Abstract

Spectrophotometric procedure is described for the quantitative determination of diphenadione [2-(diphenylacetyl)-1,3-indandione], based on direct spectrophotometric measurements of the absorbances of its iron (III), iron (II) and cobalt (II), metal complexes at 488 nm, 505 nm and (334 nm, 372 nm), respectively. The drug reacts with metals in the ratio of 3:1 and 2:1 for iron (III) and for both iron (II) and cobalt (II) respectively. The obtained complexes have apparent molar absorptivities of 1.48 × 10³ 1 mol^?1 cm^?1, 0.714 × 10³ 1 mol^?1cm^?1 and (1.70 × 10³ 1 mol^?1cm^?1, 1.93 × 10³ 1 mol^?1cm^?1) for iron (III), iron (II) and cobalt (II) complexes, respectively. The procedure is suggested for the determination of 51–400 μg.ml^?1 diphenadione via the iron (II) complex and 35–170 μg.ml^?1 diphenadione via both cobalt (II) and iron (III) complexes. The suggested procedure has accuracies of 99.79 ± 0.67%, 99.64 ± 0.37% and (100.09 ± 0.53%, 99.99 ± 0.42%) for the metal complexes of iron (III), iron (II) and cobalt (II), respectively.     

Spectrophotometric studies on complexation reactions of some water-soluble 5-nitro-2-pyridylhydrazones with cobalt. Spectrophotometric and derivative spectrophotometric determination of trace cobalt with 2-benzimidazolyl-3-sulphophenylmethanone 5-nitro-2-pyridylhydrazone

The complexation reactions of four water-soluble hydrazones, 2-quinolyl-3-sulphophenylmethanone 5-nitro-2-pyridylhydrazone, 3-sulphophenyl-2-thiazolylmethanone 5-nitro-2-pyridylhydrazone (STNPH), 2-benzothiazolyl-3-sulphophenylmethanone 5-nitro-2-pyridylhydrazone and 2-benzimidazolyl-3-sulphophenylmethanone 5-nitro-2-pyridylhydrazone (BISNPH), with cobalt(II) were studied spectrophotometrically. These hydrazones react with cobalt(II) to form stable 1:2 (metal:ligand) complexes, except for STNPH, which forms a 1:1 complex, with high molar absorptivities. A sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method for the determination of cobalt with BISNPH has been developed. The cobalt(II)-BISNPH complex is formed quantitatively in the pH range 2.7–9.4 and oxidized rapidly to give the corresponding cobalt(III) complex with an absorption maximum at 517 nm. Beer's law is obeyed over the range 0.02–1.0 μg ml^?1 and the apparent molar absorptivity of the cobalt(III) complex is 6.65 × 10⁴ l mol^?1 cm^?1 at 517 nm. The method was applied to the determination of cobalt in iron and steel samples with satisfactory results. The sensitivity is increased 11-fold by use of second-derivative spectrophotometry.     

Simultaneous Determination of Nickel and cobalt in Manganese Sulphate Electrolyte by DMGH2-Sensitized Differential Pulse Polarography

Abstract

A method is described for the simultaneous determination of nickel and cobalt in manganese sulphate electrolyte by the dimethylglyoxime (DMGH₂) sensitized differential pulse polarography. The high manganese sulphate background (1.2M) in the concentrated process plant electrolyte interferes only with the nickel determination and precludes its direct determination. A 50% v/v dilution and an excessive amount (2 × 10^?3M) of the chelating agent are required at pH7.7 for the reliable determination of both elements. Under these conditions, the linear concentration ranges are 0-110 μg/1 for nickel and 0-140 μg/1 for cobalt. The minimum detectable amounts above the levels present in the process plant electrolyte are 2 μg/1 and 1 μg/1 for both elements, respectively. The relative standard deviations for all measurements are between 1 and 3%.     

