Simultaneous determination of cobalt,nickel and iron by multi-wavelength spectrophotometry

A method for the simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of cobalt, nickel and iron based on the formation of their complexes with 1,5-bis(di-2-pyridylmethylene) thiocarbonohydrazide is proposed. The absorption curves of these complexes overlap severely in the scanning range 390–510 nm. The analyte concentrations are calculated by a least squares fit of the pure spectra to the mixture spectra, which therefore makes the simultaneous determination of these metallic ions possible without tedious pretreatment. The detection limits afforded by the proposed method range from 0.05 g/ml for Fe and Ni to 0.1 g/ml for Co. Root-mean-squared errors of prediction of 0.085 g/ml for Co, 0.048 g/ml for Ni and 0.1172 g/ml for Fe were obtained using the wavelength range 400–510 nm and 0.147 g/ml for Co, 0.107 g/ml for Ni and 0.127 g/ml for Fe using the wavelength range 420–434 nm. The effect of interferences is studied and the proposed method is applied to analysis for the above elements in synthetic samples and real samples, such as biological materials and alloys.     

Simultaneous determination of promethazine,chlorpromazine, and perphenazine by multivariate calibration methods and derivative spectrophotometry

Partial least-squares (PLS) regression, singular value decomposition-based PLS, and an artificial neural network (ANN) were tested as calibration procedures for the simultaneous determination of promethazine, chlorpromazine, and perphenazine by both conventional and derivative spectrophotometry. Comparison of the results revealed that the application of the ANN to the derivative spectra is superior to the application of the 2 PLS methods used. Different binary and ternary synthetic mixtures of the phenothiazine drugs in pure form and in tablets were analyzed by the proposed method, and acceptable results were obtained.

The procedure does not require equations to be solved, and is suitable for concentrations of 0.2–8.0 mg ml⁻¹ of cobalt and 0.05–1.60 mg ml⁻¹ of copper. The main interferences, both anionic and cationic, are easily eliminated.

Simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of cobalt, nickel and copper with 2,3-quinoxaline- dithiol

In aqueous ethanol cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(I) react instantaneously with 2,3-quinoxalinedithiol at pH 2 to form strongly coloured complexes exhibiting absorption maxima at 510, 606 and 665, and 625 nm, respectively. At pH 6 the reaction of copper can be virtually eliminated, while the cobalt and nickel reactions show only small decreases in sensitivity. This behaviour has been made the basis of a rapid method for the simultaneous determination of these three elements. The absorbances of the complexes have been found to be additive for all combinations of these elements in which the individual concentrations have been varied from approximately 0.1 to 1 ppm. A least-squares estimate of the concentration of any of the elements may be readily obtained by using a simple linear equation based on the absorbance readings and a set of constants derived from the spectrophotometric data. The analyses of seven synthetic solutions and four NBS Standard Reference Materials yielded a maximum error of 6.0% and an average error of 1.6%.     

Simultaneous determination of aluminoxamine and ferrioxamine in post-hemodialysis fluids by spectrophotometry and multivariate calibration

A spectrophotometric method for simultaneous determination of Al(III) and Fe(III) using the chelator Desferal® (desferrioxamine B) was developed. Partial least squares (PLS) regression was performed to resolve the overlapped signals obtained from Al(III) and Fe(III) complexes. The parameters controlling behavior of the system were investigated and optimum conditions were selected. PLS was the choice for the analysis of binary mixtures of Fe(III) and Al(III) over the range of 0.1 to 0.8 mg L^?1 by using the data of first derivative spectra. Absorbance data were taken between 200 and 600 nm. The calculated sensitivity values for the multivariate method were 4.88 and 5.64 for Al(III) and Fe(III), respectively. Multivariate detection limits were 0.075 and 0.064 mg L^?1 for Al(III) and Fe(III), respectively. The method was applied to real post-hemodialysis samples, and sample digestion by UV irradiation was discussed.     

Spectrophotometric determination of copper, nickel, cobalt, iron and manganese as their pyridine thiocyanates Simultaneous determination in mixtures

Spectrophotometric determinations of copper, nickel, cobalt, iron, and manganese, based on the chloroform extraction of the metal pyridine thiocyanates, have been investigated. Optimum conditions require the pH of the aqueous solution to be in the range about 5–8; tartaric acid is used to prevent precipitation of hydrous oxides. An excess of pyridine must be used because chloroform readily extracts pyridine from the aqueous solution. Results are improved by making the extraction from a solution of high ionic strength (2 or above), which is provided by magnesium nitrate. Perchlorate decreases the absorbance, but the effect is essentially constant over a perchlorate concentration range of 0.8 to 2M. Although the metal pyridine thiocyanates are extracted by benzene, substituted benzenes, and halogenated hydrocarbons, chloroform is superior to other solvents in extraction efficiency and in colour stability of the extracted species. An example is given of the simultaneous determination of copper, nickel, cobalt, and iron in the same solution. Anions that also form metal pyridine compounds must be absent.

