Lithium selective ionophores based on pendant arm substituted crown ethers

Abstract
Ligands have been synthesised which offer good selectivity for lithium ions over sodium based on substituted 14-crown-4 derivatives which bear diamide groups on the ethylene chain or, less effectively, on the central carbon of the propylene chain. The behaviour of potentiometric membrane electrodes based on these ionophores is compared.
