title: Metal chelates of phosphonate-containing ligands-IV (Stability of some 1,6-hexamethylenediamine-N,N,N',N'-tetra(methylenephosphonic) acid metal chelates).
abstract: The stability constants of the complexes formed between the anion of 1,6-hexamethylenediamine-N,N,N',N'-tetra(methylenephosphonic) acid and some transition and non-transition metal ions have been measured potentiometrically at a temperature of 25 degrees and an ionic strength of 0.1M (KNO(3)). The acid dissociation constants of the ligand and stability constants of the protonated complexes are also reported. Comparisons are made with the acid dissociation constants of the analogous compounds EDTA, ENTMP and HDTA, and possible structural formulae are given.
