Complexes of the form [(tBuCO2)3M2]2(mu-O2C-X-CO2), where M is Mo or W and X is a pi conjugated organic group, are ideally suited for studies of electronic coupling between the two redox centers via M2 delta-bridge pi conjugation. The complexes have intense metal-to-bridge charge-transfer transitions in the visible or near-IR region of the spectrum and exhibit thermo-, solvato- and electrochromic behavior. Chemical oxidation results in the formation of mixed-valence species that are particularly well-suited for the study of the class II/III border. The extent of electronic coupling is determined by a variety of spectroscopic techniques and, in particular, by EPR and electronic absorption spectroscopy. The latter provides a direct measure of the electronic coupling parameter Hab in pairs (Mo and W) of otherwise identical complexes. Similarly, the substitution within the bridge of the CO2 group by COS or RNCO allows an evaluation of the mechanism of the electronic coupling in closely related complexes. Electronic structure calculations employing density functional theory complement frontier molecular orbital theory in the interpretation of the physicochemical properties of these complexes.
The synthesis and determination of persistent dicarboxylic metabolites of alkylphenol polyethoxylates (NPEOs), carboxyalkyl phenoxy ethoxy carboxylates (CAPECs), are investigated. The synthesized CAPECs have three and four carbon atoms and a carboxyl group in the alkyl chain side, and a carboxymethoxy acid group in its para-position (expressed as CA(3)P1EC and CA(4)P1EC in their abbreviation). The synthesis was successfully accomplished via a four-step reaction sequence that started from 4-fluoroanisole. After propylation by a propanol/acetyl chloride procedure, the derivatives of synthesized CA(3)P1EC and CA(4)P1EC were separated and identified by GC-MS with electron impact ionization (EI). The most abundant characteristic ions were produced by benzylic cleavages of carboxyalkyl chain to yield [M-87](+), corresponding to ions of m/z 235 for CA(3)P1EC and m/z 249 for CA(4)P1EC. Recoveries of synthesized CA(3)P1EC and CA(4)P1EC in various spiked water samples ranged from 82 to 92% with relative standard deviations (RSD) lesser than 7%. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) of CA(3)P1EC and CA(4)P1EC were estimated to be 0.005 and 0.01 microg/l in 100ml of water samples, respectively. The concentrations of CA(4)P1EC residues were detected in the aquatic environment ranging from n.d. to 3.24 microg/l. The results show that the synthesized CA(4)P1EC has been successfully applied to more accurately determine the concentrations of CA(4)P1EC residues in water samples.
Atmospheric aerosols contain a significant fraction of water-soluble organic compounds, including dicarboxylic acids. Pitzer activity coefficient models are developed, using a wide range of data at 298.15 K, for the following systems containing succinic acid (H(2)Succ) and/or succinate salts: [H(+), Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), Cs(+)]Cl(-)-H(2)Succ-H(2)O, HNO(3)-H(2)Succ-H(2)O, H(+)-NH(4)(+)-HSucc(-)-Succ(2-)-NH(3)-H(2)Succ-H(2)O, NH(4)Cl-(NH(4))(2)Succ-H(2)O, H(+)-Na(+)-HSucc(-)-Succ(2-)-Cl(-)-H(2)Succ-H(2)O, NH(4)NO(3)-H(2)Succ-H(2)O, and H(2)SO(4)-H(2)Succ-H(2)O. The above compositions are given in terms of ions in the cases where acid dissociation was considered. Pitzer models were also developed for the following systems containing malonic acid (H(2)Malo): H(+)-Na(+)-HMalo(-)-Malo(2-)-Cl(-)-H(2)Malo-H(2)O, and H(2)Malo-H(2)SO(4)-H(2)O. The models are used to evaluate the extended Zdanovskii-Stokes-Robinson (ZSR) model proposed by Clegg and Seinfeld (J. Phys. Chem. A 2004, 108, 1008-1017) for calculating water and solute activities in solutions in which dissociation equilibria occur. The ZSR model yields satisfactory results only for systems that contain moderate to high concentrations of (nondissociating) supporting electrolyte. A practical modeling scheme is proposed for aqueous atmospheric aerosols containing both electrolytes and dissociating (organic) nonelectrolytes.
