Summary/Abstract: Acad. Gh. Spacu (1883–1955) was an important chemist in romanian school of analytical and inorganic chemistry. He syntesised almost 1000 complex combinations. His studies reffered on coordinative chemistry, inorganical and also organical complexes. His PhD was on complex combinations of iron. He was professor of analytical chemistry and inorganical chemistry in Univerisities of Cluj, Iași and Bucarest. The omomimuos reaction, has even in present practical applications in routine analysis for calitative determinations of cations with pharmaceutical importance of 2nd and 3rd analytical groups of cations. Those complexes formed with tiocianate and pyridine can be utilised for identification of Cu2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Ni2+.
