Electrospray ionization (ESI) and ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) were employed to investigate the solvated structures of ionic species in the lithium iodide electrolyte solution in the gas phase. The Li⁺I^-Li⁺ triple ion and single standalone Li+ ions solvated by 1,4-dioxane were successfully generated and observed by ESI-MS under the influence of dioxane vapor at the inlet region. Under the present experimental condition, (1,4-dioxane)_m·Li⁺ complex ions (m = 1, 2, and 3) and a (1,4-dioxane)·Li⁺I^-Li⁺ complex ion were observed, which were further examined by IMS to investigate their structures. The presence of multiple structural isomers was confirmed, which accounts for the endothermic conformational transition of 1,4-dioxane from a chair to a boat to achieve bidentate O-donor binding to Li⁺ and Li⁺I^-Li⁺. Further structural details critical for the ion-solvent interactions were also examined and discussed with the help of density functional theory calculations.

The structure of [Cu(tpen)]$(ClO_4)_2$ (tpen = N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine) has been identified by X-ray crystallography. The copper(II) ion is surrounded by two amine N atoms and three pyridine N atoms of the ligand, making a distorted trigonal-bipyramid. Among the six potential N donor atoms (two amine N and four pyridine N atoms), only one pyridine N atom remains uncoordinated. We examined structural changes on addition of $Cl^-$ to $[Cu(tpen)]^{2+}$(1). The addition of $Cl^-$ in methanol resulted in the formation of a novel dinuclear copper(II) complex $[Cu_2Cl_2(tpen)](ClO_4)_2{\cdot}H_2O$. The structure of the dinuclear complex was verified by X-ray crystallography. Each copper(II) ion in the dinuclear complex showed a distorted square planar geometry with two pyridine N atoms, one amine N atom and one $Cl^-$ ion.

Various thiocyanatoammine chromium complex salts are prepared by the known methods and the Rf. value of these complex salts are determined by four developers. These four developers were used in the paper chromatographical work of cobalt complex salts by Yamamoto in 1954. It was also found that the developer A (Ch$_{3}$OH, acetone, NH$_{4}$OH) gave best results of these four developers and the decending development gave better results than ascending development in this experiment. In the case of decending development using developer A, it is found that the Rf. value is increased with the number of thiocyanate radical. The reason of this curious results can be explained that the thiocyanate radical in the complex ion is more active for the organic solvent than ammine radical. Shifting of electrons to the central metal and the charge of the complex ion can also effect ot the Rf. value but much questions are remained for the explanation of the above curious phenomenon. Separation of mixed sample is also studied for various mixture of the above complex salts. In the case of the mixture of hexammine and diammine complex salt, the clear separation is possible but in almost all other mixed sample, the results are not clear. Therefore it can be said that the results of this work can be used in the qualitative analysis of the individual complex salts, except the mixed sample of hexammine and diammine complex salts.

The adsorption method for the determination of the formation constants of the metal complexes with organic acids was developed by using membrane filters. The adsorption method involved the measurements of radioactivities of the adsorbed metal on membrane filters and the filtrate solution after the radioactive metal ion were filtered through membrane filters in the presence of organic ions of varying concentration. Comparing the adsorption method with the ion exchange method, it was seen that the adsorption method was simpler and faster than the ion exchange method. As an example of the metal complex with organic acid yttrium citrate complex was chosen, and the formation constant of the complex obtained by the adsorption method showed $K_f=2.0{\times}10^{-4}(l. mole^{-1})$ at a pH of 7. Also the present study revealed that the carrierfree state of yttrium in aqueous solution was present in the completely ionized state.

A kinetic study is reported for $S_NAr$ reaction of 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (5a) and 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (5b) with alkali-metal ethoxides (EtOM, M = Li, Na, K and 18-crown-6-ether complexed K) in anhydrous ethanol. The second-order rate constant increases in the order $k_{EtOLi}$ < $k_{EtO^-}$ < $k_{EtONa}$ < $k_{EtOK}$ < $k_{EtOK/18C6}$ for the reaction of 5a and $k_{EtOLi}$ < $k_{EtONa}$ < $k_{EtO^-$ < $k_{EtOK}$ < $k_{EtOK/18C6}$ for that of 5b. This indicates that $M^+$ ion behaves as a catalyst or an inhibitor depending on the size of $M^+$ ion and the nature of the leaving group ($F^-$ vs. $Cl^-$). Substrate 5a is more reactive than 5b, although the $F^-$ in 5a is ca. $10pK_a$ units more basic than the $Cl^-$ in 5b, indicating that the reaction proceeds through a Meisenheimer complex in which expulsion of the leaving group occurs after the rate-determining step (RDS). $M^+$ ion would catalyze the reaction by increasing either the nucleofugality of the leaving group through a four-membered cyclic transition state or the electrophilicity of the reaction center through a ${\pi}$-complex. However, the enhanced nucleofugality would be ineffective for the current reaction, since expulsion of the leaving group occurs after the RDS. Thus, it has been concluded that $M^+$ ion catalyzes the reaction by increasing the electrophilicity of the reaction center through a ${\pi}$-complex between $M^+$ ion and the ${\pi}$-electrons in the benzene ring.

