Abstract
Nature and Stability of Some Metallic Complexes of Dinucleating Cryptands in Solution II. Polythiamacrotricycles and Related Monocyclic SubunitsThe stability constants of the Cu2+ and Ag+ complexes of the cylindrical macrotricycle 1a (1,7,13,19‐tetraaza 4,16‐dioxa 10,22,27,32‐tetrathiatricyclo[17.5.5.5]tetratriacontane) have been determined by pH‐metry, as well as those of the Cu2+, Co2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, and Ag+ complexes of the monocyclic subunit 2a (1,7‐dimethyl‐1,7‐diaza 4,10‐dithiacyclododecane), in aqueous solutions (NaClO4) at 25°. In the Cu(II) systems, equilibria were reached slowly, and the results established by pH‐metry were confirmed by UV/VIS spectrophotometric studies. The tricycle 1a forms dinuclear cryptates with copper and silver, with overall stability constants log β210 (Cu2‐1a)4+ = 18.5, log β21‐2 (Cu2‐1a(OH)2)2+ = 4.8, log β210(Ag2‐1a)2+ = 23.0. Ag+ also forms a mononuclear (Ag‐1a)+ complex, with log β110 = 13.1, but no mononuclear species were detected in the Cu‐1a system. The absorption spectra of the bis‐Cu(II) complexes of 1a and 2a in aqueous medium, MeOH and propylene carbonate (PC) are given, as well as those, in MeOH and PC, of the bis‐copper complexes of the related monocycles 3 and 4 (1,7‐diaza‐4,10,13‐trithiacyclopentadecane and 1.10‐diaza 4,7,13,16‐tetrathiacyclooctadecane, respectively), and tricycle 5 with two benzyl groups in the lateral chains.The complexing properties of the polyoxa‐ and polythia macrotricycles (Parts I and II of this series) are compared to those of other bis‐chelating ligands, the bicyclic bis‐tren and the monocyclic bis‐dien.
