Abstract—The kinetics of the reactions of bromide complexes [[PtenBr2], [Pt(NH3)2Br2], and
[enPtBr2Pten](NO3)2 with AgNO3 are studied potentiometrically. The reactions occur in two stages with dra-
matically different rates. Rate constants are determined for the second stage. The kinetics of the reaction
between the dimeric complex and AgNO3 are studied at 5, 15, 25, and 35°ë. The activation energy is deter-
mined.

This work concerns the kinetics of the reaction
between silver nitrate and platinum(II) complexes,
either monomeric ([PtenBr2] or [Pt(NH3)2Br2]) or
dimeric ([enPtBr2Pten](NO3)2, where en stands for eth-
ylenediamine and m for methylamine), the latter con-
taining two bridging bromine atoms.
The substitution of a water molecule for each inner-
sphere bromide ion Br– adds unity to the charge of the
complex. It was natural to suggest that the reaction of a
complex containing two bromide ions with silver
nitrate would occur in two stages at substantially differ-
ing rates:

= [PtenBrH2O]+ + AgBr↓,
(2) [PtenBrH2O]+ + Ag+ + H2O
[PtenCl2] and trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] were synthesized
according to [1].
The synthesis of the dimeric complex
[enPtBr2Pten](NO3)2 is described in [2].

The Ag+ concentrations in solutions were deter-
mined on an ANION-410 pH meter/conductometer
using a silver ion-selective electrode and an Ag/AgCl
saturated reference electrode. A calibration curve was
plotted as the emf versus Ag+ concentration in standard
solutions (Ò = 1 × 10–2, 1 × 10–3, 1 × 10–4, 1 × 10–5 mol/L).
