Kinetics of reactions between bromoplatinum(II) complexes and silver nitrate

The kinetics of the reactions of bromide complexes [[PtenBr₂], [Pt(NH₃)₂Br₂], and [enPtBr₂Pten](NO₃)₂ with AgNO₃ are studied potentiometrically. The reactions occur in two stages with dramatically different rates. Rate constants are determined for the second stage. The kinetics of the reaction between the dimeric complex and AgNO₃ are studied at 5, 15, 25, and 35°C. The activation energy is determined.     

Uranyl(VI) and lanthanum(III) thio-diglycolamides complexes: Synthesis and structural studies involving nitrate complexation

New tri-functional ligands of the type R₂NCOCH₂SCH₂CONR₂ (where R = iso-propyl, n-butyl or iso-butyl) were prepared and characterized. The coordination chemistry of these ligands with uranyl and lanthanum(III) nitrates was studied by using the IR, ¹HNMR and elemental analysis methods. Structures for the compounds [UO₂(NO₃)₂(ⁱPr₂NCOCH₂SCH₂CONⁱPr₂)] [UO₂(NO₃)₂(ⁱBu₂NCOCH₂SCH₂CONⁱBu₂)], [La(NO₃)₃(ⁱPr₂NCOCH₂SCH₂CONⁱPr₂)₂] and [La(NO₃)₃(ⁱBu₂NCOCH₂SCH₂CONⁱBu₂)₂] were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. These structures show that the ligand acts as a bidentate chelating ligand and bonds through both the carbamoyl groups to the uranyl and lanthanum(III) nitrate groups. Solvent extraction studies show that the ligand can extract the uranyl ion from the nitric acid medium but does not show any ability to extract the americium (III) ion.     

Synthesis of basic bismuth(III) oxalate by precipitation from nitrate solutions

Conditions were determined in which basic bismuth oxalate of composition BiC₂O₄(OH) can be obtained by direct precipitation upon addition of oxalic acid from nitrate solutions used in production of bismuth compounds. The composition of the compound was confirmed by X-ray phase and chemical analyses, IR and Raman spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry. Electron microscopy was used to examine the effect of the composition of the reaction medium and temperature on the morphology of the product being obtained. It was shown that β-Bi₂O₃ can be obtained in oxidative thermolysis of basic bismuth oxalate, depending on its morphology.     

Synthesis of cationic gold(III) complexes using iodine(III)

Abstract

We report the synthesis and characterization of cationic Au(III) complexes supported by nitrogen-based ligands. The syntheses are achieved by reacting Au(I) complexes [Au(N-Me-imidazole)₂]⁺ and [Au(pyridine)(NHC)]⁺ with iodine(III) reagents PhI(OTf)(OAc) and [PhI(pyridine)₂]²⁺ yielding a series of cationic gold(III) complexes. In contrast, reactions of phosphine ligated gold(I) complexes with iodine(III) reagents results in the oxidation of the phosphine ligand.     

Chromium(III) halide and nitrate complexes with amino derivatives of isoxazole

In the present work we have studied the complexes of the ligands 3-amino, 5-methylisoxazole (3-AMI) and 5-amino-3,4-dimethylisoxazole (5-ADI) with the metal salts CrX₃·nH₂O (where X = Cl, Br, I, NO₃; n = 9, 10). The compounds have been characterized on the basis of spectroscopic methods, magnetism and conductivity measurements. We have calculated the ligand field parameters. All the complexes are hexa-coordinate, with exception of Cr(3-AMI)I₃ which should have a distorted tetrahedral stereochemistry. The monomeric complexes are N_ring bonded while the polymeric compounds are bridging bidentate N_ring and O_ring bonded.     

Synthesis and atructure of [meso-triarylcorrolato]silver(III)

An efficient meso-triarylcorrole synthesis is detailed, and the formation and spectroscopic properties of their diamagnetic square-planar d(8) Ag(III) complexes are described. The spectroscopic properties of the [corrolato]Ag(III) complexes are contrasted with those of the corresponding [porphyrinato]Ag(II) complexes. The oxidation state of the central metal in the corrolato complexes was inferred from their diamagnetic NMR spectra, from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements, and by single-crystal X-ray diffractometry of the [meso-tetra-p-tolylcorrolato]silver(III) complex TTCAg(III), as its toluene solvate (crystal data for C(40)H(29)N(4)Ag.C(7)H(8): monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 21.4679(19) A, b = 20.7606(19) A, c = 16.0122(11) A, beta = 93.700(4) degrees, V = 7121.5(10) A(3), Z = 8, R = 0.0453, and R(w) = 0.1131). The conformation of the corrolato ligand in the complex is slightly saddled. The Ag(III) complexes are without precedent in the coordination chemistry of corroles. The Ag(III) complexes underline the ability of meso-triarylcorroles to stabilize higher oxidation states as compared to the corresponding meso-tetraarylporphyrinato complexes.     

