The complex formation of thiomalic acid (H3L) with Hg(II) and Pb(II) was investigated under physiological conditions of 37 degrees C and 0.15 mol dm-3 NaCl by potentiometric titrations using glass electrodes. From the analysis of the emf data in the two systems by use of computer program MIQUV it was concluded that the species formed in the two systems are [HgH4L2], [HgH3L]-, [HgH2L2]2-, [HgHL2]3-, [HgHL], [HgL]-, [HgL2]4-, [Hg(OH)L]2-, [Hg(OH)L2]5-, [PbH2L2]2-, [PbH2L]+, [PbHL2]3-, [PbHL], [PbL]-, [Pb(OH)L]2-, and [Pb(OH)2L]3-...
