The luminescence characteristics of hydrated Ln³⁺ ions and their complexes with some acidic ligands have been investigated. The possibility of determining the stability of the complexes of lanthanides in solutions from the intensity of luminescence bands is shown.

抗肿瘤药物氮三乙酰肼和金属离子配位能力的研究

本文研究了抗癌药物氮三乙酰肼(Nitrilotriacetic hydrizide,NTH)和生命必需元素以及Al~(3 ),Ga~(3 ),In~(3 )的配位能力并用pH电位法测定了它们在生理条件下(37℃,Ⅰ=150mM dm~(-3)NaCl)的配合物生成常数。电位滴定数据是用ZPLOT,MINIQUAD,ESTA等计算机程序处理的。实验结果表明NTH与它的非生理活性的母体化合物氮三乙酸相比较,对Zn~(2 ),Mn~(2 )等过渡元素的配位能力表现较大的差异性。这种情况在Revercan,ICRF-198,ICRF-236和5-烯去甲基斑蝥酸等其他抗肿瘤活性化合物中也曾观察到。 NTH与三价金属Fe~(3 ),Ga~(3 ),Al(3 )和In~(3 )等有较大的配位能力,这与它的烯醇式结构有关。由于这些配合物在广泛的pH范围内生成,以及它的高稳定性,因此有可能被用作为肿瘤定位试剂或生物体营养元素铁传输的有效载体。     

Metallic Particles from Complexing Microcapsules Dispersed in a Silica Gel

A new process to control the distribution of metal nanoparticles is proposed. It involves the use of complexing microcapsules obtained by interfacial polycondensation. The latter are hollow spheres constituted of a polymer membrane, containing an insoluble active ingredient, such as a polyacrylic acid, which can complex Co²⁺ ions. These capsules are dispersed in a silica sol followed by thermal treatments and reduction under H₂ which results in metallic Co nanoparticles confined in the capsules domains. The particles do not diffuse in the matrix.     

Selective Formation of Spinel Iron Oxide in Thin Films by Complexing Agent-Assisted Sol-Gel Processing

The structure of iron oxide was controlled by regulating the hydrolytic polymerization of aquo iron complexes with organic polydentate ligands such as diols. Iron oxides were prepared by calcining the precursor polymers obtained from iron nitrate nonahydrate and diols. When the diols were 1,2-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol and 1,2-octanediol, α-Fe₂O₃ with corundum structure appeared exclusively or as the main crystalline phase, in spite of the amount of diol used and the calcination temperature. In the case of 1,2-decanediol and 1,2-dodecanediol, when five moles of the diols were used to one mole of iron nitrate and the calcination temperatures were below 400°C, ψ-Fe₂O₃ with spinel structure appeared as the main phase and, when less than five moles of the diols were used, α-Fe₂O₃ appeared exclusively or as the main phase, irrespective of the calcination temperature. This tendency was also observed in thin films. Thus, a transparent magnetic film composed of γ-Fe₂O₃ could be prepared by applying a benzene solution of the iron polymer, obtained with 5 equivalents of 1,2-decanediol, on quartz and calcining the gel film at 350°C.     

The drawing behavior of Y-Ba-Cu-O sol from non-aqueous solution by a complexing process

A complexing process is developed to prepare Y-Ba-Cu-O superconducting fibers. The process is not identical to typical sol-gel processes; here the resulting gel network is built up by hydrogen bonding linkage among complexing species in non-aqueous solution. Cu acetate, [Cu(OAC)₂], Ba methoxyethoxide [Ba(ORE)₂] and Y acetate [Y(OAC)₃] are used as precursors for preparing homogeneous gels while -methacrylic acid (HOAA) and diethylenetriamine (DETA) as complexing agents, and methoxyethanol (REOH) as solvent. Fibers drawn from a sol obtained through reduced pressure present no or little deformation at 80°MoC via adjusting the amount of DETA and HOAA. Cu(OAC)₂, Ba(ORE)₂ and Y(OAC)₃ in the complexing process have been demonstrated to form gels without hydrolysis and condensation at ambient atmosphere. The relationships between the drawing behavior of sols and gel structure with different amounts of DETA and HOAA are suggested. The concentration region of drawing the gel fibers with no or little deformation heated at 80°MoC is also found.

Optimization of alkali-alkalkine earth cation separation on weak cation-exchangers

Summary The elution behavior of alkali and earth alkaline cations has been studied on a newly synthesized weak cationexchanger (WCX). Applying this stationary phase isocratic separation of these cations is possible. The dependence of retention on competing ion concentration is described via a simple model. The influence of crown ethers as well as organic eluent additives on selectivity and peak efficiency is demonstrated. With optimized separation such cations can be determined with detection limits of about 0.5 ppm using a conductivity detector without ion suppression.     

Silicon polypodands: powerful metal cation complexing agents and solid-liquid phase-transfer catalysts of new generation

Silicon polypodands 5-7 are found to be powerful complexing agents of alkali metal salts in low polarity solvents and very efficient catalysts in anion-promoted reactions under solid-liquid PTC conditions. The catalytic activity is comparable with that of the cyclic polyether PHDB18C6 8.     

Toxic metal complexes of macrocyclic cyclen molecule – synthesis,structure and complexing properties

Toxic metal (Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, Pb²⁺, and Ag⁺) complexes with the tetradentate macrocyclic ligand - cyclen (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane, [12]aneN₄, L) were prepared and studied in the solid state by IR, X-ray diffraction, elemental and thermal analysis. Diffraction results have yielded three molecular structures, [Cd([12]ane-κ⁴N^1,4,7,10)(NO₃)₂)] (1), [Hg([12]ane-κ⁴N^1,4,7,10)(NO₃-κ²O,O`)]NO₃ (2), [Pb₂([12]ane-κ⁴N^1,4,7,10)₂][Pb(NO₃)₆] (3) and one polymeric structure {[Ag₂([12]ane-κ³N^1,4,7)(μ₂-[12]aneN¹⁰)](NO₃)₂?2H₂O)}_n (4) featuring a unique coordination mode not observed before with cyclen as a ligand. The monodentate (1) and chelate (with small bite angle 50.3(3)°, (2) coordination modes of nitrate ligands were confirmed. Stereochemically active 6s² lone pair was suggested in 3 and DFT results confirmed no significant metal–metal covalent bond. The stability constants of the complexes with Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions were determined by potentiometric methods in aqueous solutions. Additionally, the structures of complexes in solution were observed by ¹H NMR. Both methods confirm similar cyclen complexing properties toward Zn²⁺ biometal and Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺ toxic metals.     

Solid phase extraction of copper(II) by fixed bed procedure on cation exchange complexing resins

The efficiency of the metal ion recovery by solid phase extraction (SPE) in complexing resins columns is predicted by a simple model based on two parameters reflecting the sorption equilibria and kinetics of the metal ion on the considered resin. The parameter related to the adsorption equilibria was evaluated by the Gibbs–Donnan model, and that related to the kinetics by assuming that the ion exchange is the adsorption rate determining step. The predicted parameters make it possible to evaluate the breakthrough volume of the considered metal ion, Cu(II), from different kinds of complexing resins, and at different conditions, such as acidity and ionic composition.
