“…Nevertheless, the results established a stoichiometry of 1:1 with log K 2 = 4.7 (pH = 6.5), log K 2 = 4.6 (pH = 7.0), and log K 2 = 4.4 (pH = 7.5). These values agree quite well with those determined in an indirect way (log K 2 = 4.3 at pH = 7.0 and log K 2 = 4.2 at pH = 7.5). At pH > 7.5 the data were more accurate and, for instance, log K 2 = 3.9 at pH = 9.0 (see Figure S4, Supporting Information).…”
