The aqueous complexation reactions of trivalent lanthanide cations with the
ligand 1,3,5-triamino-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositol (TACI) have been charact
erised using potentiometry, electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry and s
olution NMR. Isostructural trinuclear complexes, [Ln(3)(TACIH(-3))(2)](3+),
are formed all along the series and their stability constants are extremel
y dependent on the cation radius. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