Application of the Bismuth Film Electrode for Catalytic Adsorptive Stripping Potentiometric Determination of Cobalt in Dimethylglyoxime‐Nitrite System

Abstract

The application of bismuth film electrodes to the determination of cobalt by constant current adsorptive stripping potentiometry with exploitation of a catalytic effect is presented. The addition of NaNO₂ to the solution containing ammonia buffer and dimethylglyoxime results in a 25‐fold enhancement of the adsorptive stripping potentiometric cobalt signal. Several key parameters of the potentiometric stripping mode were optimized, including the composition of the supporting electrolyte, the stripping current, the accumulation potential, and the accumulation time. The optimized procedure yields favorable and highly stable stripping responses with good precision (RSD=1.4% for a Co concentration of 2 µg L^?1), low detection limit (0.07 µg L^?1), and good linearity (up to 10 µg L^?1, R²=0.998) with a deposition time of 60 s and a stripping current of 10 µA. The method enables the determination of Co in the presence of high excesses of Ni or Zn.     

Catalytic Square-Wave Voltammetric Determination of Acrylamide in Potato Chips

Abstract

Square-wave voltammetry is a fast technique used for determination of trace amounts of acrylamide. When cobalt(II) ions were added to the acrylamide solution, a catalytic peak at about ?1.35 V vs. Ag/AgCl was observed, which was proportional to acrylamide concentration. The calibration curve showed good linearity in the range of 200–800 ng mL^?1 of acrylamide with a regression coefficient of 0.9989. The limit of detection of the method was 3.52 ng mL^?1, and the relative standard deviations for concentrations of 300 ng mL^?1 and 700 ng mL^?1 were 99.8% × 10^?2 and 79.7% × 10^?2, respectively.

Chemiluminescent Determination of Vitamin B12 Using Charge Coupled Device (CCD)

A method was developed for the determination of vitamin B₁₂ based on the enhancement of cobalt (II) on the chemiluminescence (CL) reaction between luminol and percarbonate (powerful source of hydrogen peroxide). The release of cobalt (II) from the vitamin B₁₂ was reached by a simple and fast microwave digestion (20 s microwave digestion time and a mix of nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide). A charge coupled device (CCD) photodetector, directly connected to the cell, coupled with a simple continuous flow system was used to obtain the full spectral characteristics of cobalt (II) catalyzed luminol-percarbonate reaction.

The optima experimental conditions were established: 8.0 m mol L^?1 luminol in a 0.075 mol L^?1 carbonate buffer (pH 10.0) and 0.15 mol L^?1 sodium percarbonate, in addition to others experimental parameters as 0.33 mL s^?1 flow rate and 2 s integration time, were the experimental conditions which proportionate the optimum CL emission intensity. The emission data were best fitted with a second-order calibration graph over the cobalt (II) concentration range from 4.00 to 300 µ g L^?1 (r² = 0.9990), with a detection limit of 0.42 µ g L^?1. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of vitamin B₁₂ in pharmaceuticals.

Tetradecyldimethylbenzylammonium thiocyanate adsorbent supported on naphthalene for the preconcentration and determination of cobalt in aluminium alloys and steels using atomic absorption spectrometry

A solid ion-pair material produced from tetradecyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride (TDBA) and ammonium thiocyanate on naphthalene provides a simple, rapid and selective technique of preconcentrating cobalt from up to 200 ml of aqueous solution. Cobalt reacts with sodium 1-nitroso-2-naphthol-3,6-disulphonate (nitroso-R salt) to form a brown, water-soluble chelate anion. The chelate anion forms a water-insoluble Co-nitroso-R salt-TDBA complex on naphthalene packed in a column and trace cobalt is quantitatively retained on the naphthalene in the pH range 2.7–11.0 at a flow-rate of 2 ml min^?1. The solid mass is stripped from the column with 5 ml of dimethylformamide (DMF) and cobalt is measured by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) at 241 nm. The calibration graph is linear over the concentration range 0.5–15μg Co in 5 ml of dimethylformamide solution. Seven replicate determinations of 9 μg of cobalt gave a mean absorbance of 0.095 with a relative standard deviation of 1.7%. The sensitivity for 1% absorption was 0.0834μg ml^?1 (0.240 μg ml^?1 for direct AAS on the aqueous solution). The proposed method was utilized for the determination of cobalt in standard aluminium alloys and steel samples.
