oxime ligands and their cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) complexes

Synthesis of four different types of ligands Ar[COC(NOH)R] _n (Ar = biphenyl, n = 1, HL¹; Ar = biphenyl, n = 2, H₂L²; Ar = diphenylmethane, n = 1, HL³; Ar = diphenylmethane, n = 2, H₂L⁴; R = furfurylamine in all ligands) and their dinuclear Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Zn²⁺ complexes is reported herein. These compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, ICP-OES, FT-IR spectra, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The ligands were further characterized by ¹H NMR. The results suggest that dinuclear complexes of HL¹ and HL³ have a metal to ligand mole ratio of 2: 2 and dinuclear complexes H₂L² and H₂L⁴ have a metal to ligand mole ratio of 2: 1. Square pyramidal or octahedral structures are proposed for complexes of oxime ligands. Furthermore, extraction abilities of the four ligands were also evaluated in chloroform using selected transition metal picrates such as Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, Pb²⁺. The ligands show strong binding ability towards Hg²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions.     

Spectrophotometric and conductometric studies of the thermodynamics complexation of Zn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Pb2+ and Cu2+ ions with 1,13-bis(8-quinolyl)-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane ligand in acetonitrile solution

The complexation reaction between 1,13-bis(8-quinolyl)-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane ligand (Kryptofix5) and Zn²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions were studied conductometrically in acetonitrile solution. The formation constants of the resulting 1:1 complexes were calculated from the computer fitting of the molar conductance and absorbance measurements in various mole ratios. The enthalpy and entropy changes of the complexation reactions were derived from titration conductometry in acetonitrile at various temperatures. At 25 °C, the stability of the resulting complexes varied in the order Pb²⁺ > Zn²⁺ > Cu²⁺> Co²⁺> Ni²⁺.     

Synthesis and Applications of a New Polysiloxane-Immobilized Macrocyclic Ligand System

Abstract

Insoluble porous solid, macrocyclic 22-membered ring, 1-oxa-6,9,12,15,18-pentaaza-2,22-disilacyclododocosane polysiloxane ligand system has been prepared by the reaction of a macro-silane agent with tetraethylorthosilicate. The macro-silane agent was prepared by the reaction of imino-bis(N-2-aminoethylacetamide) ligand with 3-iodopropyltrimethoxysilane in 1:3 molar ratio. The new prepared polysiloxane system exhibits variable potentials for the extraction of metal ions (Fe³⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Ag⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, and Pb²⁺) from aqueous solutions. The ligand system shows high capacity to extract silver, lead, and mercury. Chemisorption of the metal ions by the ligand system at the optimum conditions was found in the order Ag ⁺ > Pb²⁺ > Hg²⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Ni²⁺ > Fe³⁺ > Co²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Zn²⁺.     

A SPECTRAL STUDY OF Cu2+ AND Cd2+ WITH A SUBSTITUTED PYRAZINE LIGAND

Abstract

We wish to report a novel ligand that forms an intense blue to purple color when complexed with various non-transition as well as transition metals. This color appears when Cd²⁺, Zn²⁺, Ag¹⁺, Mg²⁺ Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cu²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, or Mn²⁺ is added to N,N′-bis(4-N″,N″-dimethylanilinyl)-2,5-bis(methylenimino)pyrazine (Figure 1) which is dissolved in dimethylformamide (DMF). The ligand is capable of being multidentate; therefore, spectro-photometric titration experiments were performed using Cd²⁺ in one experiment and Cu²⁺ in another experiment. If these ions can be considered as being representative of the non-transition and transition complexes respectively, then the stoichiometry is 1:1 and 2:1 (metal:ligand). Whether this sampling is truly representative is under further investigation.     

