Abstract
The synthesis of a number of N-acyl substituted phenylhydroxylamines is outlined and the effect of the change in the nature of the acyl group on their usefulness as analytical reagents is described. Stability constant measurements in alcohol show an increase in stability with an increase in basicity of reagent regardless of the nature of the attached group; their ability to precipitate complexes from aqueous solution, however, is markedly dependent on the nature of the attached radical. A spectrophotometric study shows the existence of both a 1:1 and a 1:3 iron complex. A more sensitive colorimetric reagent results with an unsaturated five-membered ring as the attached grouping.
