摘要:
The kinetics of the acid dissociation of copper(II) complex of a novel C-functionalized macrocyclic dioxotetraamine has been studied using a stopped-flow spectrophotometer. It was proven that substituents decrease the acid dissociation rates. The dissociation rate follows the law upsilon(d) = C(com)kK(1)K(2)H(2)/(1 + K1H + K1K2H2). On the intermediates we have obtained, the dissociation kinetics are interpreted by a mechanism involving the negatively charged carbonyl oxygen of the complex being rapidly protonated in a pre-equilibrium step, the rate-determining step being intramolecular hydrogen(enolic tautomer) migration(to imine nitrogen). The dissociation rate reached a plateau in strongly acidic solution. By means of temperatures coefficient method, K-1, K-2 of the pre-equilibrium step and Delta H-not equal and Delta S not equal of the rate-determining step were obtained and the results discussed. It is the strong in-plane ligand held that increased Delta H of the rate-determining step and thus decreases the dissociation rate constant. The Bronsted type linear free energy relationships do exist in this C-functionalized dioxotetraamine copper(II) complex. The results clarify insights into acid dissociation mechanisms for the 14-membered macrocyclic dioxotetraamine copper(II) complex. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
