The equilibrium constants and thermodynamic parameters for complex formation of 18-crown-6(18C6) with Zn2+, Tl+, Hg2+ and UO22+ cations have been determined by conductivity measurements in acetonitrile(AN)-dimethylformamide(DMF) binary solutions. 18-crown-6 forms 1:1 complexes [M:L] with Zn2+, Hg2+ and UO22+ cations, but in the case of Tl+ cation, a 1:2 [M:L-2] complex is formed in most binary solutions. The thermodynamic parameters (Delta H-c(o) and Delta S-c(o)) which were obtained from temperature dependence of the equilibrium constants show that in most cases, the complexes are enthalpy destabilized but entropy stabilized and a non-monotonic behaviour is observed for variations of standard enthalpy and entropy changes versus the composition of AN/ DMF binary mixed solvents. The obtained results show that the order of selectivity of 18C6 ligand for these cations changes with the composition of the mixed solvent. A non-linear relationship was observed between the stability constants (logK(f)) of these complexes with the composition of AN/DMF binary solutions. The influence of the ClO4-, NO3- and Cl- anions on the stability constant of (18C6-Na+) complex in methanol (MeOH) solutions was also studied by potentiometry method. The results show that the stability of (18C6-Na+) complex in the presence of the anions increases in order: ClO4- > NO3- > Cl-.
