Stability−Charge and Stability−Structure Relationships in the Binding of Dicarboxylic Ligands by Open-Chain Polyammonium Cations
2000
The stability of complexes formed by 5 dicarboxylic ligands with 11 open-chain polyammonium cations (40 systems) was studied potentiometrically, in aqueous solution, at 25 °C. In all the systems ALHr species (A = amine, L = dicarboxylic ligand, r = 1 ... n; diamines n = 3, triamines n = 4, tetraamines n = 4 or 5) were found. Formation constants for the various complexes studied in this work, together with data for the analogous systems previously studied (20 systems), were examined as a function of charges involved in the formation reaction and of the structure of both the dicarboxylic ligand and the polyammonium cation. Structure generally has little effect on stability, while charges play…
Palladium(II) sequestration by phytate in aqueous solution. Speciation analysis and ionic medium effects.
2010
Environmental context.In the last 20 years, the demand for palladium and other platinum-group elements has intensified, causing a significant increase in their concentration in the environment, with particular accumulation in urban areas. Knowledge about Pd2+ speciation in aqueous media is fundamental for the understanding of its biological and environmental activity in contaminated areas. Phytic acid appears to be a good sequestering agent towards Pd2+ under various conditions, indicating its potential use in the remediation of contaminated sites. Abstract. Palladium(II) speciation in the presence of phytate (Phy12–) was studied by H+ ion selective electrode (ISE) potentiometry at 25°C in…
Speciation of Low Molecular Weight Carboxylic Ligands in Natural Fluids: Protonation Constants and Association with Major Components of Seawater of O…
1999
Abstract The interaction of oxydiacetate and citrate with the major components of seawater has been studied potentiometrically, at 25°C, in an artificial seawater (containing Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cl− and SO42−) at different salinities (5–45‰). Apparent protonation constants were calculated, from potentiometric data, and estimated, using an appropriate complex formation model. Formation constants of complexes formed by oxydiacetate and citrate and the cation of seawater (the inorganic content of seawater being considered as a single 1 : 1 salt) were determined. The single salt approximation for the major inorganic components of seawater, which is a good tool in estimating the mean strength o…
Interaction of Alkyltin(IV) Compounds with Ligands of Interest in the Speciation of Natural fluids: Complexes of (CH3)2Sn2+ with Carboxylates
1997
Complex formation by (CH3)2Sn 2+ with acetate (ac), malonate (mal), 1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate (tricarballylate, tca) and 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylate (btc) ligands in aqueous solution is reported. The study has been performed by potentiometry ([H + ]‐glass electrode) at T = 25 °C, and in the 0 < I < 1 mol dm 2 3 ionic strength range. In order to evaluate the salt effects on the formation constants of the complex species, and to contribute to the definition of the chemical speciation of diorganotin(IV) compounds in natural waters where carboxylic ligands are naturally present, interactions of NaCl (which is the major component of all natural fluids), with the components of the systems un…
Speciation of organotin compounds in NaCl aqueous solution: interaction of mono-, di- and tri-organotin(IV) cations with nucleotide 5′ monophosphates
2004
Formation constants for complex species of mono-, di- and tri-alkyltin(IV) cations with some nucleotide 5'-monophosphates (AMP, UMP, IMP and GMP) are reported, at T=25°C and at I = 0.16 mol 1 -1 (NaCI). The investigation was performed in the light of speciation of organometallic compounds in natural fluids in the presence of nucleotides whose biological importance is well recognized. The simple and mixed hydrolytic complex species formed in all the systems investigated in the pH range 3-9 are (L = nucleotide; M = organotin cation R x Sn (4-x)+ , with x = 1 to 3): ML + , ML(OH)° and ML(OH) 2 - for the system CH 3 Sn 3+ -L (L = AMP, IMP, UMP); ML 0 and ML(OH)-for the system (C 2 H 5 ) 2 Sn 2+…
Complexation of phosphine ligands with peracetylated β-cyclodextrin in supercritical carbon dioxide: Effect of temperature and cosolvent on the equil…
2009
Abstract The interaction between peracetylated-β-cyclodextrin and tert-butyl and adamantyl functionalized triphenylphosphine derivatives was studied in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO 2 ) based solvent media by UV–vis spectroscopy. The equilibrium constant for a 1:1 complexation reaction was obtained from titration spectra both in pure carbon dioxide and in the presence of methanol as a cosolvent in the temperature range 308–323 K to estimate the internal energy and entropy of the inclusion equilibrium. The values of the equilibrium constants were found significantly smaller than those obtained in aqueous solution with analogous phosphines and substantially independent of the nature of t…
Equilibria involved in the diorganotin(IV) and triorganotin(IV) phosphomycin interaction in aqueous solution
2007
Four new diorganotin(IV), (R = Me, Bu), and triorganotin(IV), (R = Me, Ph), derivatives of the phosphomycin disodium salt antibiotic[(1R,2S)-1,2-epoxypropylphosphonate]Na2 have been synthesized and their solid state configuration studied by X-ray crystallography, FT-IR, Mossbauer, UV–Vis spectroscopies. The X-ray diffraction investigation, performed on the bis[trimethyltin(IV)]- phosphomycin, showed that the coordination geometry at all the Sn atoms is trigonal bipyramidal. The structure of the complex forms an unusual polymeric zig-zag planar network. The FT-IR and the 119Sn Mo¨ssbauer studies supported the formation of trigonal bipyramidal (Tbp) molecular structures, both in the diorganot…
Inhibition of the herpes simplex virus-coded thymidine kinase-complex by 9-?-D-arabinofuranosyladenine 5?-monophosphate (ara-AMP) and 9-(2-hydroxyeth…
1984
The thymidine kinase-complex isolated from herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2) is associated with the following enzyme activities: ATP:dThd (dCyd) deoxypyrimidine kinase, ATP:dTMP thymidylate kinase, ADP:dThd- and AMP:dThd5′-phosphotransferase. In kinetic experiments it is shown that ara-AMP inhibits AMP:dThd- and ADP:dThd phosphotransferase activity, while acyclo-GMP impairs ADP:dThd phosphotransferase reaction only; the inhibition was found to be non-compertitive. The functional subunit ATP:dThd kinase was not affected by either compound.
Complexes of Azelaic and Diethylenetrioxydiacetic Acids with Na+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ in NaCl Aqueous Solutions, at 25 °C
1999
Formation constants of Na + , Mg 2+ , and Ca 2+ complexes of azelaic and diethylenetrioxydiacetic acids have been determined by potentiometry (H + -glass electrode) at different ionic strengths (0 ≤ I ≤ 1 mol dm -3 ), at t = 25 °C. For all the systems the species ML and MHL have been found. The relative formation constants are reported together with the parameters for the dependence on ionic strength. Results are discussed in comparison with those for other carboxylic ligands. Speciation problems are considered also.
Interaction of a Recombinant Prion Protein with Organo-Mineral Complexes as Assessed by FT-IR and CPMAS 13C NMR Analysis
2010
Prion proteins are considered as the main agents for the Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE). The misfolded form, PrP Sc , which is also indicated as the etiological agent for TSE, exhibits high resistance to degradation in environmental processes. Soil contamination by prion proteins is a real environmental issue since contaminated soils can become potential reservoir and diffuser for TSE infectivity. In this work, the interaction of prion protein with organo- mineral complexes was studied by using a recombinant non pathogenic prion protein and a model soil system. This latter was represented by a soil manganese mineral coated with polymerized catechol. FT-IR spectra showed ami…
