1976 1293Kinetic and Equilibrium Properties of Pentacyano( 3,5-d imethylpyrid ine)-iron(ii) and Related Anions in Mixed Aqueous Solvents tBy Michael J. Blandamer, John Burgess,. and Robert 1. Haines, Chemistry Department, University ofThe kinetic pattern for reaction of [Fe(CN),(3.5-Me,py)l3- and [Fe(CN)5(3-CNpy)]3- with a range of incorninggroups, in water and in 40% glycol and 40% t-butyi alcohol, IS consistent with the operation of a D mechanism underall the conditions studied. Rate constants for the reaction of [Fe(CN),(3,5-Me2py)l3- with cyanide ion havebeen determined in binary aqueous mixtures containing up to 40% by volume of methanol, ethanol, t-butyl alcohol,glycerol, or tetrahydrofuran. Correlation of these rate constants with Grunwald-Winstein Y values gives a valueof M of -0.1 ; this small value reflects the low sensitivity of the rate to solvent composition.Free energies ofactivation determined from the observed rate constants have been plotted against excess Gibbs free energies ofmixing (GE) for the respective solvent mixtures. The resulting pattern indicates how far the thermodynamiccharacteristics of mixing of the solvent are reflected in the kinetics of this substitution reaction. The relationbetween the relative stabilities of [Fe(CN),(3,5-Me2py)]3- and its pyridine analogue, and solvent mixture GEvalues, has also been examined. The solvatochromic behaviour of the charge-transfer band of [Fe(CN) 5(n/-methyl-pyrazinium)12- has been investigated, and contrasted with that of organic analogues.Leicester, Leicester LE1 7RHTHE majority of the numerous investigations of kineticsof substitution at inorganic complexes in mixed aqueoussolvents have been of reactions with a dissociative inter-change ( I d ) mechanism. In the present paper wereport the results of a study of the kinetics of sub-stitution at complexes of the type [Fe(CN),LI3-, whichproceeds by a limiting s ~ l ( D ) mechanism, in somemixed aqueous solvents.We compare the reactivitytrends for these reactions with those for I d aquation oftypical cobalt (111) amine halide complexes, and in-vestigate whether there is any connection between thevariation of kinetic parameters with solvent com-position and the excess molar Gibbs free energies ofmixing of the respective solvent mixtures.The relative stabilities of pairs of complexes[Fe(CN),LI3- (L = an alkylpyridine and pyridine itself)are known to depend on solvent composition. Wereport how these relative stabilities depend on solventcomposition for several series of binary aqueous mixtures,and compare these trends with reactivity trends forthese complexes.These studies indicate how a com-parison of both kinetic and equilibrium quantitiesdescribing the behaviour of solvents in solution on theone hand, and thermodynamic parameters characterisingthe respective binary aqueous mixtures on the other,can prove fruitful and informative.EXPERIMESTALReagents.-The salts Na,[Fe( CN) ,( 3,5-Me;py)], $ Na,-[Fe(CN),(3-Clpy)],$ and Na3[Fe(CN),(3-CNpy)] were pre-pared by published methods ; they analysed satisfactorily.Potassium cyanide, potassium thiocyanate, potassiumnitrate, pyrazine, and thiourea were AnalaR grade materials.The salt Na,[Fe(CK),(NH,)] (Hopkin and Williams) andNN-dimethyl-p-nitrosoaniline (Ralph N.Emanuel) wereused as supplied. N-Methylpyrazinium iodide was pre-pared from pyrazine and methyl iodide., Methanol wasdried over magnesium and iodine and then distilled;tetrahydrofuran and dioxan were freed from peroxides bypassing down a column of activated alumina; other7 No reprints available.f py = Pyridine, 3,5-Me2py = 3,5-dimethylpyridine, etc.9 K = K,~/l<,p from ref. 3.organic solvents were of the best commercially availablegrade and were used as received.Kinetics.-Kinetic runs were conducted in 1 cm silicacells in the thermostatted cell compartment of a UnicamSP 800A recording spectrophotometer.Rate constantswere computed (PDP 11) from the observed x-ariation ofoptical density using a standard least-mcan-squaresprogram.Equilibrium Studies.-Values for the equilibrium constantK $ for reaction (1) were obtained by a mcthod fullydescribed eIsewhere.3 We allowed a period of 3 h forequilibration ; results were calculated from optical densitiesCFe(CWpy)13- + 3,5-MezPy[Fe(CN),(3,5-Me2py)l3- -: PY (1)measured a t 650 nm. For a selection of reaction mixtures,optical densities were monitored a t intervals to check thatthe 3-h period was long enough for attaininent of equili-brium, but not so long that significant decomposition wasdetectable.RESULTSAll the kinetic runs were in the presence of a n excess ofthe incoming ligand.Under these conditions all the runswere first order in iron(I1) complex concentration up to atleast three half-lives. For the reactions of [Fe(CN),-(3, 5-Me2py)]3- with thiocyanate, thiourea, pyrazine, andN-methylpyrazinium, isosbestic points were observed at431, 515, 393, and 456 nm respectively. In these cases therate of formation of the product was confirmed t o be thesame as the rate of disappearance of the starting complex(cf.

