Abstract
Isomers of 1-hydroxy-2-pyridinone-6-carboxylic acid (6-carboxy-1,2-HOPO), their deprotonated species and complexes with chromium and zinc were theoretically investigated by density functional theory calculations. Free energy of activation, energetics, thermodynamic properties and equilibrium constants of interconversion reactions of their isomers were determined. Measured acid-dissociation constants of the 6-carboxy-1,2-HOPO obtained from potentiometric titration method were compared with the computed constants which were derived from the density functional theory method. Two isomers of each 6-carboxy-1,2-HOPO complexes with chromium and with zinc were found.
