The solubilities of cesium dianilinetetraisothiocyanatochromate(III) in water as well as in aqueous methanol, isopropyl alcohol, tert-butyl alcohol and acetonitrile were measured as a function of temperature and solvent composition. The Gibbs energies, enthalpies and entropies of transfer of the salt from water to the given solvents have been evaluated from experimental data. The contribution of [Cr(C6H5NH2)2(NCS)4]- ion to the Gibbs energy of transfer of the investigated salt has been calculated using the tetraphenylarsonium tetraphenylborate (TATB) reference electrolyte assumption.

The solubility, partial molar volume and standard integral molar enthalpy of solution of cis- and trans-[CoCl2(en)2]Cl in water, aqueous methanol, aqueous tert-butyl alcohol and aqueous acetonitrile are reported. The transfer functions ∆Gt0, ∆Ht0 and T∆St0 as well as partial molar volumes are used to obtain information on the solute-solvent interactions. Results obtained are discussed in terms of differences in the surface charge distribution in isomeric coordination species.

The rates of cleavage of 14 symmetrically substituted diaryl disulphides by cyanide ion have been measured in 60% aqueous t-butyl alcohol at pH 9.2. A plot of log k against σ� shows that while the reaction rate is accelerated by inductive electron withdrawal from the benzene rings, substituents capable of conjugative interaction are not correlated by their σ� parameters. +R substituents cause reaction to occur much faster than predicted on the basis of their σ� values, while -R substituents react more slowly than predicted. Measurement of rates of cleavage of three series of unsymmetrically substituted disulphides by cyanide or hydroxide shows that these unusual substituent effects arise from substituents in the thiocyanate-forming aryl ring. This behaviour is explained in terms of a change in the electronic behaviour of the thio- cyanate-forming sulphur atom from -I, + R in the disulphide to -I,-R in the rate-determining transition state for the reaction. The study does not show whether the cleavage involves an SN2 process or rapid equilibrium formation of a pentacovalent intermediate.
