Spectrophotometric Studies of Complex Formationwith Sulfosalicylic Acid. V. With Chromium(II1)

BYALFREDM. LIEBMANXD ROBBIN . ANDERSON

RECEIVED OVEMBER3, 1951

The reaction of chromium(II1) with sulfosalicylicacid has been studikd as par t of a series of investi-gations on complex formation in solution betweensulfosalicylic acid and ions of various e1ements.l

Figure 1 shows, for comparison, the absorptionspectrum of an equimolar mixture of chromium-(111) nitrate and sulfosalicylic acid and those forcorresponding solutions of each separately. CurveB shows the net difference in transmittance whenthe absorption curve for the mixture was deter-mined using the chromium(II1) as a blank. It isevident that some colored product is formed, witha maximum in absorption at 550 mp. It was also

found that the presence of sulfosalicylic acid in-creased materially the pH a t which precipitation ofchromium(II1) hydroxide could occur.
