Abstract

Ion association between inorganic anions and symmetrical tetraalkylammonium ions, R 4N + (R = Me, Et, Pr, n-Bu, n-Am, and 2-methyl butyl {isoamyl = iAm}) was investigated using ordinary silica capillary by capillary zone electrophoresis. An improved version of the Williams–Vigh method was used for the first time to measure the mobilities of the inorganic anions. Plots of log K ass against log dielectric constant in various media, revealed a smaller change in K ass compared to dielectric constant. These plots suggest that the Bjerrum's equation is inadequate in accounting for the associations of ions in a CZE setup.
