Abstract

The acidic dissociation constant of N-(2-acetamido)-iminodiacetic acid monosodium (ADA) has been determined at 12 temperatures from 278.15 to 328.15 K by electromotive-force (emf) measurements of hydrogen-silver chloride cells without liquid junction. At 298.15 K, the value of the dissociation constant (pK₂) is 6.8416 ± 0.0004. In response to the need for new physiological pH standards, buffer solutions of NaADA and its disodium salt, Na₂ADA would be useful for pH control in the biological region of pH 6.5 to 7.5. The pK₂ values over the experimental temperature range are given as a function of the thermodynamic temperature (T) by the equation pK₂ = 2943.784/T - 47.05762 + 7.72703 ln T. At 298.15 K, standard thermodynamic quantities for the dissociation process have been derived from the temperature coefficients; ΔH° = 12,252 J·mol^-1, ΔS° = -89.9 J·K^-1·mol^-1 and = -148 J·K^-1·mol^-1. The results are interpreted and compared with those of structurally related derivatives of GLYCINE.
