1. The mechanism of inhibition of enzymes by metal ion-chelating reagents is discussed and equations derived. 2. Two distinct mechanisms are postulated and graphical methods are given for differentiating between them. 3. Where the metal ion is actually removed from the enzyme to form a co-ordination complex in solution, a procedure is described for obtaining the stability constant for metal–enzyme interaction, the number of metal ions involved and the stoicheiometry of metal ion–ligand interaction.

AbstractThree azocalix[4]arenes with distal ethyl ester residues, 5-phenylazo-25,26,27-tris[(ethoxycarbonyl)methoxy]-28-hydroxycalix[4]arene (2), 5-(o-methylphenyl)azo-25,26,27-tris[(ethoxycarbonyl)methoxy]-28-hydroxycalix[4]arene (3), 5-(p-Methylphenyl)azo-25,26,27-tris[(ethoxycarbonyl)methoxy]-28-hydroxycalix[4]arene (4), were synthesized and their binding properties with metal ions were investigated by ultraviolet (UV)/visible spectroscopy. The chromogenic behavior of these compounds upon metal ion complexation indicates a specific selectivity toward Ca2+ ion in the presence of other cations tested. The stoichiometry of 3 to Ca2+ ion in the complex is 1:1 and the stability constant of the complex is 1.28×104m−1.

Abstract An understanding of Al3+-induced diseases requires identification of the blood carrier of Al3+ to the tissues where Al3+ exerts a toxic action. Quantitative studies demonstrate that the protein transferrin (iron-free) is the strongest Al3+ binder in blood plasma. Under plasma conditions of pH 7.4 and [HCO3-]27 mmol/L, the successive stability constant values for Al3+ binding to transferrin are log K1 = 12.9 and log K2 = 12.3. When the concentration of total Al3+ in plasma is 1 mumol/L, the free Al3+ concentration permitted by transferrin is 10(-14.6) mol/L, less than that allowed by insoluble Al(OH)3, by Al(OH)2H2PO4, or by complexing with citrate. Thus transferrin is the ultimate carrier of Al3+ in the blood. We also used intensity changes produced by metal ion binding to determine the stability constants for Fe3+ binding to transferrin: log K1 = 22.7 and log K2 = 22.1. These constants agree closely with a revision of the reported values obtained by equilibrium dialysis. By comparison with Fe3+ binding, the Al3+ stability constants are weaker than expected; this suggests that the significantly smaller Al3+ ions cannot coordinate to all the transferrin donor atoms available to Fe3+.

In the present research, a series of Ce+3 metal ions complexation with INZ incorporating Schiff bases have been reported. INZ incorporated Schiff Bases (3a-e) were developed by condensing INZ with substituted aromatic aldehyde and confirmed with various spectral Techniques such as Elemental analysis, UV, IR, 1H-NMR, 13H NMR. All the synthesized organic ligands were evaluated against antibacterial and antifungal stains and found moderate to significant results. The Ce+3 metal ion solution mixed with newly prepared bio-active INZ Schiff bases (3a-e) to afford the [Ce-INZ Schiff Base] complexes (4a-e). The stability constants of prepared complexes were evaluated and found in order as a (3e) > (3d) > (3a) > (3b) > (3c).

Ab initio calculations were performed to study the applicability and reliability of the semi quantitative model based on the local hard-soft acid-base principle in studying the interaction of metal ions with ligands. The particular attention is devoted to the interaction of CO , CN - and SCN - as the base with some hard metal ions ( Li +, Na +, K +) and some soft metal ions ( Pd +2, Ag +2, Cd +2) as acids. The interaction energies were calculated using the HSAB principle and compared with the values obtained by the conventional MP2 method. The results show that the HSAB principle does not work in many cases and it fails to predict correct values for interaction energies. The AIM and NBO analyses were also performed to characterize the nature of the metal ion-ligand interaction. It is found that the charge transfers have great significance in the interaction of metal ions with ligands.

A potentiometric titration study of the complexation of metal ions (M+) by 4,7,13,16- tetraoxa-1,10-diazabicyclo[8.8.5] tricosane (C22C5) at 298.2 K and I = 0.05 (NEt4ClO4) yields log(K/dm3 mol-1) =6.07 and 5.36, 7.55 and 5.95, 6.26 and 7.56, 5.5 and 6.66, 4.57 and 5.16, and 8.14 and 14.51 when M+ = Li+, Na+, K+, Rb +, Cs+ and Ag+, respectively, where the first and second magnitudes of each pair refer to the stability constant (K) for [M(C22C5)]+ in acetonitrile and ropylene carbonate solvent, respectively. A 7Li n.m.r. tudy yields kd (298.2 K) = 428 s-1, ∆ Hd ‡ = 24.7 kJ mol-1 and ∆ Sd ‡ = -111 J K-1 mol-1 for the monomolecular decomplexation of Li+ from [Li(C22C5)]+, and kc(298.2 K) = 9.83×107 dm3 mol-1 s-1 for the complexation process in propylene carbonate. These data are compared with those for related systems and are discussed in terms of the factors affecting cryptate stability and lability.

The complexation of humic acid with certain heavy metal ions (Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Pb(II)) was investigated. The stability constants of humate complexes were determined by method which is based on distribution of metal ions between solution and resin in the presence and the absence of ligand, known as Schubert?s ion exchange method. Experiments were performed at 25 ?C, at pH 4.0 and ionic strength of 0.01 mol dm-3. It was found that the 1:1 complexes were formed between metal ions and humic acid. Obtained results of the stability constants, log ?mn, of complexes formed between the metal ions and humic acid follow the order Co(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II) which is the same like in the Irving-Williams series for the binding strength of divalent metal ion complexes. Stability constant of complex between Pb(II) ions and humic acid is greater than stability constants of other investigated metal-humate complexes. The investigation of interaction between heavy metal ions and humics is important for the prediction of the distribution and control of the migration of heavy metals in natural environment.


The complexation between Poly glycolic acid (PGA) and alkali metal ions (Na+ , K+ ) have been studied using B3LYP/6-311++G** method. The binding site of metal ion interaction on PGA is carbonyl oxygen. Both metal ions form bidendate complexation with PGA. Further, it can be noted that the PGA with K+ complex is more stable than the PGA with Na+ complex. The binding affinities (ΔH), basicity (ΔG) and the complexation entropies (ΔS) of all the studied systems are calculated. The interaction energy is maximum in PGA-Na+ than the PGA-K + complex. This is due to more charge transfer taking place between PGA and Na. The stability of the complex is studied by the chemical hardness value. The condensed Fukui functions are calculated and are used to predict the favourable reactive site
