Effect of tetra-n-alkylammonium bromides on the volumetric properties of glycine,l-alanine and glycylglycine at T=298.15 K

The effect of tetra-n-alkylammonium bromides, R₄NBr (R=CH₃, C₂H₅, C₄H₉) on the densities, ρ, of glycine, l-alanine and glycylglycine are reported at T=298.15 K. The apparent molar volumes of amino acids in aqueous tetra-n-alkylammonium salts, φ_VAJW, and of tetra-n-alkylammonium bromides in aqueous amino acids and peptide, φ_VJAW, are calculated from the measured densities. Both φ_VAJW and φ_VJAW have been analysed accurately using a simple equation. Positive transfer volumes are observed for glycine, l-alanine and glycylglycine in the presence of R₄NBr. Tetra-n-butylammonium bromide shows almost double increase in the transfer volumes of amino acids or peptide than tetramethyl- or tetraethylammonium bromides. Negative transfer volumes for the tetra-n-alkylammonium bromide salts are noted in aqueous amino acids or peptide due to large tetra-n-alkylammonium cation undergoing hydrophobic hydration.     

Estimated ionicB-coefficients from NMR measurements in aqueous electrolyte solutions

¹⁷O-NMR spin-lattice relaxation timesT ₁ of D₂O molecules were measured at 5–85°C in D₂O solutions of alkali metal halides (LiClCsCl, KBr, and KI), DCl, KOD, Ph₄PCl, NaPh₄B, and tetraalkylammonium bromides (Me₄NBrAm₄NBr) in the concentration range 0.1–1.4 mol-kg^–1 TheB-coefficients of the electrolytes obtained from the concentration dependence of relaxation ratesR ₁=1/T₁ were divided into the ionicB-coefficients by three methods: (i) the assumption ofB (K⁺)=B(Cl^–), (ii) the assumption ofB(Ph₄P⁺)=B(Ph₄B^–), and (iii) the use ofB(Br^–) obtained from a series ofB(R₄NBr). It was found that Methods (ii) and (iii) resulted in an abnormal temperature dependence of theB-coefficients of alkali metal ions and a negative values of rotational correlation times _c at lower temperatures for hydroxide and halide ions. These results suggest that the methods based on the van der Waals volume are not adequate for the ionic separation of NMRB-coefficients. From the analysis using the assumption ofB(K⁺)=B(Cl^–), it was found that D₃O⁺, OD^–, and Me₄N⁺ ions are the intermediates between structure makers and breakers, and that the hydrophobicity of phenyl groups is weaker than that of alkyl groups due to the interactions between water molecules and -electrons in phenyl groups.     

Density and viscosity studies of symmetrical tetra-n-alkylammonium bromides in water-ethanol mixtures at 303.15 K1

The densities and viscosities of tetra-n-alkylammonium bromides, R₄NBr (R=CH₃ to C₄H₉), NaBPh₄ and NaBr have been measured in 0, 10, 30, 50, 70, 90, and 100 wt % ethanol + water at 303.15 K. From the densities, apparent and limiting partial molar volumes of the electrolytes and ions in these mixture have been evaluated. The viscosity data have been analyzed with the help of Jones-Dole equation and the viscosity B-coefficients have been determined. The viscosity B-coefficients are further split up in to their ionic contributions.     

Partial Molar Volumes of Tetraalkylammonium Ions in N, N-Dimethylformamide

The densities of tetraalkylammonium bromide, R₄NBr (R = Et, Pr, Bu, Hex, Hep, Oct), solutions in dimethylformamide have been measured for the composition range (0.05–0.4) mol-kg⁻¹ at 25 ^∘C. Apparent molar V_φ and limiting partial molar volumes ⫫₂^o of the electrolytes have been evaluated. Using the extrapolation values, the limiting partial molar volumes of the tetraalkymammonium ions (⫫_i^o) have been calculated. Analysis of different contributions to the ionic ⫫_i^o indicated partial penetration of solvent molecules into the van der Waal’s volume of tetraalkylammonium (TAA) ions.     

