✦ Synopsis

The formation equilibria of the binary and ternary complexes of Cu n with N-(acetamido)-iminodiacetic acid (ADA) and amino acids or their esters were investigated potentiometrically. The chelation mode was ascertained by conductivity measurements. The kinetics of the base hydrolysis of amino acid esters in the presence of the copper(II)-ADA complex were studied. The rate and catalysis constants were estimated.
