suitable crystals could be prepared, but this has not yet been achieved; the various forms of electronic spectroscopy seem to have the best prospects. It seems unlikely that the various types of kinetic experiments which have been devised will ever really draw such a fine distinction unambiguously. Examination of Figure 3 also suggests that the choice of names, “classical” and “nonclassical”, has given the discussion more impetus than its substance would justify.

Abstract: The structure of the blue-black iodine complex of amylose (the linear, helical component of starch), prepared either from iodine and iodide in aqueous solution or from crystalline amylose and iodine vapor, has been studied by resonance Raman and iodine- 129 Mossbauer spectroscopy. In both cases it is concluded that the identity of the major chromophore is essentially the same: the pentaiodide (IS-) anion. For the material prepared from iodine vapor, the iodide required for 1s- formation is produced by hydrolysis or alcoholysis of iodine. The other product of this reaction, a hypoiodite, has been assigned in the iodine Mossbauer spectrum.

Historically, scientific interest in the interaction of the various fractions of starch with iodine has stemmed from the 0002-7863/80/ 1502-3322$01 .OO/O

or not the chromophore in the material prepared from “V” amylose and I2 vapor is really the same, and, if so, how this comes about. In this contribution we present a full discussion

of our spectral studies of starch-iodine, prepared7 by both aqueous and 12 vapor methods.

A.SOLUTION

Experimental Section Synthesis of Starch-Iodine. Aqueous Solution Method?a Granular potato amylose was purchased from Aldrich Chemical Co. A typical preparation involved the reaction with stirring of 1.8 g of amylose, 0.88 g (3.5 mmol) of triply sublimed 12, and 0.53 g (3.5 mmol) of NaI in 50 mL of deionized water. The resulting blue-black complex, which is formed immediately, was collected by centrifugation and washed with deionized water. Washing was then repeated until no I- could be detected in the water washings when treated with AgNO3 solution. The product was then freeze-dried. Synthesis of Starch-Iodine. Iodine Vapor Methods7Granular potato amylose was crystallized from H2O and I-butanol according to the procedure of Schoch.22In a typical crystallization, 0.50 g of granular amylose was dissolved in 150 mL of boiling deionized water, with constant stirring. To the boiling solution, 10.5 mL of 1-butanol was slowly added, and the solution allowed to cool to room temperature over a period of about 6 h. The “wet” crystalline “V” amylose was collected by suction filtration and washed repeatedly with analytical reagent grade methanol. The remaining methanol was removed by drying in a vacuum desiccator. Iodination was accomplished by placing a vial of the crystalline “V” amylose in a closed vessel in contact with iodine vapor. The characteristic color of the starch-iodine complex developed immediately. A sample prepared in this manner typically contained 5 1 0 % iodine by weight. Synthesis of Starch-Iodine-129. Aqueous Solution Method. The reagent 12912 was prepared by oxidation of an acidified Na1291solution (obtained from Oak Ridge National Laboratory) and subsequent extraction with pentane. The pentane was then evaporated in a stream of prepurified nitrogen to yield solid 12912. For a source of I-, the basic Na1291solution from Oak Ridge was neutralized with H2S04 and used without dilution. The Mossbauer spectroscopy sample of the amylose-iodine complex was prepared by combining 0.7 l g of amylose with 35 mg of 12912and 0.80 mL of the neutralized Na1291solution in 30 mL of deionized water. The product was collected by centrifugation and washed with water, and the same freeze-drying procedure as described above was employed for drying. Synthesis of Starch-Iodine-129. Iodine Vapor Method. The Mossbauer spectroscopy sample of the “V” amylose-iodine complex was prepared using the same procedure as for the unenriched sample (vide supra), except that 12912was used. The reagent 12912was prepared as described above. Raman Measurements. Laser Raman spectra were recorded with Kr+ (6471 A) or Ar+ (4579,4880,4965,5145 A) excitation usinga Spex 1401 monochromator and photon counting detection. The solid samples were studied in 5- or 12-mm Pyrex sample tubes spinning at 1200 rpm. A 180° backscattering geometry was employed. A number of scans were made of each sample (the initial at lowest laser power) to check for possible sample decomposition. Spectra were calibrated with the exciting line (VO) or laser plasma lines. Iodine-129 Mossbauer Spectroscopy. These measurements employed the apparatus described p r e v i o ~ s l y .Absorbers ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~were prepared by thoroughly powdering the iodine- 129 enriched sample and, where necessary, mixing it with an inert filler (boron nitride) to achieve complete filling of the sample container. The absorbers typically contained ca. 7 mg 1291/cm2.Both the source and absorber were cooled to 4.2 K during data collection. Typically, two to three sources were used, in sequence, to collect all the data for a given sample. Data collected from each source were summed to give the final spectra. Individual runs were checked for reproducibility. The spectrometer velocity was generated with a feedback-controlled vibrator using sinusoidal acceleration, and the velocity drive was calibrated with S7Fe foil. Mossbauer effect data processing and analysis employed the computer program GENF1T,23 which finds the best values of the parameters of isomer shift, quadrupole coupling constant, line width, populations, base line, and asymmetry parameter via nonlinear least-squares minimization of the difference between the observed and calculated spectra. Starting spectral parameters were based on literature data,19,24a*34-36 and care was taken to approach optimum fits from several directions so that converging on local minima would be

