Polarographic Study of Lead-Tropolone Complexation

Abstract

A.C., D. C. and derivative pulse polarography of lead-tropolone complexes has been studied. It has been shown that the application of usual treatments for complexation in d. c. polarography are invalid in this system, where the irreversible wave in presence of the ligand is a composite step. It seems generally advisable to apply derivative pulse or a.c. polarography before using non-reversible d.c. steps for evaluation of K and p.
