AN IMPROVED METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING OLIGO(ETHYLENE GLYCOL) BIS[2-(DIPHENYLPHOSPHINOYL)ETHYL] ETHERS AND THEIR COMPLEX-FORMING PROPERTIES WITH RESPECT TO ALKALI-METAL-CATIONS IN ANHYDROUS ACETONITRILE, Russian chemical bulletin, 42(3), 1993, pp. 472-477
An improved preparative method for the synthesis of oligo(ethylene gly
col) bis[2-(diphenylphosphinoyl)ethyl] ethers has been developed. The
complex-forming ability of these ligands toward alkali-metal cations h
as been studied by conductometry in anhydrous MeCN at 25-degrees-C. Li
gands of this type have been shown to be highly efficient and selectiv
e complexing agents with respect to the Li+ cation. The stability seri
es of the complexes M+L has the form Li > Na > K > Rb in all cases. Th
e complexing properties and selectivity displayed by these new monopod
ands in MeCN have been compared with those in the THF-CHCl3 (4:1) syst
em studied previously.
