Abstrakt: The rate and equilibrium of solvent extraction of gallium(III) from aqueous perchlorate solutions into toluene with 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (Htta) was measured in the absence and presence of trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO). A synergistic enhancement of the extraction was found when TOPO was added. When a correction was made for the association of Htta and TOPO in the organic phase which decreased their concentrations available for the extraction, the extracted adducts was found to be in the form of Ga(tta)3(TOPO)2. The rate of extraction was not high and it was dependent on the second order with respect to Htta and the inverse second order with respect to H+in both the absence and the presence of TOPO. The rate was accelerated by addition of TOPO; the enhancement of the rate was proportional to the TOPO concentration.
