Abstract
WE are greatly interested to read of the success obtained by Prof. Karagunis and G. Coumoulos in effecting a partial resolution of a complex chromium salt by the use of active quartz. Following up the work of Tsuchida, Kobayashi and Nakamura1 upon the detection of a raeemic inorganic complex by immersing powdered active quartz in its solution, we have also been examining the possibility of extending these results by the use of quartz columns in conjunction with inorganic as well as organic complexes.
