The Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes of aromatic bidentate diamines were prepared and characterized by different analytical and spectral methods. Thermodynamic parameters of complexes of Cu(II) and Zn(II) cations with 1,3-bis(p-aminophenoxy)propane were determined in 60 vol. % DMF-H2O at various ionic strengths (0.07, 0.13, 0.2 M NaNO3) and different temperatures (45, 50, 55, 60 +/- 0.1 degrees C) using a spectrophotometric method. The NaNO3 solution was used to maintain the ionic strength. The stability constants show an inverse relationship with ionic strengths. The thermodynamic parameters of 60 vol. % DMF-H2O (Delta G degrees, Delta H degrees, Delta S degrees) based on these formation constants were determined.
