✦ Synopsis

A comparati\*c study has been made of the propcrtics of dithizonc when dissolvcd in molten nal~hthalcnc and when usccl, convcntionnlly, in a chIoroform solution. This includes both the l)ropcrtics of the rcng:cnt and the sensitivity and selectivity of its reactions with metal ions. The vcrsntility of tlic rcagcnt, dithi/.onc, in the qu:Ilitativc and quantitntivc analysis of metal ions is well known. Stttncrous rcfcrcnccs can be found which discuss the proposed structures of the rcagcnt and its rcnction products ns well as its aaztlytical applications 7 0 10J1~13+~fG. Although the reagent alone iscomplctcly 2 $ lacking in selectivity, careful adjustment of l)It and chOicc of mas7;ing agents render it selective. FEIGL ASD ~~AI2arl~El.
