Summary Furcellaran formed complexes with transition metal ions. The amount of bound metal ions decreased in the following order: Fe(III) > Mn(II) > Cu(II) > Cr(III) > Zn > Ni(II), thus the hardness of these Lewis acids seemed to be the most essential factor controlling their ligation with the polysaccharide. Resulting complexes decomposed thermally at lower temperature than plain furcellaran. Neither furcellaran bound coumarin selected as the model molecule for mycotoxins nor this oxacompound coordinated to furcellaran metal salts.