KINETICS OF FORMATION AND STABILITY CONSTANTS OF MONO AND BIS l-TYROSINE COMPLEXES OF Cu(II), Co(II), AND Ni(II)

Abstract

The kinetics and stability constants of l-tyrosine complexation with copper(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) have been studied in aqueous solution at 25° and ionic strength 0.1 M. The reactions are of the type M(HL)^(3-n)+ _n-1 + HL- ? M(HL)^(2-n)+_n(k_n, forward rate constant; k_-n, reverse rate constant); where M=Cu, Co or Ni, HL^? refers to the anionic form of the ligand in which the hydroxyl group is protonated, and n=1 or 2. The stability constants (K_n=k_n/k_-n) of the mono and bis complexes of Cu²⁺, Co²⁺ and Ni²⁺ with l-tyrosine, determined by potentiometric pH titration are: Cu²⁺, log K₁=7.90 ± 0.02, log K₂=7.27 ± 0.03; Co²⁺, log K₁=4.05 ± 0.02, log K₂=3.78 ± 0.04; Ni²⁺, log K₁=5.14 ± 0.02, log K₂=4.41 ± 0.01. Kinetic measurements were made using the temperature-jump relaxation technique. The rate constants are: Cu²⁺, k₁=(1.1 ± 0.1) × 10⁹ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-1=(14 ± 3) sec^?1, k₂=(3.1 ± 0.6) × 10⁸ M ^?1 sec^?1, k^?2=(16 ± 4) sec^?1; Co²⁺, k₁=(1.3 ± 0.2) × 10⁶ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-1=(1.1 ± 0.2) × 10² sec^?1, k₂=(1.5 ± 0.2) × 10⁶ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-2=(2.5 ± 0.6) × 10² sec^?1; Ni²⁺, k₁=(1.4 ± 0.2) × 10⁴ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-1=(0.10 ± 0.02) sec^?1, k₂=(2.4 ± 0.3) × 10⁴ M ^?1 sec^?1, k_-2=(0.94 ± 0.17) sec^?1. It is concluded that l-tyrosine substitution reactions are normal. The presence of the phenyl hydroxyl group in l-tyrosine has no primary detectable influence on the forward rate constant, while its influence on the reverse rate constant is partially attributed to substituent effects on the basicity of the amine terminus.     

Spectroscopic studies of water-soluble superstructured iron(III) porphyrin. Interaction with the bovine serum albumin protein

Abstract

Acid-base equilibrium of the “one-face”-hindered sulfonated porphyrin, α5,15-[2,2′(dodecamethyleneoxy),(5-sulfonato)diphenyl]-10,20-bis(2-hydroxy,5-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrinato iron(III), has been studied by paramagnetic ¹H NMR. The isotropically shifted signals change in a fast exchange regime on the NMR time-scale. ¹H longitudinal relaxation times and temperature dependence of the chemical shifts were measured and analyzed. The electronic structure of hydroxo specie is characteristic of a six- or five-coordinate high-spin iron(III) porphyrin with an S = 5/2 ground state. The ¹H NMR titration allowed determination of the acidity constant, pK_a 6.2 (0.1 M KNO₃, 25 °C). In addition, we also report the interaction between the monohydroxo iron(III) porphyrin and the bovine serum albumin protein. From a ¹H NMR titration, we have determined the affinity apparent constant, log K_ap 3.2 (pH 7, KNO₃ 0.1 M, 25 °C). The formation of superstructured iron porphyrin-albumin protein adduct was confirmed by electronic absorption spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance.     

