Synthesis and characterization of EDTA complexes useful for trace elements supplementation

The synthesis of two heterobimetallic EDTA complexes, MgCu(EDTA).6H2O and ZnCu(EDTA).6H2O, is described. They were characterized by means of vibrational (infrared and Raman) and electronic (reflectance) spectroscopy. Several dissolution tests in 0.1 N HCl and simulated gastric juice were also perfor...

Sumario:The synthesis of two heterobimetallic EDTA complexes, MgCu(EDTA).6H2O and ZnCu(EDTA).6H2O, is described. They were characterized by means of vibrational (infrared and Raman) and electronic (reflectance) spectroscopy. Several dissolution tests in 0.1 N HCl and simulated gastric juice were also performed. The results support the potential usefulness of these complexes for copper supplementation in human and veterinary medicine and to the simultaneous reinforcement of Mg(II) and Zn(II) levels.
