Spectropolarimetric back-titrations are described for rhodium(III); the optically active ligand (R, R)-(-)-tłans-l, 2-cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid (R, R(-)CDTA) is used as the complexing agent and cadmium(II) ion as the back-titrant. The optical rotation is monitored throughout the titration, and the optically active ligand and stereospecifically formed complexes serve as self-indicators. The end points are determined graphically by straight-line extrapolations from a plot of volume-corrected observed rotations versus ml of titrant. The rhodium(III) titration plots are representative of normal spectro-polarimetric back-titrations. The range of analyses of rhodium(III) was from 40–0.5 mg.
