Cationic Heteroconjugation Constants in the OHN+ and NHO+ Systems in Propylene Carbonate: Dependence on Difference in Basicity

Cationic heteroconjugation equilibria of more than ninety systems consisting of substituted pyridines, their N-oxides, and trimethylamine N-oxide, i. e., in systems with mixed hydrogen bridges of type OHN⁺ (NHO⁺) were studied in propylene carbonate. Both experimental systems without proton transfer, BH⁺/B₁, and those with proton transfer, B₁H⁺/B, were explored. The stability of the mixed hydrogen bridges, OHN⁺ (NHO⁺), is compared with that of the OHC⁺-type bridges. The influence of the difference in basicity of the conjugate base of the proton donor and the proton acceptor on the presence of the proton transfer equilibria, and, consequently, the possibility of determination of the cationic heteroconjugation constant values is discussed.     

Enthalpies of Dilution of Aqueous Solutions of NaOH, KOH, and CsOH at 300, 325, and 350°C

Dilution enthalpies, measured using isothermal flow calorimetry, are reported for aqueous solutions of KOH and CsOH at 300°C and 11.0 MPa, 325°C and 14.8 MPa, and for aqueous solutions of NaOH, KOH, and CsOH at 350°C and 17.6 MPa. Previously collected dilution enthalpies for aqueous solutions of NaOH at 300°C and 9.3 MPa and at 325°C and 12.4 MPa were included when fitting the Pitzer parameters. The concentration range of the hydroxide solutions was 0.5–0.02 molal. Parameters for the Pitzer excess Gibbs ion-interaction equation were determined from the fits of the experimental heat data. Equilibrium constants, enthalpy changes, entropy changes, and heat capacity changes for alkali metal ion association with hydroxide ion were estimated from the heat data. For all systems, the enthalpy changes and entropy changes were positive and had accelerating increases with temperature. The resulting equilibrium constants show significant, but smaller, increases with temperature.

1-Ethoxycarbonyl-3-ferrocenyl-propane-1,3-dion and Ferrocene-1,1′bis(2,4-dioxobutanoic acid ethylester) as Ligands for Transition Metal Ions. Crystal Structure of Bis(1-ethoxycarbonyl-3-ferrocenyl-propane-1,3dionato)copper(II) The ligands 1-ethoxycarbonyl-3-ferrocenyl-propane-1,3-dion and ferrocene-1,1′-bis(2,4-dioxo-butanoic acid ethylester) have been prepared by reaction of acetylferrocene or 1,1′-diacetylferrocene and diethyl oxalate. They yield neutral chelates with Cu^II, Ni^II, Zn^II, Co^II, and Mn^II. The acid dissociation constants of the ligands and the stability constants of their metal complexes including Fe^II complexes are reported. The structure of bis(1-ethoxycarbonyl-3-ferrocenyl-propane-1,3-dionato)copper(II) was determined by X-ray structure analysis. A cis arrangement with a nearly square planar coordination sphere at the Cu atom is found.     

Study of the Complexation of Octakis(diethoxyphosphoryloxy)-tetramethylcalix[4]resorcinarene with Benzene Derivatives by the RP HPLC Method

Stability constants of the host–guest complexes of octakis(diethoxyphosphoryloxy) tetramethylcalix[4]resorcinarene (RA) with different benzene derivatives (alkyl benzenes, halogenated benzenes, substituted aldehydes, phenols and benzoic acids) were determined by the reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP HPLC) method (Separon SGX C 18, UV detector at 254 nm and acetonitrile-water, 86 : 14, v/v, as mobile phase) from the relationship between the aromatic guest capacity factors and the RA host concentration in the mobile phase. The constants are within the range 17–596 M^–1, dependent on the size, nature, position and quantity of the substituents in the benzene ring of the guest molecules.     

Influence of metal loading and humic acid functional groups on the complexation behavior of trivalent lanthanides analyzed by CE-ICP-MS

