The composition, stability and the quantity of accumulation of citrate titanium (IV) in aqueous solution were calculated. It was found that for the equimolar ratio of the reactants di-, tri- and tetranuclear particles is formed, while for excess of ligand mononuclear complex forms [Ti(H4-nCit)3]4-3n (n = 2-4) at pH ≤ 8 and [Ti(OH)2(Cit)2]6- at pH ≥ 8 are dominated. Introduction The titanium (IV) complexes play an important role in practice of analytical and inorganic chemistry, biochemistry and geochemistry. Although traditionally titanium is regarded as an immobile element of Earth’s crust, now there is an information [1], suggesting that the solubility of its compounds may be higher than previously thought. Apparently, a considerable role is played by the interaction of titanium with polyfunctional chelating ligands. It follows that formation complexes processes of the titanium(IV) with α-hydroxyacids, particularly citric acid, require a thorough study. In modern literature the question about that titanium - a biologically active element whose influence on people increases is widely discussed. [1-4]. Therefore, due to the prevalence of titanium in the environment and its nonunique biological activity the value of information on the structure and stability of its coordination compounds, as well as equilibria in aqueous solutions containing ions of titanium has increased to date. (IV). Although the importance of the study of the complexation of titanium (IV) with citric acid emphasized repeatedly, the above complexes remain poorly understood-governmental. Despite the considerable amount of work done in this area, information about the hydroxyacid complexes of titanium (IV), cited in the literature are sketchy and mainly concerning the synthesis of citrate crystals of titanium (IV) from solutions [2-10]. Experimental Section Complexation in the titanium (IV) - citric acid was studied by potentiometric titration method in combination with the mathematical modeling. We investigated the following reagents ratios - 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 and 2:3. To identify complex forms concentration the range 0.0013-0.02 mole/l of metal was studied. We used "pure for analysis" qualification titanium(IV) chloride and citric acid. All working solutions are prepared with twice distilled water. An aliquot of the pure titanium chloride(IV) was added dropwise with stirring to a solution of citric acid. This technique allows us to do it without additional acidification of the system. Potentiometric measurements were carried out at a pH-meter pH-150M to 0.01 units. pH. The temperature of the working solution was maintained at 25 ± 0.1 ° C. Because of the fact that for the equilibration in the system- Ti(IV)-α-hydroxyacid takes time the titration of the prepared solutions was carried out every other day. Results and Discussion Fig. 1-2 shows the experimentally obtained curves describing the Berrum’s function dependence of pH for titanium(IV) - citric acid system in a ratios of metal to ligand 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 2:3. For all four ratios there is a general pattern in the curves. First, there is a sharp increase in Berrum’s function to the inflection point at pH 6.5 and the curve changes after bending. In the case of 1:2 and 1:3 ratios the curve flattens out. On these curves we can highlight a range in which the function of formation varies slightly (pH 7-9). The presence of ñ constant arias can be explained by the formation of stable complex forms. The curve on the plateau is not observed for the ratios of 1:1 and 2:3 after the inversion point. The Berrum’s function with pH continues to increase, but the rise curve becomes flatter. Since these dependencies experimental points do not lie on a one curve, it must be assumed that in the Ti4+-citric acid system at a ratio