A rapid spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace level lead using 1,5-diphenylthiocarbazone in aqueous micellar solutions.

A very simple, ultra-sensitive and fairly selective direct spectrophotmetric method is presented for the rapid determination of lead(II) at ultra-trace level using 1,5-diphenylthiocarbazone (dithizone) in micellar media. The presence of the micellar system avoids the previous steps of solvent extraction and reduces the cost and toxicity while enhancing the sensitivity, selectivity and the molar absorptivity. The molar absorptivities of the lead-dithizone complex formed in the presence of the cationic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactants are almost ten times the value observed in the standard method, resulting in an increase in the sensitivity of the method. The reaction is instantaneous and the absorbance remains stable for over 24 h. The average molar absorption coefficient was found to be 3.99 x 10(5) L mol(-1) cm(-1) and Sandell's sensitivity was 30 ng cm(-2) of Pb. Linear calibration graphs were obtained for 0.06-60 mg L(-1) of Pb(II); the stoichiometric composition of the chelate is 1:2 (Pb:dithizone). The interference from over 50 cations, anions and complexing agents has been studied at 1 mg L(-1) of Pb(II). The method was successfully used in the determination of lead in several standard reference materials (alloys and steels), environmental water samples (potable and polluted), biological samples (human blood and urine), soil samples and solutions containing both lead(II) and lead(IV) and complex synthetic mixtures. The method has high precision and accuracy (sigma = +/-0.01 for 0.5 mg L(-1)).

Beta-correction spectrophotometric investigation of cadmium complexation with New Ligand, 2,4-dibromo-6-caboxybenzenediazoaminoazobenzene and determination of trace amounts of cadmium in wastewater

The synthesis of new ligand, 2,4-dibromo-6-caboxybenzenediazoaminoazobenzene (DBCBAA) was carried out and was used to develop sensitive reaction with cadmium (II) in a basic solution. The surfactants, emulsifier OP and sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), may both increase the sensitivity and the solubility of Cd-DBCBAA complex. Because of the strong interference of excess of ligand, the conventional spectrophotometry was limited for use. The current principle, named Β-correction theory has been applied instead of single wavelength method because it can eliminate the above interference. Such a method can give the simple determination of complex characteristic factors such as the complex ratio, real molar absorptivity (ε) and step or cumulative stability constant (K). Results showed that the two formed Cd-DBCBAA complexes were both expressed as Cd(DBCBAA)₄ at pH 12.5, their real not apparent absorptivities were first to be determined equal to 1.85 x 10⁵ L mol^-1 cm^-1 in the presence of OP at 520 nm and 2.05 x 10⁵ L mol^-1 cm^-1 in the presence of SDBS at 530 nm and the cumulative stability constants of complexes equaled 4.90 x 10²², and 8.64 x 10²² respectively. For analysis of wastewater samples, the detection limit of cadmium was 0.004 mg/L and the recoveries between 92.0 and 107% with the relative standard deviations of less than 4.0%. This article was submitted by the authors in English.     

Spectrophotometric determination of trace amounts of cadmium and zinc in waste water with 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol and mixed ionic and non-ionic surfactants

A spectrophotometric method for determination of trace amounts of cadmium and zinc in waste water with PAR and mixed ionic and non-ionic surfactants is described. The interferences of foreign ions can be eliminated by masking with a mixture of triethanolamine, potassium fluoride, ethylenediamine and sodium hexametaphosphate. By virtue of the difference between the absorbances before and after addition of a little sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, cadmium and zinc can be determined directly in aqueous solution without separation. Beer's law is obeyed for 0-20 microg of Cd or 0-12 microg of Zn in 25 ml of solution. The apparent molar absorptivities at 505 nm are 8.65 x 10(4) l.mole(-1).cm(-1) for Cd and 8.21 x 10(4) l.mole(-1).cm(-1) for Zn. Results obtained by applying the proposed method to waste-water samples agree well with those obtained by atomic-absorption spectrophotometry.     

Optical and chromaticity parameters of transition metal complexes with 1-nitroso-2-naphthol-3,6-disulfonic acid in the presence of surfactants

Optimal conditions for the complexation of transition metal ions [Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II, III), and Fe(II, III)] with 1-nitroso-2-naphthol-2,6-disulfonic acid have been determined by spectrophotometry in the presence of cationic (cetylpyridinium and cetyltrimethylammonium bromides) and nonionic (OP-10, neonol) surfactants. The introduction of nonionic surfactants does not influence the optical parameters of the system, while the introduction of cationic ones leads to hyperchromic and hypsochromic (for the system Fe(III)-NRS-surfactant) effects. The stoichiometric ratios determined by the method of isomolar series and treatment of the saturation curves of cationic surfactants at pH 4.0 are Me(II): R: surfactant = 1: 2: 4, Me(III): R: surfactant = 1: 3: 6. The molar absorption coefficients and chromaticity parameters of ternary complexes have been determined. A 2–5-fold increase in the molar absorption coefficients and chromaticity functions as compared to binary systems has been revealed.     

