title: Comparative studies on the iron chelators O-TRENSOX and TRENCAMS: selectivity of the complexation towards other biologically relevant metal ions and Al(3+).
abstract: Complexation constants have been determined by potentiometric titration and spectrophotometric measurements for several biologically relevant divalent metals (Ca(2+), Cu(2+), Zn(2+)) as well as Al(3+) with the sulfonated tris(8-hydroxyquinolinate) tripodal ligand O-TRENSOX. The values demonstrate great selectivity of O-TRENSOX for Fe(3+) according to the sequence Fe(3+) >>Cu(2+)>Zn(2+)>Ca(2+). This selectivity is compared to that shown by tris(hydroxamate) and tris(catecholate) ligands. (1)H NMR spectroscopy of the diamagnetic complexes have been carried out in (2)H(2)O solutions.
