title: Thermodynamic and spectroscopic studies of copper (II) complexes with three bis(amide) ligands derived from L-tartaric acid.
abstract: The interactions of three bis(amide) ligands derived from tartaric acid with copper (II) were investigated in aqueous solution by a combination of potentiometry, UV-vis spectrophotometry, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and mass spectrometry. The formation constants of the complexes were measured and their relative structures were reported. The sites of complexation of these ligands are investigated based mostly on their electronic and EPR spectra and on the comparison with the behaviour of some analog compounds.