The very different behaviourof thiocyanate as entering group (Figure 2) indicatesthat it competes only feebly with the leaving 3,5-Me2py;indeed these reactions go to equilibrium rather than tocompletion.Rates of substitution at these [Fe(CN),LI3- anions areremarkably insensitive to the composition of the mixedaqueous solvent. In this they resemble the complex[Fe(CN),(bipy),] lo (bipy = 2,2’-bipyridyl).The de-pendence of reactivity on solvent composition is illus-trated, for the 3,5-Me2py complex, by the form of aGrunwald-Winstein mY plot l1 in Figure 3. Thecorrelation lines corresponding to the three organicco-solvents do not quite coincide; such behaviour fordissociative inorganic reactions has been established forcobalt (111) complexes.l2 The Grunwald-Winstein mvalue for aquation of cobalt(II1) chloride complexes isca. 0.3,12 but for substitution a t [Fe(CN),(3,5-Me2py)l3-is ca. -0.l.t Negative m values have previously beenreported for inorganic substitution reactions, for exampleaquation of the hexabromorhenate(1v) anion, wherem = -0.55.13 Both these negative m values areassociated with reactions in which one of the separatingmoieties is a negatively charged species containingseveral hydrophilic groups, viz.cyanide or bromide1igands.S If indeed it is the solvation of the [Fe(CN)J3-moiety rather than that of the 3,5-Me2py leaving groupwhich determines the solvent variation of reactivity inour system, then it is easy to understand how the ratioof substitution rates in say water and in 40% aqueoust This value was estimated from the results in the ‘ typicallyaqueous ’ (t.a.) solvent mixtures, ignoring results in aqueousglycol (‘ typically non-aqueous negative ’, t.n.a.n.) .Interestingly, rates of substitution at [Co(CN),(OH,)I2-, e.g.by [NJ-, also increase on going from aqueous solution to aqueousethanol or to aqueous t-butyl alcohol.1410 J.

Kosower, ‘ Introduction to Physical Organic Chem-istry,’ Wiley, New York, 1968, chs. 2.6 and 2.7.t-butyl alcohol is very similar for the leaving groups3,5-Me2py, 3-CNpy, and 3-Clpy (Table 1) despite theexpected differences in solvation of these three species,as evidenced by their very different solubilities in water.We are currently interested in examining whetherreactivities in substitution reactions in binary aqueousmixtures can be correlated with excess Gibbs freeenergies of mixing of the respective mixtures. We havehad some success in such an analysis of aquation of thetris(5-nitro-l,lO-phenanthroline)iron(11) cation, [Fe(5-NO2phen),l2+, and of the solvolysis of t-butyl ch10ride.l~Binary aqueous mixtures can be classified in threegroups according to their excess molar thermodynamicfunctions of mixing.16 These are the ‘ typicallyaqueous’ (La.) mixtures where GE is positive and isdominated by its entropy component over the enthalpycomponent (1TSEl > IHEl), ‘ typically non-aqueous posi-tive ’ (t.n.a.p.) with positive GE and JHEJ > ITSEI, and‘ typically non-aqueous negative ’ (t .n.a.n.) with negativeGE but again IHEI > ITS”I.17J8 Satisfactory results forsubstitution at the [Fe(CN),LI3- complexes have beenobtained for a range of t.a.mixtures and for t.n.a.n.mixtures containing glycol or glycerol. In Figure 4 ourkinetic results, in terms of the change in the Gibbs freeenergy of activation (6,AGZ) derived from transition-state theory treatment of the experimental rate con-stants, are plotted against the respective GE values.‘Oo0 1FIGURE 4 Relation between 6,AG: and GE for limiting rates ofsubstitution at [Fe(CN),(3,5-Me,py)I3- in binary aqueousmixtures.Co-solvents: ( b ) , MeOH; (O), EtOH; ( V ) ,ButOH; (a), thf (t.a. mixtures); (m), glycerol; and (A),glycol (t.n.a.n. mixtures)The latter were calculated from published thermo-dynamic data (for detailed references see ref. 15) andl2 G.

In the present case,unlike that of aquation of [Fe(5-N0,phen)3]2f, but likethat of t-butyl chloride solvolysis, results in aqueousglycol can be accommodated within the general 6,AGt-GE correlation.

Aswith similar plots for aquation of [Fe(5-N02phen),]2+and for solvolysis of t-butyl chloride, a consistentpattern is obtained for t.a.mixtures, but a complexpattern emerges for t.n.a.n. mixtures.The above kinetic and thermodynamic aspects ofreactions of [Fe(CN),LI3- anions are related, cf. equations(1)-(3).
