Quercetin sulfonate, which is easily soluble in water, was used as a sensitive reagent for the determination of zircorium or hafnium. The aqueous solution of quercetin sulfonate forms a yellow complex with zircorium or hafrium which has an absorption band with a maximum lying at around 420 m mu wavelength. The favorable conditions for the determination are: the concentration of HCl and quercetin sulfonate is 0.1 to 0.5N and 2 to 3 x 10/sup -4/ mole/l, respectively. The working curves were prepared using the solution of 1 to 30 gamma /50 ml of zirconium or hafrium at 420 to 44 m mu . They follow the Beer's law well. The molar absorbancy index of the zircorium complex is 3.67 x 10/sup 4/ in case the concentration of HCl and quercetin sulfonate is 0.2N and 2.23 x 10/sup -4/ mole/ l, respectively, at 420 m mu ; that of the hafnium complex is almost the same value under the same conditions. The ratio of quercetin sulfonate to zirconium or hafnium in its complex is 1: 1 under the condition. The interference of Fe/ sup 3+/ is removed by the addition of thioglycolic acid solution. (auth)
