Schiff bases (SBs) are aldehyde- or ketone-like compounds in which the carbonyl group is replaced by an imine or azomethine. In spite of the large interest always shown in the coordination properties of Schiff base ligands and the attention paid in recent years to the possible variable biological activities of their metal complexes, studies dealing with protonation and formation equilibria of Schiff bases and their complexes are still very rare. Thus, the importance of the determination of the equilibrium constants of Schiff bases and their complex formation equilibria is of paramount importance to understand the complicated biological reactions like transamination, racemization and decarboxylation. The 33 ligands considered herein include salicylaldehyde/substituted salicylaldehyde SBs and salicylaldehyde/substituted salicylaldehyde amino acid SBs. This article is focused on protonation and complex-formation equilibria of salicylaldehyde or substituted salicylaldehyde SBs and salicylaldehyde amino acid SBs in aqueous and nonaqueous solutions, taking into account also the structure-activity correlation of SBs and their metal(II) complexes based on their stability constants. Activity of SBs enhances upon complexation and the order of activity is nearly in accord with the order of the formation constants of metal ions. The few enthalpy and entropy changes available for such protonation and complex-formation reactions are reported and discussed.
