Steric and Inductive Effects on Ionic Association in Aqueous Solutions Using an ion Selective Electrode Technique. II. Magnesium Salts

The stoichiometric association constants, K, the thermodynamic association constants, K_A, and the thermodynamic parameters ΔS°, ΔH°, ΔG° for the association between Mg(II) ion with o-, m and p-toluates,o-,m, and p-chlorobenzoates, and o-, m- and p-bromobenzoates have been determined at 15°C, 25°C, 35°C and 45°C in aqueous media. Ion selective electrodes were used to measure the Mg^{2 +} activities. The trends in the association behavior of Mg(II) salts of aromatic acids connot be explained on the basis of steric effects but can be explained according to the trend of the pKa of the parent organic acids, and the Hammett function, σ, of the salts themselves relative to the corresponding benzoate salt.     

A Membrane Sensor for Selective Determination of Bisacodyl in Tablets

A novel PVC membrane sensor for bisacodyl based on bisacodyl‐phosphotungstate ion pair complex was prepared. The influence of membrane composition (i.e. percent of PVC, plasticizer, and ion‐pair complex), pH of test solution and foreign cations on the electrode performance were investigated. The optimized membrane demonstrates Nernstian response (60.3 ± 2.1 mV per decade) for bisacodyl cations over a wide linear range from 8.0 × 10^?5 to 5.0 × 10^?3 M at 25 °C. The potentiometric response is independent from the pH of the solution in the pH range of 1.5–3.5. The proposed sensor has the advantages of easy preparation, good selectivity, fast response time, and small interferences from hydrogen ions. It was successfully used for determination of bisacodyl in tablets, and the results obtained with the electrode were in good agreement with the official chromatographic method.     

Iodide‐Selective Electrode Based on Copper Phthalocyanine

Copper phthalocyanine was used as ion carrier for preparing polymeric membrane selective sensor for detection of iodide. The electrode was prepared by incorporating the ionophore into plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane, coated on the surface of graphite electrode. This novel electrode shows high selectivity for iodide with respect to many common inorganic and organic anions. The effects of membrane composition, pH and the influence of lipophilic cationic and anionic additives and also nature of plasticizer on the response characteristics of the electrode were investigated. A calibration plot with near‐Nernestian slope for iodide was observed over a wide linear range of five decades of concentration (5×10^?6?1×10^?1 M). The electrode has a fast response time, and micro‐molar detection limit (ca. 1×10^?6 M iodide) and could be used over a wide pH range of 3.0–8.0. Application of the electrode to the potentiometric titration of iodide ion with silver nitrate is reported. This sensor is used for determination of the minute amounts of iodide in lake water samples.

Analysis of selected ionic liquid cations by ion exchange chromatography and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography

The chromatographic behavior of 8 ionic liquids - 7 homologues of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium and 4-methyl-N-butylpyridinium - has been investigated with a strong cation exchange adsorbent. In particular, the dependence of the retention properties of these solutes on mobile phase composition, pH, and buffer concentration was evaluated with the aim of optimizing and improving the selectivity and retention of solute separation. While using the SCX stationary phase, several interactions occurred with varying strengths, depending on the mobile phase composition. Cation exchange, nonspecific hydrophobic interactions, and adsorption chromatography behavior were observed. Reversed phase chromatography occurred at low concentrations of acetonitrile, electrostatic and adsorption interactions at higher organic modifier concentrations. Elevated buffer concentrations lowered the retention factors without affecting the selectivity of ionic liquids. Obtained results were further compared to the chromatographic behaviour of ionic liquids in the reversed phase system. All analyzed ionic liquids follow reversed-phase behavior while being separated. Much lower selectivity in the range of highly hydrophilic compounds is obtained. This suggests preferred use of ion chromatography for separation and analysis of compounds below 4 carbon atoms in the alkyl side chain.

Estimation of degree of counterion binding and related parameters of monomeric and dimeric cationic surfactants from cloud point measurements by using triblock polymer as probe

The cloud point (C _P) measurements of aqueous solutions of a triblock polymer (TBP) [(PEO)_2.5(PPO)₃₁(PEO)_2.5], in the presence of varying amounts of cationic surfactants (monomeric and dimeric alkylammoniumbromides) covering premicellar to postmicellar regions, have been carried out. A plot of C _P vs surfactant concentration allowed us to evaluate apparent critical micelle concentration (cmc*), which has been found to decrease with an increase in the amount of salt. The cmc* values thus obtained in the absence and presence of salt allowed us to evaluate counterion binding (β) by using the Corrin–Harkins method. β values have been further used to evaluate the thermodynamic parameters of these ionic surfactants. The results suggest that the β values evaluated using this method, especially at low [TBP], are in good agreement with those already reported in the literature.     

Copper(II) ion sensor based on electropolymerized undoped conducting polymers

A solid state copper(II) ion sensor is reported based on the application of electropolymerized undoped (neutral) polycarbazole (PCz) and polyindole (PIn) modified electrodes. The new sensor shows high selectivity to Cu²⁺ ions with a detection limit of 10^–5 M. PCz and PIn are formed respectively by the anodic oxidation of 50 mM carbazole and 5 mM indole monomers in dichloromethane containing 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium perchlorate on a platinum electrode using a single compartment cell. Potentiostatic polymerization of both the monomers are carried out at 1.3 V and 1.0 V vs. Ag/AgCl, respectively. Perchlorate ions were electrochemically removed from the polymer films by applying – 0.2 V vs. Ag/AgCl. Polymer-coated electrodes are incubated in 1 M KCl solution for 8 h followed by incubation in distilled water for 2 h before using as a metal ion sensor. The undoped PCz and PIn electrodes were found to be highly selective and sensitive for Cu²⁺ ions with little selectivity for Pb²⁺ and negligible response towards Ag⁺, Hg²⁺, Cu⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺ or Zn²⁺. Potentiometric responses for Cu²⁺ ions are recorded for both the sensor electrodes together with a double-junction Ag/AgCl reference electrode. Calibration curves for Cu²⁺ are reported for both ion sensors. The polymer-modified electrodes were found to be stable for several weeks. Electronic Publication

The electrode could be used over a wide pH range 3–10 and has the advantages of high selectivity, fast response time and good lifetime (over 4 months). It was successfully used as indicator electrode in potentiometric titrations and direct potentiometric assay of iodide ions.
