Stability Constants of Nickel(II)–Nicotinamide Complexes in Aqueous–Ethanol Solutions

摘要

The change in stability of 1: 1 and 1: 2 nicotinamide nickel(II) complexes in an aqueous ethanol with ethanol contents of 0 to 0.85 molar fractions is studied via potentiometry at 298.2 ± 0.1 K and a ionic strength of 0.25 (NaClO_4). The constant of complex formation for the first step increases at concentrations of organic solvent lower than 0.5 molar fractions and decreases at a higher content of ethanol. The weakening of the solvation of the donor center in nicotinamide corresponds to the observed change in the stability of the complex. A linear interrelation between the change in the coordination equilibrium constant and the differ- ence between the effect of solvent composition on the solvation of the complex ions and complexing agent is revealed.
