Question
Chapter 11, Problem 11.14P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Kind of molecule that serves as a complexing agent has to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
Crown ethers are cyclical chemical compounds that consist of a ring containing a number of ether groups. The resultant cations often variety salts that are soluble in nonpolar solvents, and for this reason crown ethers are helpful in phase transfer catalysis.
