The Schiff base N,N'-(salicylidene)-methylenediamine, known as Salmen in combination with Cr(III) forms at pH = 4.5 a greenish precipitate, which is stable at room temperature but decomposed on heating. The study of the Infrared spectra, Electron Spin Resonance (ESR), X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetry has pointed out that the precipitation form is a complex, while the molar ratio showed that the combination rate of Cr(III): N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-methylenediamine is 1:1. The new complex crystallizes in the triclinic systems. This precipitation reaction can be used as a method for the gravimetric determination of Cr(III) with N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-methylenediamine, known as Salmen The precipitate was dried in vacuum and weighed as C 15 H 13 O 3 N 2 Cr. The overage relative error is ± 0.33%. Salmen can be used in order to precipitate and to recover the chromium from wastewaters consequential to the tanning of natural fells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
