Abstract

From extraction experiments and γ-activity measurements, the exchange extraction constants corresponding to the general equilibrium M+ (aq) + CsL+ (nb) ML+ (nb) + Cs+ (aq) taking place in the two-phase water-nitrobenzene system (M+ = K+, Rb+, NH4+, Ag+, Tl+; L = calix[4]arene-bis(t-octylbenzo-18-crown-6); aq = aqueous phase, nb = nitrobenzene phase) were evaluated. Furthermore, the stability constants of the ML+ complexes in nitrobenzene saturated with water were calculated; they were found to increase in the following cation order: NH4 + < K+ < Ag+ < Rb+ < Tl+.
