An electrochemical technique has been employed to study the ionization of the iodine complexes of (C6H5)3As, (C6H5)3Sb, and pyridine. Several different ionization mechanisms are proposed depending on the chemical nature and concentration of the reactants. A new ionic complex, (C6H5)3MI22+ is postulated for the interaction of iodine with (C6H5)3As and (C6H5)3Sb at high iodine concentrations. Equilibrium constants have been calculated from the emf data for the various ionization steps. Key words: triphenylarsine, triphenylstibine, iodine, complex formation, ionization.

An electrochemical technique has been employed to study the ionization of the iodine complexes of (C6H5)3N and (C6H5)3P. Comparison of the results with a previous study indicates that, at high iodine concentrations, the phosphorus compound behaves like (C6H5)3As and (C6H5)3Sb with the formation of a doubly charged ionic species, (C6H5)3PI22+. The nitrogen compound resembles pyridine in its behavior. Chemical shift data on the (C6H5)3P–I2 system using 31P NMR indicates the presence of additional equilibrium processes.

An electrochemical technique has been employed to study the ionization of the pyridine–iodine complex in pure pyridine and in 1,2-dichloroethane. A mechanism for the ionization in accord with the experimental data is proposed. The results indicate that, for wide ranges of iodine and pyridine concentration, one quarter of the I2 is dissociated into ionic species.

The ir absorption spectra of some pyridine derivatives-iodine complexes were measured in the region 400 to 1400 cm−1 and the results are discussed. The effect of complex formation on the intensities of some of the bands was investigated. The thermodynamic constants of these complexes were calculated. It was found that the stability of the complex depends to a large extent on the electronegativity as well as the position of the substituent on the pyridine nucleus. The structures of formed complexes are discussed.

10 different compounds, including natural and synthetic polypeptides, proteins, polysaccharides, amino acids, and steroid hormones, were assayed for their capacity to form complexes with peritoneal exudate cell RNA. Only molecules carrying negatively charged groups were able to do so. The formation of RNA-antigen complexes was unrelated to the immuno-potency of the "antigen," was not an enzyme-dependent reaction, did not require the synthesis of RNA following introduction of the antigen, did not seem to involve antigen-specific RNAs, was not specific for macrophages, since HeLa cells could be used as effectively, and occurred when purified RNA was mixed with antigen only in the presence of divalent cations. The complexes were very stable, once formed, but could be dissociated by exhaustive dialysis against buffers containing a chelating agent. The macrophage RNA-antigen complex therefore appears to be a chelate between anionic groups on the two components. Based on the total absence of a relationship between immunogenicity and the capacity to form such complexes, as well as the nonspecific nature of complex formation at every level examined, it appears unlikely that RNA-antigen complexes play a physiologically significant role in immune induction.

Spectral changes in symmetry-forbidden phosphorescence spectra observed in the presence of external heavyatom perturbers may have quite different causes depending on the chemical nature of the perturber. This is exemplified using triphenylene as the phosphorescent compound and methyl iodide and silver Perchlorate respectively as the perturber. Intensification of the 0-0 band of the symmetry-forbidden phosphorescence spectrum of triphenylene by silver Perchlorate is assumed to result from symmetry-reduction of the hydrocarbon by ground-state complex formation with silver Perchlorate.

The equilibrium constants for complex formation between the substituted 1-iodoacetylènes 1–8 and the vibrational frequency shifts induced by complex formation are related to the electronic substituent constants. The 13C chemical shifts of the triple bond are also useful structural parameters for predicting the Lewis acidity of iodoalkynes.

Permittivity measurements on solutions of two compounds present in a variable ratio may reveal complex formation: both the equilibrium constant and the dipole moment of the complex can be in principle estimated. However, an incorrect statistical treatment involving transformation of variables is used quite often, for example, in the classical method of Few and Smith. In this case the estimates obtained are usually biased, or loaded with such a great uncertainty that they are practically worthless. The results of numerous papers, even some recent ones, are thus completely at variance with facts. This is shown in this paper by recalculating equilibrium constants and dipole moments of the complex in 17 examples from the literature. Simultaneously, a correct and simple statistical procedure is suggested. The danger of an incorrect and (or) incomplete statistical treatment may be encountered, for the same reason, even in other, quite different, areas.