Enthalpy of interaction of some electrolytes with 2-methyl-2-butanol in wate at 25°C

Enthalpies of mixing in water of 2-methyl-2-butanol with several electrolytes (alkali-metal halides, tetra-n-alkylammonium bromides, Ph₄PCl, Ph₄AsCl and NaPh₄B) have been determined by flow microcalorimetry at 25°C. Enthalpic pair interaction coefficients, h_NE, of the virial expansion of the excess enthalpy were calculated. All coefficients are positive and increase as the anionic size increases in anionic series of alkali-metal halides. A linear correlation between h_NE and the number of carbon atoms in the apolar group of R₄NBr is observed. For alkali-metal halides coefficients h_NE depend mainly on the partial desolvation of halides, and for hydrophobic electrolytes both the partial desolvation of halide ions and hydrophobic interaction are the leading factors in the value of h_NE.     

Effects of H/D-isotope substitution and temperature on the volume characteristics of tetra-n-butylammonium bromide dissolved in methanol and its D-isotopomers

Densities of Buⁿ ₄NBr solutions in MeOH, MeOD, and CD₃OH were measured at salt concentrations of up to 1.5 solvomolality units (nearly 2.63·10^–2 mole fraction) at 278.15, 288.15, 298.15, 308.15, and 318.15 K. The limiting partial molar volumes of Buⁿ ₄NBr dissolved in these alcohols were calculated. The isotope effects in the volume characteristics of the stoichiometric mixture of ions, [Buⁿ ₄N⁺ + Br^–], are mainly due to the vibrational changes in the solvent structure upon deuteration of different molecular fragments. Structural transformations in infinitely dilute solution of Buⁿ ₄NBr in methanol are governed by non-specific solvation of the symmetrical Buⁿ ₄N⁺ cation.     

Syntheses and structures of diorgano(halo- orpseudohalo-)(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato)-stannates (1-), [Q][RSnX(dmit)] (Q=onium cation; X=halide orpseudohalide)

Ionic compounds, [Q] [R₂SnX(dmit)][dmit=1,3-dithiole-2-thione-dithiolate; Q=1,4-dimethylpyridinium or tetraalkylammonium; R=Phor alkyl; X=Cl, Br, I, NCS, NCSe, or N₃] have been obtained by (a) from R₂SnX₂ and [Q]₂[Zn(dmit)₂] in the presence of excess QX,(b) from halide exchange reactions in acetone solution between [Q] [R₂SnCl(dmit)]and a halide or pseudohalide source, or (c) by addition of QX to [R₂Sn(dmit)]. Crystalstructure determinations of [NEt₄] [Ph₂SnI(dmit)] and [1,4-Me₂pyridiniuml [Ph₂SnBr(dmit)] as well as of the mixed halides, [1a, 1b, 4a, 2] [Ph₂SnCl_nI₁₋n(dmit)] (n=0.57, 0.42 or0.22), indicated that the tin atoms have distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometries in the anions,with the X ligand and a dithiolato atom in the axial sites. The [R₂SnX(dmit)]⁻ anions remain essentially intact in organic solvents, but lose X⁻ on extractionwith H₂O to give the neutral species, R₂Sn(dmit).     

Thermal properties of <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-R<Subscript>4</Subscript>NBr solutions in binary solvents containing formamide

The enthalpies of solution of tetraethyl- and tetra-n-hexylammonium bromides have been measured in mixtures of formamide with ethylene glycol at 298.15 and 313.15 K in the whole mole fraction range by the calorimetric method. The standard enthalpies of solution in binary mixtures have been calculated with Redlich–Rosenfeld–Meyer type equation. The enthalpy and heat capacity parameters of pair interaction of organic electrolytes with EG in FA and with FA in EG have been computed and discussed. The enthalpy interaction parameters of single ions with EG in FA medium have been evaluated and compared with those for ion–water and ion–MeOH interaction in FA. The standard heat capacities of solution have been evaluated. The excess enthalpies of solution, Δ_sol H ^E, of Et₄NBr, Bu₄NBr, and Hex₄NBr have been determined. The Δ_sol H ^E values are positive for Et₄NBr and negative for Bu₄NBr and Hex₄NBr and become more negative from Bu₄NBr to Hex₄NBr.     

