Studies on the different forms of some mixed chelate complexes of dioxouranium(VI) with cupferron
Abstract: Mixed chelate complexes of identical composition of the type (NH4)2[UO2(L)2B] and (NH4)2[UO2(L)2X2] where L = anion of cupferron, B CO″3, C2O″4 and X F′, Cl′ have been prepared from different starting materials Both the fluoro- and chloro-complexes (NH4)2[UO2(L)2X2] have been isolated in two different forms (one orange-yellow and one yellow) by different methods Yellow forms of (NH4)2[UO2(L)2X2] undergo conversion to the corresponding orange-yellow forms under suitable conditions All these complexes have been thoroughly characterised through elemental analysis, conductance data, X-ray, IR, electronic, NMR spectra as well as thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses Possibility of the complex (NH4)2[UO2(L)2X2] to exist in two geometrical isomeric forms has been indicated The orange red complex cis-[UO2(L)2(H2O)2] on being refluxed with acetone, changed to a yellow complex, almost insoluble in most of the common organic solvents Various physico-chemical studies indicate it to be a hydroxybridged dinuclear complex H[(UO2)2(L)4OH(H2O)2] The ν3-values (cm−1) of UO22+-entity from IR-spectra have been used to calculate the force constant, FUO in mdynes/A and the bond length RUO in A of the UO bond Using ν3of the UO22+-entity as a molecular probe, the inorganic ligands and acid residues like F′, Cl′, CO″3 and CO″4 have been arranged in a series, which is similar to the mutual displacement series of one ligand by another in the uranyl compounds
