Abstract: The extraction of scandium picrate by benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) and dibenzo-18-crown-6(DB18C6) has been studied. The compositions of the extracts have been determined by the slope analysis method as Sc (B15C5)1.5(OH) (Pi)2 and Sc (DB18C6) (OH) (Pi)2 (Pi=pi-crate ion) with apparent extraction equilibrium constants logKex=5.69 and 3.59 (25℃), respectively. The crystal of the Sc(B15C5)Pi3·2H2O·CH3CN belongs to triclinic system,space group P1, a=1.2678(2), b=1.3764(3), c=1.9440(4)nm, α=81.03(2)°, β=70.88(1)°, γ=70.71(2)°, Z=2. The mechanism of the extraction has been elucidated.
