Abstract
A new method is proposed for the extraction and spectrophotometric determination of rhenium using thiocyanate and thiourea as mixed ligands. The colour formation is complete in 30 minutes and the complex is stable for 5 hours at room temperature. The complex is formed in 3.2 to 4.4 M HCl medium and is extracted into acetophenone, giving an absorbance maximum at 435 nm. The method affords a greater sensitivity than the well-known thiocyanate-stannous chloride method. Many commonly associated ions do not interfere; while interferences from Mo(VI), W(VI), V(V) and Se(IV) can be eliminated by a chloroform-tertiary amine extraction prior to the determination of rhenium.
