L-Lysine monohydrochloride has been investigated as a ligand and it has been found that it forms 1:1 chelates with Cd(II) and Fe(II). The two chelates have been isolated and their formulas determined on the basis of chemical analysis. The I.R. data and magnetic measurements have been used to assign structure to the chelates.
