PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF SOME HYDROCARBON SOLUBLE CERIUM AND IRON COMPOUNDS
Abstract
Metathesis between sodium p-toluate and ceric ammonium nitrate yields benzene-soluble basic ceric toluates. The basic ceric toluates Ce(Tol) (OH)O and Ce(Tol)1.5(OH)1.5(O)0.5, demonstrably low in toluic acid, have been isolated. Both react with disalicylalpropylenediamine (H2DSPD) to form water, toluic acid, and bis(N,N'disalicylalpropylenediamine) cerium (IV), (Ce(DSPD)2). Ceric isopropoxide solvate is dimeric and infinitely soluble in benzene. The isopropoxide reacts with toluic acid to give isopropyl alcohol and ceric toluate which is sparingly soluble in benzene. Reactions of either the isopropoxide or normal soap with excess H2DSPD afford an anhydrous route to Ce(DSPD)2. The DSPD complexes of both Ce(IV) and Fe(III) are effective catalysts for luminescence in the perioxide oxidation of luminol. (Author)