The synthesis and properties of 2,13-bis(3'-pyridylmethyl) $(L^3)$, 2,13-bis(4'-pyridylmethyl) $(L^4)$, and 2,13-bis(phenylmethyl) $(L^5)$ derivatives of 5,16-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatrcyclo$[16.4.0.^{1.18}0^{7.12}]$docosane are reported. The 3- or 4-pyridylmethyl groups of $[ML^3](ClO_4)_2\;or\;[ML^4](ClO_4)_2$ (M = Ni(Ⅱ) or Cu(Ⅱ)) are not involved in coordination, and the coordination geometry (square-planar) and ligand field strength of the complexes are quite similar to those of $[ML^5](ClO_4)_2$, bearing two phenylmethyl pendant arms. However, the complex formation reactions of $L^3\;and\;L^4$ are strongly influenced by the pyridyl groups, which can interact with a proton or metal ion outside the macrocyclic ring. The macrocycle $L^5$ exhibits a high copper(Ⅱ) ion selectivity against nickel(Ⅱ) ion; the ligand readily reacts with copper(Ⅱ) ion to form $[CuL^5]^{2+}$ but does not react with hydrated nickel(Ⅱ) ion in methanol solutions. On the other hand, $L^3\;and\;L^4$ form their copper(Ⅱ) and nickel(Ⅱ) complexes under a similar condition, without showing any considerable metal ion selectivity. The ligands $L^3\;and\;L^4$ react with copper(Ⅱ) ion more rapidly than does $L^5$ at pH 6.4. At pH 5.0, however, the reaction rate of the former macrocycles is slower than that of the latter. The effects of the 3- or 4-pyridylmethyl pendant arms on the complex formation reaction of $L^3\;and\;L^4$ are discussed.

We report the complexation behavior of calix[4]arenemonoquinone-triacid (CTAQ), which is an electroactive and water-soluble receptor for calcium ion. UV-visible and NMR spectroscopic studies revealed that CTAQ in aqueous media forms 1:2 as well as 1:1 (metal ion:CTAQ) stoichiometric complexes with $Ca^{2+}$, $Sr^{2+}$, and $Ba^{2+}$ ions. The nonlinear fitting of titration curves based on UV-visible absorption spectra showed that the binding constants of CTAQ for $Ca^{2+}$ ion are 4 $({\pm}2){\times}10^6\;M^{-1}$ for 1:1 and 1.4 $({\pm}0.5){\times}10^{11}\;M^{-2}$ for 1:2 complex. NMR conformational studies and the titration curves corroborate that the $Ca^{2+}$:CTAQ complex in aqueous solution is not present in the form of merely 1:1 one, being consistent with UV-visible spectrophotometric results. The Monte Carlo simulation supports the presence of a stable conformer of 1:2 complexes in which a $Ca^{2+}$ ion is interposed between two CTAQs at the global minimum. This is the first model of 1:2 stoichiometric complex of calix[4]arene and alkaline earth ions in aqueous media.

A nitrate ion-selective PVC membrane electrode based on ammonia modified bakelite A-Ni$(NO_3)_2$ complex as ion exchanger was prepared. The electrode gave a linear response with a Nernstian slope of 60mV per decade within the concentration range $1{\sim}10^{-4}$ M $KNO_3$ but nonresponse to hydrogen ion and multivalent anions. The selectivity, response time and life time of the electrode were investigated and it was found that the electrode exhibited good selectivity for four univalent anions ($Cl^-,\;Br^-,\;I^-,\;{ClO_4}^-$). Analytical application to the determination of nitrate were also studied.

Halopyrroles, N-substituted 2-halopyrroles were prepared by halogenation of N-substituted pyrroles with NBS, NCS, or surfuryl chloride. N-Substituted 3-halopyrroles were synthesized by acid-catalyzed thermal and photochemical isomerization reactions of N-substituted 2-halopyrroles. Both the thermal and photochemical reactions were acid-catalyzed. For the acid-catalyzed isomerization, a mechanism of [1,3] bromine shift followed by deprotonation is operated. For the acid-catalyzed photoisomerization, an excited triplet state of 2-protonated N-benzyl-2-halopyrrole produces an intermediate N-substituted pyrrole complex with halonium ion which is equilibrated with N-substituted pyrrole plus halonium ion, and then the halonium ion newly adds to 3-position of N-substituted pyrrole followed by deprotonation to afford N-benzyl-3-halopyrrole.
