Abstract
The dissociation constants of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-{p-[N-(pyrimidin-2-yl)sulfamoyl]phenylazo}-2-pyrazolin-5-one and metal-ligand stability constants of its complexes with some transition metal ions have been determined potentiometrically in 0.1 M-KCl and ethanol—water mixture (30 vol. %). The order of the stability constants of the formed complexes increases in the sequence Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, La3+, Hf3+, UO22+, Zr4+. The effect of temperature was studied and the corresponding thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS) were derived and discussed. The dissociation process is nonspontaneous, endothermic, and entropically unfavourable. The formation of the metal complexes was found to be spontaneous, exothermic, and entropically favourable.
