Tris(difluoro and trifluorobutane-2,4-dionato) gallium(III) and indium(III) complexes

Eight tris(β-diketonate)gallium(III) and seven tris(β-diketonate)-indium(III) complexes M(RCOCH-COR′)₃, with R′being difluoromethyl and trifluoromethyl substituents and R′ being methyl, phenyl, aryl, 2′-naphthyl and 2′-thienyl substituents have been studied by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The complexes are all nonrigid (fluxional) and their ¹⁹F NMR spectra show four resonances in the nonexchanging regions due to cis and trans isomers. A variable low temperature study of these complexes was done for the gallium chelates and activation parameters are calculated. The indium complexes all have nonexchanging regions below ?100°C. The ¹³C NMR data on the complexes are also reported.     

Solvent extraction of gallium(III) as the monothiodibenzoylmethane complex

Gallium(III) can be quantitatively extracted at trace levels with monothiodibenzoylmethane in benzene at pH 5.0. It is then determined spectrophotometrically as its Rhodamine B complex in the organic phase, at 570 nm. The system conforms to Beer's law at 570 nm, in the range 1.4-26 mug of gallium. The absorbance is stable for 24 hr. Gallium can be extracted and determined in the presence of several elements with which it is generally associated in minerals and other products.

Tris(2-methyl-8-quinolinolato)gallium(III) as a fluorescent probe for sensitive silanol-testing.

The peak shape of tris(2-methyl-8-quinolinolato)gallium(III) by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography was found to be very sensitive to trace amounts of silanol groups on the surface of octadecylsylanized silica gel (ODS silica gel). The variation of the peak of the gallium(III) complex can be used as a probe of the residual silanol groups in an ODS column. The chromatographic peak parameters of the complex were compared with the silanol activities output by some silanol-detecting tests using nitrogen-containing compounds as probes. The comparison was performed with several commercially available ODS columns and laboratory-packed columns in which the amount of silanol groups was controlled by mixing fully endcapped ODS materials and a non-endcapped ODS material. The peak height was the most effective parameter among the peak parameters, and much more sensitive than the silanol-detecting tests using nitrogen-containing compounds, in detecting a trace amount of silanol groups that could not be detected by other silanol-detecting tests.

Nicotinamide complex of silver(III) with expanded coordination number

Abstract

In strongly alkaline media ([OH^?]?≥?0.12 M), nicotinamide (nica) forms a complex with square-planar Ag(OH)₄^? [nica]?≥?0.05 M. The complex decomposes in seconds to nicotinamide N-oxide. The correlation of maximum absorbance of the complex with concentrations of nicotinamide and hydroxide requires that the complex is either the five-coordinate Ag(OH)₄(H_-1nica)^2? or the six-coordinate Ag(OH)₅(nica)^2?. Comparison with the reactions of Ag(OH)₄^? with nicotinate ion (nic^?) and acetamide under similar conditions indicates that nicotinamide coordinates with Ag(OH)₄^? by the amido group rather than the nitrogen on the pyridine ring or the amido oxygen. Kinetics of the Ag(III)-nica redox reaction are consistent with direct reaction between nicotinamide and uncoordinated Ag(OH₄)^?. Oxidation takes place at the pyridine ring, yielding nicotinamide N-oxide. Silver(III) is reduced to monovalent silver.     

Synthesis and photophysics of one mononuclear Mn(III) and one dinuclear Mn(III,III) complex covalently linked to a ruthenium(II) tris(bipyridyl) complex

The preparation of donor (D)-photosensitizer (S) arrays, consisting of a manganese complex as D and a ruthenium tris(bipyridyl) complex as S has been pursued. Two new ruthenium complexes containing coordinating sites for one (2a) and two manganese ions (3a) were prepared in order to provide models for the donor side of photosystem II in green plants. The manganese coordinating site consists of bridging and terminal phenolate as well as terminal pyridyl ligands. The corresponding ruthenium-manganese complexes, a manganese monomer 2b and dimer 3b, were obtained. For the dimer 3b, our data suggest that intramolecular electron transfer from manganese to photogenerated ruthenium(III) is fast, k(ET) > 5 x 10(7) s(-)(1).     

