title: Reactions of 2',7'-bis(acetoxymercuri)- fluorescein with certain complexing anions.
abstract: Absorption and fluorescence emission spectra of 2',7'-bis (acetoxymercuri)-fluorescein (AMF) at various pH values and in the presence of mercury-complexing agents such as mercaptoacetic acid, cyanide and iodide have been employed in the study of the reactions of AMF with these ligands. The findings have been applied to the development of methods for the determination of submicrogram quantities of iodide and cyanide with a precision of better than 10%.
