The complexation reaction between salicylaldehyde thiosemicarbazone, abbreviated as STSC, with Cu(II) ion was studied in binary mixtures of methanol-1,4-dioxane using UV-Vis spectrophotometric and conductometric methods at different temperatures. The formation constants (K f ) for the 1:1 complex, Cu(II)-STSC, were calculated from computer fitting of the absorbance and molar conductance data against various concentrations ratios (c M :c L or c L :c M ) in different binary solvent mixtures. A non-linear correlation was observed for the variation of log K f for the complex against the solvent compositions. Various thermodynamic parameters (ΔH, ΔS and ΔG) for the formation of the Cu(II)-STSC complex were also determined from the temperature dependence of the formation constants (K f ). The results showed that the complexation reaction is affected by the nature and composition of the mixed solvents.
