Titration calorimetry is a powerful tool for determining thermodynamic parameters of metal- ion complexation in non-aqueous solvents. By using this method, we could have simultaneously obtained formation constants and enthalpies of not only binary but also ternary metal complexes. The enthalpy and entropy values of metal-ion complexation reflect the change in the solvation Number, and thus provide useful information on the coordination structure of metal complexes in solution.
