Summary
Stability constants of binary (ML, ML2) and ternary (MAL) complexes [M=CoII, NiII, CuII or ZnII; A=iminodiacetic acid (ida),N-methyliminodiacetic acid (Me-ida), anthranilatediacetic acid (ada), nitrilotriacetic acid (nta), 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy), orthophenanthroline (o-phen); HL =acetohydroxamic acid] have been determined at 25°C at an ionic strength of 0.1M KNO3 by the Iriving Rossotti technique. In the case of aminopolycarboxylic acids as primary ligands, there is always a lowering of K MAMAL from K MML and K ML2 while in the case of heteroaromaticN-bases as primary ligands, the values of K MAMAL are very close to those of K MML . In the ternary systems studied, the values of K MAMAL are in the sequence, K M(o-phen)M(o-phen) >K M(bipy)M(bipy)L ≫K M(ida)M(ida)L >K M(Me-ida)M(Me-ida)L >K M(nta)M(nta)L >K M(ada)M(ada)L , while in the case of CuII, the values of M M(nta)M(nta)L and K M(ada)M(ada)L are drastically reduced compared to all other primary ligands. For aminopolycarboxylic acids, the sequence of K MAMAL is opposite to those of K MMA and K MMAL though in the sequence of K MMA , K MMAL and K MAMAL for A=ada and nta their relative positions are unaltered. The obtained results are explained in the light of different astatistical factors such as electrostatic effects, steric hindrance, change of effective positive charge on the central metal depending upon the σ-basic and π-acidic character of the primary ligands.