Quantum-chemical study of C<Subscript>n</Subscript>F2<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>+2</Subscript> conformers. Structure and IR spectra

Quantum-chemical calculations of the geometrical structure and vibrational spectra of C_nF_2n+2 oligomers (n = 5–8) in the chain and branched conformations are reported. The lengthening of the chain of C_nF_2n+2 does not substantially affect the geometrical parameters of the oligomers. In all cases under study, the most optimal structure of the molecule is a zigzag chain with bond lengths R(C-C) = 1.53 –1.54 and R(C-F) = 1.36 –1.34 ; the chain is rolled into a helix, which makes an angle of 17° with the plane. The IR spectra are sensitive to the structural deficiency of oligomers C_nF_2n+2 associated with the lateral trifluoromethyl groups formed in the chain; the spectra can be used for revealing defects of this type in the structure of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The possibility of defects associated with the lateral CF₃ groups in the structure of PTFE and its low-temperature modifications is explained based on the calculated total energies of C_nF2 _n+2.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by L.

The new complexes fac-[Re(CO)₃Br{Ph₂P(CH₂) _n PPh₂}] (1a–3a) [(1a), n = 1; (2a), n = 2; (3a), n = 3] and [Re₂(CO)₈Br₂{-Ph₂P(CH₂) _n PPh₂}] (1b–3b) [(1b), n = 1; (2b), n = 2; (3b), n = 3] have been prepared by the photochemical reaction of Re(CO)₅Br with Ph₂P(CH₂) _n PPh₂ (n = 1, dppm; 2, dppe; 3, dppp). The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectroscopy, f.t.-i.r. and ³¹P-[¹H]-n.m.r. spectrometry. The spectroscopic studies suggest cis-chelate bidentate coordination of the ligand in fac-[Re(CO)₃Br{Ph₂P(CH₂) _n PPh₂}] (1a–3a) and cis-bridging bidentate coordination of the ligand between two metals in [Re₂(CO)₈Br₂{cis--Ph₂P(CH₂) _n PPh₂}] (1a–3a).     

Diastereoselective addition of organomanganese compounds to α-alkoxysubstituted propanals

Liquid Solution Densities of Ternary-Pseudobinary Mixtures of (Benzene + Cyclohexane) in the Presence of Tetrachloromethane or <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-Hexane

Densities have been obtained as a function of composition for ternary-pseudobinary mixtures of [(benzene + tetrachloromethane or n-hexane) + (cyclohexane + tetrachloromethane or n-hexane)] at atmospheric pressure and the temperature 298.15 K, by means of a vibrating-tube densimeter. Excess molar volumes, V_m^E, partial molar volumes and excess partial molar volumes were calculated from the density data. The values of V_m^E have been correlated using the Redlich–Kister equation and the coefficients and standard errors were estimated. The experimental and calculated quantities are used to discuss the mixing behavior of the components. The results show that the third component, CCl₄ or n-C₆H₁₄, have quite different influences on the volumetric properties of binary liquid mixtures of benzene with cyclohexane.     

Excess Volumetric and Spectroscopic Properties of Mixtures of Some <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-Alkoxyethanols and of Some Polyethers with 2-Pyrrolidinone and <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidinone at 298.15 K

Excess molar volumes V_m^E for binary liquid mixtures of n-alkoxyethanols or polyethers + 2-pyrrolidinone or N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone have been measured with a continuous dilution dilatometer at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure as a function of composition. The alkoxyethanols are diethylene glycol monomethylether, 2-(2-methoxyethoxy) ethanol, CH₃(OC₂H₄)₂OH; diethylene glycol monoethylether, 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy) ethanol, C₂H₅(OC₂H₄)₂OH; and diethylene glycol monobutylether, 2-(2-butoxyethoxy) ethanol, C₄H₉(OC₂H₄)₂OH; whereas the polyethers are diethylene glycol dimethylether, bis(2-methoxyethyl)ether, CH₃(OC₂H₄)₂OCH₃; diethylene glycol diethylether, bis(2-ethoxyethyl)ether, C₂H₅(OC₂H₄)₂OC₂H₅; and diethylene glycol dibutylether, bis(2-butoxyethyl)ether, C₄H₉(OC₂H₄)₂OC₄H₉. In all mixtures the excess molar volumes are negative and symmetric across the entire composition range. The excess volumes are fitted to the Redlich–Kister polynomial equation to obtain the binary coefficients and the standard errors. The experimental results have also been discussed on the basis of IR measurements.     

