Synthesis of polymer-supported azacrown ether ion exchanger, {(4,5): (13,14)-dibenzo-6,9,12-trioxa-3,15,21-triazazabicyclo[15.3.1]heneicosa-1(21),17,19-triene-2,16-dione : DBPDA ion exchanger}, and its ion binding ability to alkali metal $(Li^+,\;Na^+,\;K^+)$ picrates were studied. The binding constants $(K_b)$ of DBPDA ion exchanger to the alkali metal picrates in ether type solvents were obtained by spectrophotometry. Binding constants of alkali metal ions were in the order to Li < Na < K, and alkali metal ions were formed 1 : 1 complexes with ligands of DBPDA ion exchanger. Also, $K_b$ was found to depend on the variables such as solvent and temperature. The binding constants for the complexes were obtained in the ranges of $2{\times}10^3{\sim}4{\times}10^4M^{-1}$. In order to obtain the enthalpy (${\Delta}$H) and entropy changes (${\Delta}$S)n the complexation process, Kb were plotted against the temperature in the ranges of 10∼40$^{\circ}C$ according to the van't Hoff theory. Enthalphy and entropy changes were found in the ranges of -2.71∼-3.79 kcal/mol, and -16.52∼-20.57 eu, respectively.