Color Reaction Between 4-(2-Pyridylazo)Resorcinol and Mercury (II) in the Presence of Surfactant,and Improved Spectrophotometric Determinations of Mercury(II) and Cyanide Ion with its Coloring

Abstract

The reactions among 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR), mercury(II) and/or cyanide ion in the presence of water soluble surfactants alone or combination were systematically investigated at about pH 9. The spectrophotometric determinations of mercury(II) and cyanide ion were investigated by using the PAR-mercury(II)-HPC complex (3:2:2 molar ratio) in the presence of N-hexadecylpyridinium chloride (HPC) alone; calibration graphs were rectilinear in the ranges of 0 – 40 μg mercury(II) and 0 –10 μg cyanide ion in a final 10 ml with the apparent molar absorptivities of 5.9 × 10⁴ for mercury(II) and 2.5 × 10⁴ 1 mol^?1 cm^?1 for cyanide ion at 590 nm. The proposed method had advantages—rapidity, simplicity without solvent extraction, and sensitivity in comparison with reported solvent extraction methods. The interference of foreign ions decreased 1/2–l//4-fold compared with that in the presence of non-ionic surfactant alone.     

Manual and fia methods for the determination of cadmium with malachite green and iodide

A sensitive and rapid spectrophotometric method for the determination of cadmium is described, based on the formation of a blue complex at pH 4 between the anionic iodide complex of cadmium(II) and Malachite Green; the colour is stabilized with poly(vinyl alcohol). The calibration graph for measurement at 685 nm is linear over the range 1-50 mug of cadmium per 25 ml of final solution, with a relative standard deviation of +/-1.7% for 1 mug/ml cadmium. The molar absorptivity is 6.1 x 10(4) 1.mole(-1).cm(-1). The method can be successfully adapted for FIA, the peak height being proportional to the cadmium concentration over the range 0.1-3 mug/ml; a two-channel manifold is used and an improvement in selectivity is obtained. The use of a gradient tube is demonstrated to give a good calibration for Cd(II) over the range 2 x 10(-2) -2 x 10(-6)M.     

显色剂结构与胶束增敏作用的关系 II: Cadion, Cadion 2B的比较

本文从表明活性剂对Cd(II)-Cadion 和Cd(II)-Cadion 2B作用的不同, 研究了有机显色剂分子结构与胶束增敏作用的关系, 发现在无表面活性剂存在时,Cd(II)-Cadion 2B的灵敏度高于Cd(II)-Cadion, 当加入适量表面活性剂后, Cadion体系的增敏效应有如下顺序: SDBS〉混合表面活性剂〉SDS。阳离子表面活性剂无增敏效应。以Triton X-100为例, 分别测定了显色剂及其配合物所在胶束微环境中的D~e~f~f在胶束中的分配系数, 还另用分光光度法和析相法探求增溶位。结果表明: (1)具有两亲结构的被增溶物增溶于胶束的栅状层, 其能否进入栅状层及进入栅状层的深浅, 决定于被增溶物分子的横断面的大小和两亲结构明显程度。(2)在胶束栅状层, 受"刚性不对称微环境"的作用产生增敏作用。(3)从研究Cd(II)-Cadion和Cd(II)-Cadion 2B的分子结构表明: Cd(II)-Cadion 2B的横断面大于Cd(II)-Cadion, 而两亲结构又比Cd(II)-Cadion 不明显, 这是Cd(II)-Cadion 2B胶束增敏率小于Cd(II)-Cadion的主要原因。     

A study of the spectrophotometric determination of traces of cadmium(II) and copper(II) with 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol in the presence of polyglycol octylphenyl ether

A spectrophotometric study of the Cd(II) and Cu(II) complex of a new reagent, 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylamino phenol (5-Br-PADAP) in the presence of polyglycol octylphenyl ether (OP) is presented. A reddish binary complex is formed at pH 9 and shows maximal absorbance at 560 nm with molar absorptivity of 1.16 × 10⁵ · mol⁻¹ · cm⁻¹ liter (Cd), 1.5 × 10⁵ mol⁻¹ · cm⁻¹ · liter (Cu). Beer's law is followed over the range 0.0 to 20 μg cadmium(II) and 0.0–18 μg copper(II). The continuous variation method and molar ratio method showed that the metal ligand ratio is 1:2; ordinarily, most ions do not interfere with the determination and the method can be applied for direct spectrophotometric determination of cadmium(II) and copper(II) in actual samples and the results obtained are satisfactory.     

