Abstract
Protonation equilibria of l-glutamine and speciation of its complexes with Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) have been studied pH-metrically in 0–2.5 % v/v triton X-100 solution maintaining an ionic strength of 0.16 mol l−1 at 303 K. The protonation constants and binary stability constants have been calculated with the computer program MINIQUAD75. Best fit chemical models have been selected based on standard deviation in stability constants and residual analysis using crystallographic R-factor and sum of squares of residuals in all mass-balance equations. The trend in the variation of stability constants of the complexes with mole fraction of the medium is attributed to the compartmentalization of complexation equilibria. Distribution of species and effect of influential parameters on chemical speciation have also been presented.
