Cobalt dithiocarbamates

Zn by using the cobalt dithiocarbamate co-precipitation and back extraction (14) method. The blanks underwent a similar procedure. Both blanks and sample extracts were analyzed with a Hitachi 180-80 atomic absorption spectrophotometer, equipped with Zeeman background correction. The method of standard additions was used to correct matrix effects during analysis. The analytical conditions during the experiment were those recommended by the vendor (15). 

Cobalt dithiocarbamate complexes are now known in oxidation states - -1 to +4, the first reported examples being the tris(dithiocarbamate) complexes [Co(S2CNR2)3], which were prepared in 1920 (1388). 

Lead, mercury, cadmium and cobalt dithiocarbamate complexes are all oxidized at very much more positive potentials than Cu(dtc)2. A potential of +0.95 V vs Ag/AgCl can be used for the determination of cobalt. Careful selection of the applied potential, JSapp, to avoid the ligand-based thiuram disulfide (background) response enables the determination of lead (Eapp = +0.80 V vs Ag/AgCl) and cadmium (E pp = +0.90 V vs... 

The alleged preparation of the supposed cobalt(II) complex Na[Co(Et2dtc)3] described by D Ascenzo and Wendlandt (305) has been repeated by Holah and Murphy (306), who identified the product as [Co(Et2dtc)3]. Complexes of cobalt(III), nickel(II), and palladium(II) salts with cationic, dithiocarbamate ligands have been synthesized (307). Reaction of the secondary amine (Et2N(CH2)2)2NH with CS2 produces... 

Thiolates are strong ligands and a rich coordination chemistry with cobalt(III) exists. Normally, thiols are employed directly in synthesis, and this is the usual entry into their coordination chemistry. However, alternative approaches do appear from time to time, and recently the cobalt-mediated direct thiolation of an aromatic ring in bidentate phenyl(2-pyridyl)diazene using dithiocarbamate ion to produce a coordinated tridentate thiolate has been reported.1034... 

Cobalt(III) complexes of formula cis- and trans-[Co(dtc)L4]2+ and [Co(dtc)2L2]+ where dtc = dimethyl-, diethyl- or piperidino-dithiocarbamate were prepared with phosphites P(OMe)3, P(OEt)3 and 4-ethyl-2,6,7-trioxa-l-phophabicyclo[2.2.2]octane as ligands L.1048 Whereas Co—P bonding is found, as defined in the crystal structures of each of the two forms of complexes isolated, a linkage isomer in which the phosphite is O bound was detected for the bis(dithio-carbamate) compounds. 

Interesting results were reported with dithiocarbamates derived from diamines. Thus, a series of dinuclear zinc(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) dithiocarbamate ditopic macrocyclic receptors containing various spacer groups of different sizes has been reported.412,413,414 Spectroscopic investigations and... 

Van den Berg [620] also reported a direct determination of sub-nanomolar levels of zinc in seawater by cathodic stripping voltammetry. The ability of ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate to produce a significant reduction peak in the presence of low concentrations of zinc was used to develop a method capable of achieving levels two orders of magnitude below those achieved with anodic stripping voltammetry. Interference from nickel and cobalt ions could be overcome by using a collection potential of 1.3 V, and interference from... 

Cabezon et al. [662] simultaneously separated copper, cadmium, and cobalt from seawater by coflotation with octadecylamine and ferric hydroxide as collectors prior to analysis of these elements by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. The substrates were dissolved in an acidified mixture of ethanol, water, and methyl isobutyl ketone to increase the sensitivity of the determination of these elements by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The results were compared with those of the usual ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate/methyl isobutyl ketone extraction method. While the mean recoveries were lower, they were nevertheless considered satisfactory. 

Jin [666] used ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry to determine lead, cadmium, copper, cobalt, tin, and molybdenum in seawater. 

A poly(acrylaminophosphamic-dithiocarbamate) chelating fibre hasbeen used to preconcentratrate several trace metals in seawater by a factor of 200 [957]. The elements included beryllium, bimuth, cobalt, gallium, silver, lead, cadmium, copper, manganese, and indium. ICP-MS was used for detection.

Tseng et al. [69] determined 60cobalt in seawater by successive extractions with tris(pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate) bismuth (III) and ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate and back-extraction with bismuth (III). Filtered seawater adjusted to pH 1.0-1.5 was extracted with chloroform and 0.01 M tris(pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate) bismuth (III) to remove certain metallic contaminants. The aqueous residue was adjusted to pH 4.5 and re-extracted with chloroform and 2% ammonium pyrrolidine thiocarbamate, to remove cobalt. Back-extraction with bismuth (III) solution removed further trace elements. The organic phase was dried under infrared and counted in a ger-manium/lithium detector coupled to a 4096 channel pulse height analyser. Indicated recovery was 96%, and the analysis time excluding counting was 50-min per sample. 

Preliminary results showed that these types of compounds are possible inhibitors of the corrosion of iron in acids. This anticorrosion behavior is believed to arise from the fact that a dithiocarbamate-substituted cobalt cyclam can affect the hydrogen evolution reaction within the system. A... 

Samples of metal complexes isolated from the final solutions were subjected to microanalysis (for carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur). Metals were determined colorimetrically by the following methods— copper as the complex formed with sodium diethyl dithiocarbamate (6) cobalt as the nitroso-R salt complex (7) nickel as the dimethylglyoxime complex (4). 

Hydrolysis of peptides,84 amides,85 phosphate esters,86 sulfonate esters87 and acetals88 can also be metal catalyzed. The hydrolysis of a phosphate ester coordinated to cobalt(III) also occurs at an increased rate (Scheme 19).89 A rather similar reaction occurs in the amine exchange of coordinated dithiocarbamates (equation 21).90 The conversion of imidates to amidines has been mentioned previously and is a similar type of reaction (see Section 7.4.2.2.1). 

The availability of strongly chelating extractant reagents for a number of metals has lead to the development of procedures in which the metal is extracted from minimally treated blood or urine and then quantified by atomic absorption analysis. The metals for which such extractions can be used include cobalt, lead, and thallium extracted into organic solvent as the dithiocarbamate chelate, and nickel extracted into methylisobutyl ketone as a chelate formed with ammonium pyrro-lidinedithiocarbamate.

I. Narin, M. Soylak, Enrichment and determinations of nickel (II), cadmium(II), copper(II), cobalt(II), and lead(II) ions in natural waters, table salts, tea and urine samples as pyrrolydine dithiocarbamate chelates by membrane filtration-flame atomic absorption spectrometry combination, Anal. Chim. Acta, 493 (2003), 205-212. 

Tris(pyrrolidine dithiocarbamato-)—cobalt(III) chelate, the precipitate formed by adding ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate to cobalt(II) solutions, has been found to be a good matrix for preconcentrating lead and several other metals by co-precipitation. Concentration factors of 40 to 400 are available by the method. The analyte is co-precipitated on the Co-APDC from a litre of sample. The precipitate is filtered on a fine porosity glass sinter and redissolved in a small volume of 6 M nitric acid. The solution is then used for atomic absorption analysis.
