Conductances of some quaternary ammonium and sulphonium salts in chloroform

Abstract

Conductances of diethylmethylsulphonium and tetra-n-butylammonium salts have been measured in chloroform solution, both for the pure salts and for equimolar mixtures. The dissociation constants and concentrations of the single ions. ion-pairs. and triple ions have been calculated. The concentrations of the single and triple ions were found to be markedly different in solutions of the pure sulphonium salts from those in the equimolar mixture of sulphonium and ammonium salts.
