E. Makrlik et al., Extraction of lead with nitrobenzene solution of strontium bis-1,2-dicarbollylcobaltate in the presence of 15-crown-5, J RAD NUCL, 241(3), 1999, pp. 659-661
From extraction experiments and gamma-activity measurements, the extraction
constant corresponding to the equilibrium Pb2+(aq)+SrL22+(nb) reversible a
rrow PbL22+(nb)+Sr2+(aq) taking place in the two-phase water-nitrobenzene s
ystem (L = 15-crown-5; aq = aqueous phase, nb = nitrobenzene phase) was eva
luated: log K-ex (Pb2+,SrL22+)=3.0. Further, the stability constant of the
PbL22+ complex in nitrobenzene saturated with water was calculated: log bet
a(nb) (PbL22+)= 17.8.
