AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focused on analyzing the distribution and structures of chromium aqua and chloro complexes using UV-vis and X-ray absorption spectra.
  • Various chromium complexes were identified, including distinct geometric forms such as planar square and distorted tetrahedral configurations, with thermodynamic parameters for the complexation reactions being quantitatively determined.
  • The research indicated that specific chromium species exist in acidic conditions (pH 1) but change during hydration, highlighting the need for further kinetic analysis to better understand these speciation processes.

Article Abstract

The distribution of metal aqua and chloro complexes is fundamental information for analysis of a chemical reaction involving these complexes. The present study investigated the speciation and structures of chromium aqua and chloro complexes using the thermodynamic model fitting analysis of UV-vis/X-ray absorption spectra. The existence of a negatively charged species was examined by adsorbability of chromium species on a strong base anion exchanger. In the results, a planar square [Cr(HO)], a planar square or distorted tetrahedral [CrCl(HO)], a trigonal bipyramidal [CrCl(HO)], and a distorted octahedral [CrCl(HO)] were confirmed and the thermodynamic parameters of complexation reactions were quantitatively determined. Investigation of the evolution of speciation of chromium aqua and chloro complexes in a pH 1 solution suggested the existence of [CrCl(HO) ] ( = 2 or 3) during the hydration process, which diminished in the equilibrium state. The kinetic analysis deserves further investigation to understand the speciation process quantitatively.

A new and high performance polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) digestor was designed and fabricated in-house for the total dissolution of granite samples for the determination of technology-critical elements (TCEs) by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Initially, the granite sample (∼0.25 g) was placed in the PTFE digestor and added 8 mL(v/v) of 20%HF+40%HCl+10%HNO acid mixture.

The need for a systematic approach in developing new metal-based drugs with dual anticancer-antimicrobial properties is emphasized by the vulnerability of cancer patients to bacterial infections. In this context, a novel organometallic assembly was designed, featuring ruthenium(II) coordination with p-cymene, one chlorido ligand, and a bidentate neutral Schiff base derived from 4-methoxybenzaldehyde and N,N-dimethylethylenediamine. The compound was extensively characterized in both solid-state and solution, employing single crystal X-ray diffraction, nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and density functional theory, alongside Hirshfeld surface analysis.

A significant number of solid-state [UOCl] coordination compounds have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Yet, despite their purposive relative abundance in aqueous solutions, characterization of aquachlorouranium(VI) complexes remain rare. In the current study, a solid-state uranyl aqua chloro complex ((CHN)[UOCl(HO)]Cl) was synthesized using piperazinium as a charge-balancing ligand, and the structure was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

A novel actinide-containing coordination polymer, [Am(CO)(HO)Cl] (), has been synthesized and structurally characterized. The crystallographic analysis reveals that the structure is two-dimensional and comprised of pseudo-dimeric Am nodes that are bridged by oxalate ligands to form sheets. Each metal center is nine-coordinate, forming a distorted capped square antiprism geometry with a symmetry, and features bound oxalate, aqua, and chloro ligands.
