Abstract:

The interaction between hydronium ion and several crown ethers was studied via conductometry in nitromethane at 25 °C and 1H-NMR techniques. The stabilities of the resulting 1:1 complexes were determined from the conductance data and found to vary in the order DC18C6 > 18C6 > DB30C10 > DB24C8 > DB18C6 > ~B15C5 > DB21C7. For the first time, evidences for the formation of a 2:1 sandwich complex between the smaller crown ethers (i. e. B15C5 and 18 crowns) and hydronium ion in solution were observed by monitoring the molar conductance of hydronium ion as a function of the ligand to cation mole conductance of hydronium ion as a function of the ligand to cation mole ratio. The 1H-NMR data support the existence of such 2:1 adduct in solution.

Complexation of N- Heteroaromatic Cations with Crown Ethers and Tetraphenylborate

Study was made of host-guest complexation of neutral crown ethers with fiveand six-membered Nheteroaromatic cations and purinium cation. Complexation of tetraphenylborate with selected Nheteroaromatic cations and tropylium cation also was studied. Crown ether complexes were characterized by mass spectrometric and 1H NMR spectrometric methods and by X-ray crystallography. Fast atom bombardment m...

Spectrophotometric and Electrochemical Study of the Complexation of Iodine with 1,10-Diaza-18-Crown-6 in Acetonitrile Solution

The complexation reaction between iodine and 1,10-Diaza-18-Crown-6 (DA18C6) has been studied in acetonitrile by spectrophotometric, biamperometric and conductometric techniques. The results are indicative of the formation of [(CH3CH)nI+.I¯3] from iodine and acetonitrile, and the formation of DA18C6 I+. I¯ from DA18C6 and [(CH...

Dansyl - Substituted Aza Crown Ethers: Complexation with Alkali, Alkaline Earth Metal Ions and Ammonium.

The present study investigates the binding properties of four dansyl substituted aza-crown ethers with alkali, alkaline earth metal ions and ammonium. The influence of the solvent polarity and protonation on the photophysical properties of the compounds was studied by UV/Vis and fluorescence methods. The host species caused only slight changes on the absorption spectra of the ligands. The fluor...

Aza-Crown Ethers with Quinone Side Chains: Synthesis, Complexation, and Protonation

The synthesis and spectroscopic investigation of aza-crown ethers with anthraquinoneand 1-aminoanthraquinone-functionalized side chains are described. Cation-induced shifts in the UV/VIS absorption spectra of the ligands dissolved in propylene carbonate are observed only for Li+ among the alkali metal ions and for Mg2+ among the alkaline earth metal ions as well as for Ag+ and T1+. Only hypsoch...

Exploring crown ethers as shift reagents for ion mobility spectrometry.

A series of crown ethers, 12-crown-4, 15-crown-5, 18-crown-6, and dibenzo-30-crown-10, are examined as a possible means of shifting the mobilities of peptide ions. In this approach, a crown ether is added to a solution containing a mixture of peptides and is electrosprayed into the gas phase in order to create distributions of peptide-crown complexes. The ion complexes have different mobilities...
