Miniglass,an interactive program for the evaluation of stability constants of metal/ligand complexes from potentiometric data

MINIGLASS is a microcomputer program for the treatment of pH titrations for evaluation of stability constants and adjustment of the parameters defining the titration curve. The program is written in PASCAL for the HP-200 computer series, and contains procedures for blank titrations, acidity constants and metal/ligand stability constants. Graphics support is provided for easy interaction with the user. The data files can be written by the editor of the operating system or can be created automatically from an automatic titration system. The program is tested for the determination of the formation constants of the well-studied Ni²⁺/glycine system. The results obtained agree well with literature values.
