Popis: The complexes (Cr/sup III/(L)(O-O))/sup n/ (L = nitrilotriacetate (nta), N,N-..beta..-alaninediacetate (..beta..-alada); O-O = malonate (mal), oxalate (ox), acetylacetonate (acac), 2H/sub 2/O) have been synthesized, chromatographically purified, and characterized by deuteron NMR, infrared and electronic absorption spectroscopy. The two possible isomers, symmetrical (sym) and unsymmetrical (unsym), for (Cr(..beta..-alada)(acac))/sup -/ and (Cr(..beta..-alada)(mal))/sup 2 -/ were isolated, but only the unsym isomer for (Cr(..beta..-alada)(ox))/sup 2 -/ was found. The starting materials for the synthesis of these complexes, (Cr(nta)(OH))/sub 2//sup 2 -/ and unsym-(Cr(..beta..-alada)(H/sub 2/O)/sub 2/), were also characterized. Both species were shown to be in equilibrium with the corresponding monomer and dimer, respectively. The chemistry of the various species investigated differs, to some extent, from what has been previously reported. The recent availability of a readily applicable NMR technique for the study of Cr(III) chemistry (/sup 2/H NMR) has greatly facilitated these studies.
