Summary

Kinetic and mechanistic studies of the displacement of aqua ligands from cis-[Cr(BigH)2(H2O)2]3+ (BigH = H2NC(NH)CHC(NH)NH2) by pyridine-2-aldoxime (LH) in EtOH-H2O mixtures, in the 30–45° C range, obey the following rate law over the 3.5–6.0 pH range,

$$\frac{{d[Cr(BigH)_2 (L)^{2 + } ]}}{{dt}} = \frac{{k_a K_E [Cr(BigH)_2 (H_2 O)_2^{3 + } ]_T [LH]}}{{1 + K_E [LH]}}$$

where K E is the ion pair equilibrium constant and k a is the rate constant for the interchange of the outer-sphere complex to inner-sphere complex. The anation rate constants are dependent upon pH but independent of ionic strength. Activation parameters (ΔH and ΔS ) have been evaluated from Eyring plots and a mechanism (I a) involving outer-sphere association of reactants followed by associate interchange of this outer-sphere complex into product is proposed.