The complexation behavior of Aldrich humic acid (AHA) and a modified humic acid (AHA-PB) with blocked phenolic hydroxyl groups for trivalent lanthanides (Ln) is compared, and their influence on the mobility of Ln(III) in an aquifer is analyzed. As speciation technique, capillary electrophoresis (CE) was hyphenated with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). For metal loading experiments 25 mg L⁻¹ of AHA and different concentrations (c_Ln(Eu+Gd) = 100–6000 μg L⁻¹) of Eu(III) and Gd(III) in 10 mM NaClO₄ at pH 5 were applied. By CE-ICP-MS, three Ln-fractions, assumed to be uncomplexed, weakly and strongly AHA-complexed metal can be detected. For the used Ln/AHA-ratios conservative complex stability constants log β_LnAHA decrease from 6.33 (100 μg L⁻¹ Ln³⁺) to 4.31 (6000 μg L⁻¹ Ln³⁺) with growing Ln-content. In order to verify the postulated weaker and stronger humic acid binding sites for trivalent Eu and Gd, a modified AHA with blocked functional groups was used. For these experiments 500 μg L⁻¹ Eu and 25 mg L⁻¹ AHA and AHA-PB in 10 mM NaClO₄ at pH-values ranging from 3 to 10 have been applied. With AHA-PB, where 84% of the phenolic OH-groups and 40% of the COOH-groups were blocked, Eu complexation was significantly lower, especially at the strong binding sites. The log β-values decrease from 6.11 (pH 10) to 5.61 at pH 3 (AHA) and for AHA-PB from 6.01 (pH 7) to 3.94 at pH 3. As a potential consequence, particularly humic acids with a high amount of strong binding sites (e.g. phenolic OH- and COOH-groups) can be responsible for a higher metal mobility in the aquifer due to the formation of dissolved negatively charged metal-humate species.     

Development of hybrid elution systems for efficient purification of stilbenoids using centrifugal partition chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry

The phytochemical study of the root extract of the stilbenoid-rich Vitis riparia × Vitis berlandieri grapevine was carried out by centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC). For this reason, we developed a new elution mode we named back-step, which allowed us to obtain cleaner fractions and a more efficient separation process when used in conjunction with a classical elution approach. Three hydroxystilbenes: (E)-resveratrol, (E)-?-viniferin and (E)-vitisin C, with greater than 90% purity were thus obtained through such process, with minimal sample handling and purification steps. Online coupling of CPC to ESI mass spectrometry was used for optimization of the separation parameters and to facilitate the characterization of the stilbenoids. This study details the first phytochemical investigation of stilbenoids from the hybrid species together with a new elution mode able to widen the range of ARIZONA biphasic systems.     

Equilibrium studies of Mn(II), Mg(II), Ca(II), Sr(II) and Ba(II) withp-fluoro-,p-chloro-,p-bromo-,p-methyl-benzoylacetones and 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-pentanedione

The rawpH-data, obtained from the potentiometric titrations of the titled ligands with NaOH in 75% (v/v) dioxane-water mixture performed at 20, 30 and 40°C at constant ionic strength (=0.1M-NaClO₄), have been adequately corrected for dilution, and solvent effects in order to evaluate thermodynamic dissociation constants. Variance of the latter as a function of temperature has also been accounted for. The differing magnitudes of thermodynamic dissociation constants of the titled ligands have been explained on the basis of the non coplanar orientation of the phenyl ring in the ligands and a comparison has been made with those of unsubstituted benzoylacetone, dibenzoylmethane and acetylacetone.Following similar technique, thermodynamic stepwise and overall formation constants of the titled metal-ligand systems have been obtained and the results correlated with ligand basicity inverse metal crystal radii and second potentials of metals. Decrease in the free enthalpy (–G) of complexation reaction has also been evaluated.

Zusammenfassung Aus der potenitometrischen Titration der Titelverbindungen mit NaOH in 75 (v/v) Dioxan—Wasser bei, 20, 30 und 40°C bei konstanter Ionenstärke (=0,1M-NaClO₄) wurden die thermodynamischen Dissoziationskonstanten ermittelt. Verdünnungs-, Lösungsmittel-und Temperatureffekte wurden berücksichtigt. Die unterschiedlichen Dissoziationskonstanten werden mit der Nichtplanarität des Phenylrings in den Liganden erklärt. Außerdem wurden die Komplexbildungskonstanten bestimmt; sie sind in die Diskussion miteinbezogen.

     

Stereoselective adduct formation of α-acylcamphorato-copper(II) chelates with some chiral Lewis bases

The formation constants of the mono-adducts of α-acylcamphorato-copper(II) chelates such as (+)-Cu(facam)₂, (?)-Cu(facam)₂, (+)-Cu(hfbc)₂ and (?)-Cu(hfbc)₂ with some chiral Lewis bases were determined spectrophotometrically in benzene. In order to compare the adduct formation constants obtained with the (+)- and (?)-forms, some pairs of chiral Lewis bases such as 1-amino-2-propanol [(R)(?), (S)(+)], 1-(α-naphthyl)ethylamine [(R)(+), (S)(?)], α-phenyl ethylamine [(R)(+), (S)(?)] and also quinine and quinidine were examined as neutral ligands. Although not very pronounced, the effects of combinations obtained for (+)- or (?)-Cu(II) chelates and (+)- or (?)-ligands indicate that formation constants obtained by the formation of adducts with the ligands having different directions of the optical rotation seems to be superior to those with the same direction.
