Stability constants of some bivalent first row transition metal chelates of dicarboxylic acids containing ether linkages.
The stability constants of the Mn(2+), Fe(2+), Co(2+), Ni(2+), Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) complexes with four acids of the type HOOCCH(2)O(CH(2)CH(2)O)(n) CH(2)COOH (n = 0-3) are reported. For n = 0 the constants are in the Irving-Williams order, but not for n = 1-3.
