Heats and Entropies of Reaction of Transition Metal Ions with Ethylenediamine
1960
THE heats of formation of complexes between ligands and metal ions are very important to further the ligand field-theory and check its implications. Until now, only the heats of hydration of the first transition group ions have been used for this purpose1 as the thermochemical data on the complexes formed by ligands other than water are very incomplete. The transition metal complexes of ethylenediamine, which have a very nearly octahedral configuration, could also be fruitfully studied in terms of ligand field-theory. Unfortunately only the thermal data on nickel (II), copper (II) and zinc (II) complexes are known2, and so the formation constants have been used instead of the values of enth…
Complex formation of Tb3+ with glycolate, D-gluconate and α-isosaccharinate in neutral aqueous perchlorate solutions
2003
Summary An electromigration technique was used for measurements of metal-ligand formation constants of non-carrier-free 160Tb3+ with glycolate, D-gluconate and α-isosaccharinate ligands. The overall ion mobilities of Tb at different concentrations of the ligands were measured in chemically inert perchlorate solutions (pH 7 and T= 298.1K) with an overall ionic strength μ = 0.1. The stepwise stoichiometric stability constants are: Tb3+/glycolate: log K 1=2.72(18), log K 2=1.73(19), log K 3= 1.12(17), Tb3+/D-gluconate: log K 1=2.96(11), log K 2=2.60(11), log K 3=1.13(9), Tb3+/α-ISA: log K 1=3.07(8), log K 2 = 2.69(11), log K 3 = 1.80(12).
Unravelling the modus operandi of phytosiderophores during zinc uptake in rice: the importance of geochemical gradients and accurate stability consta…
2020
Abstract Micronutrient deficiencies threaten global food production. Attempts to biofortify crops rely on a clear understanding of micronutrient uptake processes. Zinc deficiency in rice is a serious problem. One of the pathways proposed for the transfer of zinc from soils into rice plants involves deoxymugineic acid (DMA), a phytosiderophore. The idea that phytosiderophores play a wider role in nutrition of Poaceae beyond iron is well established. However, key mechanistic details of the DMA-assisted zinc uptake pathway in rice remain uncertain. In particular, questions surround the form in which zinc from DMA is taken up [i.e. as free aqueous Zn(II) or as Zn(II)–DMA complexes] and the role…
On the zopiclone enantioselective binding to human albumin and plasma proteins. An electrokinetic chromatography approach
2011
In this work, a methodology for the chiral separation of zopiclone (ZPC) by electrokinetic chromatography (EKC) using carboxymethylated-β-cyclodextrin as chiral selector has been developed and applied to the evaluation of the enantioselective binding of ZPC enantiomers to HSA and total plasma proteins. Two mathematical approaches were used to estimate protein binding (PB), affinity constants (K(1)) and enantioselectivity (ES) for both enantiomers of ZPC. Contradictory results in the literature, mainly related to plasma protein binding reported data, suggest that this is an unresolved matter and that more information is needed. Discrepancies and coincidences with previous data are highlighte…
Greatly enhanced intermolecular π-dimer formation of a porphyrin trimer radical trications through multiple π bonds.
2010
A trefoil-like porphyrin trimer linked by triphenylamine (TPA-TPZn(3)) was synthesized. A three-electron oxidation of TPA-TPZn(3) forms a radical trication (TPA-TPZn(3)(3+)), in which each porphyrin ring undergoes a one-electron oxidation. The radical trication TPA-TPZn(3)(3+) spontaneously dimerizes to afford (TPA-TPZn(3))(2)(6+) in CH(2)Cl(2) . The characteristic charge-resonance band due to the charge delocalization over the π system of (TPA-TPZn(3))(2)(6+) was observed in the NIR region. The initial oxidation potential of TPA-TPZn(3) is negatively shifted relative to that of the corresponding monomer porphyrin, which results from the stabilization of the oxidized state of TPA-TPZn(3) as…
Aza–oxa macrocyclic ligands functionalised with naphthylmethyl fluorescent groups
2000
Abstract Compounds L 1 and L 2 were obtained by reaction of 2-(bromomethyl)naphthalene with 1,4,10-trioxa-7,13-diazacyclopentadecane and 1,4,7-trioxa-10-azacyclododecane, respectively. These receptors contain aza–oxa crowns attached covalently to fluorescent groups. The protonation and coordination behaviour of L 1 and L 2 against metal ions has been studied in dioxane:water (70:30 v/v, 25°C, 0.1 M potassium nitrate) using potentiometric methods. All metal ions studied form complexes with L 1 and L 2 with the logarithm of the formation constants L+M 2+ =[M(L)] 2+ in the sequence Cd 2+ ≅Pb 2+ , Zn 2+ 2+ for L 1 and Zn 2+ 2+ 2+ 2+ 2+ for L 2 . The fluorescent behaviour of L 1 and L 2 was stud…

2006
Abstract In the present paper, some results of an investigation (at t = 25 °C by potentiometry, ISE-H+ glass electrode) on the sequestering ability of five different polyaminopolycarboxylic ligands [Nitrilotriacetate (NTA), ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate (EDTA), ethylene glycol-bis(2-aminoethylether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetate (EGTA), diethylenetriamine-N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentaacetate (DTPA), triethylenetetraamine-N,N,N′,N″,N′′′,N′′′-hexaacetate (TTHA)] towards dioxouranium(VI) cation in sodium chloride aqueous solutions, at I = 0.7 mol L−1 are reported. Calculations performed on potentiometric data gave evidence of the formation of the following species (log β in parenthesis): UO2(NTA)H0 (12…
Interaction of UO2(2+) with ATP in aqueous ionic media.
2005
Interaction of dioxouranium(VI) (uranyl) ion with ATP was studied by ligand/proton and metal/hydroxide displacement technique, at very low ionic strength and at I=0.15 mol L(-1), in aqueous Me4NCl and NaCl solutions, at t=25 degrees C. Measurements were carried out in the pH range 3-8.5, before the formation of precipitate. Computer analysis allowed us to find the quite stable species UO2(ATP)H2(0), UO2(ATP)H-, UO2(ATP)2-, UO2(ATP)2(6-), UO2(ATP)2H2(4-) and UO2(ATP)(OH)3- whose formation constants are (at I=0 mol L(-1)) logbeta(112)=18.21, logbeta(111)=14.70, logbeta(110)=9.14, logbeta(120)=12.84, logbeta(122)=24.82, and logbeta(11-1)=2.09, respectively. Different values were obtained in th…

Tungsten(VI)-gluconic acid complexes: Polarimetric and13C-N.m.r. Studies in an excess of tungsten(VI)
1986
A polarimetric study of the tungsten (VI)-gluconic acid system in an excess of metal reveals the formation of four stable complexes: two monomers with 1 : 2 and 2: 1 stoichiometries and two dimers of 2:2 composition. The pH ranges of these species, the amount of acid equivalents their formation requires, and their conditional stability constants have also been calculated.
