Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy study of the effect of pH on anion and cation adsorption onto poly(acrylo‐amidino diethylenediamine)

The role of hydrogen bonding in the chemistry of transition‐metal complexes remains a topic of intense scientific and technological interest. Poly(acrylo‐amidino diethylenediamine) was synthesized to study the effects of hydrogen bonding on complexes at different pHs. The polymer was synthesized through the coupling of diethylene triamine with polyacrylonitrile fiber in the presence of AlCl₃ · 6H₂O addition. The adsorption capacity of this polymer was 11.4 mequiv/g. The ions used for the adsorption test were CrO, PO, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Fe²⁺, and Ag⁺. All experiments were confirmed with Fourier transform infrared. In the study of anion adsorption, at low pHs, only ionic bonds existed, whereas at high pHs, no bonds existed. However, in the middle pH region, both ionic bonds and hydrogen bonds formed between poly(acrylo‐amidino diethylenediamine) and the chromate ion or phosphate ion. When poly(acrylo‐amidino diethylenediamine) and metal ions (Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Fe²⁺, and Ag⁺) formed complexes, a hydrogen‐bonding effect was not observed with Fourier transform infrared. The quantity of metal ions adsorbed onto poly(acrylo‐amidino diethylenediamine) followed the order Ag⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Fe²⁺ > Ni²⁺. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Die Reaktion von Tellurhexafluorid mit Trimethylamin,Strukturen der TeF5−- und SeF5−-Anionen

Reaction of Telluriumhexafluoride and Trimethylamine, Structures of the TeF₅^? and SeF₅^? Anions The reaction of TeF₆ and (CH₃)₃N is of the redox kind, resulting in reduction of tellurium: X-ray single crystal analysis reveals the compounds (CH₃)₂N? CH₂? N(CH₃)₂⁺TeF₅^? and [(CH₃)₃NH⁺]₅(TeF₅^?)₃(HF₂^?)₂. By comparison with published data it can be shown that this mixture is identical to previously published [(CH₃)₃N]₂TeF₆. The latter was supposed to be one of the few examples of tellurium in a coordination state of eight. (CH₃)₄N⁺TeF₅^? and (CH₃)₄N⁴SeF₅^? are obtained and their structure is investigated by single crystal x-ray methods also. The anions SF₅^?, SeF₅^? and TeF₅^? are discussed in terms of weak interactions.     

Novel synthesis and properties of 7,9-dimethylcyclohepta[b]pyrimido[5,4-d]furan-8(7H),10(9H)-dionylium tetrafluoroborate: autorecycling oxidation of some alcohols under photo-irradiation

Three-step reactions starting from 2-chlorotropone with barbituric acid afforded novel 7,9-dimethylcyclohepta[b]pyrimido[5,4-d]furan-8(7H),10(9H)-dionylium tetrafluoroborate (9·BF₄⁻), which is the isoelectronic compound of the 5-ethyl-3-methyllumiflavinium ion. The stability of cation 9 is expressed by the pK_R+ value, which was determined spectrophotometrically, as ca. 6.0. The electrochemical reduction of 9 exhibited low reduction potential at −0.58 (V vs Ag/AgNO₃), upon cyclic voltammetry (CV). In a search for the reactivity, reactions of 9·BF₄⁻ with some nucleophiles, hydroxide, hydride, amines, thiols, and methanol, were carried out to exhibit that the introduction of nucleophiles is dependent on the nucleophile itself. The photo-induced oxidation reactions of some alcohols catalyzed by 9·BF₄⁻ under aerobic conditions were carried out to give the corresponding carbonyl compounds in more than 100% yield [based on compound 9·BF₄⁻], suggesting the oxidizing function of 9·BF₄⁻ toward alcohols in the autorecycling process. The UV-vis and fluorescence spectra of 9 were studied to suggest the electron transfer from alcohols to the excited 9.

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of [Mn（sapn）（H2O）2]Br

1 INTRODUCTION Many of the recent advances in the coordination chemistry of manganese have been driven by the involvement of the manganese in several biological redox-active systems[1,2], of which the most important is the oxygen-evolving complex (EOC) of photosystem II (PS II) in green plants [3]. Since the preparations and structural characterizations of the complexes containing N,O-donor ligands have been studied extensively as simple active-site models for the photosystem II[4,5]…     

Application of HPLC to measure vanadium in environmental,biological and clinical matrices

Vanadate and vanadium compounds exist in many environmental, biological and clinical matrices, and despite the need only limited progress has been made on the analysis of vanadium compounds. The vanadium coordination chemistry of different oxidation states is known, and the result of the characterization and speciation analysis depends on the subsequent chemistry and the methods of analysis. Many studies have used a range of methods for the characterization and determination of metal ions in a variety of materials. One successful technique is high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) that has been used mainly for measuring total vanadium level and metal speciation. Some cases have been reported where complexes of different oxidation states of vanadium have been separated by HPLC. Specifically reversed phase (RP) HPLC has frequently been used for the measurement of vanadium. Other HPLC methods such as normal phase, anion-exchange, cation-exchange, size exclusion and other RP-HPLC modes such as, ion-pair and micellar have been used to separate selected vanadium compounds. We will present a review that summarizes and critically analyzes the reported methods for analysis of vanadium salts and vanadium compounds in different sample matrices. We will compare various HPLC methods and modes including sample preparation, chelating reagents, mobile phase and detection methods. The comparison will allow us to identify the best analytical HPLC method and mode for measuring vanadium levels and what information such methods provide with regard to speciation and quantitation of the vanadium compounds.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of 2-Chloromethyl-1H-benzimidazole Nitrate, [ClCH_2(C_7H_6N_2)]NO_3

