The binary and mixed-ligand complexes formed between ligands (histidine (His), histamine (Him) and glycine (Gly)) and some transition metals (Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II)) were studied potentiometrically in aqueous solution at (25.0 +/- 0.1)degrees C and I = 0.10 M KCl in order to determine the protonation constants of the free ligands and stability constants of binary and ternary complexes. The complexation model for each system has been established by the software program BEST from the potentiometric data. The most probable binding mode for each binary species of histidine and for all mixed species was also discussed based upon derived equilibrium constants and stability constants related to the binary species. The ambidentate nature of the histidine ligand, i.e. the ability to coordinate histamine-like, imidazolepropionic acid-like and glycine-like modes was indicated from the results obtained. The stability of ternary complexes was quantitatively compared with their corresponding binary complexes in terms of the parameters, Delta log K, log X and Delta(1110). The concentration distributions of various species formed in solution were also evaluated. In terms of the nature of metal ion, the complex stability follows the trend Cu(II) > Ni(II) > Zn(II), which is in agreement with the Irving-Williams' order of metal ions. Thus, the results obtained were compared and evaluated with those in the literature.
