Abstract
The acid dissociation constants of 4-(2'-thiazolylazo)-resorcinol (TAR) and the formation constants of the metal complexes formed by this reagent with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Mn(II) have been determined potentiometrically at 25° in 50% v/v mixtures of dioxane and water. The values obtained for TAR and the metal complexes are contrasted with similar values for the reagent 4-(2'-pyridylazo)-resorcinol (PAR). Differences and similarities between the co-ordinating tendencies of these two reagents are revealed in terms of the proton displacement constant and the acid dissociation constants of the metal complexes. Evidence is presented which suggests that both TAR and PAR may act as terdentate ligands toward some bivalent metal ions.
