Abstract

From cyclic linear sweep voltammograms of some Cr(III) complexes it is evident that after electron transfer ligand groups are expelled relatively slowly inDMSO and the tetra coordinated complex is formed. The rate constants could be determined in some cases by the methods of cyclic voltammetry. The following compounds were examined: [Cr(en)3]3+, [Cr(acac)(en)2]2+, [Cr(acac)3]. [Cr(dien)2]3+, [Cr(DMSO)6]3+, [Cr(ur)6]3+. For [Cr(en)3]3+ the energy of activation could be determined as well.

The dependence of the velocity of ligand elimination on complex structure is discussed.

Zusammenfassung

Bei der Reduktion einiger der folgenden Cr(III)-Komplexe inDMSO läßt sich auf Grund der Voltammogramme auf eine Ligandenabspaltung und Bildung der vierfach koordinierten Cr(II)-Komplexe schließen: [Cr(en)3]3+, [Cr(acac)(en)2]2+, [Cr(acac)3], [Cr(dien)2]3+, [Cr(DMSO)6]3+, [Cr(ur)6]3+. Für das [Cr(en)3]3+ konnten Geschwindigkeitskonstante und Aktivierungsenergie dieser nachgelagerten Reaktion bestimmt werden.

Der Einfluß der Struktur des Komplexes auf die Zerfallsgeschwindigkeit wird diskutiert.
