  1. CH# 17 Coordination Chemistry

  2. Transition Metals • Transition metals show similarities within a period and a group, different than representative elements • Differences can be attributed to the fact that when electrons are added across a period the valence electrons are not effected. • Therefore group designations are not important here • Behave as metals, strong metallic character

  3. Transition Metals • Some differences • Melting point, Tungsten melts 3400°, while mercury -39°C • Some soft, like sodium that can be cut with a butter knife • Reactivity • Some spontaneously react with oxygen like iron, which flakes off • Others react with oxygen to make a colorless tight fitting oxide, such as chromium, thus protecting the surface • Some metals are inert to oxygen such as gold, silver and platinum

  4. Transition Metals Ionic compound formation • More than one oxidation state is often observed • Cations, often are complexes, which we will discuss later in this chapter • Most compounds are colored, since complexes absorb visible light • Many compounds are paramagnetic This chapter will deal specifically the first row transition elements

  5. Transition Elements

  6. Electron Configurations Exceptions to the AUFBAU principle • Cr prefers a half full d as opposed to a full 4s, thus 4s13d5 • Copper prefers a full 3d as opposed to a full 4s, thus 4s13d10 • This half filled, or filled d orbital, is used most of the time to explain this, but other transition metals do not follow this trend.

  7. Electron Configurations Many texts explain AUFBAU exceptions of chromium and copper as a half full sublevel are more stable than a full 4 s sublevel, or for copper that a full d-sublevel is more stable than a half full 4s • Why is this not the case in periods below? • The 4 s and the 3 d orbitals are of about the same energy or nearly degenerate. Perhaps there is a larger repulsive force in the 4s than in 3d orbitals. • I do not think any one knows, but it is good to think and create right?

  8. Electron Configurations 4d and 5d Transition Series • See the size relation on next slide • Decrease in size as we go from left to right, stopping when the d is half full • Significant drop in size going from 3d to 4d, but 4d and 5d remain about the same size • Called Lanthanide contraction • Adding f electrons below the d and the valence shell shel electrons (shielding) • Thus the effect of the increasing size by adding another shell of electrons, which is normally in transition and representative elements, is offset by the shielding of the added f electrons

  9. Transition Element Sizes

  10. Oxidation States and IE • See common oxidation states on Next slide • The maximum oxidation state for each transition element going across the row is what we would get by losing both 4s and 3d electrons, toward the end only 2+ is observed, the explanation is that as the effective charge increases thus holding the d electrons tighter. • Reducing ability, decreases from left to right

  11. Transition Metal Oxidations #’s

  12. Ionization Energies Red dot- First ionization energy (removing 4s e) Bluedot-third ionization energy removing 3d electron, closer to nucleus, thus more tightly held

  13. First-row Transition Metals Scandium • Rare element most always +3 oxidation state, ie ScCl3, Sc2O3 • Chemistry of scandium resembles the lanthanides • Colorless compounds • Diamagnetic • Color and magnetic properties are due to d electron, Sc has no d electrons

  14. First-row Transition Metals Titanium • Found in the earths crust (0.6%) • Low density and high strength • Fairly inert, and is used in pipes • TiO2 is a very common white pigment • Common oxidation state is +4

  15. First-row Transition Metals Vanadium • Found in the earth’s crust about 0.02% • Common oxidation state is +5 • Since vanadium contains d electrons solutions are colored • VO2+ is yellow with V in the +5 oxidation state • VO2+ is blue with V in the +4 oxidation state • V3+ is blue-green with V in +3 oxidation state • V2+ is violet with V in +2 oxidation state

  16. First-row Transition Metals Chromium • Rare, but important industrial chemical • Chromium oxide is colorless, tuff, and holds to the metal strongly, almost invisible • Chromium compounds in solution are also colored since they contain d electrons • Common oxidation states are +2, +3 and +6 • Chromium VI is an excellent oxidizing agent! Why? • Strength increases as acidity increases • Chromerge very good glassware cleaning agent • What would we predict for Cr metal? • Cr6+ in the form of dichromate ion usually reduces to the +3 state

