Abstract

In this work we present results for the speciation of the ternary complexes formed in the aqueous vanadium(III)–dipicolinic acid and the amino acids cysteine (H2cys), histidine (Hhis), aspartic acid (H2asp) and glutamic acid (H2glu) systems (25 °C; 3.0 mol⋅dm−3 KCl as ionic medium), determined by means of potentiometric measurements. The potentiometric data were analyzed with the least-squares program LETAGROP, taking into account the hydrolysis of vanadium(III), the acid-base reactions of the ligands, and the binary complexes formed. Under the experimental conditions (vanadium(III) concentration = 2–3 mmol⋅dm−3 and vanadium(III): dipicolinic acid: amino acid molar ratio 1:1:1, 1:1:2 and 1:2:1), the following species [V(dipic)(H2asp)]+, [V(dipic)(Hasp)], [V(dipic)(asp)]−, [V(dipic)(asp)(OH)]2−, and [V(dipic)(asp)(OH)2]3− were found in the vanadium(III)–dipicolinic acid–aspartic acid system. In the vanadium(III)–dipicolinic acid–glutamic acid system [V(Hdipic)(H2glu)]2+, [V(dipic)(H2glu)]+, [V(dipic)(Hglu)], [V(dipic)(Hglu)(OH)]−, and [V(dipic)(Hglu)(OH)2]2− were observed. In the vanadium(III)–dipicolinic acid–cysteine system the complexes [V(dipic)(H2cys)]+, [V(dipic)(Hcys)], [V(dipic)(cys)]−, and [V(dipic)(cys)(OH)]2− were present. And finally, in the vanadium(III)–dipicolinic acid–histidine system the complexes [V(Hdipic)(Hhis)]2+, \([\mathrm{V}(\mathrm{dipic}) (\mathrm{Hhis})]^{+}\), [V(dipic)(his)], [V(dipic)(his)(OH)]−, and [V(dipic)(his)(OH)2]2− were observed. The stability constants of these complexes were determined. The species distribution diagrams as a function of pH are briefly discussed.
