Copper(I) and silver(I) complexes of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 2-ethylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole

The following copper(I) and silver(I) complexes of 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole (atz) and 2-ethylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazole (eatz) have been prepared and studied by conductometric, IR and Raman methods: CuXL(X = Cl, Br, I; L = atz, eatz), CuXL₃(X = ClO₄, NO₃; L = atz, eatz), AgClO₄·1.5atz·1/3 EtOH, AgNO₃·2.5atz, AgClO₄·3eatz, AgNO₃·eatz. The ligands are bonded through the amine nitrogen atoms with ν(MN) bands in the 520–410 cm^?1 region. The CuXL complexes have a trigonal (N, 2X_b) coordination with a probable weaker axial interaction. The CuXL₃ and AgCIO₄·3eatz complexes probably have a trigonal pyramidal (3N,O) coordination. In the atz complexes of silver perchlorate and nitrate some ligand molecules are bridging. The AgNO₃·2.5atz complex is likely to have a dimeric structure with tetrahedral coordination of the silver ion.     

Chemical models of the hydrophobic interaction: Apparent molal volumes and heat capacities of three symmetrical bolaform electrolytes and their homologous monomers in aqueous solution at 25°C

The densities and volumetric specific heats of aqueous solutions of Bu₃NHBr, Pent₃NHCl, and three diazonium salts, HN?Oct₃?NHBr₂, HN?Dec₃?NHCl₂, and Bu₃N?Oct?NBu₃Br₂, have been measured at 25°C. From these data, the apparent molal volumes φ _v and apparent molal heat capacities φ _c have been calculated and are reported here. In the series of compounds chosen, the diazonium (higher homologs) can be regarded as dimers of the alkyl-substituted ammonium ions (lower homologs), and these systems are examined as chemical models for the hydrophobic interaction. With the three homologous pairs studied here, the chemical model predicts that the strong interaction (limitingly, chemical binding) of two hydrocarbon chains in water leads to a major decrease in both φ _v and φ _c of the interacting solutes, ca.?22 cm³-mole^?1 and ?200 J-^oK^?1-mole^?1. These predictions constitute limiting behavior — useful, but not sufficient, to explain the observed concentration dependence of φ _v and φ _c in aqueous solutions of the lower homologs Bu₃NHBr, Pent₃NHCl, and Bu₄NBr. An explanation for the concentration dependence of φ _c is suggested with reference to ultrasonic relaxation data.     

Cesium chromate,Cs2CrO4: heat capacity and thermodynamic properties from 5 to 350 K

The heat capacity of a sample of Cs₂CrO₄ was determined in the temperature range 5 to 350 K by aneroid adiabatic calorimetry. The heat capacity at constant pressure C_p^o(298.15 K), the entropy S^o(298.15 K), the enthalpy {H^o(298.15 K) - H^o(0)} and the function $\text{? {G}{}^{\mathrm{o}}\text{(298.15}\text{K}\text{) - H}{}^{\mathrm{o}}\text{(0)}}\text{298.15}\text{K}$ were found to be (146.06 ± 0.15) J K^?1 mol^?1, (228.59 ± 0.23) J K^?1 mol^?1, (30161 ± 30) J mol^?1, and (127.43 ± 0.13) J K^?1 mol^?1, respectively. The heat capacity C_p^o(298.15 K) and entropy S^o(298.15 K) and entropy S^o(298.15 K) of Rb₂CrO₄ are estimated to be (146.0 ± 1.0) J K^?1 mol^?1 and (217.6 ± 3.0) J K^?1 mol^?1, respectively.     

The standard enthalpies of formation of cyclohexylamine and cyclohexylamine hydrochloride

The standard enthalpy of combustion of cyclohexylamine has been measured in an aneroid rotating-bomb calorimeter. The value ΔH_o^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂, 1) = ?(4071.3 ± 1.3) kJ mol^?1 yields the standard enthalpy of formation ΔH_f^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂, 1) = ?(147.7 ± 1.3) kJ mol^?1. The corresponding gas-phase standard enthalpy of formation for cyclohexylamine is ΔH_f^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂, g) = ?(104.9 ± 1.3) kJ mol^?1. The standard enthalpy of formation of cyclohexylamine hydrochloride, ΔH_f^o(c-C₆H₁₁NH₂·HCl, c) = ?(408.2 ± 1.5) kJ mol^?1, was derived by combining the measured enthalpy of solution of the salt in water, literature data, and the ΔH_c^o measured in this study. Comment is made on the thermochemical bond enthalpy H(CN).

A thoroughly analyzed specimen of β-uranium disulfide of composition US_1.992±0.002 has been studied by fluorine-bomb calorimetry.

