The new pi-conjugated 1,2,3-triazol-1,4-diyl fluoroionophore 1 generated via Cu(I) catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddition shows high fluorescence enhancement factors (FEF) in the presence of Na+ (FEF = 58) and K+ (FEF = 27) in MeCN and high selectivity towards K+ under simulated physiological conditions (160 mM K+ or Na+, respectively) with a FEF of 2.5 for K+.
A series of three dialkyl phosphate resins with a Merrifield resin support was used to extract platinum from acidic media. In column operations total capacities of 85-130 mg/g were gained. The presence of palladium and rhodium results in the order: Pt(IV) > Pd(II) >> Rh(III). From a leach liquor gained from spent automotive catalysts metals forming anionic chloro complexes are co-extracted only to a small extent. However, in order to separate and enrich platinum a selective back-extraction can be done with a sodium thiocyanate solution. A second elution step with acidic thiourea leads to a mixed solution of palladium and rhodium.
The complex formation of the following diazaperylene ligands (L) 1,12-diazaperylene 1, 1,1-bisisoquinoline 2, 2,11-disubstituted 1,12-diazaperylenes (alkyl=methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, 3, 5, 7), 3,3-disubstituted 1,1-bisisoquinoline (alkyl=methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, 4, 6, 8 and with R=phenyl, 11 and with pyridine 12), and the 5,8-dimethoxy-substituted diazaperylene 9, 6,6-dimethoxy-substituted bisisoquinoline 10 with AgBF4 was investigated. Collision-induced dissociation measurements were used to evaluate the relative stabilities of the ligands themselves and for the [1:1](+) complexes as well as for the homoleptic and heteroleptic silver [1:2](+) complexes in the gas phase. This method is very useful in rapid screening of the stabilities of new complexes in the gas phase. The influence of the spatial arrangement of the ligands and the type of substituents employed for the complexation were examined. The effect of the preorganization of the diazaperylene on the threshold activation voltages and thus of the relative binding energies of the different complexes are discussed. Density functional theory calculations were used to calculate the optimized structures of the silver complexes and compared with the stabilities of the complexes in the gas phase for the first time.
This work presents two molecular fluorescent probes 1 and 2 for the selective determination of physiologically relevant K+ levels in water based on a highly K+/Na+ selective building block, the o-(2-methoxyethoxy)phenylaza-18-crown-6 lariat ether unit. Fluorescent probe 1 showed a high K+-induced fluorescence enhancement (FE) by a factor of 7.7 of the anthracenic emission and a dissociation constant (K-d) value of 38mm in water. Further, for 2+K+, we observed a dual emission behavior at 405 and 505nm. K+ increases the fluorescence intensity of 2 at 405nm by a factor of approximately 4.6 and K+ decreases the fluorescence intensity at 505nm by a factor of about 4.8. Fluorescent probe 2+K+ exhibited a K-d value of approximately 8mm in Na+-free solutions and in combined K+/Na+ solution a similar K-d value of about 9mm was found, reflecting the high K+/Na+ selectivity of 2 in water. Therefore, 2 is a promising fluorescent tool to measure ratiometrically and selectively physiologically relevant K+ levels.
Especially sulphur containing compounds are suitable for the separation of noble metals. 1,2-Dithioethenes are weak chelate-forming ligands and in the case of bis(methylthio)maleo-nitrile the donor power of both of the sulphur atoms is further decreased by the electron withdrawing effect of the cyanogroups. Crowned dithiomaleonitrile are macrocyclic chelate ligands which extract Pd(II) at sufficient rate in a very good yields. The synthesis of the immobilised ligands proceeds from the 2-allyloxy-1,2-propanediol forming the dicar-bon acid which is reduced to the diole. With the help of thionylchloride the dichloro compound is synthe-sized forming the macrocycle together with a dithiolate (1,2-disodium-1,2-dicyanethene-1,2-dithiolate, 1,2-disodium-4-methylbenzene-1,2-dithiolate) at high dilution conditions. The allylsubstituted crown ether is sillylated and the resulting alkoxysilane is immobilised onto activated silica gel. The extraction results with crown ethers are compared with that achieved with the help of substituted ß- diketones and 4-acyl-5-pyrazolones. By modification of the cavity of the macrocyclus the extraction rate increases from the acyclic compound through maleonitrile-dithio-21-crown-7, maleonitrile-dithio-15-crown-5 and maleonitrile-18-crown-6. The best results can be observed at the maleonitrile-dithio-12-crown-4. The rise of the function log D= f(log L) gives the composition of the extracted compounds as 1:1. The separa-tion is unsatisfactory in the case of Ag(I), Hg(II), Pt(II), Tl (I) and the most 3d-elements. Summarizing, a very good separation of palladium from the examined elements can be specified. Additional to the extraction experiments, as well as the crystal structures and by UV spectroscopy the for- mation constants of selected chelates were determined.
