The stepwise formation constants for complexes of NH 3 with [Cu(OH 2 ) 6 ] 2+ (aq)

Question:

The stepwise formation constants for complexes of NH3 with [Cu(OH2)6]2+(aq) are log Kf1 = 4.15, log Kf2 = 3.50, log Kf3 = 2.89, log Kf4 = 2.13, and log Kf5 = −0.52. Suggest a reason why Kf5 is so different.
