Crown-metal complexation

The strength of this bonding depends on the kind of ether Simple ethers form relatively weak complexes with metal ions but Charles J Pedersen of Du Pont discovered that cer tain polyethers form much more stable complexes with metal ions than do simple ethers Pedersen prepared a series of macrocyclic polyethers cyclic compounds contain mg four or more oxygens m a ring of 12 or more atoms He called these compounds crown ethers, because their molecular models resemble crowns Systematic nomencla ture of crown ethers is somewhat cumbersome and so Pedersen devised a shorthand description whereby the word crown is preceded by the total number of atoms m the ring and is followed by the number of oxygen atoms... [Pg.669]

Ethers form Lewis acid Lewis base complexes with metal ions Certain cyclic polyethers called crown ethers, are particularly effective m coor dinatmg with Na" and K" and salts of these cations can be dissolved m nonpolar solvents when crown ethers are present Under these conditions the rates of many reactions that involve anions are accelerated... [Pg.692]

In 1967, DuPont chemist Charles J. Pedersen (21) discovered a class of ligands capable of complexing alkaU metal cations, a discovery which led to the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1987. These compounds, known as crown ethers or cryptands, allow gready enhanced solubiUty of sodium and other alkaU metals in amines and ethers. About 50 crown ethers having between 9—60 membered oligoether rings were described (22). Two such stmctures, dibenzo-18-crown-6 (1) and benzo-9-crown-3 (2), are shown. [Pg.163]

Crown ether (Section 16.4) A cyclic polyether that, via ion-dipole attractive forces, forms stable complexes with metal ions. Such complexes, along with their accompanying anion, are soluble in nonpolar solvents. [Pg.1280]

Further considerations. It needs to be noted that the stoichiometry of a given crown-metal complex is not only influenced by ring size a range of other factors which include the charge density on the metal, the nature of the anion, and the relative strain energies of the crown in different conformations may all make a contribution. [Pg.98]

Replacement of ethers by thioethers in crown compounds [see, for example (178)] also reduces their affinity for the alkali metals and again leads to a tendency to complex heavy metals such as Ag(i) more strongly (Pedersen, 1971 Frensdorff, 1971). [Pg.102]

The results of a temperature jump relaxation study of the complexation of metal cations by dibenzo-30-crown-10 [14] in methanol led Chock (1972) to propose a two-step mechanism. The first step (9) comprises a rapid equilibrium... [Pg.308]

The complexation of protonated amines, RNHJ, by crown ethers differs in many aspects from the complexation of metal cations. Whereas complexes with metal cations derive their binding energy mainly from electrostatic forces, complexes with ammonium ions are likely also to be stabilized by hydrogen... [Pg.362]

A different concept of chiral recognition was used by Lehn et al. (1978) for the differentiation between pairs of enantiomeric anions. Following the terminology used for metallo-enzymes, the chiral crown ether [309] acts as an apo-receptor, complexing a metal cation and thus becoming a chiral metal receptor that may discriminate between enantiomeric anions (cascade-type complexation). Extraction experiments with racemic mandelic acid dissolved in... [Pg.407]

FABMS has been used as a semiquantitative indication of the selectivity of receptors for particular guest metal cations (Johnstone and Rose, 1983). The FABMS competition experiment on [7] with equimolar amounts of the nitrates of sodium, potassium, rubidium and caesium gave gas-phase complex ions of ([7] + K)+ ion (m/z 809) and a minor peak ([7] + Rb)+ ion (m/z 855) exclusively. The relative peak intensities therefore suggested a selectivity order of K+ Rb+ Na+, Cs+, indicative of the bis-crown effect, the ability of bis-crown ether ligands to complex a metal cation of size larger than the cavity of a single crown ether unit, forming a sandwich structure. [Pg.12]

Known as crown ethers because of their crown-like shape, these ethers contain cavities that are ideal for forming complexes with metal ions. It is this property that allows ordinary salts to dissolve in organic solvents. For example, potassium permanganate is usually insoluble in benzene, but readily dissolves in benzene if [18]-crown-6 ether is added. This solution is useful because it allows oxidation with potassium permanganate to be carried out in organic solvents. The potassium ion (shown in green) is just the right size to fit into the cavity in the crown ether. [Pg.62]

More than 50 macrocyclic crown ethers were synthesised by Pedersen, and many were found to solublise alkali metal salts in non-polar solvents. He isolated 1 1 complexes with metal salts (87) and also showed that if the cation was too large to fit in the central hole, complexes with ratios of 1 2 or 2 3 (metal ether) could be obtained (88). Some of the larger ethers have been shown to complex two metal atoms simultaneously (89). Stability constants in solution are affected by the nature of the anion and the solvent. Both are also important in obtaining crystalline products. [Pg.97]

The complexation of metal ions with neutral molecules has also been studied extensively. We consider here the complexes of metal ions with macrocyclic ligands such as crown ethers and cryptands [33]. The 1 1 complexation of a metal ion Mn+ with macrocyclic ligand L is expressed by Eqs (2.8) and (2.9), where K is the complex formation constant ... [Pg.48]

It is well known that crown ethers can complex with metal ions through ion-dipole interaction and form hydrogen bonds with acidic protons such as NH, OH, and ammonium ions [9, 25, 26]. However, it was not until very recently that scientists started to utilize this interaction in the preparation of rotaxanes. [Pg.282]

This general trait of crown ethers and cryptands (to be discussed later) to stabilize alkali metal salts has been extended to even more improbable compounds, the al-kalides and electrides, which exist as complexed alkali metal cations and alkalide or electride anions. For example, we saw jn Chapter 10 that alkali metals dissolve in liquid ammonia (and some amines and ethers) to give solutions of alkali electrides 10 M M+ f e" (12.38)... [Pg.805]

The effect of cation-complexing agents on the barium(II)-assisted basic ethanolysis of phenyl acetate has been looked at.184 Addition of various crown ethers yields ternary complexes of 1 1 1 crown-metal-ethoxide composition and a definite cation activation takes place. Cryptand 222 removes the catalytic activity. [Pg.68]
