Determination of the Stoichiometry of the Adducts Formed between some Heterocyclic Bases and Copper(II) Bis(diethyldithiocarbamate) in Various Solvents

Abstract

The stoichiometry of the adducts formed between copper(II) bis(diethyldithiocarbamate) and pyridine in benzene, toluene, and chloroform and between 3-picoline, 4-picoline, and 3,4-lutidine in benzene are shown to be 1:1. The method employed is that of Scatchard using electron paramagnetic resonance studies.
