The thermal behaviour of complexes [Li+-EC](AlH4) withEC=12-C-4, 15-C-5, DC 18-C-6 (cis-anti-cis andcis-syn-cis isomers) was investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). These complexes were prepared as solids from benzene solutions. Pure EC and several solvated species [Li+-EC](AlH4)·nC6H6 (EC=15-C-5, DC 18-C-6syn) were also studied. DSC has revealed various phenomena. Solid-solid transitions were observed before melting for [Li+-EC](AlH4) withEC=12-C-4 and 15-C-5. They are probably explained by small molecular modifications strongly dependent on the thermal history of the sample. A glass-transition was found for the pure crown-ether DC 18-C-6anti, the complex [Li+-EC](A1H4) withEC=DC-18-C-6anti and the two solvates mentioned above.

Abstract  

Extraction of strontium and yttrium by the nitrobenzene solution of H+-form of heptachloro-bis-1,2-dicarbollylcobaltate (H+B) in the presence of benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5, L) has been investigated. The presence of B15C5 leads to a great synergistic effect for the extraction of strontium and an antagonistic effect for the extraction of yttrium. The extraction constants of Sr2+ complexes of B15C5 were determined. The separation factor a(Sr/Y) in the system with B15C5 presents the same order of magnitude as that for 15C5.

Abstract  

Enthalpies of solution of 15-crown-5 (15C5) in the mixtures of water with acetonitrile (AN) or propan-1-ol (PrOH) and benzo-15-crown-5 ether (B15C5) in the PrOH-water mixtures have been measured at 298.15 K. The values of standard enthalpies of solution of 15C5 are negative in the mixtures of water with AN within the whole range of mixture composition and in the mixtures water-PrOH for water content x w>0.1 and those of B15C5 are positive (except the standard enthalpy of B15C5 in pure water) in the system water-PrOH. The results of the calorimetric measurements together with the earlier data for B15C5 in water-acetonitrile mixtures are discussed with regard to the intermolecular interactions that occur in these systems.

Abstract  

The extraction of cesium, strontium and barium by a nitrobenzene solution of dicarbollylcobaltate in the presence of various crown ethers has been investigated and the influence of the substituent of crown to the extraction possibility has been observed. It has been found, that the addition of DB15C5, DB18C6 and DB21C7 (but not DB24C8 and DCH24C8) increases the distribution ratio of Cs by one order of magnitude. The fivemembered crowns are usually more efficient extractants for strontium than DCH18C6, which is widely used for strontium separation. The distribution ratio of strontium DSr decreases in the order 15-crown-5>benzo-15-crown-5>2-hydroxymethyl-15-crown-5>cyclohexyl-15-crown-5 >dibenzo-15-crown-5> nitrobenzo-15-crown-5. The selectivity α(Sr/Ca) decreases in the order 15C5>B15C5>DB15C5>2HM15C5>CH15C5. A selectivity factor α(Sr/Ca)≥1000 can be reached in the presence of 15C5 and B15C5. Six-membered and four-membered crowns extract strontium worse than most of the five-membered crowns. The selectivity factors α(Sr/Ca)≈100 have been reached for six-membered crowns and α(Sr/Ca)<1 has been found for 12C4. The extraction of barium by a nitrobenzene solution of dicarbollylcobaltate in the presence of 15C5 is even more efficient as the extraction of strontium. In that system DSr>104 and DBa>104 have been found for the extraction of Sr and Ba by a 0.01M nitrobenzene solution of dicarbollylcobaltate (cB=0.01 mol/l) from 0.1M HNO3. Maximal values of separation factor α(Ba/Sr) have been found in the system containing DB21C7.

Enthalpies of dissolution of benzo-15-crown-5 ether (B15C5) in mixtures of acetonitrile with water and in solutions of NaI and NaBPh4 (I=0.05 mol dm−3) in these mixtures were measured at 298.15 K. From the obtained results and appropriate literature data, the thermodynamic functions of B15C5/Na+ complex formation in acetonitrile-water mixtures were determined. The enthalpies of transfer of the complex B15C5/Na+ from pure acetonitrile to the examined mixtures were calculated and are discussed.

Abstract  

Extraction of85Sr by a nitrobenzene solution of bis-1,2-dicarbollylcobaltate in the presence of 15-crown-5 (15C5, L) has been investigated. The equilibrium data and the typical maxima concerning the dependencies of the Sr distribution ratios on the analytical concentration of 15C5 in the system under study can be explained assuming that the HL+, HL2 + and SrL2 2+ species are extracted into the nitrobenzene phase. The values of the corresponding extraction and stability constants of the extracted species in nitrobenzene saturated with water have been determined.

Abstract  

Extraction of calcium by a nitrobenzene solution of bis-1,2-dicarbollylcobaltate in the presence of 15-crown-5 (15C5, L) has been investigated. The equilibrium data and the typical maxima concerning the dependence of the Ca distribution ratios on the analytical concentration of 15C5 in the system under study can be explained assuming that the HL+, HL2 + and CaL2+, CaL2 2+ particles are extracted into the nitrobenzene phase. The values of the corresponding extraction and stability constants of the extracted species in nitrobenzene saturated with water have been determined and the mutual Sr/Ca separation has been discussed

Abstract  

The extraction behavior of perrhenate with crown ethers has been studied and methods for the separation and determination of rhenium have been developed. Perrhenate anion can be quantitatively extracted into nitrobenzene by benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) from 2M potassium hydroxide and back-extracted by sodium phosphate buffer solution. The molar ratio of B15C5 to KReO4 in the extracted species is probably 21. Rhenium was satisfactorily determined by neutron activation method in rock samples.

Abstract  

Extraction of microamounts of cesium by nitrobenzene solutions of sodium, ammonium and thallium dicarbollylcobaltates (M+B; M+ = Na+, NH4 +, Tl+) in the presence of benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5, L) has been investigated. The equilibrium data have been explained assuming that the complexes ML+ and ML2 + (M+ = Na+, NH4 +, Tl+; L = B15C5) are present in the organic phase. The stability constants of the complex species ML+ and ML2 + in nitrobenzene saturated with water have been determined.