Synthesis and extraction studies of polymeric phthalimido functionalized calix[4]arene

The article comprises synthesis and extraction studies of polymeric calix[4]arene having phthalimide groups at the lower rim. The polymeric phthalimido functionalized calix[4]arene was synthesized via radical initiated reactions involving a vinylic monomer 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25-[4-(acrylamido)benzyloxy]-26,28-bis-(2-phthalimido-ethoxy)-27-hydroxycalix[4]arene (5) with styrene. A five atom spacer group was incorporated between the bulky calixarene core and the acrylate moiety in order to minimize steric interactions which proved to impede the polymerization. From the liquid–liquid and solid–liquid extraction studies it has been concluded that the precursor 3 (5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl-25-(4-nitro benzyloxy)-26,28-bis-(3-phthalimidoethoxy)-27-hydroxy-calix[4]arene) is selective for metal cations. The order of extractability of metal cations by the ligand 3 decreases in the sequence: Hg²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Cu²⁺ > K⁺ > Co²⁺ whereas its polymeric derivative is selective in the sequence: Hg²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > K⁺ > Co²⁺ > Cu²⁺ for the metal cations used in the experiments.

In all compounds the coordination polyhedron of the metal atom is a distorted octahedron. The molecular and crystal structures of compound I, [Co₃L₆(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₆ · 8C₂H₅OH (IIIa), and [Ni₃L₆(H₂O)₆](ClO₄)₆ · 8C₂H₅OH (IVa) are determined.     

Synthesis and characterization of a new macrocyclic Schiff base derived from 2,6-diaminopyridine and 1,10-bis(2-formylphenyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraoxadecane and its Cu(II), Ni(II), Pb(II), Co(III) and La(III) complexes

A new macrocyclic ligand, 1,3,5-triaza-2,4:7,8:19,20-tribenzo-9,12,15,18-tetraoxacyclounkosa-1,5-diene (L) was synthesized by reaction of 2,6-diaminopyridine and 1,10-bis(2-formylphenyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraoxadecane. Then, its Cu^II, Ni^II, Pb^II, Co^III and La^III complexes were synthesized by the template effect by reaction of 2,6-diaminopyridine and 1,10-bis(2-formylphenyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraoxadecane and Cu(NO₃)₂· 3H₂O, Ni(NO₃)₂· 6H₂O, Pb(NO₃)₂, Co(NO₃)₂· 6H₂O, La(NO₃)₃·6H₂O respectively.

Study of protonation and Zn(II), Cd(II), Cu(II) and Mn(II) complexation with a glutamic acid N-pyrimidine derivative: Crystal structure of a neutral Cd(II) complex of the bianionic ligand

The compound N-(4-amino-1-methyl-5-nitroso-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-2-yl)-(s)-glutamic acid (H₃L) was synthesised and structurally characterised by analytical methods and ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopy. This compound (H₃L) shows the same topology as other model receptors previously used to develop chemical functionalization at the surface of an active carbon when they adsorb on it. Protonation of H₃L and its coordination ability towards Cd²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Mn²⁺ ions in water solution was also studied by potentiometric methods, UV–Vis and ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectroscopies. The obtained results allow us to fit the operative conditions for the use of the activated carbon–H₃L adsorbent for the retaining of the above-mentioned metal ions in aqueous solutions. The molecular structure of {[Cd(HL)H₂O] · 3H₂O}_n was solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and DNA interaction studies of a 2D cadmium(II) coordination polymer constructed from 2-(2-pyridyl)benzimidazole

Its in vitro cytotoxicity towards four selected tumour cell lines has been evaluated by an microculture tetrozolium assay, the results suggest that complex 1 displays greater inhibition than the free benzimidazole ligand. On the basis of the combination of absorption titration and fluorescence emission titration, the binding mode of complex 1 to calf thymus DNA has been investigated. Complex 1 can interact with the base pairs of double-helical DNA via the combined mode of intercalation and groove binding with larger binding constants.

Ion-pair extraction of transition metal cations from aqueous media using novel N2O2-macrocyclic crown ligands

Three new macrocyclic crown ether ligands containing nitrogen–oxygen donor atoms were designed and synthesized from 1,4-bis(2′-formylphenyl)-1,4-dioxabutane and 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine. Ion-pair extraction of metal picrates such as Ag⁺, Hg²⁺, Cd²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, and Pb²⁺ from aqueous phase to the organic phase was carried out using the novel ligands. The solvent effect over the metal picrate extractions was investigated at 25 ± 0.1 °C by using UV–visible spectrometry. The extractability and the values of the extraction constants (log K_ex) were determined for the extracted complexes.     

