Abstract

The reactions of four dyes of the alizarin green series with indium(III) ions were studied. In weakly acid media of pH 4-6.5, binary InL and InL2 complexes are formed in solution. In the presence of cationic tensides containing cetyltrimethylammonium and cetyl pyridinium, defined ternary complexes, InL3S6, are formed in the solution. The conditional stability constants of the binary In-L complexes and the equilibrium constants of the studied complexing ternary systems were calculated and a procedure for the photometric and chelometric determination of indium was proposed.
