The stability constants of complexes are determined. It is shown that the interaction of metal ions with polymeric ligands occurs mainly due to electrostatic effects. The interest in the study of the interaction of rare earth elements’ salts (REE) with high-molecular compounds (HMC) are increasing in recent years. These reactions play an important role in the selective transport of metal ions through the membrane, solubilization of inorganic salts in organic solvents, biological enzyme systems, etc. The researches aimed at clarifying the application of interaction products of HMC with the rare earth elements as solid polymer electrolytes in solid-state batteries and accumulators, fuel cells, chemical registration systems, sensors and displays are intensively developed too. Ionic conductors based on polymeric materials have several advantages over existing and currently used by solid electrolytes, such as silver iodide. The action nonmetalocene organometallic derivatives of rare earth metals in the catalysis of unsaturated substrates’ transformations are considered in /1/. Hydride complex of yttrium catalyzes the polymerization of ethylene at 65°C and a pressure 4 atm in deyterobenzole /2,3/. The complexation of REE with 2.2'- dipyridyl is studied by authors V.P. Smagin and others /4/. From practical point of view, choice of rare earth elements as complexing ions due to their original luminescent properties, which appear in the liquid and solid solutions. So investigation of complexing ability of rare earth elements with polyvinyl alcohol in aqueous solutions is actually. pH-metric measurements were performed at pH METER-pH 410 /5/ and the stability constants of complexes of REE are determined by this method (Fig. 1). Thermodynamic parameters were calculated base on the temperature dependence of stability constants of complexes. lgβ 12 Y3+ 11 10 Ce3+ 9 ZrO2+ 8 Rb + 7 Cs+ T, K 6 295 300 305 310 315 320 Fig. The stability constants of rare earth ions’ complexes with PVA under the influence of temperature, I =0 It is established that the in stability constants’ decrease with increasing temperature is characteristic for cerium (III) ions, zirconium ion, rubidium ion, and it is associated with destruction of hydrogen bonds between water molecules and polymer mesh, as well as increasing the hydration’ degree of complex REE with PVA /6/. On the other hand, all the cations are hard Lewis acids according to C.B. Yatsimirskii classification of donors and acceptors, so they predominantly form ionic bonds with ligands. In this case, they are strongly polarized, as they have a noble gas electron configuration, and hence their formed bonds (M n+ O) are more polar and exposed to a greater extent influence of temperature. Also it should be noted that the values of stability constants decrease at 318 K with in cation charge, i.e. symbatically to ionic potential, which for these cations is Mn+ Ce3+>ZrO2+> Rb+. Thus, according to /7/ the tendency to complexes’ formation is reduced in this line. However, the line changed may happen at low temperatures due to the influence of the solvent. It is seen on the example of trivalent yttrium, as well which at 298 K, more susceptible to hydration, and hence forms outer-sphere complexes /6/. At the same time the stability constants increase with increase the rise of temperature for the Y3+ and Cs+ ions; coordination number as CN ion and electron structure play an important role in the formation of the complex. The trivalent yttrium ions have unfilled d-orbitals and also refer to the dcations, so their formed bond have not only ionic but also donor-acceptor character /8/. The cesium ion is the most active among the alkali metals and the most electropositive element, but it is less polarized than the rubidium ion, and it forms sufficiently labile bonds with the oxygen atom of PVA’s hydroxo-group and water molecules. Thus, the immobilization of rare earth cations into the polymer matrix requires high temperatures to reduce the influence of solvent on the complexation process. These results can be used to develop highly efficient catalytic systems based on rare-earth elements, which are used in fine organic synthesis. 1. 2. References Trifonov А.А.
