Kinetic and Equilibrium Studies of Chromium(III) Removal by Macroporous Ion Exchanger Amberlyst‐15 (H+)

Chromium(III) sorption on macroporous strong cation exchanger Amberlyst‐15 (H⁺) was studied as a function of time and temperature. The rate constant values for chromium(III) sorption were calculated both for film and particle diffusion processes. The temperature was found to have a positive effect on both the diffusional processes. From the rate constant values, the energy of activation was calculated using the well‐known Arrhenius equation. The high values of energy of activation confirmed the film diffusional nature of the process. Equilibrium data were explained with the help of Langmuir equation. Various thermodynamic parameters (ΔH^?, ΔS^? and ΔG^?) from chromium(III) exchange on the resin were calculated. The ΔG^? values were found to be negative while both the ΔH^? and ΔS^? were positive.     

Sels de Pyrylium. XVIII. Etude par RMN du Carbone-13 de Sels d'Aminopyrylium et des Barrières de Rotation dans quelques Cations N,N-Diméthylaminopyrylium

The C-2—N bond of 2-N,N-dimethylaminopyrylium cations has a partial π character due to the conjugation of the nitrogen lone-pair with the ring. The values of ΔG^≠, ΔH^≠, ΔS^≠ parameters related to the corresponding hindered rotation have been determined by ¹³C NMR total bandshape analysis. This conjugation decreases the electrophilic character of carbon C-4 so that the displacement of the alkoxy group is no longer possible. Such a hindered rotation also exists in 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyrylium cations and the corresponding ΔG^≠ parameters have been evaluated. Comparison of these two cationic species shows that hindered rotation around the C—N bond is larger in position 4 than in position 2. Furthermore, the barrier to internal rotation around the C-2? N bond decreases with increasing electron donating power of the substituent at position 4. ΔG^≠ values decreases from 19.1 kcal mol^?1 (79.9 kJ mol^?1) to 12.6 kcal mol^?1 (52.7 kJ mol^?1) according to the following sequence for the R-4 substituents: -C₆H₅, -CH₃, -OCH₃, -N(CH₃)₂.     

Studies with inorganic precipitate membranes. III. Consideration of energetics of electrolyte permeation through membranes

The permeability of various electrolytes through parchment-supported ferrocyanide membranes of manganese, cobalt, silver, and cadmium has been measured at 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30°C. The order of permeability at a given temperature was Cl^- > NO₃^- > CNS^- > CH₃COO^- > SO₄^2- for both monovalent and divalent cations. For any given anion, the cations followed the sequence NH₄⁺ > Li⁺ > Ba²⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Mg²⁺ > Al³⁺. This sequence has been correlated with the size of the hydrated ion. Further, the data have been considered from the standpoint of the theory of rate processes and the values for the entropy of activation (ΔS′) have been derived assuming an equilibrium distance of 3 Å in the membrane. The values of ΔS′ were all negative and decreased with increasing valence of the ions. This was interpreted to mean electrolyte permeation with partial immobilization in the membrane.

Alginate polyelectrolyte ionotropic gels. XVIII. Oxidation of alginate polysaccharide by potassium permanganate in alkaline solutions: Kinetics of decomposition of intermediate complex

The kinetics of decomposition of [Alg · Mn ^VIO₄^2?] intermediate complex have been investigated spectrophotometrically at a constant ionic strength of 0.5 mol dm^?3. The decomposition reaction was found to be first-order in the intermediate concentration. The results showed that the rate of reaction was base-catalyzed. The kinetic parameters have been evaluated and found to be ΔS^? = ?103.88±6.18 J mol^?1 K^?1, ΔH^? = 51.61 ± 1.02 kJ mol^?1, and ΔG^? = 82.57 ± 2.86 kJ mol^?1, respectively. A reaction mechanism consistent with the results is discussed. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Stationary points on the potential energy surface of O2−HF and O2−H2O

The determination of minima and saddle points on the potential energy surfaces of the hydrogen bonded species O₂^?HF and O₂^?H₂O is performed with unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations. Geometries, electron density distributions, and relative energies for every stationary point are reported. Only one true minimum is found for O₂^?HF and for O₂^?H₂O, and this approximately corresponds to a structure where the partially positive hydrogen atom is located along one of the superoxide ion electron lone-pair directions. Calculated ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG values for the reaction between O₂^? and H₂O are in good agreement with experimental data.

