热力学

金属离子配合物形成的热力学提供了许多重要的信息。[1] 特别是它在区分效应的时候很有用。焓效应取决于键强度,而熵效应取决于溶液中整体的有序和无序的变化。下面的螯合作用用热力学来解释是最好的。

平衡常数与该反应的标准吉布斯自由能变有关

ΔG = -2.303 RT log10 β.

R气体常数T热力学温度。在25 °C, ΔG = (−5.708 kJ mol−1) ⋅ log β。自由能由焓项和熵项组成。

ΔG = ΔHTΔS

标准焓变可以用量热法范特霍夫方程确定,但量热法更好。当标准焓变和稳定常数都已确定,标准熵变可以很容易的用上式计算出来。

MLn型的配合物的逐级稳定常数随着n的增大而减小的事实或许可以被熵因素部分解释。在正八面体的配合物形成时采用这个解释。

[M(H2O)mLn-1] +L ⇌ [M(H2O)m-1Ln]

第一步m = 6,n = 1,而配体可以结合六个位点中的一个。第二步m = 5,而第二个配体只能结合五个位点中的一个。这意味着第一步比第二步有更大的随机性;ΔS是正数,变得更大了,而ΔG是负数,变得更小了,所以log K1 > log K2。逐级稳定常数的比值可以在此基础上算得,但实验值与理论值并不完全吻合,因为每一步的ΔH并不一定相同。[2] 熵因素对以下的螯合作用也是很重要的。

离子浓度的影响

热力学平衡常数K对于这个平衡

M + L ⇌ ML

可以被定义为[3] as

{ML}是指ML物种的活度。因为活度是无量纲量,所以K无量纲量。生成物的活度放在分子,反应物的活度放在分母。这个表达式的推导参见活度系数

Since activity is the product of concentration and activity coefficient (γ) the definition could also be written as

where [ML] represents the concentration of ML and Γ is a quotient of activity coefficients. This expression can be generalized as

Dependence of the stability constant for formation of [Cu(glycinate)]+ on ionic strength (NaClO4)[4]

To avoid the complications involved in using activities, stability constants are determined, where possible, in a medium consisting of a solution of a background electrolyte at high ionic strength, that is, under conditions in which Γ can be assumed to be always constant.[3] For example, the medium might be a solution of 0.1 mol/dm−3 sodium nitrate or 3 mol/dm−3 potassium perchlorate. When Γ is constant it may be ignored and the general expression in theory, above, is obtained.

All published stability constant values refer to the specific ionic medium used in their determination and different values are obtained with different conditions, as illustrated for the complex CuL (L=glycinate). Furthermore, stability constant values depend on the specific electrolyte used as the value of Γ is different for different electrolytes, even at the same ionic strength. There does not need to be any chemical interaction between the species in equilibrium and the background electrolyte, but such interactions might occur in particular cases. For example, phosphates form weak complexes with alkali metals, so, when determining stability constants involving phosphates, such as ATP, the background electrolyte used will be, for example, a tetralkylammonium salt. Another example involves iron(III) which forms weak complexes with halide and other anions, but not with perchlorate ions.

When published constants refer to an ionic strength other than the one required for a particular application, they may be adjusted by means of specific ion theory (SIT) and other theories.[5]

Temperature dependence

All equilibrium constants vary with temperature according to the van 't Hoff equation[6]

R is the gas constant and T is the thermodynamic temperature . Thus, for exothermic reactions, (the standard enthalpy change, ΔH, is negative) K decreases with temperature, but for endothermic reactions (ΔH is positive) K increases with temperature.

Factors affecting the stability constants of complexes

The chelate effect

Cu2+ complexes with methylamine (left) end ethylene diamine (right)

Consider the two equilibria, in aqueous solution, between the copper(II) ion, Cu2+ and ethylenediamine (en) on the one hand and methylamine, MeNH2 on the other.

Cu2+ + en ⇌ [Cu(en)]2+ (1)
Cu2+ + 2 MeNH2 ⇌ [Cu(MeNH2)2]2+ (2)

In (1) the bidentate ligand ethylene diamine forms a chelate complex with the copper ion. Chelation results in the formation of a five–membered ring. In (2) the bidentate ligand is replaced by two monodentate methylamine ligands of approximately the same donor power, meaning that the enthalpy of formation of Cu—N bonds is approximately the same in the two reactions. Under conditions of equal copper concentrations and when then concentration of methylamine is twice the concentration of ethylenediamine, the concentration of the complex (1) will be greater than the concentration of the complex (2). The effect increases with the number of chelate rings so the concentration of the EDTA complex, which has six chelate rings, is much higher than a corresponding complex with two monodentate nitrogen donor ligands and four monodentate carboxylate ligands. Thus, the phenomenon of the chelate effect is a firmly established empirical fact: under comparable conditions, the concentration of a chelate complex will be higher than the concentration of an analogous complex with monodentate ligands.

