stability of the former, in accordance with the fact that the IIIa chelate does not form until a relatively high pH is attained. The absorption spectrum of the copper chelate of I I I a is quite similar to that of the corresponding EHPG chelate. I n the ultraviolet region there is an absorption band a t 238.5 mp which increases in intensity with an increase in pH. This is apparently due to the copper phenolate linkage which is formed as the PH increases. There is also a band a t 213 mp a t very low pH which disappears a t and above the inflection point and which probably is due to the presence of the free phenolic group in acid solution. In the visible region the similarity between the copper chelates of EHPG and I I I a are quite striking and the effects observed as a result of participation of the phenolic groups in complex formation are the same for both compounds. Like EHPG, the ultraviolet spectra of a p ' ethylenediiminodi-o-cresol (11) and of 2-(o-hydroxyphenyl)-glycine (IIIa) show a band a t about 277 nip (with E of about 2000 per cresol group) which shifts a t high PH to give a phenolate band a t 292-6 mw with E of about 3000 per cresol group. In all three compounds the spectra indicate that the ionization of the phenol group is not complete until the pH is over 12. I n the case of 2-(o-methoxyphenyl)-glycine (IIIb, not shown), this variation of spectra with pH does not occur, and the 273 mp band remains a t the same intensity ( E 2000) over the whole pH range. Comparison of the ultraviolet spectra of I1 and I I I a with the spectra of their iron chelates indicates that no significant changes are introduced by combination with the metal ion. This is roughly in accord with the titration data, which indicate that a stable chelate between the Fe(II1) ion and the ligand is not formed except perhaps a t rather high PH.

analogous to X I I I . This effect is seen in the absorption spectra by a decrease in extinction coefficient of the Fe(II1) chelate above pH 11. The significant difference in the Fe(II1) complexes of I and IIIa brought out by the titration and spectrophotometric data is the much greater

They were washed finally with alcohol and ether and dried a t 60'. Typical analyses of freshly dried crystals were: K = 10.8, Pt = 54.6, C1 = 31.2, 28.4, NH3 = 5.1; calculated K = 10.9, Pt = 54.5, C1 29.6, NHI = 4.8. Analyses for chloride were made gravimetrically as AgCI, after platinum had been plated out of a basic solution. Platinum was determined gravimetrically by electroplating on Pt-electrodes from an HzSOl solution containing a trace of nitrate. The potassium and ammonium ion in the solution were determined by the use of the sodium tetraphenylboron reagent, following the procedure of Gloss.6 Analyses indicated that in the laboratory atmosphere the crystals slowly added approximately one HzO per mole. However it was shown that the HzO did not replace ligands on the platinum. The sodium tetraphenylboron was purchased from the Hach Chemical Company. It was dissolved and filtered to prepare the precipitating reagent. For ion-exchange separations, Dowex-1 anion-exchange [Pt(NI&)Cl,]Ha0 resin, screened 20/50 mesh (inches), was employed.

The present paper concerns a study of the kinetics and equilibrium behavior of aqueous systems containing K[Pt(NH3)Cl3]. The aquation process, in which a chloride is reversibly replaced by H20, provides a means for the isotopic exchange of chloride ligands with chloride ion in the solution. This work was undertaken to supplement a study of such isotopic exchange which is t o be reported later. With the [Pt(NH3)C&]- system special consideration needs to be given t o the possible nonequivalence of the chlorides in the well-recognized square planar complexes. Thus in the reaction k- 1

[Pt(NH3)CIz(H20)] Solutions.-Since [Pt(NH3)CIB(HzO)] species is uncharged, it was possible to prepare solutions of this compound which were relatively free from [Pt(XHs)Cl,] - and C1- by the use of an anion-exchange resin. The formation of the aquo-species was favored by dilution, so approximately molar solutions of K [Pt(NH3)Cl3] were aged t o establish the steady state. This solution was then passed at a rate of about 5 ml./inin. through a 1.5 cm. X 40 cm. column filled with Dowes-1 anion-exchange resin in the sulfate form. The ultraviolet spectrum of such an effluent solution is shown in Fig. 2 which also includes the spectrum - for comparison. of [Pt(SH3)Cl3]
