Ts. Lobana et Pk. Bhatia, ORGANOPHOSPHORUS REAGENTS AS EXTRACTANTS .5. SYNERGIC EFFECT OF TRIPHENYLPHOSPHINE OXIDE ON THE EXTRACTION OF IRON(III) USING 4-PHENYL-2,4-BUTANEDIONE, Indian journal of chemistry. Sect. A: Inorganic, physical, theoretical & analytical, 33(2), 1994, pp. 178-179
Fe(III) is separated quantitatively from its binary mixtures with Cr(I
II), Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Hg(II) and Mg(II) and from steel
samples using a synergic combination of 4-phenyl-2,4-butanedione(HA) w
ith triphenylphosphine oxide(Ph(3)PO). However, copper(II) and silver(
I) interfere. The extraction and stability constants of the synergic s
pecies Fe(NCS)A(2)(Ph(3)PO) are found to be: 1.2 x 10(9) and 7.3 x 10(
4) respectively.
