Adduct formation by the oxinates of certain metals.
Various metal oxinates readily form adducts either with the reagent or other organic bases, and the adduct formation results in a synergic effect on the extraction of these oxinates into organic solvents. The nature of the adducts has been extensively explored but is still not completely understood. This paper surveys current knowledge of this field.