The thermodynamic approach to explaining the chelate effect considers the equilibrium constant for the reaction: the larger the equilibrium constant, the higher the concentration of the complex.

[Cu(en)] = β11[Cu][en]
[Cu(MeNH2)2] = β12[Cu][MeNH2]2

When the analytical concentration of methylamine is twice that of ethylenediamine and the concentration of copper is the same in both reactions, the concentration [Cu(en)]2+ is much higher than the concentration [Cu(MeNH2)2]2+ because β11β12.

The difference between the two stability constants is mainly due to the difference in the standard entropy change, ΔS. In equation (1) there are two particles on the left and one on the right, whereas in equation (2) there are three particles on the left and one on the right. This means that less entropy of disorder is lost when the chelate complex is formed than when the complex with monodentate ligands is formed. This is one of the factors contributing to the entropy difference. Other factors include solvation changes and ring formation. Some experimental data to illustrate the effect are shown in the following table.[7]

Equilibrium log β ΔG ΔH /kJ mol−1 TΔS /kJ mol−1
Cd2+ + 4 MeNH2 ⇌ Cd(MeNH2)42+ 6.55 −37.4 −57.3 19.9
Cd2+ + 2 en ⇌ Cd(en)22+ 10.62 −60.67 −56.48 −4.19
an EDTA complex

These data show that the standard enthalpy changes are indeed approximately equal for the two reactions and that the main reason why the chelate complex is so much more stable is that the standard entropy term is much less unfavourable, indeed, it is favourable in this instance. In general it is difficult to account precisely for thermodynamic values in terms of changes in solution at the molecular level, but it is clear that the chelate effect is predominantly an effect of entropy. Other explanations, Including that of Schwarzenbach,[8] are discussed in Greenwood and Earnshaw.[7]

The chelate effect increases as the number of chelate rings increases. For example the complex [Ni(dien)2)]2+ is more stable than the complex [Ni(en)3)]2+; both complexes are octahedral with six nitrogen atoms around the nickel ion, but dien (diethylenetriamine, 1,4,7-triazaheptane) is a tridentate ligand and en is bidentate. The number of chelate rings is one less than the number of donor atoms in the ligand. EDTA (ethylenediaminetetracetic acid) has six donor atoms so it forms very strong complexes with five chelate rings. Ligands such as DTPA, which have eight donor atoms are used to form complexes with large metal ions such as lanthanide or actinide ions which usually form 8- or 9- coordinate complexes.

5-membered and 6-membered chelate rings give the most stable complexes. 4-membered rings are subject to internal strain because of the small inter-bond angle is the ring. The chelate effect is also reduced with 7- and 8- membered rings, because the larger rings are less rigid, so less entropy is lost in forming them.

The macrocyclic effect

It was found that the stability of the complex of copper(II) with the macrocyclic ligand cyclam (1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) was much greater than expected in comparison to the stability of the complex with the corresponding open-chain amine.[9] This phenomenon was named "the macrocyclic effect" and it was also interpreted as an entropy effect. However, later studies suggested that both enthalpy and entropy factors were involved.[10]

An important difference between macrocyclic ligands and open-chain (chelating) ligands is that they have selectivity for metal ions, based on the size of the cavity into which the metal ion is inserted when a complex is formed. For example, the crown ether 18-crown-6 forms much stronger complexes with the potassium ion, K+ than with the smaller sodium ion, Na+.[11]

In hemoglobin an iron(II) ion is complexed by a macrocyclic porphyrin ring. The article hemoglobin incorrectly states that oxyhemoglogin contains iron(III). It is now known that the iron(II) in hemoglobin is a low-spin complex, whereas in oxyhemoglobin it is a high-spin complex. The low-spin Fe2+ ion fits snugly into the cavity of the porhyrin ring, but high-spin iron(II) is significantly larger and the iron atom is forced out of the plane of the macrocyclic ligand.[12] This effect contributes the ability of hemoglobin to bind oxygen reversibly under biological conditions. In Vitamin B12 a cobalt(II) ion is held in a corrin ring. Chlorophyll is a macrocyclic complex of magnesium(II).

