description

The complex formation occurring between tungstic acid and tartaric acid has been investigated in order to explain the optical activity of tartaric acid in the presence of constant amounts of tungstic acid. A new scheme of formation that includes three different complexes is presented, which explains the experimental results found in the literature.
