Abstract
A procedure is given for correcting optical absorbance measurements made at variable pressure with a le Noble-Schlott ("pillbox") cell for the inner sleeve wall thickness. With this technique, the molar volume change for the acid ionization of aqueous [Cr(Hedta)OH(2)] was found to be +5.1 +/- 0.6 cm(3) mol(-)(1) (0-200 MPa, 25.0 degrees C, ionic strength 1.0 mol L(-)(1) HClO(4)/NaClO(4)), an anomalous positive value which implies a change from quinquedentate to predominantly sexidentate edta and expulsion of the coordinated water on ionization. For thiocyanate substitution into labile [Cr(Hedta)OH(2)], high pressure stopped-flow measurements gave the volume of activation as -7.8 +/- 0.9 cm(3) mol(-)(1) and the volume of reaction as +3 +/- 2 cm(3) mol(-)(1), while for the reaction of [Cr(edta)](-) with NCS(-) the activation volume is -13.6 +/- 0.6 cm(3) mol(-)(1) (same conditions). These and other data support the notion that the anomalous substitutional lability of Cr(III)(edta) complexes relative to typical Cr(III) species is due to activation by transient chelation of the pendant arm of quinquedentate edta.Keywords
