Di-2-pyridyl ketoxime, a new reagent for the rapid gravimetric determination of palladium

Abstract
Di-2-pyridyl ketoxime is proposed for the gravimetric determination of palladium. The chelate is precipitated over a pH range of between 3 and 11 and weighed as Pd(C11H8ON3)2. An extensive study of foreign ions and analytical conditions for precipitation indicates the procedure to be widely applicable, rapid and simple.