Tetraaryl-methane analogues in group 14—V. Distortion of tetrahedral geometryin terms of through-space π–π and π–σ interactions andNMR sagging in terms of π–σcharge transfer

44 members of thecompound series Ph_4−nMR_n (M=Si, Ge, Sn, Pb; R=o-, m-, p-Tol; n=0–4) were synthesized (15 newcompounds). The crystal structures of Ph₃Sn (o-Tol) and PhSn (o-Tol)₃ were determined and compared to 16 known structures. Subject to the distanced (M–C), an interplay between through-space π–π repulsion and π–σ attraction leads to either elongated or compressed tetrahedral geometry. ²⁹ Si-, ¹¹⁹ Sn- and ²⁰⁷ Pb-NMR chemical shifts were determined in solution and in the solid state. ⁷³ Ge chemical shifts were measured only in solution. Anupfield or downfield sagging of the chemical shifts along each series is rationalized in terms of a π–σcharge transfer which is constrained by torsion of the aromatic groups.

Six new complexes, Mn(CO)( ⁵-C₅H₅){Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂}] (1a–3a) [(1a), n=1; (2a), n=2; (3a), n=3] and [Mn₂(CO)₄( ⁵-C₅H₅)₂(cis--Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂)] (1b–3b) [(1b), n=1; (2b), n=2; (3b), n=3] have been synthesized by the photochemical reaction of [( ⁵-C₅H₅)Mn(CO)₃] with Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂ [n=1, dppm(S)₂; 2, dppe(S)₂; 3, dppp(S)₂]. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectroscopy, f.t.-i.r. and ³¹P–[¹H]-n.m.r. spectroscopy. The spectroscopic studies reveal that coordination of the ligand iscis-chelate bidentate in [Mn(CO)( ⁵-C₅H₅){Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂}] (1a–3a) and cis-bridging bidentate between two metals in [Mn₂(CO)₄( ⁵-C₅H₅)₂(cis--Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂)] (1b–3b).     

Kinetics of the ene reactions of 4‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazoline‐3,5‐dione with β‐pinene and 2‐carene: Temperature,high pressure,and solvent effects

The data on temperature, solvent, and high hydrostatic pressure influence on the rate of the ene reactions of 4‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazoline‐3,5‐dione ( 1 ) with 2‐carene ( 2 ), and β‐pinene ( 4 ) have been obtained. Ene reactions 1 + 2 and 1 + 4 have high heat effects: ∆H_r‐n ( 1 + 2 ) −158.4, ∆H_r‐n( 1 + 4 ) −159.2 kJ mol⁻¹, 25°C, 1,2‐dichloroethane. The comparison of the activation volume (∆V^≠( 1 + 2 ) −29.9 cm³ mol⁻¹, toluene; ∆V^≠( 1 + 4 ) −36.0 cm³ mol⁻¹, ethyl acetate) and reaction volume values (∆V_r‐n( 1 + 2 ) −24.0 cm³ mol⁻¹, toluene; ∆V_r‐n( 1 + 4 ) −30.4 cm³ mol⁻¹, ethyl acetate) reveals more compact cyclic transition states in comparison with the acyclic reaction products 3 and 5 . In the series of nine solvents, the reaction rate of 1+2 increases 260‐fold and 1+4 increases 200‐fold, respectively, but not due to the solvent polarity.

The new complexes [(η³-Me₂CCMeCH₂)Pd{η²-Ph₂P(S)CHP(S)Ph₂] (1), [(η³-Me₂CCMeCH₂)Pd{η²-OC(CF₃) CHCO(C₄H₃S)}] (2) and [(η³-CH₂CMeCH₂)Pd{η²-OC(CF₃)CHCO(C₄H₃S)}] (3) have been synthesized by reacting [(η³-allyl)Pd(μ-Cl)]₂ with Ph₂P(S)CH₂P(S)Ph₂ and OC(CF₃)CH₂CO(C₄H₃S) in the presence of base. All have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H-n.m.r and FAB-mass spectroscopy. Spectroscopic studies suggest that both ligands are bidentate, forming six-membered Pd-S-P-C-P-S and Pd-O-C-C-C-O palladacycles, the η³-allyl group completing the coordination sphere.     

