Abstract

The polarographic method has been used to the study of the systems Pb(II)-valine and Pb(II)-valinate ion in aqueous medium, at I = 0.15 mol l-1 (NaClO4) and 37 °C. The stabilized complexes were found: [Pb(HV)]2+, β10 = 9.0; [Pb(HV)2]2+, β20 = 12; [Pb(V)]+, β01 = 1.8 × 104; and [Pb(V)2], β02 = 1.7 × 106.