The standard molar enthalpy of formation: Δ_fH_m^o(US_1.992, cr, β, 298.15 K) = ?(519.7±8.0) kJ·mol^?1 was derived, and from that result Δ_fH_m^o(US₂, cr, 298.15 K) = ?(521±8) kJ·mol^?1 is estimated.     

Molecular structure and conformation of gaseous chloroacetyl chloride as determined by electron diffraction

Chloroacetyl chloride is studied by gas-phase electron diffraction at nozzle-tip tempera- tures of 18, 110 and 215°C. The molecules exist as a mixture of anti and gauche confor- mers with the anti form the more stable. The composition (mole fraction) of the vapor with uncertainties estimated at 2σ is found to be 0.770 (0.070), 0.673 (0.086) and 0.572 (0.086) at 18, 110 and 215°C, respectively. These values correspond to an energy difference with estimated standard deviation ΔE^o = E^o_g -E^o_a = 1.3 ± 0.4 kcal mol^?1 and an entropy difference ΔS^o = S^o_g -S^o_a = 0.7 ± 1.1 cal mol^?1 K^?1. Certain of the diffraction results permit the evaluation of an approximate torsional potential function of the form 2V = V₁(1 - cos φ) + V₂(1 - cos 2φ) + V₃(1 - cos 3φ); the results are V₁ = 1.19 ± 0.33, V₂ = 0.56 ± 0.20 and V₃ = 0.94 ± 0.12, all in kcal mol^?1. The results for the distance (r_a), angle (_∠α) and r.m.s. amplitude parameters obtained at the three temperatures are entirely consistent. At 18°C the more important parameters are, with estimated uncertainties of 2σ, r(C-H) = 1.062(0.030) Å, r(CO) = 1.182(0.004) Å, r(C-C) = 1.521(0.009) Å. r(CO-Cl) = 1.772(0.016) Å, r(CH₂-Cl) = 1.782(0.018) Å, ∠C-C-0 = 126.9(0.9)°, ∠CH₂-CO-C1 = 110.0(0.7)°,∠CO-CH₂-C1 = 112.9(1–7)°, ∠H-C-H = 109.5° (assumed), ∠φ (gauche torsion angle relative to 0° for the anti form) = 116.4(7.7)°, δ (r.m.s. amplitude of torsional vibration in the anti conformer) == 17.5(4.2)°.     

Fourier transform-ion cyclotron resonance study of the gas-phase acidities of germane and methylgermane; Bond dissociation energy of germane

An accurate gas-phase acidity for germane (enthalpy scale, equivalent to the proton affinity of GeH₃ ^?), ΔH _acid ^o(GeH₄) = 1502.0 ± 5.1 kJ mol^?1, is obtained by constructing a consistent acidity ladder between GeH₄, and H₂S by using Fourier transform-ion cyclotron resonance spectrometry, and 0 and 298.15 K values for the first bond dissociation energy of GeH₄ are proposed: D₀ ^o(H₃Ge-H) = 352 ± 9 kJ mol^?1; D ^o(H₃Ge-H) = 358 ± 9 kJ mol^?1, respectively. These results are compared with experimental and theoretical data reported in the literature. Methylgermane was found to be a weaker acid than germane by approximately 35 kJ mol^?1: ΔH _acid ^o = 1536.6 kJ mol^?1.     

A new approach to electron diffraction analysis of symmetric triatomic molecules with large-amplitude bending motion: The equilibrium geometry,force field and vibrational frequencies of BaI2 as determined by electron diffraction

Diffraction data on BaI₂, analyzed by a new approach, indicate an anharmonic potential with a barrier of 71(12) cm^?1 at a linear geometry. The structural and vibrational parameters were found to be r_e^h(Ba-I_o) = 3.150(7)Å, ∠_eIBaI = 148.0(9) °, f_q = 0.69(8) mdyn/Å,f_qq= 0.14(6) mdyn/Å, k₂ = ?0.0075(15) mdyn/Å, k₄ = 0.0025(9) mdyn/ų, v₁ = 106(12) cm^?1 and v₃ = 145(21) cm^?1. The bending frequency v₂ is predicted to be near 16 cm^?1.     