The goodness of fit is judged by the parameter “Misfit”, which has been previously defined by Ruby.2s The end sites in the pentaiodide ion showed somewhat larger line widths than the other iodine sites. This could be explained if the end sites have a slight distribution of quadrupole coupling constants. That is, not all end sites are exactly equivalent. This nonequivalence was incorporated in the fitting procedure as a velocity-dependent linebroadening function

where is the actual line width, 6 is the isomer shift, V, is the velocity of line n, K is the broadening parameter, and F,, is the observed width of the nth line. This function broadens the lines furthest away from the center of gravity (6, isomer shift) to a greater extent than those lines close to 6. This has the same overall effect as a quadrupole distribution. Using this value of I?,,, reasonable line widths for all sites are obtained.

Results and Discussion The reaction of amylose with iodine and iodide in aqueous solution or the reaction of the “V” form of amylose with iodine vapor gives an intensely blue-black adduct, “starch-iodine”. In investigating the nature of the iodine chromophore in these materials, by resonance Raman and iodine- 129 Mossbauer spectroscopy, we apply the techniques and criteria which we have developed in our solid-state studies of iodine-oxidized mixed valence compounds.24 In this contribution we restrict our discussion to amylose-iodine stoichiometry ranges and preparative methodologies which would be considered typicaL7 Resonance Raman Studies.

The spectra vary only modestly with exciting laser frequency ( v g 5145-4579 A) as illustrated in Figure 3. In an effort to determine whether any structural changes in the samples might have occurred upon drying, freshly prepared solid samples were subjected to high vacuum ( Torr) for various periods of time. There was no observable change in Raman spectra over the course of several hours. Indeed, even at temperatures as high as 70 “ C , only slight changes in the spectrum could be discerned in the course of 1 h (Figure 4),i.e., a slight relative

Interestingly, aqueous suspensions of starch-iodine are decolorized by heating to temperatures greater than 60 oC,26 The resonance Raman spectra of both starch-iodine samples (Figures 2 and 3) exhibit strong scattering a t 163 cm-l and considerably weaker transitions a t 109 and 56 cm-'. In addition, overtone bands are assigned at 322 (2 X 163) and 215 (2 X 109) cm-I. A combination band which is assigned at 272 (163 109) cm-l is assurance that the 163- and 109-cm-l fundamental transitions are not in separate lattices (Le., due to different compounds). In interpreting the starch-iodine

spectra, reference is made to model compounds of established structurs which are relevant to the differentiation of species B-E, as well as other possibilities. The spectra of most polyiodides can be understood by recognizing that 12 acts as a Lewis acid and that coordination to electron donors (Le., I-) results in popu,ation of molecular orbitals with 1-1 antibonding character, hence an increase in 1-1 bond length and a decrease in bond order and stretching force constant are o b ~ e r v e d . ~ ~ . ~ ~ The spectra and structures of most complex polyiodides can be understood in terms of aggregates of the simpler subunits 12, 13-, and I-.24,28 Figure 5 compares the resonance Raman spectrum of starch-iodine to spectra of various model compounds.
