N,N-bis(2-salicylaldehyde)dipropylenetriamine(5-Hsaldipn), N,N-bis(5-bromosalicyl-aldehyde) dipropylenetriamine (5-Brsaldipn), N,N-bis(5-chlorosalicylaldehyde)dipropylene-triamine(5-Clsaldipn), N,N-bis(2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde)dipropylenetriamine(5-OCH3saldipn) and N,N-bis (2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzaldehyde)dipropylenetriamine (5-NO2saldipn) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectrometry, NMR spectrometry and mass spectrometry. Their proton dissociation constants were determined in 70% dioxane/30% water solution by potentiometric. Stability constants of the complexes between these ligands and the metal ions such as Cu(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ) and Zn(Ⅱ) were measured in dimethyl sulfoxide by a polarographic method. Stability constants for the ligands were in the order of 5-OCH3 ＞ 5-H ＞ 5-Br ＞ 5-Cl ＞ 5-NO2saldipn. Enthalpy and entropy changes were obtained in negative values.