Geometrical factors

Successive stepwise formation constants Kn in a series such as MLn (n = 1, 2, ...) usually decrease as n increases. Exceptions to this rule occur when the geometry of the MLn complexes is not the same for all members of the series. The classic example is the formation of the diamminesilver(I) complex [Ag(NH3)2]+ in aqueous solution.

Ag+ + NH3 ⇌ [Ag(NH3)]+     
Ag(NH3)+ + NH3 ⇌ [Ag(NH3)2]+     

In this case, K2 > K1. The reason for this is that, in aqueous solution, the ion written as Ag+ actually exists as the four-coordinate tetrahedral aqua species [Ag(OH2)4]+. The first step is then a substitution reaction involving the displacement of a bound water molecule by ammonia forming the tetrahedral complex [Ag(NH3)(OH2)3]+ (commonly abbreviated as [Ag(NH3)]+). In the second step, the aqua ligands are lost to form a linear, two-coordinate product [H3N—Ag—NH3]+. Examination of the thermodynamic data shows that both enthalpy and entropy effects determine the result.[13]

equilibrium   ΔH /kJ mol−1     ΔS /J K−1 mol−1  
  Ag+ + NH3 ⇌ [Ag(NH3)]+   −21.4 8.66
  [Ag(NH3)]+ + NH3 ⇌ [Ag(NH3)2]+   −35.2 −61.26

Other examples exist where the change is from octahedral to tetrahedral, as in the formation of [CoCl4]2− from [Co(H2O)6]2+.

Classification of metal ions

Ahrland, Chatt and Davies proposed that metal ions could be described as class A if they formed stronger complexes with ligands whose donor atoms are N, O or F than with ligands whose donor atoms are P, S or Cl and class B if the reverse is true.[14] For example, Ni2+ forms stronger complexes with amines than with phosphines, but Pd2+ forms stronger complexes with phosphines than with amines. Later, Pearson proposed the theory of hard and soft acids and bases (HSAB theory).[15] In this classification, class A metals are hard acids and class B metals are soft acids. Some ions, such as copper(i) are classed as borderline. Hard acids form stronger complexes with hard bases than with soft bases. In general terms hard-hard interactions are predominantly electrostatic in nature whereas soft-soft interactions are predominantly covalent in nature. The HSAB theory, though useful, is only semi-quantitative.[16]

The hardness of a metal ion increases with oxidation state. An example of this effect is given by the fact that Fe2+ tends to form stronger complexes with N-donor ligands than with O-donor ligands, but the opposite is true for Fe3+.

Effect of ionic radius

The Irving-Williams series refers to high-spin, octahedral, divalent metal ion of the first transition series. It places the stabilities of complexes in the order

Mn < Fe < Co < Ni < Cu > Zn

This order was found to hold for a wide variety of ligands.[17] There are three strands to the explanation of the series.

  1. The ionic radius is expected to decrease regularly for Mn2+ to Zn2+. This would be the normal periodic trend and would account for the general increase in stability.
  2. The crystal field stabilisation energy (CFSE) increases from zero for manganese(II) to a maximum at nickel(II). This makes the complexes increasingly stable. CFSE returns to zero for zinc(II).
  3. Although the CFSE for copper(II) is less than for nickel(II), octahedral copper(II) complexes are subject to the Jahn-Teller effect which results in a complex having extra stability.

Another example of the effect of ionic radius the steady increase in stability of complexes with a given ligand along the series of trivalent lanthanide ions, an effect of the well-known lanthanide contraction.

Applications

Stability constant values are exploited in a wide variety of applications. Chelation therapy is used in the treatment of various metal-related illnesses, such as iron overload in β-thalassemia sufferers who have been given blood transfusions. The ideal ligand binds to the target metal ion and not to others, but this degree of selectivity is very hard to achieve. The synthetic drug Deferiprone achieves selectivity by having two oxygen donor atoms so that it binds to Fe3+ in preference to any of the other divalent ions that are present in the human body, such as Mg2+, Ca2+ and Zn2+. Treatment of poisoning by ions such as Pb2+ and Cd2+ is much more difficult since these are both divalent ions and selectivity is harder to accomplish.[18] Excess copper in Wilson's disease can be removed by penicillamine or Triethylene tetramine (TETA). DTPA has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treatment of plutonium poisoning.