Standard molar enthalpies of formation of KCdCl3 and K4CdCl6 by high-temperature drop calorimetry

Enthalpies of the synthesis reactions of the two compounds KCdCl₃(cr) and K₄CdCl₆(cr) from KCl(cr) and CdCl₂(cr) have been measured by drop calorimetry of solid samples of KCl, CdCl₂, KCdCl₃, and K₄CdCl₆ into melted mixtures of KCl and CdCl₂. For the two reactions: (1), CdCl₂(cr)+KCl(cr) = KCdCl₃(cr); and (2), CdCl₂(cr)+4KCl(cr) = K₄CdCl₆(cr), the experiments lead to the two standard molar enthalpies of reaction at 298.15 K: Δ₁H_m^o = ?(21.7±1.0) kJ·mol^?1 and Δ₂H_m^o = ?(39.0±3.8) kJ·mol^?1. These values are not in good agreement with those of previous workers.     

Structures of the silver complexes with lutidines according to the NMR data. Crystal structure of [AgNO3(3,5-Lut)2]

The silver(I) nitrate complexes with 2,3-, 2,4-, 2,6-, and 3,5-lutidine (Lut, dimethylpyridine C₇H₉N), [AgNO₃(Lut)₂], are synthesized and studied by multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N) in various solvents (chloroform, dimethyl sulfoxide, and acetonitrile). The influence of steric and electronic factors of the organic ligand on the parameters of the NMR spectra is revealed. It is shown that the ¹⁵N NMR spectra are the most informative. The structure of complex [AgNO₃(3,5-Lut)₂] is determined. The crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 14.599(1) Å, b = 8.422(1) Å, c = 12.954(1) Å, β = 99.60(1)°, V = 1570(2) ų, ρ_calcd = 1.625 g/cm³, Z = 4. The structure is built of discrete neutral complexes [AgNO₃(3,5-Lut)₂]. The coordination mode of the Ag⁺ ion includes two nitrogen atoms of two crystallographically equivalent lutidine ligands (Ag-N 2.194(5) Å, angle NAgN 147.6(3)°). The nitrate ion behaves as a weak chelating ligand with respect to the Ag⁺ ion (Ag…O 2.674(6) Å).     

A thermodynamic investigation of the nickel(II) chloride-acetonitrile system

Equilibrium vapor pressures were determined at temperatures between 294 K and 353 K for the NiCl₂-CH₃CN system.Compositions studied ranged from molar ratios of CH₃CN to NiCl₂ of 0.27 to 1.90. Three stoichiometric compounds were identified: NiCl₂(CH₃CN)₂, NiCl₂(CH₃CN), NiCl₂(CH₃CN)0.88. Per mole of gaseous CH₃CN the values of ΔH^o and ΔS^o were calculated to be 52.0 ±0.4 kJ mol^?1 and 149.0±1.3 J mol^?1 K^?1 for the decomposition of NiCl₂(CH₃CN)₂, and 25.9 ±0.8 kJ mol^?1 and 58.6± 2.1 J mol^?1 K^?1 for the decomposition of NiCl₂(CH₃CN). Below a composition of NiCl₂(CH₃CN)_0.88 the phase diagram is complex and could not be interpreted in terms of specific stoichiometric compounds.     

Thermodynamic properties of alkali halides. IV. Apparent molal volumes,expansibilities, compressibilities,and heat capacities in urea-water mixtures

The apparent molal volume φ_v, expansibility φ_E, compressibility φ_K, and heat capacity φ_c of NaCl were measured in urea-water mixtures, as a function of salt (<1.5m) and urea (<13m) concentrations at 25°C. At a fixed urea concentration, the transfer functions from H₂O to 3m urea are linear functions of the NaCl aquamolality. At a fixed salt aquamolality, (0.1m), the sign of the transfer functions is in the direction of a decrease in the structure-breaking effect, and the absolute values of the transfer functions tend to level off at high urea concentrations (13m). The functions φ_v, φ_E, φ_K, φ_c, and (?φ_v/?T)_p were measured for the sodium halides and alkali, bromides (chlorides in the case of φ_K) at a fixed salt aquamolality of 0.1m and fixed urea molality of 3m. The corresponding transfer functions from H₂O to 3m urea are opposite those from H₂O to D₂O and similarly are relatively independent of ionic size. This suggests that urea, shows no specific interaction affinity for ions and that the overall number of water molecules influenced by the ions is relatively constant for all alkali halides. The lithium halides are an exception in that Li⁺ seems to have hardly any structure-breaking effect.     