  17. First-row Transition Metals • Iron • Is the most abundant heavy metal (4.7%) in earth’s crust, Why? • Common oxidation states +2 and +3 • Iron solutions are colored since they contain d electrons • Cobalt • Relatively rare • Hard bluish-white metal • Common oxidation states are +2 and +3 • Oxidation states +1 and +4 are also known • Typical color is rose color

  18. First-row Transition Metals • Nickel • Most always the +2 oxidation state • Sometimes +3 oxidation state • Emerald green colored solutions

  19. First-row Transition Metals • Copper • Quite common, as sulfides, arsenides, chlorides and carbonates • Great electrical conductor second only to silver • Widely used in plumbing • Found in bronze and brass • Not highly reactive will not reduce H+ • Slowly oxides in air, producing a green oxide • Common oxidation state +2, +1 is also known • Aqueous solution are bright Royal blue • Quite toxic, used to kill bacteria • Paint often contains copper so algae do not grow on the paint

  20. First-row Transition Metals Zinc • Quite common in earths crust, usually as ZnS • Great reducing agent, quite reactive • Oxidation state of +2 • Used to galvanize steel

  21. Coordination compounds • Transition metals form coordination compounds • Transition metals contain a complex ion attached to ligands via coordinate covalent bonds • Coordination compounds are usually colored and paramagnetic

  22. Coordination compounds • Complex ions, usually inside [ ] • Transition coordinately bonded to Lewis bases, the metal is acting as a Lewis acid • Example [CoCl(NH3)5]2+ this cation can combine with anions to balance the charge, thus forming a salt • Ligands are the groups of atoms bonded with a coordinate covalent bond to a transition metal, or a transition metal ion.

  25. Coordinate Covalent Bonding

  26. Coordinate Covalent Bonding

  27. Coordination compounds • Alfred Werner was the father of coordination chemistry • Alfred Werner called the salt formation the primary valence • The secondary valence is the formation of the complex ion itself • The compound above has a secondary valence of 6, since it combines with 6 ligands • The primary valence is +2 since that is what needs to be neutralized with anions. • Now days the secondary valence is called the coordination number and the primary valence is called the oxidation state

  28. Aqueous Solutions of Metal Ions

  29. Coordination Compounds • The number of coordinate covalent bonds formed by the metal ion and the ligands • Variance of 2-8, with 6 being most common. • Geometrical Shape • Ligands = 2, then linear • Rare for most metals • Common for d-10 systems (Cu+, Ag+, Au+, Hg2+) • Ligands = 3, Trigonal planar • Rare for most metals • Is known for d-10 systems (example HgI3‑)

  30. Coordination Compounds • Geometrical Shape • Ligands = 4, then tetrahedral, or square planar • Tetrahedral structure is observed for nontransition metals, BeF42- and d-10 inons such as ZnCl42-, FeCl4-, FeCl42- • Square planar is found with second and third row transition metals with d-8 Rh+, Pd2+ -Ligands = 5 • trigonalbipyramid • square pyramidal

  31. Coordination compounds • Geometrical Shape • Ligands = 6, then octahedral and prismatic (rare) • Ligands = 7 Relatively uncommon, pentagonal • Second and third row transition metals, lanthanides , and actinides • Lignads = 8, relatively common for larger metal ions, common geometry antiprism and dodecahedron • Lignads = 9 larger metal ions, geometry tricappedtrigonal prism [Nd(H2O)9]3+

  32. The Ligand Arrangements for Coordination Numbers 2, 4, and 6

  33. Ligands • Atoms attached to a transition metal via coordinate covalent bonds • They are Lewis bases, since they donate a pair of electrons to the transition metal. • Ligands are classified relative to how many attachments to the metal • Monodentate forms one bond to a transition metal • Lignads forming more than bond are called chelating ligands, or chelates

  34. Ligands • Ligands are classified relative to how many attachments to the metal • Bidentate, a chelating agent, forms two bonds, examples: • Oxalate • Ethylenediamine • Polydentate forms more than two bonds. • Diethylenetriamine • Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid

  35. Ligands • EDTA is used to remove lead from animals • More complicated ligands are found in biological compounds • EDTA is used as a preservative to tie up substances that could catalyze decomposition of food products