E. M. F. of the Cell, Cd-Hg (2-phase)/CdAc₂(m), Hg₂Ac₂(s)/Hg was measured at 20°, 25°, 30° and 40°C. The standard e. m. f. of the cell, Cd/CdAc₃(m), Hg₂Ac₂(c)/Hg was evaluated as E°=1.1500?11.09×10^?4T+1.06×10^?8T² The thermodynamic data of the reaction, Cd(c) + Hg₂Ac₂(c)=2Hg(l)+Cd⁺⁺(aq)+2Ac^?(aq) at 25°C were estimated as ΔF°=?42,139, ΔH°=?48,698 cal mole^?1 and ΔS°=?22.0 cal deg^?1 mole^?1 at 25°C. The thermodynamic data for the formation of Hg₂Ac₂(s) were evaluated as ΔF_f°=?202.3, ΔH_f°=?154.5 Kcal mole^?1 and S°=72.9 cal deg^?1 mole^?1. From measurements of the heats of solution of CdAc₂·2H₂O in aqueous solution, the relative partial molal enthalpies of cadmium acetate in aqueous solution were estimated.     

Thermodynamic activation parameters for viscous flow of dilute aqueous solutions of ethylenediamine,trimethylenediamine and N,N-dimethyltrimethylenediamine

The density and the viscosity data have been used to determine the thermodynamic activation parameters, free energies (ΔG ^?), enthalpies (ΔH ^?) and entropies (ΔS ^?), for viscous flow of the systems; water (W) + ethylenediamine (ED), W + trimethylenediamine (TMD) and W + N,N-dimethyltrimethylenediamine (DMTMD) in the temperature range of 303.15–323.15 K over the composition range of 0 ≤ X ₂ ≤ 0.45, where X ₂ is the mole fraction of diamines. On addition of diamines to water, ΔG ^?, ΔH ^? and ΔS ^? values increase sharply, pass through a maximum and then decline. The heights of maximum in the ΔG ^? versus X ₂ curve vary as, W + DMTMD > W + TMD > W + ED. For all systems, the excess properties, ΔG ^{? E} , ΔH ^{? E} and ΔS ^{? E} are positive. The observed increase in thermodynamic values may be due to combined effect of hydrophobic hydration of diamines and water–diamine interaction as a result of hydrophilic effect.

Mechanistic Aspects of Ligand Substitution on the Hydroxopentaaquarhodium(III) Ion in Aqueous Solution by Sulfur‐Containing Bioactive Ligands

The kinetics of the interactions between three sulfur‐containing ligands, thioglycolic acid, 2‐thiouracil, glutathione, and the title complex, have been studied spectrophotometrically in aqueous medium as a function of the concentrations of the ligands, temperature, and pH at constant ionic strength. The reactions follow a two‐step process in which the first step is ligand‐dependent and the second step is ligand‐independent chelation. Rate constants (k₁ ～10^?3 s^?1 and k₂ ～10^?5 s^?1) and activation parameters (for thioglycolic acid: ΔH₁^≠ = 22.4 ± 3.0 kJ mol^?1, ΔS₁^≠ = ?220 ± 11 J K^?1 mol^?1, ΔH₂^≠ = 38.5 ± 1.3 kJ mol^?1, ΔS₂^≠ = ?204 ± 4 J K^?1 mol^?1; for 2‐thiouracil: ΔH₁^≠ = 42.2 ± 2.0 kJ mol^?1, ΔS₁^≠ = ?169 ± 6 J K^?1 mol^?1, ΔH₂^≠ = 66.1 ± 0.5 kJ mol^?1, ΔS₂^≠ = ?124 ± 2 J K^?1 mol^?1; for glutathione: ΔH₁^≠ = 47.2 ± 1.7 kJ mol^?1, ΔS₁^≠ = ?155 ± 5 J K^?1mol^?1, ΔH₂^≠ = 73.5 ± 1.1 kJ mol^?1, ΔS₂^≠ = ?105 ± 3 J K^?1 mol^?1) were calculated. Based on the kinetic and activation parameters, an associative interchange mechanism is proposed for the interaction processes. The products of the reactions have been characterized from IR and ESI mass spectroscopic analysis. A rate law involving the outer sphere association complex formation has been established as      

