Abstract
Metal ions, including Mg(II), Ca(II), Sr(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Nd(III), Eu(III), and Tb(III), were investigated in binary systems alongside ampicillin at molar ratios of 1:1 and 1:2. These investigations were carried out in aqueous solutions, and the formation of complexes was verified through meticulous computational analysis. Detailed stability constants for the formed complexes and equilibrium constants for the involved reactions were meticulously determined. Furthermore, a comprehensive examination of the impact of ligand concentration on the configuration of the central metal atom's coordination sphere was conducted. This investigation was complemented by spectroscopic measurements, which effectively confirmed the observed changes in the coordination sphere of the metal ions.
