title: Complexation reactions of pyridinols.
abstract: Complexation of iron(III) with several pyridinols has been studied and used in selective detection and determination (spectrophotometric and chelatometric) of the metal. Iron(III)-pyridinol complexes are also used as indicators in acid-base titrations. A thiol group vicinal to a phenol group in a pyridine molecule provides a reagent that is a suitable ligand for palladium(II) determination. Stability constants of bivalent metal complexes with pyridinols have been determined potentiometrically.
