The reduction of Cd(II)-Itaconic acid complexes have been investigated electrochemically in aqueous-nonaqueous medium (60% DMF, 60% Ethanol and 60% DMSO) at varying temperatures 298K and 308K. The reduction of Cd(II) was found to be reversible in nonaqueous medium for itaconic acid ligand and the formation of complexes 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 have been reported. DeFord and Hume's method as modified by Irving has been applied for the determination of composition and stability constant of the complexes species. The mathematical Mihailov's method has been also applied for comparison the stability constant values. The changes in the thermodynamic parameters Ho, Go and So accompanying complexation have been evaluated.