Kinetics study of selective removal of lead(II) in an aqueous solution containing lead(II), copper(II) and cadmium(II) across bulk liquid membrane

Transport of Pb(II) ion from equimolar aqueous solutions of Pb(II), Cu(II) and Cd(II) as well as from aqueous solutions containing only Pb(II) source phase (C_metal = 1.0 × 10^?4 mol L^?1) through bulk liquid membranes containing crown ether and oleic acid as carrier has been investigated. The initial fluxes of transported metal ions depend on the hydrophile–lipophile balance (HLB) and molar volumes (Vx) of crown ethers. The initial fluxes of Pb(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II) decrease with increase of HLB value for azacrown ether, i.e., tetraaza-14-crown-4 (A₄14C4), L1 > benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5), L2 > 4′-Aminobenzo-15C5, L3 > nitrobenzo-15-crown-5 (NB15C5), L4. The selectivity of the metal ions showed the following separation factors (SF): SF_Pb–Cu = 2.15, SF_Cu–Cd = 2.10, SF_Pb–Cd = 4.52. The highest transport recovery for Pb(II) was observed for L1 (99.3 %).     

1:1 Metal Complexes of Bivalent Cobalt,Nickel, Copper,Zink, and Cadmium with the Tripodal Ligand tris[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine: Their stabilities and the X-ray crystal structure of its copper(II) complex sulfate

The complex formation by Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺ with tris[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine (N(CH₂CH₂NMe₂)₃, Me₆tren) was investigated at 25° and at an ionic strength of 1, using VIS spectroscopy and potentiometric measurements. The stability constants of these complexes are compared with those of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (N(CH₂CH₂NH₂)₃, tren), obtained under the same conditions. The values of the constants for Me₆tren are much lower than those for tren, due to the bulky Me substituents. The values of the constants can be correlated with the ability of the individual metal ions to adopt coordination number 5. This appears to be easier for Cu²⁺ and Co²⁺ than for Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺ and is very difficult for Ni²⁺. The 1:1 complexes [ML(H₂O)]²⁺ are monoprotonic acids whose pK_s values are similar or lower than those of the corresponding aquametal ions. The X-ray crystal structure of the copper(II) complex [Cu(SO₄)(Me₆tren)] · 8H₂O reveals pentacoordination at the central ion. The UV/VIS spectra of the aqueous solutions of the Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺ 1:1 complexes confirm that the same coordination number is present also in these complexes.     

N-Phthaloylglycinate ternary complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) metal ions and aromatic mono,bi and tridentate amines

Complexes of N-phthaloylglycinate (N-phthgly) and Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, Zn^II and Cd^II containing imidazole (imi), N-methylimidazole (mimi), 2,2-bipyridyl (bipy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), and tridentate amines such as 2,2,2-terpyridine (terpy) and 2,4,6-(2-pyridyl)s-triazine (tptz), were prepared and characterized by conventional methods, i.r. spectra and by thermogravimetric analysis. For imi and mimi ternary complexes, the general formula [M(imi/mimi)₂(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II applies. For Cd^II ternary complexes with imi, [Cd(imi)₃(N-phthgly)₂]·2H₂O applies. For the bi and tridentate ligands, ternary complexes of the formula [M(L)(N-phthgly)₂]·nH₂O were obtained, where M = Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Zn^II; L = bipy, phen, tptz and terpy. In all complexes, N-phthgly acts as a monodentate ligand, coordinating metal ions through the carboxylate oxygen, except for the ternary complexes of Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II with mimi and Cu^II and Zn^II with imi, where the N-phthgly acts as a bidentate ligand, coordinating the metal ions through both carboxylate oxygen atoms.     