Simultaneous kinetic determination of copper, cobalt and nickel by means of -group interchange reactions

The kinetic determination of copper, cobalt and nickel in binary and ternary mixtures without prior separation is described. The methods are based on the difference in the reaction rate of interchange of - groups between thiosemicarbazide and 6-methylpicolinaldehyde azine in the presence of these ions at pH 4.5. Through these reactions the corresponding metal thiosemicarbazone complexes are formed. Various ratios of these ions at the 10(-5)M level can be determined photometrically by either the logarithmic extrapolation method or a combined initial-rate and fixed-time method proposed here for the first time.

Simultaneous determination of copper and iron by second derivative spectrophotometry using mixtures of ligands

A highly sensitive and selective second derivative spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of copper and iron in mixtures. The method is based on the separation of the analytes by liquid-liquid extraction as picrate ion pairs. Iron-picrate, reacts in the organic phase of DCE with 5-phenyl-3-(4-phenyl-2-pyridinyl)-1,2,4-triazine (PPT). Similarly the copper-picrate reacts with 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenantroline (bathocuproine). The extracts were evaluated directly by derivative spectrophotometric measurement, using the zero-crossing approach for determination of copper and graphic method for iron. Iron and copper were thus determined in the ranges 8-120 ng ml(-1) and 8-125 ng ml(-1), respectively, in the presence of one another. The detection limits achieved (3sigma) were 2.9 ng ml(-1) of iron and 2.8 ng ml(-1) of copper. The relative standard deviations were in all instances less than 2.1%. The proposed method was applied to the determination of both analytes in river and tap water and the results were consistent with those provided by the AAS standard method.

Trace determination of iron,cobalt, nickel and copper in zirconium fluoride by substoichiometric radioactivation analysis

Trace amounts of transition elements (Fe, Co, Ni and Cu) in zirconium fluoride and NBS SRM's were determined by substoichiometric radioactivation analysis. The contents of impurities in sublimed sample were less than those of high-purity material and of reagent grade. The detection limits of these elements in zirconium fluoride were 10 ng/g for iron, 0.01 ng/g for cobalt, 1 ng/g for nickel and 0.1 ng/g for copper. The analytical results for iron, cobalt, nickel and copper in NBS SRM's were in good agreement with certified values.     

Micellar colorimetric determination of iron, cobalt, nickel and copper using 1-nitroso-2-naphthol

1-Nitroso-2-naphthol, an excellent color-forming chelating agent, combines to Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and so on to form slightly soluble complexes in aqueous solution. To determine these metal ions, a tedious and time consuming separation technique, such as liquid-liquid extraction, has often been performed. However, these metal-1-nitroso-2-naphthol complexes could be determined conveniently by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry in Tween 80 micellar medium that has polyoxyethylene groups. After conditions such as pH, the amount of 1-nitroso-2-naphthol and the stability were adjusted to their optimum values, the sensitivities of the metal ions in Tween 80 medium and in chloroform were compared. It was shown that the sensitivities of Fe(III) and Co(II) in Tween 80 medium were higher than in chloroform, but that of Cu(II) was lower. The interfering effects among analytes ions, Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) were more serious than by other ions, but the interfering effects could be removed by adjusting pH or adding the masking agents such as NH(3) or oxalate. Detection limits of Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) were 0.024, 0.016, 0.039 and 0.023 mug ml(-1), respectively, and the correlation coefficients of these calibration curves were above 0.996. Recovery yields of the metal ions in the mixed standard solution ranged from 96 to 103%, and their coefficients of variation were low ranging between 0.94 and 1.75%. Cu(II) in brass sample and the amount of Fe(III) in steel sample were also determined. This proposed technique is simple, convenient and speedy.     

Determination of cobalt, copper, iron, nickel and zinc in cemented tungsten carbides with cobalt as a binder by FAAS: Matrix effect control by multivariate technique

A new approach for the determination of cobalt, copper, iron, nickel and zinc in cemented tungsten carbides with cobalt as a binder by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry (FAAS) is reported. Real samples were dissolved in phosphoric, hydrochloric and nitric acid. PTFE bomb or alternatively small amounts of HF were used for the enhancement of the recovery of the elements investigated. Synthetic samples were used for interference studies. Multiple linear regression was applied for the control of matrix effects and it proved to be very effective in the search for interfering elements. Using simple acid based standards, all investigated elements could be determined sequentially in a complex matrix by using an appropriate method of calculation. The method described has been succesfully applied to real type commercial samples. Results were compared with those obtained by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF), being in good agreement with each other and having relative standard deviations better than 5%.     

Simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of diuretics by using multivariate calibration methods

The wavelength range and number of factors used in partial least-squares (PLS) calibration for the resolution of the dihydralazine (DHZ)-hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) binary mixture and the dihydralazine-hydrochlorothiazide-reserpine ternary mixture were optimized in terms of the relative standard error (R.S.E.) and relative mean standard error (R.M.S.E.). Under the optimum conditions thus established, synthetic mixtures of the analytes can be resolved with errors and relative standard deviations (R.S.D) less than 4.5 and 1.0%, respectively. The ensuing method, which was validated by comparison with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), also gives good results with real samples (pharmaceutical preparations).
