title: Solvent extraction of copper(II) with chlorendic acid.
abstract: The solvent extraction of Cu(II) with chlorendic acid has been studied The composition of the extracted species appears to be a function of pH. In the pH range 3.2-4.6, a monomeric species exists [Cu(II)(L(2-)], while at pH values greater than 4.5, a dimer in the form of [Cu(II)(L(2-)). H(2)L](2) and/or [Cu(II)(HL(-))(2)](2) is extracted.