Structural studies on cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) complexes of 1-malonyl-bis(4-phenylthiosemicarbazide)

Summary Several new complexes of the title ligand (H₂MPTS) with Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II, and Cd^II have been prepared. Structural assignments of the complexes have been made based on elemental analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic moment and spectral (i.r.,¹H n.m.r., reflectance) studies. The compounds are non-conductors in dimethylsulphoxide. The neutral molecule is coordinated to the metal(II) sulphate as a bidentate ligandvia the two carbonyl groups. The ligand reacts with the metal(II) chlorides with the liberation of two hydrogen ions, behaving as a bianionic quadridentate (NONO) donor. Enolization is confirmed by the pH-titration of H₂ MPTS and its metal(II) complexes against NaOH. A distorted octahedral structure is proposed for the Cu^II complex, while a square planar structure is suggested for both Co^II and Ni^II complexes. The stoichiometry of the complexes formed in EtOH and buffer solutions, their apparent formation constants and the ranges for obedience to Beer's law are reported for Co^II, Ni^II and Cu^II ions. The ligand pK values are calculated. The antimicrobial activity of H₂ MPTS and its Co^II, Ni^II, Cu^II and Mn^II complexes is demonstrated.     

Competitive 7Li NMR Study on the Mn2+, Zn2+ and Cd2+ Complexes of Two New Branched Hexadentate (N6) Amines Containing the Pyridine Moiety in Nitromethane and Acetonitrile Solutions

Lithium-7 NMR spectroscopy was used to investigate the stoichiometry and stability of a Li⁺ complex with two new branched amines, 4,7-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-4,7-diazadecane-1,10-diamine (L¹) and 4,8-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-4,8-diazaundecane-1,11-diamine (L²), in acetonitrile and nitromethane. A competitive ⁷Li NMR method was also employed to probe the complexation of Mn²⁺, Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions with L¹ and L² in the same solvent systems. The formation constants of the resulting complexes were evaluated from computer fitting of the mole ratio data with an equation that relates the observed chemical shifts to the formation constant. In both solvents, the stability of the resulting 1:1 complexes was found to vary in the order Cd²⁺ > Zn²⁺ > Mn²⁺ > Li⁺.     

Die Chelate von Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) und Cd(II) mit Malonsäurehydrazid und dessen Arylidenderivaten

The metal chelates formed by the reaction of Co²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺ with malonic hydrazide and its arylidene derivatives are investigated. The i.r.-absorption spectra of the solid compounds supported the tetradentate character of these compounds; they also show that the ligand still attained the keto form. The shift of the C=O, C=N bands is utilized in determining the coordination bond length. The stoichiometry of the metal complexes, as studied by spectrophotometric and conductometric methods, is found to be metal ion: ligand =11. The apparent formation constants of the malonic hydrazide complexes are also determined.

Spectroscopic Characterization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N-bis</Emphasis>(2-{[(2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-Dioxolan-4-yl)Methyl]Amino}Ethyl) N′,N′-Dihydroxyethanediimidamide and Its Complexes

A new dioxime ligand, N,N-bis(2-{[(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]amino} ethyl)N′,N′-dihydroxyethanediimidamide (H₂L), and its mononuclear complexes with Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ are synthesized. H₂L forms transition metal complexes [Co(LH)₂(H₂O)₂] and [M(LH)₂] (M = Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺) with a metal : ligand ratio of 1 : 2. Complexes [M(H₂L)(Cl)₂] (Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺) have a metal : ligand ratio of 1 : 1. The mononuclear Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺ complexes indicate that the metal ions coordinate ligand through its two N atoms, as the most of dioximes. In the Co²⁺ complex, two water molecules and in the Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ complexes two chloride ions are also coordinated to the metal ion. The structures of these compounds are identified by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, conductivity, and thermogravimetric analysis.__________From Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 31, No. 7, 2005, pp. 540–544.Original English Text Copyright © 2005 by Canpolat, Kaya.The text was submitted by the authors in English.
