Abstract
A NOVEL technique for analytical and preparative separations of compounds which can form complexes or adducts with metal ions has been worked out in this laboratory. The new technique can appropriately be called ‘ligand exchange’. The method combines two fields of chemistry, namely, ion exchange and co-ordination chemistry, in order to accomplish a task that neither could do alone.