The low-temperature (5 to 310 K) heat capacity and thermodynamic functions of cesium fluoroxysulfate (CsSO4F) and the standard potential at 298.15 K for the half-reaction: SO4F−(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2e− = HSO4−(aq) + HF(aq)

The low-temperature (5 to 310 K) heat capacity of cesium fluoroxysulfate, CsSO₄F, has been measured by adiabatic calorimetry. At T = 298.15 K, the heat capacity C_p^o(T) and standard entropy S^o(T) are (163.46±0.82) and (201.89±1.01) J · K^?1 · mol^?1, respectively. Based on an earlier measurement of the standard enthalpy of formation ΔH_f^o the Gibbs energy of formation ΔG_f^o(CsSO₄F, c, 298.15 K) is calculated to be ?(877.6±1.6) kJ · mol^?1. For the half-reaction: SO₄F^?(aq)+2H⁺(aq)+2e^? = HSO₄^?(aq)+HF(aq), the standard electrode potential E at 298.15 K, is (2.47±0.01) V.     

Determination of molar extinction coefficients for endohedral metallofullerene Dy@C<Subscript>82</Subscript>(C<Subscript>2v</Subscript>)

Isomerically pure endohedral metallofullerene Dy@C₈₂(C _2v) was synthesized by the electric arc method, extracted from the soot with o-dichlorobenzene, isolated from the extract by HPLC, and characterized by mass spectrometry and spectrophotometry. The spectrophotometric titration of a solution of endohedral metallofullerene Dy@C₈₂(C _2v) was conducted with potassium perchlorotriphenylmethide. The concentration of Dy@C82(C _2v) in o-dichlorobenzene was determined, and the molar absorption coefficients for its neutral and anionic forms were calculated (3.0?10³ (at 927 nm) and 4.0?10³ mol^–1 L cm^–1 (at 884 nm), respectively.     

The enthalpies of formation of CH3Mn(CO)5 and of CH3Re(CO)5, and the strengths of the CH3Mn and CH3Re bonds

From measurements of the heats of iodination of CH₃Mn(CO)₅ and CH₃Re(CO)₅ at elevated temperatures using the ‘drop’ microcalorimeter method, values were determined for the standard enthalpies of formation at 25° of the crystalline compounds: ΔH^o_f[CH₃Mn(CO)₅, c] = ?189.0 ± 2 kcal mol^?1 (?790.8 ± 8 kJ mol^?1), ΔH^o_f[Ch₃Re(CO)₅,c] = ?198.0 ± kcal mol^?1 (?828.4 ± 8 kJ mo^?1). In conjunction with available enthalpies of sublimation, and with literature values for the dissociation energies of MnMn and ReRe bonds in Mn₂(CO)₁₀ and Re₂(CO)₁₀, values are derived for the dissociation energies: D(CH₃Mn(CO)₅) = 27.9 ± 2.3 or 30.9 ± 2.3 kcal mol^?1 and D(CH₃Re(CO)₅) = 53.2 ± 2.5 kcal mol^?1. In general, irrespective of the value accepted for D(MM) in M₂(CO)₁₀, the present results require that, D(CH₃Mn) = $\text{1}\text{2}$D(MnMn) + 18.5 kcal mol^?1 and D(CH₃Re) = $\text{1}\text{2}$D(ReRe) + 30.8 kcal mol^?1.     

Thermophysics of alkali and related azides II. Heat capacities of potassium,rubidium, cesium,and thallium azides from 5 to 350 K

The heat capacities of potassium, rubidium, cesium, and thallium azides were determined from 5 to 350 K by adiabatic calorimetry. Although the alkali-metal azides studied in this work exhibited no thermal anomalies over the temperature range studied, thallium azide has a bifurcated anomaly with two maxima at (233.0±0.1) K and (242.04±0.02) K. The associated excess entropy was 0.90 cal_th K^?1 mol^?1. The thermal properties of the azides and the corresponding structurally similar hydrogen difluorides are nearly identical. Both have linear symmetrical anions. However, thallium azide shows a solid-solid phase transition not exhibited by thallium hydrogen difluoride. At 298.15 K the values of C_p^o, S^o, and $\text{?{G}{}^{\mathrm{o}}\text{(T)?H}{}^{\mathrm{o}}\text{(0)}}\text{T}$, respectively, are 18.38, 24.86, and 12.676 cal_th K^?1 mol^?1 for potassium azide; 19.09, 28.78, and 15.58 cal_th K^?1 mol^?1 for rubidium azide; 19.89, 32.11, and 18.17 cal_th K^?1 mol^?1 for cesium azide; and 19.26, 32.09, and 18.69 cal_th K^?1 mol^?1 for thallium azide. Heat capacities at constant volume for KN₃ were deduced from infrared and Raman data.     

The vapour pressure,orthobaric volumes,and critical constants of tetramethylsilane

The vapour pressure and orthobaric molar volumes of tetramethylsilane have been messured from 373 K to the critical temperature, and the critical temperature (IPTS-68: T^{o = 448.64 K}), critical pressure (p^{c = 2821 kPa}), and critical molar volume (V_m^c = 361 cm³ mol^?1) have been determined.     

