Summary
The kinetics of the dissociation of [Cu([18]aneN49)]2+ and [Ni([17]aneN48)]2+ in acidic solution have been studied in detail. The dissociation of [Cu([18]aneN48)]2+ displays saturation kinetics beyond 0.4 mol dm−3 HC1O4 with values of kobs becoming independent of [HClO4]. The kinetic behaviour can be rationalised in terms of the scheme,
with K = 64 dm3mol−1 and k=0.625 s−1 at 25 °C. Saturation kinetics are not observed in the dissociation of [Ni([17]aneN48)]2+ and significant amounts of the protonated complex do not occur even in 0.5 mol dm−3 HClO4. In this case protonation of the complex may be the rate-determining step. Dissociation of [Ni([17]aneN48)]2+ is 1010-fold faster than that of [Ni(cyclam)]2+ at 25 °C.
