Abstract
The system of zirconium (IV) – dl-tartaric acid for metal: ligand 1: 1, 1: 2 and 1: 3 ratios in aqueous solution has been studied by means of using potentiometric titration method in combination with mathematical modeling. The comparison of Bjerrum functions from pH for zirconium(IV) systems: d-tartaric acid and zirconium (IV): dl-tartaric acid, has revealed the following features in the behavior of the curves: the degree of titration for the complexes at a fixed pH value for systems with dl-tartaric acid is more than for d-acid. The CPESSP software complex has calculated the composition, stability constants and molar fractions of zirconium(IV) tartrate accumulation. It has been also found that at a ratio of 1: 1 for Zr (IV) and ligand (H4Tart) ions in the system under study ZrHTart+ is formed, which is tetramerized into Zr4Tart40 and, further, tetranuclear particles of varying degrees of deprotonization are formed, as well as mononuclear forms. In a strongly alkaline pH environment > 10, Bjerrum curves for d- and dl-tartaric acids overlap each other and correspond to hydroxocomplexes of varying degrees of titration. For the 1: 2 ratio, the composition of the complexes for the zirconium(IV) – dl-H4T system is slightly different; compared to the zirconium(IV) – dH4T system, differences are clearly observed for both low and high concentrations. Based on these data, a complex formation scheme in the Zr(IV) – dl-tartaric acid system has been proposed for all the ratios studied. The characteristics of stereoselective diastereomer formation have been calculated. It has been revealed that in the medium of racemic tartrate, ddd- and lll-Zr(H2Tart)2(HTart)3-forms, as well as Zr(H2Tart)(НTart)24-Zr(HTart)35- are formed on a stereoselective basis.
