<meta content="N-Substituted pyrazoles (L) form complexes [MeHgL]NO, for which 2J(1H-199Hg) decreases with increasing basicity of L in a very similar manner to that observed for closely related N-substituted imidazole complexes. The relationships differ from that for complexes of pyridines and suggest that for ligands of similar log KH (pKa of LH+ in 50% dioxane-water) the N-substituted imidazoles and pyrazoles are better sigma donors toward MeHg(II) than pyridines. The complexes [MeHgL]NO3 [L = N-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole and bis(N-pyrazoly1)methane] have the ligands chelated to MeHg(II) when in methanol." name="eprints.abstract" />

The relationships differ from that for complexes of pyridines and suggest that for ligands of similar log KH (pKa of LH+ in 50% dioxane-water) the N-substituted imidazoles and pyrazoles are better sigma donors toward MeHg(II) than pyridines. The complexes [MeHgL]NO3 [L = N-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole and bis(N-pyrazoly1)methane] have the ligands chelated to MeHg(II) when in methanol.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/250200.html">250000 Chemical Sciences > 250200 Inorganic Chemistry</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">2866</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Prof Allan J Canty</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">15 Jan 2008 11:40</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">15 Jan 2008 11:40</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=2866;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&eprintid=2866">item control page</a></p>
