Spectrophotometric determination of aluminium with chrome azurol s

A comprehensive investigation of the spcctrophotometric determination of aluminium with chrome azurol S is described. No heating is required for colour formation, and the method is considerably more reproducible and selective than either the eriochrome cyanine R or aluminon methods. In the presence of suitable masking agents, only Be²⁺, Zr⁴⁺, and F-cause serious interference. A molar absorptivity of 21,500 at 567.5 mμ was found for the aluminium-chrome azurol S lake, with a relative standard deviation of ± 0.4% at the 20 μg Al level. Beer's law is obeyed from 0 to 1.2 mg Al/ml.     

Spectrophotometric determination of samarium(III) with chrome azurol S in the presence of cetylpyridinium chloride

A sensitive, simple method for the determination of trace amounts of samarium by spectrophotometry is described based on the formation of the samarium-chrome azurol S (CAS) complex in micellar medium. The molar absorptivities of the complexes at pH 7.5 at 505 nm were 3.6x10(4) and 1.4x10(5) l mol(-1) cm(-1) for water media and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), respectively. Beer's law is obeyed from 0.05-2 mg l(-1) of samarium at 505 nm as Sm-CAS-CPC complex. Optimal conditions such as reagent amounts, and pH for the samarium determination were reported. The effects of foreign ions were also investigated. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of samarium contents in synthetic samples.

Flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of aluminium based on chrome azurol S and cetylpyridinium chloride

Acidic aluminium solutions (120 μl) are injected into a buffered (pH 5.7) carrier stream and merge with a chrome azurol S/cetylpyridinium chloride stream; a 2.25-m reaction coil is used with a total flow rate of 4 ml min ^?1. Ethanol (30% v/v) in the reagent stream enhances the absorbance of the ternary complex; the molar absorptivity is then 1.34×10 ⁵ l mol ^?1 cm ^?1 at 625 nm. Calibration is linear over the range 0–400 ng ml^?1 aluminium; the limit of determination is 5 ng ml ^?1. Iron is masked in the usual way; fluoride is tolerated at ˇ1 mg l ^?1. The injection rate is about 45 h^?1. The procedure appears to be applicable to tap water.     

Complex formation of iron (III) with chrome azurol s

The complex formation of iron(IIl) with 3”-sulpho-2”,6”-dichloro-3,3'-dimethyl-4'-hydroxy-fuchson-5,5'-dicarboxylic acid (chrome azurol S) was studied by spectrophotometric, conductometric and potentiometric methods. The pure tetrabasic acid of the ligand was prepared from the impure trisodium salt (commercially availalile), and the dissociation constants of the ligand were redetermined. At 20° ± 1° and in the presence of 0.10 M potassium chloride the dissociation constants were: pk₁ < 0.0, pk₂ = 2.25 ± 0.05, pk₃ = 4.71 ± 0.03 and pk₄ = 11.81 ± 0.03.In the pH range 2–4, four complexes were detected (the absolute stability constants at 20° ± 5° and at an ionic strength of 0.10 M are given in parentheses) : a ring-formed dimer complex [Fe(H₂O)₂]₂Ch₂^2- (log k_2,2 = 36.2); a monomer of composition [Fe(H₂O)₄]HCh or [Fe(H₂O)₄]HCh^- (the absolute stability constant was calculated as log k_1,1 = 15.6 for the latter composition); a complex [Fe(H₂O)₄]₂Ch²⁺ (log k_3.1=20.2) and, finally, a complex of composition [Fe(H₂O)₂]H_xCh₂^x-5 (the value of x being unknown). In addition, hydroxo complexes of the dimer were formed at higher pH values.     

Determination of traces of aluminium with chrome azurol S by solid-phase spectrophotometry

A microdetermination method at sub-mug/1. level for aluminium by solid-phase spectrophotometry has been developed. Chrome azurol S was used as chromogenic reagent to form a blue complex which was easily and strongly sorbed and concentrated on a dextran-type anion-exchange resin. The resin-phase absorbances at 615 and 800 nm were measured directly. Aluminium can be determined in the 0.6-4.0 mug/1. range with a RSD of 2.1%. The method is applied to the determination of aluminium in micaschist, natural and tap water samples.     

Spectrophotometric determination of cationic surfactants by formation of ternary complexes with Fe(III) and chrome azurol

An extraction-free spectrophotometric method for the determination of cationic surfactants, such as cetylpyridinium chloride, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and zephiramine is proposed, which is based on the formation of ternary complexes with Fe(III) and chrome azurol S. The molar ratio of the complex is 2:1:1 (Fe(III):chrome azurol S: cationic surfactant). The method is simple, rapid and sensitive, giving an apparent molar absorptivity of 4.5×10⁴ L·mol^?1-cm^?1 and a linear range of 0.1–6.0 μmol/L cationic surfactants. The total cationic surfactant content can be determined directly in aqueous solutions by measuring the absorbance at 680 nm (pH 5.8). The method has been successfully applied to water samples.     

Spectrophotometric determination of iron(III) with chrome azurol s or eriochrome cyanine r and some cationic surfactants

Sensitive spectrophotometric methods for the determination of iron(III), based on ternary complexes with a triphenylmethane reagent, chrome azurol S (CAS) or eriochrome cyanine R (ECR), and cetyltrimethylammonium (CTA) or cetylpyridinium (CP) ions, are described. For the system Fe—CAS—CTA, the molar absorptivity is 1.35 × 10⁵ l mol^-1 cm^-1 at 645 nm; for Fe—ECR—CTA it is 1.28 × 10⁵ l mol^-1 cm^-1 at 635 nm. Maximum absorbance is attained (at about pH 4) when the molar ratio (to iron) or CAS or ECR is about 20 and that of CTA or CP is 60–80. Citrate, tartrate, oxalate and EDTA interfere. Interference by metals (e.g. Be, Al, Ga, In, Sc, Zr, Th) can be eliminated by preliminary extraction of iron(III) as thiocyanate complex. The method was successfully applied to determining traces of iron in analytical-grade sodium hydroxide.

Development of an optical fibre Al(III) sensor based on immobilised chrome azurol S

Chrome azurol S immobilised on XAD-2 has been used in this study as a reagent phase for the development of an optical fibre Al(III) sensor. Using a kinetic approach, this sensor was able to give a linear response in the Al(III) concentration range of 1.3 x 10(-5)-2.0 x 10(-4) M with a limit of detection of 1.0 x 10(-4) M. The optimum responses were obtained at pH 6.0 and when the solution was stirred. The sensor response was found to have a repeatability and reproducibility of 1.6% and 5.8%, respectively. The results obtained for Al(III) determination in aqueous sample were in good agreement with those obtained using graphite furnace-atomic absorption spectrometry.

Summary A new procedure has been developed for the colorimetric determination of iron(III). It consists in the reduction of iron (III) in dilute sulphuric acid medium (0.1 to 1.0 N) with an excess of hypophosphite (1100) at room temperature using one or two drops of 0.1% PdCl₂ solution as catalyst, and then complexing the reduced iron with 1.10-phenanthroline.Iron (III) can also be reduced with phosphite using the PdCl₂ catalyst and boiling for 5 to 10 min on a hot plate. The molar concentration of phosphite is preferably kept 500 times that of ferric ion.
