Spectrophotometric determination of molybdenum(VI)

Molybdenum(IV) gives a red colour with ammonium thiocyanate in 5-8M hydrochloric acid medium, the Sandell sensitivity index being 0.018 ppm Mo(VI)/cm(2). Molybdenum(VI) in 4-7M hydrochloric acid medium forms a red complex with ethyl xanthate and ammonium thiocyanate and this can be extracted into acetophenone. Beer's law is obeyed over the range of 1.2-13.8 ppm, and the Sandell indices at 370 and 470 nm are 0.0016 and 0.0068 ppm/cm(2) respectively. The colour is stable for 40 hr. Most cations do not interfere.

Spectrophotometric determination of molybdenum(vi) with benzoylacetanilide

Abstract

The complex formed between molybdenum(VI) and benzoylacetanilide in the pH range 0.6 and 1.9 has been extracted into methyl isobutyl ketone and the absorbance has been measured at 410 mμ. Quantities of 0.15 to 2.10 mg of molybdenum have been determined with a standard deviation of 0.6%. The color is stable up to 2 hours. The presence of Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Zn²⁺, Mn²⁺, Be²⁺, Al³⁺, Cr³⁺, Ce⁴⁺, Th⁴⁺ or UO²⁺ ₂ up to 100 μg causes no interference. Ordinarily, Fe³⁺ interferes with the determination, but when masked with 1 ml of 0.5% solution of ascorbic acid the tolerance limit is 10 mg. Thus, molybdenum can be determined in steel when present in amounts as low as 0.26%.

Spectrophotometric determination of molybdenum based on charge transfer complexes sensitized by copper(II)

A new high sensitive spectrophotometric determination of trace molybdenum was investigated. The sensitivity of the determination of molybdenum, which based on the color charge transfer complex of molybdotungstophosphate-3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine, was greatly enhanced by copper(II) ions in the presence of polyvinyl alcohol. The improved method maintained the features of simplicity, rapidity and selectivity, especially eliminating the interference from tungsten. Under the optimum conditions, Beer's law was obeyed over the range from 2 to 32 ng ml⁻¹ molybdenum with molar absorptivity being 4.92×10⁵ l mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹ at 660 nm. The relative standard deviation was 1.2% under nine determinations for 16 ng ml⁻¹ Mo(VI). The present method had been applied to the determination of trace molybdenum in tungsten ores with satisfactory results.
