Macrocyclic Compounds In Analytical Chemistry

Download or read book Macrocyclic Compounds in Analytical Chemistry written by Yu A. Zolotov and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 1997-07-15 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macrocycles are an important class of reagents in modern analytical chemistry because of their high selectivity. Macrocyclic chemistry is still a relatively new field, but as research progresses, the volume of data about macrocycles and their analytical applications continues to grow at a breathtaking pace. Written for analytical chemists who need to keep abreast of state-of-the-art applied macrocyclic chemistry, this groundbreaking volume presents the findings of chemists from around the world who have devoted themselves to the study of macrocycles. Macrocyclic Compounds in Analytical Chemistry covers all classes of macrocyclic compounds. Two chapters that will be of general interest across all analytical specialties are those treating the synthesis of macrocyclic compounds and complexation and selectivity. Other topics covered in detail are: Solvent extractionseparation and subsequent determination of elementsfrom crown ethers and alkali cations to porphyrins and transition metals Sorption and chromatographyincludes examples from most chromatographic techniques Ion-selective electrodes Separation and determination of organic compoundscovers both fundamental and analytical uses of host-guest complexation Macrocyclic Compounds in Analytical Chemistry is a valuable reference for research and practicing analytical chemists as well as inorganic chemists specializing in hydrometallurgy and extraction. It will also be of interest to organic and theoretical chemists interested in the practical applications of organic, synthetic macrocyles. This is the first book devoted to the macrocyclic chemistry research conducted between the 1960s and the 1990s. Covering all classes of macrocyclic compounds, this groundbreaking volume presents the findings of chemists from around the world who have devoted themselves to the study of macrocycles. An indispensable reference for research and practicing analytical chemists, Macrocyclic Compounds in Analytical Chemistry reports previously unpublished findings concerning a wide range of topics, including: Macrocyclic synthesis Complexation and selectivity Solvent extraction and separation Sorption and chromatography Ion-selective electrodes Separation and determination of organic compounds
