Abstract
3-Methylsulfolane is evaluated as an electrolytic solvent utilizing conductance techniques. Conductance data for triisoamylbutylammonium tetraphenylborate and iodide, NaBPh4, KBPh4, NaSCN, KSCN, NaI, and KI were analyzed by the Fuoss-Shedlovsky, Fuoss-Onsager, expanded Pitts, and Fuoss-Hsia treatments. Assocation decreases in the order thiocyanates > iodides > tetraphenylborates. These conductance data at 25°C agree with those obtained in previous investigations of 3-methylsulfolane at 30°C and sulfolane.
