A method is described for determining scandium in uranium compounds. In the proposed procedure scandium is separated from interfering elements by extraction into a 0.2 M solution of 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone in xylene, The scandium is then separated from the organic phase with nitric acid and determined spectrophotometrically as the red-brown colored scandium-alizarin complex. Of the elements usually found in uranium compounds, only copper interferes. (auth)
