Abstract

Recent work in this laboratory has centered around Platinum metals and their coordination compounds. Specifically, Thin-Layer Chromatography of Platinum metal ions has been reported in one of the recent dissertations (1). The purpose of the present work was to carry out a systematic study of Thin-Layer Chromatography on the following complexes: Tetrammine Platinum (II) Chloride [Pt (NH3)4]Cl2 Tetraammine Palladium (II) Chloride. [Pd (NH3)4]Cl2 Hexammine Platinum (IV) Chloride. [Pt (NH3)6]Cl4 Hexammine Palladium (IV) Chloride [Pd (NH3)6]Cl4

After the complexes had been synthesized, the main problem lay in finding a suitable adsorbent and solvent system for separating a mixture of all four complexes as well as an appropriate locating reagent, so that once the separation had been accomplished, complexes could be identified.
