Without other alternatives, the carboxyalkyl radicals couple to form dibasic acids HOOC(CH)2 COOH. In addition, the carboxyalkyl radical can be used for other desired radical reactions, eg, hydrogen abstraction, vinyl monomer polymerization, addition of carbon monoxide, etc. The reactions of this radical with chloride and cyanide ions are used to produce amino acids and lactams employed in the manufacture of polyamides, eg, nylon. 

Silver Chloride. Silver chloride, AgCl, is a white precipitate that forms when chloride ion is added to a silver nitrate solution. The order of solubility of the three silver halides is Cl" > Br" > I. Because of the formation of complexes, silver chloride is soluble in solutions containing excess chloride and in solutions of cyanide, thiosulfate, and ammonia. Silver chloride is insoluble in nitric and dilute sulfuric acid. Treatment with concentrated sulfuric acid gives silver sulfate. 

The concentration of copper(I) ion remaining ia solution is not appreciable. However, aqueous copper(I) ion can be stabilized by complex formation with various agents such as chloride, ammonia, cyanide, or acetonitrile. 

Other ions, eg, ferrate, chloride, and formate, are determined by first removing the cyanide ion at ca pH 3.5 (methyl orange end point). Iron is titrated, using thioglycolic acid, and the optical density of the resulting pink solution is measured at 538 nm. Formate is oxidized by titration with mercuric chloride. The mercurous chloride produced is determined gravimetricaHy. Chloride ion is determined by a titration with 0.1 Ai silver nitrate. The end point is determined electrometricaHy. 

Reaction of 2,3-dichlorobenzoyl chloride with cyanide ion leads to the corresponding benzoyl cyanide (141). Condensation of that reactive intermediate with aminoguanidine 142 leads to the hydrazone-like product 143. Treatment with base results in addition of one of the guanidine amino groups to the nitrile function and formation of the 1,2,4-triazine ring. The product, lamo-trigine (144), is described as an anticonvulsant agent [31]. 

A quantitative study of the nucleophilic displacement reaction of benzoyl chloride with cyanide ion in [BMIM][PFg] was investigated by Eckert and co-workers [52]. The separation of the product, 1-phenylacetonitrile, from the ionic liquid was achieved by distillation or by extraction with supercritical CO2. The 1-phenylacetonitrile was then treated with KOH in [BMIM][PF6] to generate an anion, which reacted with 1,4-dibromobutane to give 1-cyano-l-phenylcyclopentane (Scheme 5.1-23). This was in turn extracted from the ionic liquid with supercritical CO2. These... 

The reaction is a sensitive one, but is subject to a number of interferences. The solution must be free from large amounts of lead, thallium (I), copper, tin, arsenic, antimony, gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, and from elements in sufficient quantity to colour the solution, e.g. nickel. Metals giving insoluble iodides must be absent, or present in amounts not yielding a precipitate. Substances which liberate iodine from potassium iodide interfere, for example iron(III) the latter should be reduced with sulphurous acid and the excess of gas boiled off, or by a 30 per cent solution of hypophosphorous acid. Chloride ion reduces the intensity of the bismuth colour. Separation of bismuth from copper can be effected by extraction of the bismuth as dithizonate by treatment in ammoniacal potassium cyanide solution with a 0.1 per cent solution of dithizone in chloroform if lead is present, shaking of the chloroform solution of lead and bismuth dithizonates with a buffer solution of pH 3.4 results in the lead alone passing into the aqueous phase. The bismuth complex is soluble in a pentan-l-ol-ethyl acetate mixture, and this fact can be utilised for the determination in the presence of coloured ions, such as nickel, cobalt, chromium, and uranium.

Peschanski, using the isotopic method ( ° Hg), has found complete exchange (0 °C) in methanol and various other non-aqueous media. The separation methods used were, (a) paper and column chromatography, (b) paper electrophoresis, and (c) precipitation of Hg(I) with chloride. In the presence of cyanide ions, however, less than complete exchange could be observed. Zero-time exchange was again found to vary in the same manner as for aqueous media. Similar effects were observed in the presence of chloride ions.

The hydration number (the number of water molecules intimately associated with the salt) of the quaternary ammonium salt is very dependent upon the anion. The change in the order of reactivity is thus believed to be due to the hydration of the anion the highly hydrated chloride and cyanide ions are less reactive than expected, and the poorly hydrated iodide fares better under phase transfer conditions than in homogeneous reactions. Methanol may specifically solvate the anions via hydrogen bonding, and this effect is responsible for the low reactivity of more polar nucleophiles in that solvent. 

TBPA + is a commonly used ET oxidant. It also possesses electrophilic reactivity, reacting with bond formation to acetate, cyanide and chloride ion, all of which have high E° values (Table 5), to give 2-substituted derivatives of [10] (Eberson and Larsson, 1986,1987). Nucleophiles with lower E° (Br-, I, ...

In Table 5 the values for the free standard enthalpies for the reactions of neutral donors and anion donors with vanadyl acetylacetonate are listed. It can be seen that towards the reference molecule iodide ion is a somewhat weaker ligand than propanediol carbonate, whereas the bromide ion is between tri-methylphosphate and acetone, and the chloride ion between DMF and DMSO 22>. The fluoride ion and the NCS -ion are stronger donors than all neutral donors but are somewhat weaker than the azide and the cyanide ion. 

Copper forms practically aU its stable compounds in -i-l and +2 valence states. The metal oxidizes readily to -i-l state in the presence of various com-plexing or precipitating reactants. However, in aqueous solutions +2 state is more stable than -i-l. Only in the presence of ammonia, cyanide ion, chloride ion, or some other complexing group in aqueous solution, is the +1 valence state (cuprous form) more stable then the +2 (cupric form). Water-soluble copper compounds are, therefore, mostly cupric unless complexing ions or molecules are present in the system. The conversion of cuprous to cupric state and metalhc copper in aqueous media (ionic reaction, 2Cu+ — Cu° -i- Cu2+) has a Kvalue of 1.2x106 at 25°C.

The cyanide ion is sometimes described as a pseudo-halide ion, i.e. it behaves much like a halide ion. It has a radius of 187 pm, not very different from the 181 pm radius of the chloride ion, yet HC1 is a very strong acid and HCN is very weak, the difference between the two pKA values being about 16 units. The thermochemical cycle shown in Figure 3.1 is also applicable to the HC1/HCN comparison, and appropriate data are given in Table 3.4.
