Abstract
Two multidentate ligands: N,N′-di-(propionic acid-2′-yl-)-2,9-di-aminomethylphenanthroline (L1) and N,N′-di-(3′-methylbutyric acid-2′-yl-)-2,9-di-amino-methylphenanthroline (L2) were synthesized and fully characterized by 1H NMR and elemental analysis. The binding ability of L1 and L2 to metal ions such as M(II) (M = Cu, Zn, Co and Ni) and Ln(III) (Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Eu, and Gd) has been investigated by potentiometric titration in aqueous solution and 0.1 mol dm−3KNO3 at 25.0 ± °C. In view of the structure of L1 and L2, mononuclear metal complexes can be formed in solution. The stability constants of binary complexes of ligands L1 and L2 with metal ions M(II) and Ln(III) have been determined respectively and further discussed.