The Homogeneity Range of Crystalline Tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)gallium

An experimental procedure has been developed for constructing p _i –T diagrams (partial vapor pressure of the ligand-forming component–temperature) for luminescent metal complexes with symmetric organic ligands. The partial 8-hydroxyquinoline vapor pressure–temperature diagram has been constructed for tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)gallium electrophosphor (Gaq₃) in the temperature range 300–617 K at 8-hydroxyquinoline vapor pressures 10^–3–10⁴ Pa, where the homogeneity ranges of different Gaq₃ polymorphs have been determined. Structure-sensitive properties of crystalline materials can be tailored by changing synthesis conditions within the homogeneity range of a phase.     

Thermochemical properties of the coordination complex of 8-hydroxyquinolinato-bis-(salicylato) praseodymium (III)

The product, [Pr(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₉H₆NO)], which was formed by praseodymium nitrate hexahydrate, salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃), and 8-hydroxyquinoline (C₉H₇NO), was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV spectra, IR spectra, molar conductance, and thermogravimetric analysis.

Kinetics and mechanism of the complex formation between oxalatopentaamminecobalt(III) and aluminium(III) and gallium(III); a comparative study

Summary The reversible complex formation between oxalatopentaammine cobalt(III), aluminium(III) and gallium(III) was investigated by the stopped flow technique at 30 ± 0.1 °C and I = 1.0 mol dm^–3. The reactivity sequence: Ga^III > Al^III is observed, however, the major path for gallium(III) was (NH3)₅CoC₂O₄H²⁺ + GaOH²⁺ (NH₃)₅CoC₂O₄-Ga⁴⁺ + H₂O. The formation and dissociation rate constants of the binuclear species have been compared with the analogous data for iron(III) and nickel(II) reported earlier. The results reflect the fact that the half-bonded exalato moiety of (NH₃)₅CoC₂O _inf4 ^p+ acts as a chelating agent for the metal ions.Author to whom all correspondence should be directed.     

Synthesis and characterization of a mononuclear ruthenium(III) triazole complex

A mononuclear ruthenium(III) complex containing ethylenediaminetetraacetate (edta), [Ru(Hedta)(Htrz)] · 4H₂O (1) (Htrz = 1H-1,2,4-triazole), has been synthesized and the structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P 1, with the unit cell parameters a = 7.212(3) Å, b = 9.873(4) Å, c = 13.806(6) Å, α = 91.945(6)°, β = 100.078(6)°, γ = 97.230(7) and Z = 2. The complex was also characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–Vis and ESR spectra. Cyclic voltammetry for the complex shows a ruthenium(III)/ruthenium(IV) oxidation and a ruthenium(III)/ruthenium(II) reduction within the range of ?1.5–0.5 V. Magnetic susceptibility data give an effective moment of 1.81 B.M. at room temperature.     

Extraction of gallium(III) and aluminium(III) with O,O-dialkyldithiophosphoric acids

The extraction of Ga³⁺ and Al³⁺ with the liquid cation-exchangers di-n-butyldithiophosphoric acid (DBTPA) and di-(2-ethylhexyl)dithiophosphoric acid (DETPA) in kerosene, in the presence and absence of alcohols and tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) has been studied. Both Ga³⁺ and Al³⁺ can be extracted in the form of a neutral complex, MA₃, but the distribution coefficient of Ga³⁺ is the higher by about two orders of magnitude, which can be the basis of the solvent extraction separation of gallium and aluminium. The differences can be explained by the interaction between the sulphur donor atoms of the extractants and the d¹⁰ electronic shell of Ga³⁺ as well as by the lower steric hindrance of ligands co-ordinated to Ga³⁺.
