## Abstract Dipicrylamine anion (DPA^–^) precipitates out [K(DPA)] with high selectivity from salt bitterns containing Na^+^, K^+^, and Mg^2+^, whereas the same ligand shows poor selectivity towards K^+^ – and much higher selectivity towards Cs^+^ – in studies conducted with a mixture of K^+^, Rb^+

## Abstract The preparation of a series of non‐cyclic, uncharged ligands able to selectively complex alkali and alkaline earth metal cations is described. These molecules are designed to be used as carriers for cations through membranes. Some of the compounds show high Ca^2+^ and Na^+^ selectivity,
Formation constants of acetate, hydrogencarbonate, malonate, citrate and 1,2,3-propanetricarboxylate complexes with Na+, K+ and Ca'+ were determined potentiometrically using sodium, potassium and calcium selective electrodes, at 25°C and at different ionic strengths, in the range 0 <II 1 M.

Crown ether dyes with pendent anionic side-arms were synthesized for extractionspectrophotometry of alkali and alkaline earth metal ions. Dramatic changes in metal selectivity were obtained simply by changing the nature of the anionic side-arm on the same crown ether skeleton. A structure/metal sele
