Kinetics of Displacement of Ni(II) by Cu(II) in Bis(dithiocarbamato)nickel(II)

Abstract

Rates of displacement of Ni(II) in bis(dithiocarbamato)Ni(II) by Cu(II) with a variety of substituted dithiocarbamic acids in different solvents have been determined and a mechanism of the reaction and potential application of the displacement reaction to spectrophotometric titration of Cu(II) for its quantitative determination are suggested.