1 INTRODUCTION Benzimidazole is an interesting heterocyclic compound because it is found in various naturally occurring drugs, such as omeprazole, astemizole and emedastine difumarate[1]. The efficacy of sub- stituted benzimidazoles in the treatment of parasitic infections is well known[2～4]. Substituted benzimid- azole moieties are established pharmacophores in parasitic chemotherapy. Bis(2-benzimidazole) and some substituted bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)alkanes have attracted much interest …     

Substitution-Inert Metal Complex Mobile Phases in Non-Suppressed Cation Chromatography

Substitution-inert metal complexes, [Co(edda)(H₂O)₂]⁺, (Co(edda)(en)]⁺, [Co(edda)(dmen)]⁺, [Co(en)₂-(gly)]²⁺, [Co(en)₂(acac)]²⁺, and [Co(trien)(gly)]²⁺ in their nitrate salt solutions are used as eluents in nonsuppressed cation chromatography (where edda = ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic acid, en = ethylenediamine, dmen = N,N′-dime-thylethylenediamine, gly = glycine, acac = acetylacetone, and trien = triethylenetetraamine). It is found that all the mono- and di-valent charged complexes can be used to separate alkali and alkaline earth metal cations, respectively. The separations for monovalent cations are sometimes comparable to those using ultrapure HNO₃ solutions. However, the divalent Ca²⁺ and Sr²⁺ ions cannot be resolved using the metal complex eluents. On the other hand, a selected, direct non-suppressed IC separation of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) ions is demonstrated for the first time using a substitution-inert metal complex eluent and a conductivity detector. Comparisons of these eluents with those reported previously, i. e. HNO₃ and ethylenediammonium salt solution are made and explanations are proposed to account for the different selectivities observed where possible. The future development of this technique is also briefly discussed.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a novel manganese(II)-nitronyl nitroxide-azido(μ_(1,1) and μ_(1,3)) one-dimensional complex

A novel one-dimensional manganese(Ⅱ) complex containing nitronyl nitroxide radical [Mn2(IM2-py)2(Ac)2((μ1.1-N3)(μ1,3-N3) . EtOH]n was synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group p21/n. Each Mn(Ⅱ) ion is six-coordinated in a distorted octahedral environment. The two N atoms of the nitronyl nitroxide radical and the two O atoms of acetate ligands are in the equatorial plane, whereas the two different azido bridging ligands are in trans axial position. Mn(Ⅱ) ions are linked by nitrogen atom of μ1,1-azido and oxygen atoms of two carboxy groups to form a Mn-Mn unit. Mn-Mn units are linked by azido ligands through u1,3 bridging style to form a one-dimensional chain. The compound is connected by the coordination bonds,π-π interactions and hydrogen bonds as a three-dimensional structure. Magnetic susceptibility data support that there are stronger antiferromagnetic interactions between the radical and Mn(Ⅱ) ion, weak antiferromagnetic inter     

Structural Relationships between the Hemiporphyrazine Macrocyclic Ligand and its Metal Complexes. II.: Planar Neutral Ligand,C26H16N8, and Four Isomorphous Metal Complexes, [M(C26H16N8)(H2O)], M=Mn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II)

Crystal and molecular structures of the planar neutral ligand, C₂₆H₁₆N₈, and the four isomorphous five-coordinated metal complexes, [M(C₂₆H₁₆N₈)(H₂O)], M = Mn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), have been determined from three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data. The free ligand hpH₂, C₂₆H₁₆N₈, belongs to the P 2₁/c space group with Z=2, a=4.142(3), b=23.736(6), c=10.338(3) Ä, β=94.66(6)°. The metal complexes monohydrate Mhp-H₂O all belong to the orthorhombic Pcab space group with Z=8. The dimensions are roughly 8.8×19.3×23.7 ų. In each structure, the macrocyclic ligand has an almost planar conformation which differs from the saddle shaped ligand hydrate (hpH₂·H₂O) and the nickel complex [Nihp]⁵. The distances from the center of the macrocyclic ring to the nitrogen atom of the free ligand are 1.907(6) and 2.245(6)Å. The coordination geometry in these four complexes is square pyramidal with a water molecule as an axial ligand. The bond distances of M(II)-O(H₂O), M(II)-N1 (imine), M(II)-N3 (pyridine) are: 2.19(1), 2.00(2), 2.27(2)Å respectively for the manganese complex; 2.08(1), 1.97(1), 2.23(1)Å for the cobalt complex; 2.33(1), 1.92(3), 2.18(1)Å for the copper complex; 2.110(5), 1.964(6), 2.252(6)Å for the zinc complex. The variation of metal-ligand distances can be correlated to the metal d orbital occupancy. A comparison with similar ligands will be presented.