of metal: ligand close to equimolar, the formation of polynuclear complex may be formed. Some authors interpret the experimental curves from the standpoint of existence of a simple model that includes only the mononuclear complexes, both for systems with an equimolar ratio of Ti (IV) - citrate, and for cases where the ligand is taken with an excess of 2-4 fold. [11]. Therefore, they offered the same schemes of equilibrium in citric acid solution containing ions of titanium(IV) [2, 3, 6]. It should be emphasized that the information about the constants of formation titanium(IV) citrate complexes does not provide in the literature, with the exception of work. [11]. Data given in the literature describe the behavior Ti4+-H4Cit at a sufficiently high concentration of the components (0.01-0.04 mol/l), the same data for more dilute solutions are absent. We have studied the system TiCl4-H4Cit by potentiometric titration over a wide pH range 1.10-10.5. The complexation of titanium (IV) with citric acid was studied in essentially zero ionic strength. It minimized the effect of the supporting electrolyte on the complex particles formation in the studied system. For the simulation of the equilibrium in the titanium(IV) - citric acid the program «Chemical Parameters of equilibria in solutions with solid phases» (CPESSP) was used [12]. In drawing up the stoichiometry matrix we used the values of the titanium(IV) hydrolysis constants according to P. Comba [13] and L. Ciavatta data [14]. If the complexation reactions in solutions containing particles of H+, Ti4+, H4Cit are presented in the form of formal equations [Ti p H 4 q r Citq ]4 p r rH pTi 4 qH 4Cit then complexation equilibrium constants can be calculated by the equation: pqr [Ti p H 4q -r Citq4p -r ][ H ]r [Ti 4 ] p [ H 4Cit ]q 8 8 7 7 6 6 5 5 n 4 n 4 BTi=0,02M, BTi=0,0211M BTi=0,0013M, BTi=0,00137M 3 BTi=0,01M, BTi=0,01055M BTi=0,0013M, BTi=0,0042M BTi=0,0026M, BTi=0,0027M 3 BTi=0,02M, BTi=0,0628M BTi=0,01M, BTi=0,0314M BTi=0,01M, BTi=0,02105M 2 BTi=0,0013M, BTi=0,0027M BTi=0,0026M, BTi=0,0082M 2 BTi=0,0026M, BTi=0,0055M BTi=0,02M, BTi=0,0421M BTi=0,01M, BTi=0,0157M BTi=0,0013M, BTi=0,0020M 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 BTi=0,02M, BTi=0,0314M 1 BTi=0,0026M, BTi=0,0041M 10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 pH pH Fig. 1.

Dependence of Berrum function of pH in TiCl4 – citric acid system in a ratio of reagents 1:1-1:3 (ВTi – 0.0026М и 0.02М) Calculation Berrum’s function was performed with using the following equation: 10 n~ pH (Valiq V NaOH ) (c NaOH V NaOH ) 10 pH 14 (Valiq V NaOH ) c H 4Cit Valiq The models of complex formation at equimolar ratio cited in the literature do not give an adequate description of the experiment. It is assumed that the 1:1 ratio is typical only for acidic pH range [11, 15], whereas the broad region of pH values are undescribed (pH> 6). However, based on data on the interaction of the ions of elements of groups III-IV with hydroxy-acids, the formation of polynuclear complex forms also may be assumed in this case [1620]. To improve the convergence of the experimental data with the results of mathematical modeling in the matrix of stoichiometric we were introduced the complexes with a higher degree of nucleation. The mathematical modeling of the equilibrium composition at an equimolar ratio showed that the titanium (IV) - citric acid is formed a series of complexes of the 1:1, 2:2, 3:3, 4:4 Ti: citrate ratio. Complex speciation in the system starts with form [TiHCit]+, dominated in the highly acidic region (pH <1.5): [TiHCit ] 3H H 4Cit Ti 4 Further interconversions of pH 1.5-2.5 can be represented as follows: dimerization 2[TiCit ]0 [Ti2OHCit2 ] 2[TiHCit ] 2 H H The hydroxyform [Ti2OH(Cit)2]- is polymerized while the pH is growth, and in an acidic aria (pH=2.5-6.5) trimers describe equilibrium