Synthesis and thermal decomposition of antimony(III) oxide hydroxide nitrate

The thermal decomposition of the only known antimony nitrate antimony(III) oxide hydroxide nitrate Sb₄O₄(OH)₂(NO₃)₂, whose synthesis routes were reviewed and optimized was followed by TG-DTA under an argon flow, from room temperature up to 750°C. Chemical analysis (for hydrogen and nitrogen) performed on samples treated at different temperatures showed that an amorphous oxide hydroxide nitrate appeared first at 175°C, and decomposed into an amorphous oxide nitrate above 500°C. Above 700°C, Sb₆O₁₃ and traces of -Sb₂O₄ crystallized.Author to whom all correspondence should be addressed

Synthesis, structure and characterization of binuclear silver(I) complexes

Summary Two binuclear Ag^I complexes, [{Ag(dppp)}₂](NO₃)₂ (1) and [{Ag(dppb)}₂(NO₃)]₂ (2) (dppp = Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂, dppb = Ph₂P(CH₂)₄PPh₂], were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, t.g., i.r. and ³¹P-n.m.r. spectra. Single crystals of complex (2) were obtained from MeOH-CHCl₃. The X-ray crystal structure shows that the dppb ligand is bidentate, with two ligands bridging two metal ions to form a centrosymmetric dimer.

The coupled TG-MS investigations of lanthanide(III) nitrate complexes with hexamethylenetetramine

New transition metal compounds of the general formula Ln(NO₃)₃·2[N₄(CH₂)₆]·nH₂O, where Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Er, Lu, and n = 7-12, were obtained. The compounds and the gases evolved in the course of their thermal decomposition were characterised by thermogravimetric analysis. The measurements were carried out in air and argon environment in order to compare the intermediate products, final products and the mechanism of the thermal decomposition. The combined TG-MS system was used to identify the main volatile products of thermal decomposition and fragmentation processes of the obtained compounds. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Synthesis and characterization of gold(III) complexes with dithiocarbimates derived from sulfonamides

This work describes the syntheses of four new gold(III) complexes with the general formula: K[Au(RSO₂N = CS₂)₂] (R = Ph, 2-MeC₆H₄, 4-MeC₆H₄, 4-ClC₆H₄) from the reaction of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate tetrahydrate with the corresponding potassium dithiocarbimate salts dihydrate in water. The characterization of the complexes has been carried out by elemental analyses, conductance measurements, and IR, UV–VIS, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopies. Elemental analyses were consistent with the proposed formulae. The molar conductance data are consistent with the complexes being monoanions complexes. Electronic spectra, vibrational spectra, ¹H- NMR and ¹³C-NMR data are consistent with formulation as AuS₄ diamagnetic square planar complexes.

Synthesis,thermal decomposition and dielectric behavior of bis(thiourea)silver(I)nitrate

New semi-organic bis(thiourea)silver(I)nitrate (TuAgN) single crystals have been grown from slow evaporation solution growth technique. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study reveals that the crystal belongs to orthorhombic system with the non-centrosymmetric space group C2221 and the calculated cell parameters are a = 33.3455 (6) Å, b = 45.2957 (7) Å, c = 20.3209 (5) Å, α = β = γ = 90°, and V = 30692.8 (10) Å ³. The thermal stability and decomposition behavior of TuAgN compound have been studied by thermogravimetric analysis at three different heating rates 5, 10, and 15 °C min^?1. The effective activation energy (E _a) and pre-exponential factor (ln A) of thermal decomposition of thiourea from TuAgN compound at three different heating rates are estimated by model free methods: Arrhenius, Flynn–Wall, Kissinger, and Kim–Park. The calculated effective activation energies were found to vary with the fraction (α) reacted. The compensation effect between the (ln A) and (E _a) has also been studied. Dielectric properties of TuAgN crystal have been studied in a wide range of frequencies and temperatures. AC conductivity has also been carried out.
