Summary
Stability constants (K MAMAL ) and other thermodynamic parameters of the MAL complexes (charges omitted) [M=CoII, NiII, CuII or ZnII; AH2=8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulphonic acid; LH2=catechol (L1H2), 1,2-dihydroxybenzene-sulphonate (L2H2), 1,2-dihydroxybenzene-3, 5-disulphonate (L3H2), 4-nitro-1,2-dihydroxybenzene (L4H2)] have been determined at 25°C and at an 0.1 M KNO3 ionic strength by the extended Irying-Rossotti technique. The stability constants lie in the sequences:\(K_{ML}^M > K_{MAL}^{MA} ?K_{ML_2 }^{ML} ; K_{MAL}^{MA_1 } > K_{MAL}^{MA_2 } > K_{MAL}^{MA_3 } \gg K_{MAL}^{MA_4 } \) and all follow the Irving-Williams stability order. These observations can be explained in terms of electrostatic interaction, change of electrophilicity of the bound metal and π-acidic character of the primary ligand.
