Abstract

Abstract Two novel trifluoromethyl-substituted chromogenic crown ethers are disclosed, 4'-(2",6"-dinitro-4" trifluoromethylphenyl) aminobenzo-15-crown-5 and 4'-(2",4"-dinitro-6"-trifluoromethylphenyl) aminobenzo-15-crown-5. These compounds are useful as reagents for the extraction and spectrophotometric determination of potassium in the presence of sodium. The compounds, their methods of manufacture, and methods of utilizing the compounds for the analysis of potassium are disclosed and claimed.
