Abstract

Phenylacetic acid has been found to be very useful as a reagent in the extraction of large quantities of certain ions, notable iron(III), cobalt(II), copper(II), lead, zinc, cadmium and uranyl. A 1M solution of the reagent in chloroform is used to extract up to 200 mg of certain ions from small volumes of aqueous phase. Selectivity is increased by pH control and masking.
