Thermodynamics Of Ion Association In Aqueous Fluoride Solutions. Determination Of Stability Constants For (Naf), (Mgf)+ And (Caf)+ Ion Pairs, Waldo Zamorano-Santander

Masters Theses

Stoichiometric ion-association constants were determined at several ionic strengths for (NaF) over the temperature range 15-40°C and for (MgF)⁺ and (CaF)⁺ over the temperature range 25-45°C using fluoride ion selective electrode measurements.

Thermodynamic association constants, K°, were obtained through extrapolation of the stoichiometric values to infinite dilution. Values of K° for (NaF) are 1.70, 2.16 and 2.54 at 15, 25 and 40°C, respectively. The K° values for (MgF)⁺ are 73.4, 88.0 and 98.2, and for (CaF)⁺ are 13.7, 17.5 and 21.9 at 25, 35 and 45°C., respectively.

The stoichiometric association constants for (NaF) can be reproduced …

Bimetallic Tungsten Carbonyl Complexes, Jin-Guu Wang

Masters Theses

Two heterobimetallic complexes, [(CO)₄W(PPh₂CH₂CH₂-PPh₂)₂MCl₂]_n ( M = Pd or Pt ), were prepared from the reaction of trans-W(CO)₄(ŋ¹-PPh₂CH₂CH₂PPh₂) ₂ with M(COD)Cl₂ (COD = cyclooctadiene). A trans arrangement about tungsten was found for both the palladium and platinum complexes. The square planar palladium center was shown to have a trans geometry in solution while a cis arrangement for the platinum moiety was observed. Far infrared studies indicated a mixture of cis and trans …

Bimetallic Complexes Of Tungsten And Mercury, Zakariah Abdullah

Masters Theses

A tungsten-mercury bimetallic complex [(CO)₄W(PPh₂CH₂CH₂PPh₂)₂HgCl₂]_n has been synthesized from the reaction of trans-(CO)₄W(η¹-PPh₂CH₂CH₂PPh₂)₂ and HgCl₂. The value of n has not been determined due to the insolubility of the complex. The anologous reaction with HgI₂ gave an insoluble, uncharacterizable complex, which best corresponds to (CO)₄W(PPh₂CH₂CH₂PPh₂)₂Hg₂I₄.

The geometry about tungsten in [(CO)_{4 …}
