C. Foti et al., Analysis of thermodynamic data for complex formation: Protonation of THAM and fluoride ion at different temperatures and ionic strengths, ANN CHIM, 89(1-2), 1999, pp. 87-98
A fairly general method is described for analysing thermodynamic parameters
for protonation and metal complex formation from logK, Delta H degrees and
Delta C(p)degrees data at different temperatures and ionic strengths using
the appropriate computer program. The method was applied to the protonatio
n of THAM [or tris, tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamine], in NaCl, and the fluor
ide ion, in NaClO4. Recommended values for protonation thermodynamic parame
ters are reported.
