Electrochemical properties of Georgia kaolinite in aqueous suspension were studied by ion adsorption, potentiometric titration, and electrophoretic mobility measurements. Kaolinite in 0.001 M and 0.1 M NaCl solution showed qualitatively both pH independent and pH depender negative and positive charges through pH range 2.5-11.0 when dissolved aluminum ions from kaolinite were considered as well as $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ as index ions. Electrophoretic mobilities (EM) of 0.02 wt. % kaolinite suspension in distilled water and 0.001 M NaCl solution were approximately constant against mobility measuring time consumed in the electrophoresis cell at different pH values, and isoelectric points(IEP) were around pH 4.7. EM values in 0.1 M NaCl solution were positive and constant against mobility measuring time below pH 4; but above pH 4, EM values were negative for the first 10 seconds followed by positive values which became approximately constant through stepped changes after 10 minutes. Hydrated cations may bind to the six- member oxygen ring sites having multiple partial negative charges on the exterior tetrahedral layer surface by both electrostatic and hydrogen bonding force while hydrated anions bind to the partially positively charged hydrogen atoms on the exterior octahedral layer surface. Parts of the aluminol groups on the exterior octahedral layer surface as well as edge faces may be involved in complex reactions and have both anion and cation exchange capacities in the electrolyte solution above pH 4.

Complexation of $Cd^{2+},\;Pb^{2+}\;and\;Hg^{2+}$ ions with four cryptands were studied by potentiometry and solution calorimetry in various weight percent methanol-aqueous solvent at 25${\circ}$C under $CO_2$free nitrogen atmosphere. The stabilities of the complexes were dependent on the cavity size of macrocycles. The $Hg^{2+}$ ion stability constants are higher than those of $Cd^{2+}\;and\;Pb^{2+}$ ion. All the cryptands formed complexes having 1 : 1 (metal to ligand) mole-ratio except for $Hg^{2+}-L_1$ (cryptand 1,2b: 3,5-benzo-9,14,17-trioxa-1,7-diazabicyclo-(8,5,5) heptadecane) and $Cd^{2+}-L_2$ (cryptand 2,2b: 3,5-benzo-10,13,18,21-tetraoxa-1,7-diazabicyclo (8,5,5) eicosane) complexes. $Hg^{2+}-L_1$ complex was a sandwitch type, and the $Cd^{2+}-L_2$ complex showed two stepwise reactions. Thermodynamic parameters of the $Cd^{2+}-L_2$ complex were $6.08(log\;K_1)$, -7.28 Kcal/mol $({\Delta}H_1)$, and $4.78\;(log\;K_2)$, -4.62 Kcal/mol $({\Delta}H_2)$, respectively, for 1 : 1 and 2: 1 mole-ratio. The sequences of the selectivity were increased in the order of $Hg^{2+}\;>Pb^{2+}\;>Cd^{2+}$ ion for $L_3\;and\;L_4$ macrocycles, and the $L_2$-macrocycle has a selectivity for $Cd^{2+}$ ion relative to $Zn^{2+},\;Ni^{2+},\;Pb^{2+}\;and\;Hg^{2+}$ ions. Thus, it is expected that the $L_2$ can be used as carrier for seperation of the post transition metals by macrocycles-mediated liquid membrane because $L_2$ is not soluble in water, and the difference of stability constants of the metal complexes with $L_2$ are large as compared with the other transition metal complexes. The $^1H\;and\;^{13}C-NMR studies indicated that the nitrogen atoms of cryptands have greater affinity to the post transition metal ions than the oxygen atoms, and that the planarities of the macrocycles were lost by complexation with the metal ions because of the perturbation of ring current of benzene molecule attached to macrocycles and counter-anions.

Oligomerization of phenylacetylene is catalyzed by $Rh(ClO_4)(CO)(PPh_3)_2$ (Rh-1), $[Rh(CO)(PPh_3)_3]ClO_4$ (Rh-2), $[Rh(COD)L_2]ClO_4 (L_2=(PPh_3)_2$, Rh-3; $(PPh_3)(PhCN)$, Rh-4; $(PhCN)_2$, Rh-5), $[Rh(C_3H_5)(Cl)(CO)(SbPh_3)_2]ClO_4$ (Rh-6), $[Ir(COD)L_2]ClO_4 (L_2=(PPh_3)_2$, $Ir-1; (PPh_3)(PhCN)$, $Ir-2; (PhCN)_2$, Ir-3; (AsPh_3)(PhCN)$, $Ir-4; Ph_2PCH_2CH_2PPh_2$, Ir-5; COD, Ir-6 and 2,2'-dipyridyl, Ir-7), $Ir(ClO_4)(CO)(PPh_3)_2$, $Ir-8, [Ir(PhCN)(CO)(PPh_3)_2]ClO_4$, Ir-9 to produce dimerization products, 1,3-diphenylbut-1-yn-3-ene, 1, (E)-1,4-diphenylbut-1-yn-3-ene, 2 and (Z)-1,4-diphenylbut-1-yn-3-ene, 3, and cyclotrimerization products, 1,3,5-triphenylbenzene, 4 and 1,2,4-triphenylbenzene, 5. Product distribution of the oligomers varies depending on various factors such as the nature of catalysts, reaction temperature, counter anions and excess ligand present in the reaction mixtures. Increasing reaction temperature in general increases the yield of the cyclotrimerization products. Exclusive production of dimer 1 and trimer 4 can be obtained with Ir-1 at 0 $^{\circ}$C and with Ir-2 in the presence of excess PhCN (or $CH_3CN$) at 50 $^{\circ}$C, respectively. Dimer 2 (up to 81%) and trimer 5 (up to 98%) are selectively produced with Rh-1 at 50 and 100 $^{\circ}$C respectively. Production of 3 is selectively increased up to 85% by using $PF_6$- salt of $[Ir(COD)(PPh_3)_2]$+ at 25 $^{\circ}$C. Addition of $CH_3I$ to Rh-1 produces $CH_3PPh_3^+I-$ and increases the rate of oligomerization(disappearance of phenylacetylene). Among the metal compounds investigated in this study, Ir-1 catalyzes most rapidly the oligomerization where the catalytically active species seems to contain lr(PPh3)2 moiety. The stoichiometric reaction of phenylacetylene wth Ir-9 at 25 $^{\circ}$C quantitatively produces hydridophenyl-ethynyl iridium(III) complex, $[lr(H)(C{\equiv}CPh)(PhCN)(CO)(PPh_3)_2]ClO_4$ (Ir-11), which seems to be an intermediate for the oligomerization.
