Abstract
The addition of aqueous pH 7 solutions of 7.2×10-3 M pertechnetate to dilute aqueous 2.5% MeOH solutions containing a water-solubilized sapphyrin, 3,12,13,22-tetraethyl-8,17-bis[bis(hydroxyethyl)-amino)carbonylethyl]-2,7,18,23-tetramethylsapphyrin (1), gives rise to spectroscopic changes in the UV–Vis spectrum of 1 that are consistent with anion-binding and sapphyrin deaggregation. The spectroscopic changes induced by pertechnetate were found to differ dramatically from those induced by the addition of either pure water or dilute nitric acid; however, they were found to parallel those seen when sodium phosphate was added to solutions of 1 under analogous experimental conditions. Fits of the spectroscopic titration data to a 1:1 binding profile revealed that the effective K describing the interaction of pertechnetate anion with 1 was ca. 3900±300 M-1; this value compares to the effective K of 23000±3000 M-1 that describes the corresponding interaction of sodium phosphate with 1.
