Abstract
The interactions of the title ligand (bctn) with copper(II) in aqueous solution have been investigated by potentiometric and spectrophotometric techniques. The two protonation constants of the ligand at 25 °C and 0.2 mol dm–3 Na[NO3] are 109.29 and 107.06 dm3 mol–1. Quantitative equilibrium studies of the stepwise reactions which precede the formation of [Cu(bctn)]2+ and the Cu–O to Cu–N bond rearrangements at the two amide sites are described in detail. Electronic spectra of the copper(II) chelates formed have been recorded and are discussed.Keywords
