The complex forming ability of (+)-6-aminopenicillanic acid with oxovanadium(IV), cobalt(II) and nickel(II) in aqueous solution maintained at 35 degreesC is studied through circular dichroism spectra In these systems, complexation is indicated with the development of well defined CD bands in crystal field region between 18,349-24, 691 cm(-1). The optimum conditions of pH, stoichiometry, time for attaining maximum complexation and formation constants are reported for these complex ions. The CD bands are assigned to electronic transitions.
