Dithiooxamide (Rubeanic Acid) is a selective chelating agent and a sulfur-containing analog of Oxamide. It forms stable chelates with various metal ions, including lead, iron, cadmium, manganese, and aluminum, allowing for their separation, enrichment, and detection by adsorption on solid adsorbents or electrode surfaces.
