The determination of stability constants by measuring the increase in solubility of a nearly insoluble host molecule due to complex formation with a soluble guest is discussed. If the host molecule absorbs in the UV-visible region, spectrophotometric measurements are easily performed to obtain the stability constants. The solubilities of the crown ether dibenzo-18-crown-6 and of the cryptand (222BB) in aqueous solutions and the molar absorptivities of these ligands and their complexes with alkali and alkaline earth metal cations were determined. The increase in solubility of these ligands due to complex formation with cations was used to calculate the stabilities of the complexes formed. Even under the assumption that neither the molar absorptivities nor the solubilities are known, the calculated stability constants agree very well with those obtained using the measured values of the molar absorptivities and solubilities. The accuracy of the stability constants even increases with decreasing solubility of the ligands.
