Abstract

Compounds of general Formula I ##STR1## wherein Z.sup.1 and Z.sup.2 in each case independently mean the residue EQU --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --(C.sub.6 H.sub.4).sub.q --(O).sub.k --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --(C.sub.6 H.sub.4).sub.l --(O).sub.r --R, PA1 wherein PA2 m and n means the numbers 0-20, PA2 k, l, q and r means the numbers 0 and 1, and PA2 R means a hydrogen atom, an optionally OR.sup.1 -substituted C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl residue, or a CH.sub.2 COOR.sup.1 group with R.sup.1 meaning it hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl residue, or a benzyl group, PA1 X means a hydrogen atom and/or a metal ion equivalent of an element of atomic number 21-29, 42, 44 or 57-83, with the provisos that at least two the substituents X stand for a metal ion equivalent; that one of the substituents Z.sup.1 and Z.sup.2 stands for a hydrogen and the other is not H; that--if n and l each mean the number 0--k and r do not simultaneously mean the number 1; that --(O).sub.r --R is not --OH; and that Z.sup.1 and Z.sup.2 are not --CH.sub.2 --C.sub.6 H.sub.4 --O--CH.sub.2 --COOCH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.5 or --CH.sub.2 --C.sub.6 H.sub.4 --O--(CH.sub.2).sub.5 --COOCH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.5, as well as their salts with in…
