The constants as a functionof composition of the complexation solutions were obtained by two graphical approaches respectively Theformation constants decreased with increasing concentration of metal in the solution. The results provideunambiguous evidence for the heterogeneity of the function groups of humic substances. The formationconstants of FA were much smaller than those of HA, and the formation constants of Cu￣(2+) were muchgreater than those of Co￣(2+) , Ni￣(2+) and Zn￣(2+) .

Stability constants were calculated from pH-metric data using the SUPERQUAD computer program and cyclic voltammograms were collected, stored and manipulated using the E G and G CONDECON 300 software. A consider- ably larger ligand: metal ratio (e.g. 50:1) was possible using voltammetry. Under these conditions, hydroxy complex formation was minimised and the formation of bis-complexes optimised. Computer based calculations were carried out on PC-compatible microcomputers fitted with mathematics co- processors. Evaluation of results from the two techniques suggests that stability constants for the species [PbL_2] are reliable when calculated from voltammetry while those for [PbL] are mote reliable when determined by pH-metric titration.展开更多

The formation rate constants, k_f(M^(-1).s^(-1)), for the complexation reaction, CuA + LCuAL, are as follows; X=NO_2, 8.68×10~8; X=Cl, 7.13×10~8; X=H, 6.12×10~8; X=CH_3, 5.42×10~8. The rate constants for zwitterion attack are nil within experimental error. It has been found that a linear free energy relationship exists between the stability(logK_(CuAL)^(CuA) of the complexes CuAL and log kf as follows: IogK_(CuAL)^(CuA)=0.13 + 0.83 logk_f, r=0.99. It suggested that the formation rate governed the stability of the ternary complexes. The rates of formation of the ternary complexes increased with decreasing electron-donating property of the substituents. A linear relationship was found to exist as expressed by the following equation: log(k_f^R/k_F^O) = 0.097σ, r=0.96. A mechanism involves a rapid equilibrium between CuA and L followed by a slow ring closure of L.展开更多
