Abstract
The increase in hydrogen ion concentration of monosodium o‐cresotate solution by the progressive addition of beryllium sulphate indicated the possibility of the formation of a complex and also the displacement of hydroxyl hydrogen of monosodium o‐cresotate. In the mixtures of beryllium sulphate and monosodium o‐cresotate mixed in 1:2 or more mole ratios, two colourless complexes are formed, one at about pH 5‐‐25 containing beryllium and o‐cresotate in 1:1 ratio and the other above pH 8.5 containing beryllium and o‐cresotate in 1:2 ratio.
The specific conductivity curves obtained by the conductometric titrations of 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3, mole ratio mixtures of beryllium sulphate and monosodium o‐cresotate by alkali, show definite break when one equivalent of alkali is added indicating the formation of only one 1:1 mole ratio complex of beryllium and o‐cresotate.