Partial molal volumes of ions in organic solvents. IV. Ethylene glycol

Apparent molal volumes have been measured for several electrolytes in ethylene glycol (EG) and the standard state partial molal volumes, V₂°, evaluated. Ultrasonic vibration potentials (uvp) have also been measured for most of the alkali metal halides in EG, and these employed to evaluate ionic partial molal volumes, V° (ion). The results show unambiguously that the uvp is essentially independent of solvent viscosity. The V₂° data have also been divided into ionic components by four other techniques including, the method of Mukerjee, the use of Ph₄AsBPh₄, the correspondence method and an extrapolation of V₂° for a series of tetraalkylammonium bromides as a funtion of cation molecular weight. With the exception of the latter technique, all methods used give 30±2 cm³-mol^–1 for V° (ion), although the uvp leads to the largest value for V° (ion). The divisions have been analyzed also with the aid of Hepler's equation, and the results suggest that the uvp method gives a more accurate division and that the EG dipole is more hindered than the dipole in ethanol.     

Volumetric Properties of Aqueous 2-Chloroethanol Solutions and Volumes of Transfer of Some Amino Acids and Peptides from Water to Aqueous 2-Chloroethanol Solutions

Densities and apparent molar volumes of aqueous 2-chloroethanol were determined at temperatures from 15.0 to 34.4°C using digital densimetry. The results of the volumetric measurements have been used to calculate the following thermodynamic quantites at 25°C: V ₂ ^o = 55.05 ± 0.02 cm³-mol^–1, (V ₂ ^o/T)_p = 0.01486 ± 0.00318 cm³-K^–1-mol^–1, and (² V ₂ ^o/T ²)_p = 0.02972 ± 0.00318 cm³-K^–2-mol^–1. Partial molar volumes of transfer from water to 1 mol-dm^–3 2-chloroethanol have also been determined for L-glycine, L-alanine, L-serine, L-glutamic acid, and L-aspartic acid at 35.0°C. The transfer results have been explained in terms of the nature of the interactions of the groups in the solute and solvent. Hydration numbers of L-glycine and L-alanine have also been calculated in aqueous 2-chloroethanol.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,and characterizations of two novel cubane-like and double cubane-like molybdenum-copper-sulphur clusters {MoCu3S3(S2COEt)}(O)(Ph3P)3 and {Mo2Cu6S6(SCMe3)2}(O)2(Ph3P)4

Two novel heterometallic cubane-like and double cubane-like clusters, {MoCu₃S₃(S₂COEt)}(O)(Ph₃P)₃ I and {Mo₂Cu₆S₆(SCMe₃)₂}(O)₂(Ph₃P)₄ II, were synthesized by reaction of {MoCu₂S₃}(O)(Ph₃P)₃ with CuS₂COEt and CuSCMe₃, respectively. ClusterI crystallized in the triclinic space group (2) witha=12.766(6) Å,b=22.904(5) Å,c=10.522(3) Å, =99.86(2)°, =109.68(2)°, =86.84(3)°,V=2854(2) ų,Z=2,R=0.049 for 6622 observed reflections (I>5(I)) and 410 variables. ClusterII crystallized in the triclinic space group (2) with dimensionsa=14.212(4) Å,b=14.725(5) Å,c=12.396(8) Å, =110.32(4)°, =90.40(5)°, =62.88(2)°,V=2129(2) ų,Z=1,R=0.039 for 6020 observed reflections (I>3(I)) and 461 variables. ClusterI consists of a neutral cubane-like molecule with the core {MoCu₃S₃(S₂COEt)}²⁺, in which one corner of the cubane-like core is a novel triply bridging bidentate 1,1-dithiolato (xanthate, S₂COEt^–) ligand. ClusterII is a double cubane-like one, in which two cubane-like cores {MoCu₃S₃(SCMe₃)}²⁺ are connected by two Cu-S bonds of the triply bridging monothiolato (SCMe ₃ ^– ) ligand. Two different pathways of unit construction from a small heterometallic cluster {MoCu₂S₃}(O)(Ph₃P)₃ have been outlined. Comparisons of the selected bond lengths and bond angles for the cubane-like core {MoCu₃S₃ X} (X=Cl^–, Br^–, S₂COEt^–, SCMe ₃ ^– ) are given. Spectroscopic properties of the title clusters are also reported.
