[Cu(en)(H2O)4]2+                        →  KStb  = 3 × 1010

[Cu(en)2(H2O)2]2+                     → KStb = 1 × 109

[Cu(en)3]2+                                → KStb = 0.1

[Ni(en)(H2O)4]2+                       → KStb  = 2 × 107

[Ni(en)2(H2O)2]2+                     → KStb = 1 × 106

[Ni(en)3]2+                                → KStb = 1 × 104
