Sensitive spectrophotometric determination of La(III) with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol

A simple and sensitive method for spectrophotometric determination of lanthanum has been developed. At pH 9.6, in presence of 50% ethanol, lanthanum reacts with 1-(-2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) to form a red complex which has two absorption maxima, at 545 and 510 nm. The molar absorptivity at 545 nm is 0.55 × 10⁴ liters · mol^?1 cm^?1. On the other hand, lanthanum reacts with PAN in pure ethanol to form a red complex at 530 nm, with high molar absorptivity (8 × 10⁴ liters · mol^?1 cm^?1).     

Rapid spectrophotometric determination of thorium(IV) with 1-(2′-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol

Thorium(IV) reacts with 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol (TAN) in the presence of antipyrine to form a sparingly soluble red-coloured chelate, soluble in 36% methanol (v/v). Complexation takes place instantaneously at pH 2.4–2.8, maintained by glycine buffer. Antipyrine is found to enhance sensitivity of the complex, which is stable for 19 hours. The 12 complex exhibits maximum absorbance at 555 nm, obyes Beer's law in the concentration range from 0.32 to 6.56 g of thorium(IV) per ml, has a molar absorptivity of 3.14·10⁴ dm³/mol^–1·cm^–1 and a Sandel sensitivity of 7.4 ng·cm^–2. The formation constant (log K) is found to be 8.62 and 8.45. Interference of 57 anions and cations in the determination of thorium(IV) has been studied. From ten repeated determinations, the coefficient of variation was found to be ±0.98%. The method was successfully applied for determination of thorium content in a sample of monazite.

Simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of Zinc(II) and Nickel(II) with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol

A new procedure for the simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of Zn(II) and Ni(II) with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol as chromogenic reagent has been developed. It is based on resolution of the mixed spectrum over the wavelength range 530–590 nm by applying a least-squares fitting program to standard spectra from each component. The spectra are recorded at an apparent pH of 5.0, provided by an acetate buffer in a mixed 6040 v/v 2-ethoxyethanol/water medium. The relative standard deviations for determination of 13.7 g of Ni and 31.0 g of Zn were 1.9 and 1.0%, respectively (8 replications). The method has been applied to the analysis of iron surfaces coated with a Zn-Ni alloy. The results are compared with those obtained by atomic-absorption spectrophotometry.

Colorimetric determination of zirconium with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol

A method is described for the determination of as little as 50 ppm of zirconium in uranium-fission element alloys and zinc magnesium-uranium-fission element alloys. Zirconium is extracted from a nitric acid-aluminium nitrate medium with dibutyl phosphate in toluene. The uranium co-extracted with the zirconium is removed by scrubbing with hydrochloric acid-ammonium thiocyanate solution. A portion of the organic phase is mixed with pyridine-toluene solution of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol to develop the colour.

Solvent extraction of certain rare earth metal ions with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN)

The solvent extraction of Yb(III) by 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN or HL) in carbon tetrachloride from aqueous—ethanol phase has been investigated as a function of thepH ^X of the polar phase and the concentrations ofPAN or ethanol (EtOH) in the organic phase. It was confirmed that the addition of ethanol to the aqueous phase causes an increase of the Yb(III) distribution coefficient. The equation for the extraction reaction has been suggested as: $$Yb(H_2 O)_{m(^p )}^{3 + } + 3H L_{(o)} + t Et OH_{(o)} \rightleftharpoons Yb L_3 \left( {EtOH} \right)_{t(o)} + 3H_{(^p )}^ + + mH_2 O$$ wheret changes from 0 to 3. The extraction equilibrium constant (K _ex ) and two-phase stability constants (β ₃ ^× ) for the YbL ₃ (EtOH)₃ complex have been evaluated. The formation of solvates YbL ₃ (EtOH) _t is probably the main reason of the synergistic effect which was observed.

Spectrophotometric determination of cobalt with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol and surfactants

A simple and highly selective spectrophotometric method for the determination of cobalt based upon the rapid reaction with PAN in the presence of surfactants and minute amounts of ammonium persulphate at pH 5.0 is described. The cobalt(III) chelate is made water-soluble by a neutral surfactant. Triton X-100, combined with sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate (DBS). Iron(III), bismuth, tin(IV) and aluminium are masked with oxalate or citrate. Iron(II) must be absent. The other metal-PAN chelates, except that of nickel, are readily decomposed by EDTA. Up to 150 microg of nickel does not interfere. When larger amounts up to 625 microg are present, the absorbance can be corrected by measurements at two wavelengths. In a strongly acid medium (below pH 0.5) the nickel and other metal chelates are completely and instantaneously decomposed, while the cobalt(III) chelate remains unchanged. When, in place of EDTA, several ml of 6M hydrochloric acid are added after the colour development, nickel in quantities up to 1250 microg can be tolerated. A several hundredfold excess of zinc and manganese does not interfere. At 620 nm Beer's law is obeyed over the cobalt concentration range 0.4-3.2 microg/ml. The precision (95% confidence) is +/- 1.0 microg for 100 microg of cobalt. The molar absorptivity is 1.90 x 10(4) l. mole(-1) .cm(-1).