Surfactant effects on the spectrophotometry of the gadolinium—chrome azurols complex

Increased molar absorptivities and red-shifted absorbance maxima were noted only upon the addition of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), a cationic surfactant. A 1:2:4 gadolinium/chrome azurol S/CPC complex was forned but dissociated at [CPC]/ [Gd³⁺] > 4 apparently because gadolinim(III) was displaced from this complex by additional surfactant monomers. Ternary complexes having different stoichiometries formed in the presence of excess dye. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), an anionic suffactant, induced dissociation of the binary complex at micellar concentrations, suggesting that dissociation resulted from adsorption of Gd³⁺ cations on the negatively charged micellar surface. Addition of Triton X-100, a nonionic surfactant, had little effect at either micellar or submicellar concentrations. These results confirm that complex stability is an important factor in the use of surfactants as sensitizers in quantitative spectrophotometry.     

A kinetic method for the determination of zinc(II) in presence of a large excess of cadmium(II) by the different dissociation rate of their complexes with 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine

Summary Acid-dissociation reaction of the cadmium(II) complex of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphme (H₂tspp) proceeds about 10¹² times as fast as that of the zinc(II) complex. This provides the basis for a kinetic determination of zinc(II) in presence of a large excess of cadmium (II). The absorbance at soret-band (421 nm) of Zn(II)(tspp) was used to monitor the reaction. At 5.0×10^–2 M hydrogen ion concentration, Cd(II)(tspp) dissociates completely to Cd²⁺ in 1 s and only the reaction associated with Zn(II)(tspp) is observed during the reaction time from 30 s to 5 min. Zinc(II) concentration <10^–6 M is determined in the presence of 10^–2 M cadmium(II). The molar absorption coefficient is 2.7×10⁵ M ^–1 cm^–1. Iron(III), aluminum(III) and cobalt(II) being masked sodium tartrate, this method is highly selective and is free from interferences of most substances usually encountered. The method was applied to determine zinc(II) in tap water and in cadmium(II) sulfate.     

Synthesis and spectral characterization of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes of acetone-N(4)-phenylsemicarbazone: Crystal structures of acetone-N(4)-phenylsemicarbazone and a cadmium(II) complex

Seven Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes of ON donor acetone-N(4)-phenylsemicarbazone (HL) have been synthesized and physico-chemically characterized by partial elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, infrared, electronic and ¹H NMR spectral studies. The semicarbazone binds the metal as a neutral bidentate ligand in all the complexes. The crystal structures of acetone-N(4)-phenylsemicarbazone and [Cd(HL)₂Cl₂] have been determined by X-ray diffraction studies. The coordination geometry around cadmium(II) in the complex [Cd(HL)₂Cl₂] is distorted octahedral.

Characterization and analytical application of the ion-association complex crystal violet-cadmium bromopyrogallol red

In the presence of polyvinylalcohol (PVA-124) and polyethylene glycol monooctylphenyl ether (emulsifier OP), cadmium ions(II) can form a colour ion-association complex with both Bromopyrogallol Red (BPR) and Crystal Violet (CV). In the NH(3)NH(4)Cl medium, the ion-association complex has a composition of Cd:BPR:CV = 1:1:2, and its corresponding molecular formula is [CV](2)[Cd(BPR)]. The maximum absorption of the colour complex is located at 654 nm with an apparent molar absorptivity of 1.79 x 10(5) l.mole(-1).cm(-1). Beer's law is obeyed for cadmium over the range 0-10 mug/25 ml. A highly sensitive spectrophotometric method for trace cadmium in water and zinc was developed with good precision and accuracy. The mechanism of the reaction is also discussed.

