Description
Offered here is a two-volume set of Stability Constants of Metal-Ion Complexes, with Solubility Products of Inorganic Substances, published by The Chemical Society (London) under the auspices of IUPAC. These mid-century data compilations were core laboratory references for coordination chemistry and analytical equilibrium work, bringing together stability (formation) constants from the primary literature in a standardized, usable format.
This matching set includes:
*
Part I: Organic Ligands – Chemical Society Special Publication No. 6 (1957)
*
Part II: Inorganic Ligands – Chemical Society Special Publication No. 7 (1958)
Notable points that add interest and value:
*
Complete two-part set (often encountered separately), covering both organic and inorganic ligand systems
*
Compiled by major figures in the field (Bjerrum, Schwarzenbach, Sillén) and issued under IUPAC auspices
*
Strong scientific provenance: Associated Universities, Inc. / Brookhaven National Laboratory (Upton, NY) library copy, including typed owner stamp to E. J. Tuthill and library identifiers
*
Includes a period handwritten research note slip referencing ligand systems (see photos)
Condition notes:
Ex-library/technical library provenance with bookplates, stamps, call number markings, and typical handling wear to cloth boards (rubbing/edge wear visible). Interior appears generally well-preserved for a working reference set. Please review all photos for complete condition details and all markings.
