Popis: Submilligram quantities of boron were completely extracted from aqueous solution into methyl isobutyl ketone as the tetrabutylammonium boron -- tetrafluoride ion association complex. The boron content of the separated organic phase was determined by direct flame spectrophotometric analysis, using an oxygen-sheathed oxyhydrogen flame as the excitation source. Of 30 metal ions studied, only five interfered at a l to 1 mole ratio to boron. Interfering anions were phosphate, perchlorate, and high levels of nitrate. Nitrate interference was eliminated by suifuric acid fuming prior to extraction. (auth)
