Stability constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the 1:1 complexes of iron(III) with phenol and five derivatives in background solutions having two different compositions, 0.027 M NaClO4 and 0 5 M KNO3 Conditional acidity constants for these phenols in the second of these media were also determined The experimental results were treated in two different ways to obtain values of the equilibrium constants and the molar extinction coefficients of the complexes It is apparent that the equilibrium in these cases must be studied under conditions, such as low pH and low concentration of iron, which militate against good precision in the results

Stability constants of the iron(III) complexes of salicylic acid, sulfosalicylic acid, and 4-aminosalicylic acid, together with several of the acidity constants of these, have been determined at 25 °C and in solutions with 0.5 M background electrolyte. For the spectrophotometric measurement of the stability constants improved methods for determining the extinction coefficients of the first and second complexes are described. Protonated species appear only with the aminosalicylate complexes, and the site of this protonation is discussed. Previous values of these equilibrium constants have been collected and critically assessed.

Variations in the spectra of the aqueous solutions of the iron (III) – sodium catechol disulphonate (Tiron) complexes may be interpreted in relation to pH of the solutions to show which complexes are present at any chosen pH. With this knowledge it is possible in this system to evaluate equilibrium constants for the formation of each complex in turn. Combining these with separately determined acidity constants for Tiron, the stability constants of the complexes may be calculated. These have been determined for background solutions of potassium nitrate or sodium perchlorate each at three different concentrations, and for three different ratios of reagent to metal. Averages of a number of determinations made under these conditions are given in Table III of the paper. The constant K1 in perchlorate media shows an unmistakable dependence suggestive of the existence of a protonated species at low pH as well as the simple complex ML. However, there is some ambiguity in the interpretation of the results so that the exact nature of the protonated complex cannot be decided.

Binary complexes of tartaric acid with lanthanide(III) ions were investigated. The studies have been performed in aqueous solution using the potentiometric method with computer analysis of the data for detection of the complexes set, determination of the stability constants of these compounds. The mode of the coordination of complexes found was determined using spectroscopy, which shows: Infrared, circular dichroism, ultraviolet, visible as well as luminescence spectroscopy. The overall stability constants of the complexes as well as the equilibrium constants of the reaction were determined. Analysis of the equilibrium constants of the reactions and spectroscopic data allowed the effectiveness of the carboxyl groups in the process of complex formation.
