Some vicinal dioximes as gravimetric reagents.
A series of 3,3-substituted indane-1,2-dionedioximes has been synthesized and their reactions with transition metals have been investigated. From the results obtained it is suggested that the selectivity of such dioximes, as gravimetric reagents, is not a function of the dioxime grouping but is due to metal-metal bonding in the complex.
