Ligands, Br-PEMP, Cl-PEMP and $CH_3O-PEMP$ having Br, Cl and $CH_3O$ substituents at 5-position of the $N_2O$ tridentate ligand, 2-[(2-pyridine-2-ethylamio)-methyl]-phenol (H-PEMP) containing pyridine and phenol were synthesized. Another ligand, Naph-PEMP having pyridine and 2-hydroxy-1-naphthalene was also synthesized. The ligands were characterized using elemental analysis, UV-visible, IR, $^1H\;NMR\;and\;^{13}C$ NMR spectroscopy and mass analysis. The potentiometric titration study in aqueous solution revealed that the proton dissociation of the ligands occurred in three steps and the order of overall proton dissociation constants (log${\beta}$) was $CH_3O-PEMP$ > Naph-PEMP > H-PEMP > Cl-PEMP > Br-PEMP. The order of stability constants (logML and log$ML_2$) of their transition metal complexes was Co(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II). The order in their stability constants values of each transition metal complex agreed well with that in overall proton dissociation constant value of the ligands.

Hydrobromic acid salt of a $N_2O_2$ tetradentate ligand, N,N'-bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)-ethylene-diamine ($H-BHE{\cdot}2HBr$) was synthesized. $Br-BHE{\cdot}2HBr$, $Cl-BHE{\cdot}2HBr$, $CH_3-BHE{\cdot}2HBr$ and $CH_3O-BHE{\cdot}2HBr$ having Br, Cl, $CH_3$ and $CH_3O$ substituents at 5-position of the phenol group of $H-BHE{\cdot}2HBr$ were also synthesized. $Nap-BHE{\cdot}2HBr$ having naphthalen-2-ol instead of the phenol group was also synthesized. The potentiometry study in aqueous solution revealed that the proton dissociations of the synthesized ligands occurred in four steps and the order of the calculated overall proton dissociation constants (${\log}{\beta}_p$) of each ligand was Br-BHE < Cl-BHE < H-BHE < Nap-BHE < $CH_3$-BHE < $CH_3O$-BHE. The order showed a similar trend to that of Hammett substituent constants(${\sigma}_P$). The order of the stability constants (${\log}K_{ML}$) was CO(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II) > Cd(II) > Pb(II). The order in their stability constants (${\log}K_{ML}$) of each transition metal complex agreed well with that of the overall proton dissociation constants (${\log}{\beta}_p$).

A new $N_4O_3$ heptadentate ligand, N,N'-Bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)-1,3-bis[(2-aminoethyl)amino]-2-propanol(H-BAP 4HCl)was synthesized. The hydrochloric acid salts of Br-BAP 4HCl, Cl-BAP 4HCl, $CH_3O$-BAP 4HCl and $CH_3$-BAP 4HCl containing Br-, Cl-, H-, $CH_3O-$ and $CH_{3^-}$ groups at the para-site of the phenol group of the H-BAP were synthesized. The structures of the ligands were confirmed by C. H. N. atomic analysis and $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR, UV-visible and mass spectra. The elemental stepwise protonation constants(${logK_n}^H$) of the synthesized $N_4O_3$ ligands showed six steps of the proton dissociation. The orders of the overall dissociation constants($log{\beta}_p$) of the ligands were Br-BAP < Cl-BAP < H-BAP < $CH_3O$-BAP < $CH_3$-BAP. The orders agreed well with that of Hammett substituent constants($\sigma_p$). The calculated stability constants($logK_{ML}$) between the ligands and transition metal ions agreed well with the order of the overall proton dissociation constants of the ligands but they showed a reverse order in Hammestt substituent constants($\sigma_p$). The order of the stability constants between the transition metal ions with the ligands were Co(II) < Ni(II) < Cu(II) > Zn(II) > Cd(II) > Pb(II).
