Abstract

The complex formation reaction between iron(III) and 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol(PAR) in the presence of various water soluble surfactants((N-hexadecylpyridinium chloride (HPC), poly(vinylalcohol)(PVA), sodium dodecylsulfate(SDS), sodium N-lauroylsarcosine(SL)) alone or in combination at weakly acidic media was systematically investigated. An improved and more sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of iron was proposed by zero-order and third-derivative spectrophotometry using the PAR-iron(III)-HPC ternary complex system at about pH 5.2. The calibration curve was rectilinear in the ranges of 0 – 15.0 μg iron(III) in a final 10-ml on the zero-order spectrophotometry. Also, upon the third-derivative spectrophotometry, Beer's law was obeyed in the range of 0 – 8.0 μg iron(III)/10 ml by measuring the distance between the absorbance peak(λ₁ = 527 nm) and the valley (λ₂ = 560 nm). The apparent molar absorptivity was 4.8 × 10⁴ 1 mol^?1 cm^?1 in zero-order spectrophotometry, and 1.36 × 10⁵ mol^?1 cm^?1 in third-derivative spectrophotometry. The effect of foreign ions was decreased within ½ – ¼-fold in comparison with the method in the presence of PVA without HPC. Especially, the third-derivative spectrophotometric method was sensitive and selective, and made possible to assay mixed sample solution containing iron(III) and copper(II), etc.

A simple sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of atrazine in herbicide formulations and real samples. The method was based on the reaction of atrazine with pyridine to form a quaternary halide which in the presence of alkali forms a carbinol base.
