Extraction-spectrophotometric determination of iron with 2-(2′-benzothiazolylazo)-4,6-dimethylphenol

An extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of iron based on its extraction into chloroform with 2-(2-benzothiazolylazo)-4,6-dimethylphenol (BTADMP) from a pH 6.5 medium has been developed. The extracted 12 FeBTADMP complex species allow the determination of 4–30gmg of iron (=3.92×10⁴1·mol^–1·cm^–1 at 790 nm). The method is highly selective and has been applied to the determination of iron in polymineral-polyvitamin pharmaceutical products.

Studies on mixed ligand complexes involving ligands of biological importance [Ni(II), Zn(II) or Cd(II)-1,10-phenanthroline — or 2,2′-bipyridyl-histidine]

The formation of mixed ligand complexes of the title metal ions with 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) or 2,2-bipyridyl (Bipy) in presence of histidine (His) has been studied pH-metrically. The stepwise formation of 111 mixed ligand complexes has been inferred from the potentiometric titration curves. Initially, a 11 metal—Phen or—Bipy complex is formed in the lower buffer region and then the addition ofHis takes place resulting in 111 ternary complex formation. The formation constants (K _MAL ) of the resulting mixed ligand complexes have been calculated at 30±1°C (=0.1 KNO₃) and the values have been found to be higher than the formation constants of 12 and lower than those of 11 metal—His complexes. The order of stability in terms of metal ions follows the order, Ni(II)>Zn(II)>Cd(II).With 2 Figures

Reactivity of oxalates of La(III), Ba(II) and Cu(II) in ternary mixtures

Composites of cuprates of La(III) and Ba(II) were obtained by decomposing mixtures of oxalates of La(III), Ba(II) and Cu(II) prepared in 111 and 123 mol proportions respectively and sintering the oxide products at 1173 K. Reactions studied by TG, DTA and XRD techniques revealed the following features: (i) Decomposition of oxalates of La(III) and Ba(II) is drastically affected in mixtures. Decomposition temperature of organic part in the former (111) is shifted by 100 K while that of BaCO₃ in the case of latter (123) is shifted by 400 K towards lower temperature side. (ii) All exothermic peaks on DTA traces of both the mixtures are allotted to the decomposition of oxalates to Cu₂O, La₂O₂CO₃ and BaCO₃ phases while endothermic peaks around 863 and 1083 K are assigned for BaCuO₂ and La₂CuO₄ phases respectively in the case of former (111) and endothermic peaks at about 1068, 1136 and 1213 K are correlated with BaCuO₂, a composite of La₂O₃, La₂CuO₄ and La_0.5Ba_0.5CuO_3– (0.5) phases and LaBa₂Cu₃O_7– (0) phase respectively in the case of latter (123) and (iii) Lines of all cuprate compounds appear in XRD patterns of those samples preheated at temperatures 873 K. The following reaction is proposed in the case of 123 mixture: Authors are deeply thankful to the Authorities of Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Goverment of India, for providing the funds for research project and to Professor A.

Simultaneous determination of iron(III) and cobalt(II) withN-phenylcinnamohydroxamic acid and thiocyanate by extraction and spectrophotometry

Simple, precise, sensitive, and highly selective methods for the separate determination of iron(III) and cobalt(II) and for the simultaneous determination of both metal ions are described. Iron(III) and cobalt(II) react with thiocyanate in the presence ofN-phenylcinnamohydroxamic acid (PCHA) to form pinkish red and blue coloured complexes, respectively. Both the iron(III) and cobalt(II) complexes having stoichiometric composition of 122 (FeSCN^–PCHA) and 14 (CoSCN^–), respectively, are quantitatively extractable into ethylacetate from 0.5–1.5 M hydrochloric acid solutions. The spectra of iron(III) and cobalt(II) complexes in the visible region exhibit absorption maxima at 495 and 625 nm, respectively. The coloured systems obey Beer's law in the concentration range of 0.2–4.0g/ml of iron and 2–40g/ml of cobalt. The effects of foreign ions and of various experimental parameters were studied to establish the optimum conditions for the extraction and determination of iron and cobalt. The methods have been applied successfully to the analysis of blood, vitamin B₁₂, and standard steels for iron and cobalt.

Spectrophotometric study of the reaction of Co(II) and Ni(II) with nitroso-R-salt and α-nitroso-β-naphthol

The complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) with nitroso-R-salt are studied by conductometric titration and spectrophotometric methods in buffer solutions of differentpH. The study proved the possible formation of (11), (12) and (13) complexes for Co(II) while Ni(II) forms (11) and (12) complexes (metal:ligand) only. The factors affecting complex formation are established and the formation constants of the complexes are evaluated. The ir spectra of the solid complexes with -nitroso--naphthol revealed that the ligand exhibits the nitrosophenol structure and that the reaction takes place through proton displacement from the OH-group.