Thermodynamic properties of molybdenum pentafluoride vapor

There are calculated for 298 K and higher temperatures the standard entropies of the liquid and the important gas species (monomer, dimer, and trimer) of MoF₅, and their differences in enthalpy and Gibbs energy. Besides estimated mean heat capacities, the input data are: the vapor pressure at one temperature and the saturated-vapor density at two temperatures (based on measurements in this laboratory); the standard entropies of the three gas species (estimated from published spectroscopic data on the crystal and monomer); and an ion-abundance proportion (from a published mass-spectral study). This ion proportion is corrected for fragmentation after demonstrating that changes in the ion proportions for a similar fluoride, RhF₅, can be explained by assuming that the rates of fragmentation of the dimer and trimer are equal. For those input data considered most uncertain (the vapor pressure, the entropies of dimer and trimer, and the ratios of mass-spectral ionization efficiencies) several sets of values covering their respective estimated ranges of uncertainty are used alternatively in the calculations. Results at 298.15 K—expressed in the form “preferred value (probable range due to uncertainty)”, with H^o and G^o relative to the liquid, and S^o—are as follows: liquid, S^o = 46 (44.5 to 49) cal_th K^?1 mol^?1; monomer, H^o = 19 (17 to 22) kcal_th mol^?1, G^o = 8.5 (7.5 to 11.5) kcal_th mol^?1, S^o = 80.6 cal_thK^?1; dimer, H^o = 15.7 (15 to 16) kcal_th mol^?1, G^o = 6.48 (6.45 to 6.51) kcal_th mol^?1, S^o = 123 (121 to 127) cal_th K^?1 mol^?1; trimer, H^o = 17.7 (16 to 21) kcal_th mol^?1, G^o = 8.4 (8.1 to 8.7) kcal_th mol^?1, S^o = 169 (161 to 185) cal_th K^?1 mol^?1. The calculated mole fractions of monomer, dimer, and trimer in the saturated vapor at 298.15 K average 0.027, 0.94, and 0.035, respectively.     

Spectrophotometric study of complexes of mercury(II) with mono- and dithiosemicarbazones

The formation of complexes at pH 4.7 of the Hg(II) with five monothiosemicarbazone and two dithiosemicarbazone has been studied. The mercury(II) reacts with monothiosemicarbazones of salicylaldehyde (λ_max = 363 nm, E = 1.69 × 10⁴liters · mol^?1cm^?1), pi-colinadehyde (λ_max = 363 nm, E = 2.38 × 10⁴liters · mol^?1cm^?1), 6-methyl-picolinaldehyde (λ_max = 363 nm, E = 2.28 × 10⁴liters · mol^?1cm^?1), di-2-pyridylketone (λ_max = 380 nm, E = 2.08 × 10⁴liters · mol^?1cm^?1), and o-naphthoquinone (λ_max = 540 nm, E = 1.03 × 10⁴liters · mol^?1cm^?1) and with dithiosemicarbazones of 1,4-dihydroxyphthalimide (λ_max = 430 nm, E = 2.56 × 10⁴liters · mol^?1cm^?1) and dipyridylglyoxal (λ_max = 363 nm, E = 2.37 × 10⁴liters · mol^?1cm^?1). A critical comparison of the stoichiometry and apparent stability constant of complexes with mono- and dithiosemicarbazones is given.     

Thermodynamics of the lanthanide halides I. Heat capacities and Schottky anomalies of LaCl3, PrCl3, and NdCl3 from 5 to 350 K

The heat capacities of LaCl₃, PrCl₃, and NdCl₃ have been measured from 5 to 350 K by adiabatic calorimetry. No co-operative thermal anomalies were seen in the temperature range investigated but substantial magnetic heat-capacity contributions of the non-cooperative (Schottky) type were found. Subtraction of the heat capacity of the diamagnetic and isostructural LaCl₃ from those of the paramagnetic members yields experimental Schottky heat-capacity contributions which are compared with heat capacities derived from spectroscopically determined energy levels. Small discrepancies between the calculated and experimental contributions are probably due to differences in lattice heat capacities between LaCl₃ and the others. The values of {(S^o(298.15 K) ? S^o(0)}/cal_th K^?1 mol^?1 are for LaCl₃ and NdCl₃, 32.88 and 36.67. Due to the possibility of a low-temperature phase transition, the entropy of PrCl₃ covers only the experimental range of this research and that of Colwell, Mangum, and Utton. {S^o(298.15 K) ? S^o(0.294 K)} for PrCl₃ is 36.64 cal_th K^?1 mol^?1.
