Thermodynamics of the formation of complexes of copper(II) ions and glycylglycine in aqueous solutions at 298 K according to calorimetry data

Heat effects of the interaction between glycylglycine and copper(II) nitrate solutions are measured by direct calorimetry at a [metal] : [ligand] ratio of 1 : 5 and at different pH values of the solution. The measurements are made at a temperature of 298.15 K and ionic strengths of 0.25, 0.50, and 0.75. KNO3 is used as a background electrolyte. The thermodynamic characteristics of complex formation by the peptide and copper(II) ions in aqueous solutions are determined. Standard enthalpies of the formation of complex particles in aqueous solutions are calculated.