Sensitive spectrophotometric determination of gallium with bromopyrogallol red in the presence of surfactants

Gallium in the presence of surfactants (NTGE and CTA) forms with BPR a violet ternary complexes with λ_max at 615 and 625 nm, respectively, with molar absorptivities of 7.0 × 10⁴ and 1.3 × 10⁵ liters mol^?1 cm^?1. These complexes can be advantageously used for the determination of gallium. The molar ratio of gallium to BPR, which is 1:1 in the binary complex, increases to 1:3 in the ternary complex. The presence of surfactants changes the number of BPR molecules bonded to gallium. This is the main factor in the increase in color intensity. Numerous metals interfere. Gallium can be separated by extraction of gallium from 7 M hydrochloric acid with diisopropyl ether.     

Spectrophotometric Determination of Nickel(II) with O-hydroxyhydroquinonephthalein in the Mixed Micellar Media of Zephiramine and Tween 20

Abstract

The effect of mixed surfactants on the color reaction between nickel(II) and o-hydroxyhydroquinonephthalein(Qnph) was examined in weakly basic media. The color development of the metal complex in the presence of cationic and nonionic surfactants (mixed micellar media of Zephiramine (Zp) and Tween 20) was very stable and exhibited a high and reproducible absorbance. The calibration curve was linear in the ranges of 0 – 7.0 μg nickel(I1) in a final volume of 10 ml at 545 or 536 nm. The method developed does not require an organic solvent extraction step. The apparent molar absorptivity and Sandell sensitivity were 1.26 × 10⁵ 1 per mol per crn and 0.0045 μg per cmL nickel(II), respectively, at 545 nm.     

Disposable Nafion-modified micro-fabricated bismuth-film sensors for voltammetric stripping analysis of trace metals in the presence of surfactants

This work is a study of the analytical utility of Nafion-modified microfabricated bismuth film electrodes (BiFEs) for the determination of Pb(II) and Cd(II) by anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) in the presence of surfactants. Micro-fabricated BiFEs were prepared by depositing a thin film of bismuth on the surface of a silicon substrate by sputtering while the two-dimensional geometry of the final sensors was defined by photolithography. The BiFEs were further drop-coated with a Nafion film. These devices were applied to the determination of Pb(II) and Cd(II) by square wave ASV (SWASV) in the presence of Triton X-100 (a non-ionic surfactant), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) (a cationic surfactant) and sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) (an anionic surfactant). It was found that the presence of Nafion afforded an increase in sensitivity and the tolerance against surfactants but these properties were severely influenced by both the thickness of the Nafion film and the nature of the interfering surfactant. Using a Nafion of 0.4 μm thickness and 120 s of preconcentration, the repeatability (expressed as the % relative standard deviation on the same sensor (n = 8)) at the 20 μg l⁻¹ level was 3.8% for Pb(II) and 3.1% for Cd(II) and the limits of detection were 0.5 μg l⁻¹ for Cd(II) and Pb(II). The sensors were applied to Cd(II) and Pb(II) determination in a certified lake-water sample.     

Bismuth Film Microelectrode Modified with Overoxidized Poly‐1‐Naphtylamine Protective Membrane for Enhanced Stripping Voltammetric Detection

The application of protective overoxidized poly‐1‐naphtylamine membrane (ONAP) is demonstrated in combination with bismuth film microelectrode (ONAP‐BiFME) for anodic stripping voltammetric measurement of trace heavy metals in the presence of some selected surfactants. The ONAP membrane was electrochemically deposited on the surface of bare single carbon fiber microelectrode followed by the in situ or ex situ preparation of the bismuth film. The key operational parameters influencing the stripping performance of the ONAP‐BiFME were optimized and its electroanalytical performance was examined in the model solution containing Cd(II) and Pb(II) as test metal ions. The ONAP‐BiFME exhibited significantly enhanced stripping voltammetric response (approximately 70% for Cd(II) and 45% for Pb(II)) in comparison with unmodified BiFME in the absence of surfactants. In the presence of high concentrations, e.g., 20 mg L^?1, of anionic or cationic surfactants, the stripping signal for, e.g., Cd(II) decreased for less than 6% at the ONAP‐BiFME, whereas at the unmodified BiFME the signal attenuated considerably (approximately 38%). Moreover, in the presence of 10 mg L^?1 of nonionic surfactant Triton X‐100, the stripping signals at the bare BiFME were almost completely suppressed, whereas at the ONAP‐BiFME exhibited linear concentration behavior in the examined concentration range from 10 to 120 μg L^?1, with the calculated limit of detection of 5.0 μg L^?1 and 3.4 μg L^?1 for Cd(II) and Pb(II), respectively in connection with 60 s accumulation time. The attractive behavior of ONAP‐modified BiFME expands the applicability of bismuth‐based electrodes for measurement of trace heavy metals in real environments, where the presence of more complex matrix can be expected.