Synthesis and Diels-Alder Reactivity of 2,3,5,6-Tetramethylidenenorbornane

Pd-catalyzed double carbomethoxylation of the Diels-Alder adduct of cyclo-pentadiene and maleic anhydride yielded the methyl norbornane-2,3-endo-5, 6-exo-tetracarboxylate ( 4 ) which was transformed in three steps into 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-idenenorbornane ( 1 ). The cycloaddition of tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) to 1 giving the corresponding monoadduct 7 was 364 times faster (toluene, 25°) than the addition of TCNE to 7 yielding the bis-adduct 9 . Similar reactivity trends were observed for the additions of TCNE to the less reactive 2,3,5,6-tetramethylidene-7-oxanorbornane ( 2 ). The following second order rate constants (toluene, 25°) and activation parameters were obtained for: 1 + TCNE → 7 : k₁ = (255 + 5) 10^?4 mol^?1 · s^?1, ΔH≠ = (12.2 ± 0.5) kcal/mol, ΔS≠ = (?24.8 ± 1.6) eu.; 7 + TCNE → 9 , k₂ = (0.7 ± 0.02) 10^?4 mol^?1 · s^?1, ΔH≠ = (14.1 ± 1.0) kcal/mol, ΔS≠ = ( ?30 ± 3.5) eu.; 2 + TCNE → 8 : k₁ = (1.5 ± 0.03) 10^?4 mol^?1 · s^?1, ΔH≠ = (14.8 ± 0.7) kcal/mol, ΔS≠ = (?26.4 ± 2.3) eu.; 8 + TCNE → 10 ; k₂ = (0.004 ± 0.0002) 10^?4 mol^?1 · s^?1, ΔH≠ = (17 ± 1.5) kcal/mol, ΔS≠ = (?30 ± 4) eu. The possible origins of the relatively large rate ratios k₁/k₂ are discussed briefly.     

Water-Exchange Mechanism of Tetraaquapalladium(II). A Variable-Pressure and Variable-Temperature Oxygen-17 NMR Study

Water exchange of square-planar Pd(H₂O)²₄⁺ has been studied as a function of temperature (240 to 345 K) and pressure (0.1 to 260 MPa, at 324 K) by measuring the ^17/O-FT-NMR line-widths of the resonance from coordinated water at 27.11 and 48.78 MHz. The following exchange parameters were obtained: k²⁹⁸_ex = (560 ± 40) s^?1, ΔH* = (49.5 ± 1.9) kJ mol^?1, ΔS* = – (26 ± 6) J K^?1 mol^?1 and ΔV* = – (2.2 ± 0.2) cm³ mol^?1. The values refere to an aqueous perchlorate medium with an ionic strength between 2.0 and 2.6 m and a perchloric-acid concentration between 0.8 and 1.7 m, and are interpreted in terms of an associative (a) activation for the exchange. The exchange rate for Pd(H₂O)²₄⁺ is 1.4 × 10⁶ times faster than for Pt(H₂O)²₄⁺ at 298 K. A comparison with reactions between other nucleophiles and Pd(H₂O)²₄⁺ is also made.     

Kinetics of Stripping Ni(II) from the Ni‐BTMPPA Complex/BTMPPA/Kerosene System by Sulfate‐Acetato Solution

The kinetics of stripping of Ni²⁺ from a Ni‐BTMPPA complex, dissolved in a kerosene solution of BTMPPA (H₂A₂, Cyanex 272), by acidic sulfate‐acetato solution, was studied using the single (falling) drop technique and flux (F) method of data treatment. The empirical flux equation at 303 K is F_b (kmol/m²s) = 10^?4.35 [Ni²⁺] (1+10^?3.42 [H⁺]^?1)^?1 ([H₂A₂]_(o)^0.5+2.50 [H₂A₂]_(o))^?1 (1+6[SO₄^2?]) (1+3.20 [Ac^?]). Activation energy (E_a), entropy change in activation (ΔS^±), and enthalpy change in activation (ΔH^±) were measured under different experimental conditions. Based on the empirical flux equation, E_a and ΔS^±, the mechanism of Ni²⁺ stripping is provided. In a low [H⁺] region, the stripping reaction steps appear as [NiA⁺] → Ni²⁺ + A^? and [Ni(HA₂)₂]_(int) → [NiHA₂]⁺_(int) + HA_2(int)^? in lower and higher concentration regions of free BTMPPA, respectively, provided [SO₄^2?] and [Ac^?] are kept low. However, at higher [H⁺] concentrations, the stripping is under diffusion control. With increasing [SO₄^2?] and [Ac^?], the enhancement of the rate is attributed to the attack of the Ni(II) complex by SO₄^2? or HSO₄^? and Ac^? to form NiSO₄ or NiHSO₄⁺ and NiAc⁺ complexes. Negative ΔS^± values indicate that the rate‐determining stripping reaction steps occur via an substitution nucleophilic, bimolecular (S_N2) mechanism.     

