Chelation

Chelation logo #21000 Chelation describes a particular way that ions and molecules bind metal ions. According to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), chelation involves the formation or presence of two or more separate coordinate bonds between a polydentate (multiple bonded) ligand and a single central atom. Usually these ligands are organic c...

chelation

chelation logo #20718The formation or presence of bonds (or other attractive interactions) between two or more separate binding sites within the same ligand and a single central atom. A molecular entity in which there is chelation (and the corresponding chemical species) is called a 'chelate'. The terms bidentate (or didentate), tridentate, tetradentate... multidentate...

chelation

chelation logo #21160A chemical reaction in which a certain type of organic compound, known as a chelating agent, combines with a metal ion by forming coordinate bonds with two or more atoms of the organic compound. Examples of chelating agents include tartaric acid (CHOHCOOH)2 and ethylenediamine...

chelation

chelation logo #10444Binding of a metal ion by a larger molecule such as EDTA or protein (iron in haem is held as a chelate). The binding is strong but reversible and chelating agents can be used to buffer the free concentration of the ion in question.

Chelation

Chelation logo #23336The formation of bonds between organic compounds and metals, some of which are insoluble, as in humus. Soluble chelates are used in fertilizers to help keep nutrient metals, such as iron, mobile in the soil and thus available to plants rather than locked up in insoluble mineral salts.
