The interaction of 5,11,17,23-tetra-tert-butyl [25,26,27,28-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)oxy]calix(4)arene 1a with alkali-metal cations in dipolar aprotic media (acetonitrile and benzonitrile) has been investigated. 1H NMR experiments were carried out by adding to the ligand an excess amount of the appropriate metal cation (Li+, Na+, K+) in CD3CN at 298 K. Measurements were taken at different time intervals ranging from 30 min to 10 days. It was found that the kinetics of the process in this solvent is fast. Conductance measurements demonstrated that 1:1 metal cation:ligand stoichiometries are found with these cations in these solvents. Thermodynamic parameters of complexation for this ligand and alkali-metal cations in acetonitrile and in benzonitrile at 298.15 K were derived from titration microcalorimetry. Stability constants were also determined by the competitive potentiometric method using silver electrodes. Excellent agreement is found between the data derived from calorimetry and those derived by potentiometry. The highest stability is found for lithium with this ligand. The results are compared with data previously reported for systems involving a calix(4)arene ester derivative and these cations in the same solvents. The implications of stability constant data on the selective behaviour of this ligand for metal cations in these solvents are discussed. It is shown that this ligand in these solvents is able to discriminate between the smaller cations (Li+ and Na+) and the larger ones (K+ and Rb+). The sodium perchlorate complex of 1a was synthesised and the molecular structure of this complex has been determined from X-ray diffraction data. The substance crystallises in the tetragonal group P4cc with a=21.791(2), c=26.958(3) Ã
and z=8. There are three different complexes in the lattice, two sited on fourfold axes and a third one on a twofold axis. All ligands exhibit a âconeâ conformation and the Na+ ion is encapsulated in their hydrophilic pockets with an acetonitrile molecule filling their hydrophobic cavities. Based on 1H NMR, conductimetric, microcalorimetric and X-ray diffraction studies final conclusions are given.
研究了 5,11,17,23-四叔丁基 [25,26,27,28-四(2-吡啶基甲基)氧基]钙(4)炔 1a 与碱金属阳离子在双极性钝化介质(乙腈和苯甲腈)中的相互作用。在 298 K 的 CD3CN 中,通过向配体中加入过量的适当金属阳离子(Li+、Na+、K+)进行了 1H NMR 实验。结果发现,在这种溶剂中,反应过程的动力学速度很快。电导测量结果表明,在这些溶剂中,这些阳离子与配体的配位比为 1:1。通过滴定微量热法得出了该配体与碱金属阳离子在 298.15 K 的乙腈和苯甲腈中络合的热力学参数。此外,还通过使用银电极的竞争电位法测定了稳定性常数。量热法得出的数据与电位计法得出的数据非常一致。锂与这种配体的稳定性最高。研究结果与之前报告的涉及钙(4)炔酯衍生物和这些阳离子的体系在相同溶剂中的数据进行了比较。讨论了稳定性常数数据对这种配体在这些溶剂中对金属阳离子的选择性的影响。研究表明,这种配体在这些溶剂中能够区分较小的阳离子(Li+ 和 Na+)和较大的阳离子(K+ 和 Rb+)。我们合成了 1a 的高氯酸钠络合物,并通过 X 射线衍射数据确定了该络合物的分子结构。该物质结晶为 P4cc 四边形,a=21.791(2),c=26.958(3) Ã,z=8。晶格中有三种不同的配合物,其中两种位于四倍轴上,第三种位于二倍轴上。所有配体都呈现 "锥 "构象,Na+离子被包裹在它们的亲水口袋中,而乙腈分子则填充了它们的疏水空腔。根据 1H NMR、电导率、微量热和 X 射线衍射研究得出了最终结论。