A Remarkable Solvent Effect on the Nuclearity of Neutral Titanium(IV)‐Based Helicate Assemblies

The spontaneous self‐assembly of a neutral circular trinuclear Ti^IV‐based helicate is described through the reaction of titanium(IV) isopropoxide with a rationally designed tetraphenolic ligand. The trimeric ring helicate was obtained after diffusion of n‐pentane into a solution with dichloromethane. The circular helicate has been characterized by using single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction study, ¹³C CP‐MAS NMR and ¹H NMR DOSY solution spectroscopic, and positive electrospray ionization mass‐spectrometric analysis. These analytical data were compared with those obtained from a previously reported double‐stranded helicate that crystallizes in toluene. The trimeric ring was unstable in a pure solution with dichloromethane and transformed into the double‐stranded helicate. Thermodynamic analysis by means of the PACHA software revealed that formation of the double‐stranded helicates was characterized by ΔH(toluene)=?30 kJ mol^?1 and ΔS(toluene)=+357 J K^?1 mol^?1, whereas these values were ΔH(CH₂Cl₂)=?75 kJ mol^?1 and ΔS(CH₂Cl₂)=?37 J K^?1 mol^?1 for the ring helicate. The transformation of the ring helicate into the double‐stranded helicate was a strongly endothermic process characterized by ΔH(CH₂Cl₂)=+127 kJ mol^?1 and ΔH(n‐pentane)=+644 kJ mol^?1 associated with a large positive entropy change ΔS=+1115 J K^?1?mol^?1. Consequently, the instability of the ring helicate in pure dichloromethane was attributed to the rather high dielectric constant and dipole moment of dichloromethane relative to n‐pentane. Suggestions for increasing the stability of the ring helicate are given.

Kinetics and mechanism of decomposition of intermediate complex during oxidation of pectate polysaccharide by potassium permanganate in alkaline solutions

The kinetics of decomposition of an [Pect·Mn^VIO₄^2?] intermediate complex have been investigated spectrophotometrically at various temperatures of 15–30°C and a constant ionic strength of 0.1 mol dm^?3. The decomposition reaction was found to be first‐order in the intermediate concentration. The results showed that the rate of reaction was base‐catalyzed. The kinetic parameters have been evaluated and found to be ΔS^≠ = ? 190.06 ± 9.84 J mol^?1 K^?1, ΔH^≠ = 19.75 ± 0.57 kJ mol^?1, and ΔG^≠ = 76.39 ± 3.50 kJ mol^?1, respectively. A reaction mechanism consistent with the results is discussed. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 35: 67–72, 2003     

Thermodynamic studies of hydrogen iodide in dioxane-water mixtures from electromotive force measurements

The standard potentials of the silver-silver iodide electrode were measured in 10,20,30 and 40% (w/w) dioxane-water mixtures at 15,25,35 and 45°C. These values have been used to determine the thermodynamic quantities ΔG_t°, ΔS_t°, ΔH_t° for the transfer of H⁺I^? from water to various dioxane-water mixtures. The ionic ΔG_t° values for H⁺, Cl^?, Br^? and I^? are determined using Feakins method. The chemical and electrical contributions of ΔG_t° are also calculated using the method proposed by Roy and co-workers. The significance of these thermodynamic functions is discussed in relation to the acid—base character of the solvents.     

Thermodynamic activation parameters for viscous flow of aqueous solutions of butylamines

The thermodynamic activation parameters, enthalpies, ΔH?^≠, free energies, ΔG ^≠, and entropies, ΔS?^≠, for viscous flow of the systems, water (W)?+?n-butylamine (NBA), W?+?sec-butylamine (SBA) and W?+?tert-butylamine (TBA), have been determined by using the density and the viscosity data. These properties and their excess values have been represented graphically against their composition. With respect to the composition, ΔG ^≠ show a typical behaviour for all the systems – a fast rise in the water-rich region with a maximum followed by the values that decline up to the pure state of amines. The ΔH?^≠ and ΔS?^≠ versus composition curves follow the similar trend. For all systems the excess properties, ΔG ^≠E, ΔH ^?≠E and ΔS?^≠E are characterized by sharp maxima in the water-rich region, which are thought to be mainly due to the hydrophobic hydration and the hydrophilic effect.     

Possible tests for the mechanisms of ligand exchange in solids: The deaquation-anation of [Cr(NH3)5(H2O)]X3 salts

The possibility of using correlations of ΔH⁺ and ΔH, and of ΔH⁺ and ΔS⁺ to gain insight into the mechanisms of ligand-exchange reactions in solids are discussed. These correlations are tested using literature values for the deaquation-anation reactions of [Cr(NH₃)₅(H₂O)]X₃, where X^? = Cl^?, Br^?, I^? or NO^?₃. The poor agreement in the activation parameters reported in the literature precluded a meaningful test of the ΔH?ΔH^* correlation. This poor agreement suggests that these activation parameters are strongly influenced by experimental factors that have not been controlled in studies to date. nevertheless, there is a linear correlation of ΔH² and ΔS² which gives an isokinetic temperature of 367 ± 11 K. This isokinetic behavior suggests that the same mechanism is operative throughout the series.
