Abstract

Reaction kinetics of bis(2,2′-bipyridine) chloro and thiocyanato-N nickel(II) complexes with 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) have been studied in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) by spectrophotometry at 298 K. The rate constant kf0 of 37.2 mol-1 d s-1 for [Ni(bipy-N,N)2]2++bipy→[Ni(bipy-N,N)3]2+ is obtained. Interestingly, it is found that the corresponding apparent rate of formation kf of [Ni(bipy-N,N)3]2+ in solution containing chloride or thiocyanate ions is significantly smaller than kf0. In solution containing these anions, the [NiX(bipy-N,N)2]+ and [NiX2(bipy-N,N)2] (X=Cl or NCS) complexes are extensively formed, and their formation constants and individual electronic spectra have been determined. The kf of [Ni(bipy-N,N)3]2+ was thus analysed by considering the formation of these ternary complexes in equilibrium, and the intrinsic rate constants kf1 and kf2 for the reactions [NiX(bipy-N,N)2]++bipy→[Ni(bipy-N,N)3]2++X- and [NiX2(bipy-N,N)2]+bipy→[Ni(bipy-N,N)3]2++2X-, respectively, have been obtained. The kf1 and kf2 values thus obtained are significantly smaller than kf0, implying that these reaction pathways are strongly hindered. The formation of [Ni(bipy-N,N)3]2+ may proceed through either [Ni(bipy-N,N)2(bipy-N)S]2+ or [NiX(bipy-N,N)2(bipy-N)]+ as the intermediate, where bipy-N denotes a unidentately coordinating 2,2′-bipyridine and S the solvent. The kinetic results suggest that the pathway through the intermediate [NiX(bipy-N,N)2(bipy-N)]+ is unusually suppressed, probably due to strong intramolecular ligand–ligand interaction between a unidentately coordinating 2,2′-bipyridine and the anion.
