Stepwise mixed ligand complex formation is observed in the systems containing metal ion, iminodiacetic acid (IMDA) as primary ligand and one of the diamines, such as ethylenediamine (en), 1,2-propanediamine (1,2-pn) and 1,3-propanediamine (1,3-pn) as secondary ligands. Potentionmetric titrations indicate the formation of ternary complexes having a 1:1:1 molar ratio of metal ion to iminodiacetic acid to the secondary ligand. Initially, metal-IMDA (1:1) complex is formed in the lower buffer region prior to the formation of the ternary complex and the addition of the secondary ligand takes place only after the combination with the primary ligand is complete. Formation constants (log KMAB) of the ternary complexes have been calculated and the probable reaction mechanism is suggested. The order of stability in terms of metal ion has been found to be Cu (II) > Ni (II) >Zn (II) >Cd (II) and in terms of secondary ligand as 1,2-pn>en>1,3-pn.
