Transition Metal Nitrate Complex
A transition metal nitrate complex is a coordination compound A coordination complex consists of a central atom or ion, which is usually metallic and is called the ''coordination centre'', and a surrounding array of bound molecules or ions, that are in turn known as ''ligands'' or complexing agents. Many ... containing one or more nitrate ligands. Such complexes are common starting reagents for the preparation of other compounds. Ligand properties Being the conjugate base of a strong acid (nitric acid, pKa = -1.4), nitrate has modest Lewis basicity. Two coordination modes are common: unidentate and bidentate ligand, bidentate. Often, bidentate nitrate, denoted κ2-NO3, is bound unsymmetrically in the sense that one M-O distance is clearly bonding and the other is more weakly interacting. The MO-N distances for the coordinated oxygen are longer by about 10 picometers longer than the N-Oterminal bonds. This observation suggests that the terminal N-O bonds have double bond cha ...

Aqua Complex
In chemistry, metal aquo complexes are coordination compounds containing metal ions with only water as a ligand. These complexes are the predominant species in aqueous solutions of many metal salts, such as metal nitrates, sulfates, and perchlorates. They have the general stoichiometry . Their behavior underpins many aspects of environmental, biological, and industrial chemistry. This article focuses on complexes where water is the only ligand ("homoleptic aquo complexes"), but of course many complexes are known to consist of a mix of aquo and other ligands. Stoichiometry and structure Hexa-aquo complexes Most aquo complexes are mono-nuclear, with the general formula , with or 3; they have an octahedral structure. The water molecules function as Lewis bases, donating a pair of electrons to the metal ion and forming a dative covalent bond with it. Typical examples are listed in the following table. : Tutton's salts are crystalline compounds with the generic formula (where , ...

Nitronium Ion
The nitronium ion, , is a cation. It is an onium ion because its nitrogen atom has +1 charge, similar to ammonium ion . It is created by the removal of an electron from the paramagnetic nitrogen dioxide molecule , or the protonation of nitric acid (with removal of ). It is stable enough to exist in normal conditions, but it is generally reactive and used extensively as an electrophile in the nitration of other substances. The ion is generated ''in situ'' for this purpose by mixing concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated nitric acid according to the equilibrium: : Structure The nitronium ion is isoelectronic with carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide, and has the same linear structure and bond angle of 180°. For this reason it has a similar vibrational spectrum to carbon dioxide. Historically, the nitronium ion was detected by Raman spectroscopy, because its symmetric stretch is Raman-active but infrared-inactive. The Raman-active symmetrical stretch was first used to identif ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Metal Nitrosyl Complex
Sodium nitroprusside, a medicinally significant metal nitrosyl-pentacyanoferrate (Fe-III) compound, used to treat hypertension. Metal nitrosyl complexes are complex (chemistry), complexes that contain nitric oxide, NO, bonded to a transition metal. Many kinds of nitrosyl complexes are known, which vary both in structure and coligand. Bonding and structure Most complexes containing the NO ligand can be viewed as derivatives of the nitrosyl cation, NO+. The nitrosyl cation is isoelectronic with carbon monoxide, thus the bonding between a nitrosyl ligand and a metal follows the same principles as the bonding in carbonyl complexes. The nitrosyl cation serves as a two-electron donor to the metal and accepts electrons from the metal via back-bonding. The compounds Co(NO)(CO)3 and Ni(CO)4 illustrate the analogy between NO+ and CO. In an electron-counting sense, two linear NO ligands are equivalent to three CO groups. This trend is illustrated by the isoelectronic pair Fe(CO)2(NO)2 ...

Molecular Autoionization
In chemistry, molecular autoionization (or self-ionization) is a chemical reaction between molecules of the same substance to produce ions. If a pure liquid partially dissociates into ions, it is said to be self-ionizing. In most cases the oxidation number on all atoms in such a reaction remains unchanged. Such autoionization can be ''protic'' ( transfer), or ''non-protic''. Examples Protic solvents Protic solvents often undergo some autoionization (in this case autoprotolysis): *2 H2O H3O+ + OH- **The self-ionization of water is particularly well studied, due to its implications for acid-base chemistry of aqueous solutions. *2 NH3 NH4+ + NH2- *2 H2SO4 H3SO4+ + HSO4- *3 HF H2F+ + HF2- **Here proton transfer between two HF combines with homoassociation of and a third HF to form Non-protic solvents *2 PF5 PF6- + PF4+ *N2O4 NO+ + NO3- ** Here the nitrogen oxidation numbers change from (+4 and +4) to (+3 and +5). *2 BrF3 BrF2+ + BrF4- These solvents all possess ...

Dinitrogen Tetroxide
Dinitrogen tetroxide, commonly referred to as nitrogen tetroxide (NTO), and occasionally (usually among ex-USSR/Russia rocket engineers) as amyl, is the chemical compound N2O4. It is a useful reagent in chemical synthesis. It forms an equilibrium mixture with nitrogen dioxide. Its molar mass is 92.011 g/mol. Dinitrogen tetroxide is a powerful oxidizer that is hypergolic (spontaneously reacts) upon contact with various forms of hydrazine, which has made the pair a common bipropellant for rockets. Structure and properties Dinitrogen tetroxide could be regarded as two nitro groups (-NO2) bonded together. It forms an equilibrium mixture with nitrogen dioxide. The molecule is planar with an N-N bond distance of 1.78Å and N-O distances of 1.19Å. The N-N distance corresponds to a weak bond, since it is significantly longer than the average N-N single bond length of 1.45Å. This exceptionally weak σ bond (amounting to overlapping of the ''sp''2 hybrid orbitals of the two NO2 units) ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mercurous Nitrate
Mercury(I) nitrate is a inorganic compound, a salt of mercury and nitric acid with the formula Hg2(NO3)2. A yellow solid, the compound is used as a precursor to other complexes of Hg22+ complexes.The structure of the hydrate has been determined by X-ray crystallography. It consists of a 2O-Hg-Hg-OH2sup>2+ center, with a Hg-Hg distance of 254 pm. Reactions Mercury(I) nitrate is formed when elemental mercury is combined with ''dilute'' nitric acid (concentrated nitric acid will yield mercury(II) nitrate). Mercury(I) nitrate is a reducing agent which is oxidized upon contact with air. Mercuric nitrate reacts with elemental mercury to form mercurous nitrate. Solutions of mercury(I) nitrate are acidic due to slow reaction with water: :Hg2(NO3)2 + H2O ⇌ Hg2(NO3)(OH) + HNO3 Hg2(NO3)(OH) forms a yellow precipitate. If the solution is boiled or exposed to light, mercury(I) nitrate undergoes a disproportionation In chemistry, disproportionation, sometimes called dismutation, is a ...
