Abstract
The complexation reaction between salicylaldehyde thiosemicarbazone,
abbreviated as STSC, with Cu2+ ion was studied in the binary mixtures of
methanol + 1,4-dioxane binary by using UV-Visible spectrophotometric and
conductometric methods at different temperatures. The formation constants
(Kf) for the 1:1 complex, Cu2+-STSC, were calculated from computer fitting of
the absorbance and molar conductance data against various mole ratios (cM:cL
or cL:cM) in different binary solvent mixtures. A non-linear correlation was
observed for the variation of logKf for the complex against the solvent
compositions. Various thermodynamic parameters (ΔH, ΔS and ΔG) for the
formation of Cu2+-STSC complex were also determined from the temperature
dependence of the stability constants (Kf). The results showed that the
complexation reaction is affected by the nature and composition of the mixed
solvents.
