Abstract: | The complexes [Fe(tdci)2]Cl3 and [Al(tdci)2]Cl3 (tdci = 1,3,5-trideoxy-1,3,5-tris(dimethylamino)-cis-inositol) were prepared and characterized by mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, and magnetic-susceptibility measurements. The formation constants were determined in aqueous solution (25°, 0.1M KCl) by potentiometric titration. pK values of H3(tdci)3+: 5.89, 7.62, 9.68; FeIII complexes: log βML = 18.8, log β = 32.6; AlIII complexes: log βML = 14.3, logβ = 26.4. The protonated complex [FeH(tdci)2]4+ has also been identified. In contrast to the high stability of the FeIII and AlIII complexes, only weak interactions of tdci with CuII have been observed in aqueous solution (25°, 0.1M KNO3). |
