Spectroscopic Determination of Metal-Ligand Coordination by Biologically Active 2-Picolinehydroxamic Acid with
Abstract:
The complexing properties of 2-picolinehydroxamic acid towards iron(III) as well as oxidovanadium(IV) were characterized in aqueous solutions by the UV-Vis spectrophotometric method. The speciation models have been confirmed and even extended by electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) studies. For both systems, mononuclear complexes were formed below a pH of 1 and coordination by O,O- chelation mode leading to the formation of five-membered rings was confirmed. The overall stability constant values were determined and compared with other similar systems, indicating more effective binding of the ligand by Fe(III) than VO(IV). The acidic medium of the reaction in the VO(IV) - 2-picolinehydroxamic acid system prevented the oxidation of VO(IV) to V(V). 2-Picolinehydroxamic acid was chosen because of its previously evidenced biological properties. As a result of acidification, reversible dissociation of the complexes in both systems was observed, indicating the action of 2-picolinehydroxamic acid as a potential siderophore.

In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
