The composition of the complex was established spectrophotometrically by molar ratio method and confirmed by elemental analysis. The constant of complex formation was calculated. By the IR spectroscopy the electron-donating centers of 5-hydroxyorotic acid taking part in coordination with metal ion were established. The structure of the obtained complex was suggested.     

The formation of metal nanoparticles in polyacrylic acid-polyethyleneimine complex upon reduction of copper(II) ions using X-ray irradiation

The features of nanoparticle formation by the radiation-chemical reduction of Cu²⁺ ions in polyacrylic acid-polyethyleneimine complexes have been studied. It has been shown that the swollen film/aqueous alcohol medium interphase exchange of the reducing species and the specifics of X-ray energy transfer play an important role in the formation of metal particles in the subsurface layer of polymer matrixes. An analysis of EPR and X-ray diffraction data shows that an acetaldehyde admixture increases the Cu²⁺ reduction rate of and enables the growth of nanoparticles.     

Stabilization of copper nanoparticles prepared by reduction from solutions of poly(acrylic acid) complexes with Cu2+ ions and poly(ethylene glycols)

Copper sols are prepared via the reduction of copper ions with hydrazine borane in dilute aqueous solutions of mixtures of the PAA-Cu²⁺ complex and poly(ethylene glycols) of various molecular masses at PEG: PAA = 0.25 base-mol/base-mol and PAA: Cu²⁺ = 10 base-mol/mol in the pH range 4.0–7.0. The stability of sols against oxidation (dissolution) or aggregation (enlargement) of metal nanoparticles is much higher than that of sols prepared in the absence of PEG. With an increase in the initial pH or a decrease in the molecular mass of PEG, the formed copper nanoparticles are much larger (no less than 20 nm in diameter) than copper nanoparticles occurring in the sol prepared in a solution of the PAA double complex with Cu²⁺ ions and high-molecular-mass PEG at a low initial pH (3–10 nm in diameter). Copper nanoparticles in sols prepared in solutions of complexes based on the high-molecular-mass PEG do not aggregate during exposure, thereby indicating the high stability of polymer screens on their surfaces.     

Complex formation of polyethyleneimine with copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) ions

An influence of the structure of a globule of polyethyleneimine on the complex formation of one with the copper(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) ions is described. A change of the coordination number from the pH of solution for complexes of ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, and polyethyleneimine with metal ions was found. The fraction of monomer links, bound with metal ions, depends on the volume of the globule of macromolecule as well as the condition of the proceeding reaction. The reaction of complex formation is controlled by the diffusion of metal ions into the polymer globule in solution. The effective equilibrium constants of complex formation were found. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 40: 914–922, 2002; DOI 10.1002/pola.10157

Potentiometric study of complex formation equilibria of alpha-oxooximes with copper(II) and nickel(II) and ions

Complex formation equilibria between copper(II) and nickel(II) with phenylglyoxal 2-oxime (HPGO) and 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione 2-oxime (HPPO) have been studied in 50% (v/v) ethanol-water solution containing 0.5M sodium nitrate as constant ionic medium at 25 degrees , using glass electrode potentiometry.

Catalysis by methyltrioxorhenium(VII): reduction of hydronium ions by europium(II) and reduction of perchlorate ions by europium(II) and chromium(II)

The title reactions occur stepwise, the first and fastest being MeReO3 + Eu2+ --> Re(VI) + Eu3+ (k298 = 2.7 x 10(4) L mol(-1) s(-1)), followed by rapid reduction of Re(VI) by Eu2+ to MeReO2. The latter species is reduced by a third Eu2+ to Re(IV), a metastable species characterized by an intense charge transfer band, epsilon410 = 910 L mol(-1) cm(-1) at pH 1; the rate constant for its formation is 61.3 L mol(-1) s(-1), independent of [H+]. Yet another reduction step occurs, during which hydrogen is evolved at a rate v = k[Re(IV)][Eu2+][H+](-1), with k = 2.56 s(-1) at mu = 0.33 mol L(-1). The 410 nm Re(IV) species bears no ionic charge on the basis of the kinetic salt effect. We attribute hydrogen evolution to a reaction between H-ReVO and H3O+, where the hydrido complex arises from the unimolecular rearrangement of Re(III)-OH in a reaction that cannot be detected directly. Chromium(II) ions do not evolve H2, despite E(Cr) degrees approximately E(EU) degrees. We attribute this lack of reactivity to the Re(IV) intermediate being captured as [Re(IV)-O-Cr(III)]2+, with both metals having substitutionally inert d3 electronic configurations. Hydrogen evolution occurs in chloride or triflate media; with perchlorate present, MeReO2 reduces perchlorate to chloride, as reported previously [Abu-Omar, M. M.; Espenson, J. H. Inorg. Chem. 1995, 34, 6239-6240].     

