the formation of charge-transfer complexation between dibenzo-15-crown-5 (db15c5) and benzo-12-crown-4 (b12c4) (donor) and iodine is investigated spectrophotometrically in three chlorinated solvents,chloroform, dichloromethane (dcm) and 1,2-dichloroethane (dce) solution at 25°c. the change in polarityof the solvent also doesn’t affect the stoichiometry of the complexes. values of formation cons...

The feasibility of fabricating copper-sensitive chemically modified electrodes (CMEs) for trace analysis in aqueous and in 40% (v/v) ethanol-water media was investigated. Carbon paste electrodes modified with crown ethers were constructed by mixing the crown ethers into a graphite powder-paraffin oil matrix. The electrodes so formed were able to bind Cu(II) ions chemically and gave better volta...

The mobility of coordinated methanol in the complex [Co(II)(Benzo[ 15]crown-5)(CH3OH)2] + was studied in nitromethane. The methanol exchange mechanism tends to an associative nature with an increasing amount of methanol in the solutions as can be deduced from the activation entropy. All activation data can be combined in an isokinetic relationship which is also valid for the respective complex ...
