Chelation

Chelation (/kiːˈleɪʃən/) is a type of bonding and sequestration of metal atoms. It involves two or more separate dative covalent bonds between a ligand and a single metal atom, thereby forming a ring structure. The ligand is called a chelant, chelator, chelating agent, or sequestering agent. It is usually an organic compound, but this is not a requirement.
