A. Ouahabi et al., MODE OF ACTION OF CALCIMYCIN (A23187) .7. COMPLEXATION OF LANTHANIDE CATIONS IN METHANOL, Journal de chimie physique et de physico-chimie biologique, 94(4), 1997, pp. 782-798
Formation constants of complexes and basic complexes of calcimycin wit
h lanthanum, gadolinium and europium (III) cations were obtained in me
thanol using a potentiometric method. E.s.r. spectra of gadolinium for
varying concentrations of gadolinium perchlorate, calcimycin and tetr
abutylammonium methoxide afforded identification of the various specie
s formed. Results obtained are discussed in terms of equilibria, struc
tures and transport of lanthanide cations by calcimycin.