DTPA is also used as a complexing agent for gadolinium in MRI contrast enhancement. The requirement in this case is that the complex be very strong, as Gd3+ is very toxic. The large stability constant of the octadentate ligand ensures that the concentration of free Gd3+ is almost negligible, certainly well below toxicity threshold.[19] In addition the ligand occupies only 8 of the 9 coordination sites on the gadolinium ion. The ninth site is occupied by a water molecule which exchanges rapidly with the fluid surrounding it and it is this mechanism that makes the paramagnetic complex into a contrast reagent.

EDTA forms such strong complexes with most divalent cations that it finds many uses. For example, it is often present in washing powder to act as a water softener by sequestering calcium and magnesium ions.

The selectivity of macrocyclic ligands can be used as a basis for the construction of an ion selective electrode. For example, potassium selective electrodes are available that make use of the naturally-occurring macrocyclic antibiotic valinomycin.

An ion-exchange resin such as chelex 100, which contains chelating ligands bound to a polymer, can be used in water softeners and in chromatographic separation techniques. In solvent extraction the formation of electrically-neutral complexes allows cations to be extracted into organic solvents. For example, in nuclear fuel reprocessing uranium(VI) and plutonium(VI) are extracted into kerosene as the complexes [MO2(TBP)2(NO3)2] (TBP = tri-'n-butyl phosphate). In phase-transfer catalysis, a substance which is insoluble in an organic solvent can be made soluble by addition of a suitable ligand. For example, potassium permanganate oxidations can be achieved by adding a catalytic quantity of a crown ether and a small amount of organic solvent to the aqueous reaction mixture, so that the oxidation reaction occurs in the organic phase.

In all these examples, the ligand is chosen on the basis of the stability constants of the complexes formed. For example, TBP is used in nuclear fuel reprocessing because (among other reasons) it forms a complex strong enough for solvent extraction to take place, but weak enough that the complex can be destroyed by nitric acid to recover the uranyl cation as nitrato complexes, such as [UO2(NO3)4]2- back in the aqueous phase.

Supramolecular complexes

Supramolecular complexes are held together by hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic forces, van der Waals forces, π-π interactions, and electrostatic effects, all of which can be described as noncovalent bonding. Applications include molecular recognition, host-guest chemistry and anion sensors.

A typical application in molecular recognition involved the determination of formation constants for complexes formed between a tripodal substituted urea molecule and various saccharides.[20] The study was carried out using a non-aqueous solvent and NMR chemical shift measurements. The object was to examine the selectivity with respect to the saccharides.

An example of the use of supramolecular complexes in the development of chemosensors is provided by the use of transition-metal ensembles to sense for ATP.[21]

Anion complexation can be achieved by encapsulating the anion in a suitable cage. Selectivity can be engineered by designing the shape of the cage. For example, dicarboxylate anions could be encapsulated in the ellipsoidal cavity in a large macrocyclic structure containing two metal ions.[22]

Experimental methods

The method developed by Bjerrum is still the main method in use today, though the precision of the measurements has greatly increased. Most commonly, a solution containing the metal ion and the ligand in a medium of high ionic strength is first acidified to the point where the ligand is fully protonated. This solution is then titrated, often by means of a computer-controlled auto-titrator, with a solution of CO2-free base. The concentration, or activity, of the hydrogen ion is monitored by means of a glass electrode. The data set used for the calculation has three components: a statement defining the nature of the chemical species that will be present, called the model of the system, details concerning the concentrations of the reagents used in the titration, and finally the experimental measurements in the form of titre and pH (or emf) pairs.

It is not always possible to use a glass electrode. If that is the case, the titration can be monitored by other types of measurement. Absorbance spectra, fluorescence spectra and NMR spectra are the most commonly used alternatives. Current practice is to take absorbance or fluorescence measurements at a range of wavelengths and to fit these data simultaneously. Various NMR chemical shifts can also be fitted together.

The chemical model will include values of the protonation constants of the ligand, which will have been determined in separate experiments, a value for log Kw and estimates of the unknown stability constants of the complexes formed. These estimates are necessary because the calculation uses a non-linear least-squares algorithm. The estimates are usually obtained by reference to a chemically similar system. The stability constant databases[23][24] can be very useful in finding published stability constant values for related complexes.

In some simple cases the calculations can be done in a spreadsheet.[25] Otherwise, the calculations are performed with the aid of a general-purpose computer programs. The most frequently used programs are:

In biochemistry, formation constants of adducts may be obtained from Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) measurements. This technique yields both the stability constant and the standard enthalpy change for the equilibrium.[34] It is mostly limited, by availability of software, to complexes of 1:1 stoichiometry.
