Metal chelates of phosphonate-containing ligands-II: stability constants of some beta-styrylphosphonic acid metal chelates.
The synthesis and properties of beta-styrylphosphonic acid (SPA) are reported. The values of the protonation constants of the ligand were determined potentiometrically at different ionic strengths and in the temperature range 0-65 degrees. The enthalpy and entropy of protonation have been calculated by using the van't Hoff isochore. The protonation process is endothermic and is stabilized by a relatively large positive entropy change. The stability constants of the complexes formed between SPA and the bivalent Mg, Ca, Ba, Co, Ni and Pd ions at 25 degrees and ionic strength of 0.12M KNO(3) were also determined. All measurements were carried out in 18% dimethylformamide-water mixture.