Thermodynamics of the complex formation of copper(II) with L-phenylalanine in aqueous ethanol solutions

Constants of the acid dissociation and complexation of L-phenylalanine (HPhe) with copper(II) ions are determined by potentiometry in aqueous ethanol solutions containing 0 to 0.7 molar fraction of alcohol. Changes in the Gibbs energy for the transfer from water to a binary solvent of L-phenylalanine, Phe^? anion, and [CuPhe]⁺ complex are calculated. It is found that the weakening of solvation of the ligand donor groups in solvents with high ethanol contents is accompanied by an increase in the stability of [CuPhe]⁺ complex.     

Effect of complexation of poly(acrylic acid) with Cu2+ ions on the size of copper nanoparticles prepared via reduction in aqueous solutions

Sols of zero-valence copper are prepared via the chemical reduction of Cu(II) ions by hydrazine borane in aqueous solutions of high-molecular-mass poly(acrylic acid), which forms stable complexes with copper ions at 20°C in a wide pH range. The study of the composition of coordination centers, the ligand surrounding of metal ions, and the character of distribution of copper ions over poly(acrylic acid) coils in a wide range of solution compositions and pH values shows that the size of copper nanoparticles in the sols can be controlled by varying the ratio between ligand groups (carboxylate anions in poly(acrylic acid)) and copper ions in the reaction system during the synthesis of sols. This effect can be accomplished either by variation in the initial composition of solution or change in pH (the degree of ionization of the initial poly(acrylic acid) in the presence of copper ions).     

Adsorption of copper(II) ions from aqueous solutions on alumina industrial wastes

Visual detection of copper(II) ions in blood samples by controlling the leaching of protein-capped gold nanoparticles

We have developed a simple, low-cost, paper-based probe for the selective colorimetric detection of copper ions (Cu(2+)) in aqueous solutions. The bovine serum albumin (BSA)-modified 13.3-nm Au nanoparticle (BSA-Au NP) probe was designed to detect Cu(2+) ions using lead ions (Pb(2+)) and 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) as leaching agents in a glycine-NaOH (pH 12.0) solution. In addition, a nitrocellulose membrane (NCM) was used to trap the BSA-Au NPs, leading to the preparation of a nanocomposite film consisting of a BSA-Au NP-decorated membrane (BSA-Au NPs/NCM). The BSA-Au NPs probe operates on the principle that Cu deposition on the surface of the BSA-Au NPs inhibits their leaching ability, which is accelerated by Pb(2+) ions in the presence of 2-ME. Under optimal solution conditions (5 mM glycine-NaOH (pH 12.0), Pb(2+) (50 μM), and 2-ME (1.0 M)), the Pb(2+)/2-ME-BSA-Au NPs/NCM enabled the detection of Cu(2+) at nanomolar concentrations in aqueous solutions by the naked eye with high selectivity (at least 100-fold over other metal ions). In addition, this cost-effective probe allowed for the rapid and simple determination of Cu(2+) ions in not only natural water samples but also in a complex biological sample (in this case, blood sample).     

Determination of copper(I) and copper(II) ions after complexation with bicinchoninic acid by CE

A facile, sensitive, and selective method was developed for the simultaneous separation and determination of copper(I) [Cu(+)] and copper(II) [Cu(2+)] ions using CE with direct UV detection. The copper ions were complexed with a 1.5 mM bicinchoninic acid disodium salt solution at pH 8.7 prior to analysis. Acetate buffer (2 mM) was used as the CE running buffer. Parameters affecting CE separation such as sample pH, applied voltage, concentration of complexing agent, nature of the buffer solution, and interferences by other metal ions, were evaluated. The LODs for Cu(+) and Cu(2+) were 3.0 and 2.5 microg/mL (S/N = 3), respectively. The developed method allows the simultaneous determination of Cu(+) and Cu(2+) in less than 5 min with RSDs of between 5.3 and 9.5% for migration time and between 3.4 and 9.7% for peak areas, respectively. At optimum conditions, the percentage recoveries of Cu(+) and Cu(2+) were found to be 99.4 and 99.5%.     

Mixed ligand complex formation of copper(II) and zinc(II) ions with 3-hydroxynaphthoate and picolinate ions as ligands in dioxane-water mixtures

Cu(II)-hydroxynaphthoate-picolinate and Zn(II)-hydroxynaphthoate-picolinate ternary systems were studied in dioxane-water (1 : 1, ν/ν) solutions at a 0.2 mol dm⁻³ ionic strength and 25°C. From EMF data the mixed ligand complexes M(hna)(pic) for M = Cu(II) and Zn(II) and M(hna)(pic)₂ for M = Zn(II) were detected and their formation constants evaluated (log K_f = 18.94± 0.03, 18.09±0.08 and 23.4±0.07, respectively). Factors contributing to the stabilization of these complexes are discussed and optimum experimental conditions for their predominance established.

The most probable mode of coordination of the chelating agent and the amino acid in the mixed-ligand complexes was elucidated.