better then monomers: trimerization 2[Ti3 (OH ) 4 Cit3 ]4 3[Ti2OHCit2 ] 2[Ti3 (OH )3 Cit3 ]3 3 H 2 H 2 H 2[Ti3 (OH )5 Cit3 ]5 2[Ti3 (OH )6 Cit3 ]6 2 H 2 H Complex species nuclearity increases in the alkaline range of pH. According to the simulation the accumulation proportion of complex 4:4:26 ([Ti4(OH)10(Cit)4]10-) began to increase at pH 6.5. Then this complex becomes in more deprotonated species, and alkaline region at a pH of 7-9.5 dominance of tetramer of complexes is observed: tetramerization 3[Ti4 (OH )10 Cit4 ]10 3[Ti4 (OH )11 Cit4 ]11 4[Ti3 (OH )6 Cit3 ]6 6 H 3 H 3 H 3[Ti4 (OH )12 Cit4 ]12 3 H Thus, our scheme of complex formation is consistent with the titanium(IV) ions marked a tendency to exist in solution in the form of particles of different degree of nuclearity [21]. The decreasing nuclearity in the strongly alkaline range can be attributed to the destruction of complex shapes and forming titanium(IV) hydroxoсomplex [Ti(OH)4(Cit)]4-: 4[Ti3 (OH )10 Cit3 ]10 12[Ti(OH )4 Cit ]4 3[Ti4 (OH )12 Cit4 ]12 6 H 3 H Modeling of equilibria in the presence of excess ligand we started with a simple scheme, compiled from the literature data [2, 3, 5, 8, 12]. It should be noted that such complex formation scheme is generally true, however, contained information in the literature mainly deals with acidic pH, while the alkaline region of pH> 8.0 remains poorly understood. According to [11] the 1:3 complexes - [Ti(H2Cit)3]2-, [Ti(H2Cit)(HCit)2]4-, [Ti(HCit)2(Cit)]6-, [Ti(Cit)3]8- are the most common for the titanium (IV) - citric acid system in excess of the ligand. At the same time, in the literature there is no consensus on the question of the existence of forms with different metal: ligand ratios. The hydroxoform of 1:2 [Ti(Cit)2(OH)2]6 was found in the alkaline - range [11]. This fact agrees with the data of the authors [2, 3] that the complexed ligands fraction gradually decreases with the growth of the pH. Deng et al. [3] based on the NMR data suggest that there might be different titanium(IV) citrates in solutions even in the case where the pH of the system is much higher than 7.0. Complexation Ti4+ with citric acid in aqueous solution with an excess of ligand can be described a relatively simple model: [TiCit ]0 [Ti ( H 2Cit )3 ]2 [Ti ( H 2Cit ) 2 ( HCit )]3 [TiHCit ] H 2 H 4Cit , H H H [Ti ( H 2Cit )( HCit ) 2 ]4 [Ti ( HCit )3 ]5 [Ti ( HCit ) 2 Cit ]6 H H H H [TiHCit (Cit ) 2 ]7 [Ti (Cit )3 ]8 [Ti(OH ) 2 (Cit ) 2 ]6 H H H , Cit 4 The fact of the formation of the 1:1 complex but not 1:3 at first attracts attention. The inclusion complexes of 1:3:4 and 1:3:5 aggravate the consistency of the simulation and leads to a discrepancy between theoretically calculated and experimental curves, so 1:3:4 and 1:3:5 forms were removed from the stoichiometric matrix. The main stages of mathematical modeling are presented in Table. 1-3. We proposed scheme including the 1:1, 2:2, 3:3, 4:4, and 1:3 complexes for the ratios of metal: ligand 1:2 and 2:3. Mathematical treatment of the results of potentiometric titration showed that the shape of 1:2 except hydroxocomplexes [Ti(Cit)2(OH)2]6-) have no effect on the value of the criterion of Fmin. It is significant that the 2:3 ratio for the low concentration of metal and the ligand the equimolar forms are dominated in solution, whereas the proportion of particles [Ti(HCit)2(Cit)]6-, [Ti(Cit)3]8-, [Ti(Cit)2(OH)2]6- begins to increase with the concentrations growths of the reactants in the system. The model №7 best of all corresponds the experimental data. The deviation of the experimental values of the formation function of the theoretically calculated values of this parameter does not exceed 2%. Comparison of experimental and theoretical curves for the metal: ligand 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 ratios is shown in Fig. 3 (BTi = 0.0026 mol/l).
