Kinetics of complex formation of Fe(III) with syringic acid: Experimental and theoretical study
1Department of Chemistry, School for Physical Sciences, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, (A Central University), 226025, India.
Abstract:
Kinetic study on the complexation of syringic acid with Fe(III) was described in aqueous solution at pH 9.0 together with a reappraisal of spectral evidence for chelate formation. The complexation reaction was found to be a first-order with rate constants for k1 (formation) 3.67 × 10-2 min-1. Additionally, the effect of concentration and temperature on the complexation reaction was investigated. The gustatory properties of the isolated complex were investigated and complex showed no metallic taste. The isolated complex was stable at pH 9.0. The apparent activation energy of the complexation reaction was evaluated to be 168 kcal/mol. The total iron content was determined in the isolated complex by AAS technique and was found 0.0073/100 ml. The specific rotation of the complex was found at -85°.

Ions as Acids and Bases
Salts are ionic compounds composed of cations and anions, either of which may be capable of undergoing an acid or base ionization reaction with water. Aqueous salt solutions, therefore, may be acidic, basic, or neutral, depending on the relative acid-base strengths of the salt’s constituent ions. For example, dissolving the ammonium chloride in water results in its dissociation, as described by the equation:

Lewis Acids and Bases
A coordinate covalent bond (or dative bond) occurs when one of the atoms in the bond provides both bonding electrons. For example, a coordinate covalent bond occurs when a water molecule combines with a hydrogen ion to form a hydronium ion. A coordinate covalent bond also results when...
