Partial least squares modeling as a powerful multivariate statistical tool applied to spectrophotometric simultaneous determination of cobalt, copper, and nickel in aqueous solutions. The concentration range for cobalt, copper and nickel were 0.4-2.6, 0.6-3.4, 0.5-5.5 ppm, respectively. The experimental calibration set was composed with 36 sample solutions using a mixture design for three component mixtures. The absorption spectra were recorded from 470 to 600 nm. The effect of pH on the sensitivity and selectivity was studied according to net analyte signal (NAS). The values of root mean square difference (RMSD) for cobalt, copper and nickel using partial least squares (PLS) were 0.0192, 0.0263 and 0.0446 ppm, respectively. The effects of various cations and anions were investigated. The method was used to determination of cobalt, copper and nickel in two sample alloys based on copper, nickel and cobalt (known as cunico) and based on cobalt, nickel and iron (known as conife).     

Simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of cobalt,copper and nickel using 1-（2-thiazolylazo）-2-naphthol by chemometrics methods

The simultaneous determination of cobalt, copper and nickel using 1-（2-thiazolylazo）-2-naphthol （first figure of this article） by spectrophotometric method is a difficult problem in analytical chemistry, due to spectral interferences. By multivariate calibration methods, such as partial least squares （PLS） regression, it is possible to obtain a model adjusted to the concentration values of the mixtures used in the calibration range. Orthogonal signal correction （OSC） is a preprocessing technique used for removing the information unrelated to the target variables based on constrained principal component analysis. OSC is a suitable preprocessing method for PLS calibration of mixtures without loss of prediction capacity using spectrophotometric method. In this study, the calibration model is based on absorption spectra in the 550-750-nm range for 21 different mixtures of cobalt, copper and nickel. Calibration matrices were formed from samples containing 0.05-1.05, 0.05-1.30 and 0.05-0.80 μg·mL^-1 for cobalt, copper and nickel, respectively. The root mean square error of prediction （RMSEP） for cobalt, copper and nickel with OSC and without OSC were 0.007, 0.008, 0.011 and 0.031,0.037, 0.032 μg· mL^-1, respectively. This procedure allows the simultaneous determination of cobalt, copper and nickel in synthetic and real samples and good reliability of the determination was proved.     

Spectrophotometric estimation of cobalt(II) with nitrilotriacetic acid

A convenient and efficient method for the estimation of cobalt(II) ions in the presence of other metal ions is described. Interference of metal ions such as iron(II), iron(III), nickel(II), manganese(II), and copper(II) have been investigated. Only iron(III) ions seriously affect this determination. Copper(II) and nickel(II) ions do not interfere if present in a molar-ratio less than 1:2 in the cobalt(II) ion solution. Cobalt(II)-nickel(II) and cobalt(II)-copper(II) binary mixtures can be efficiently analyzed at selective wavelengths.

Extractive separation of Cu<Superscript>2+</Superscript>–Co<Superscript>2+</Superscript> and Ni<Superscript>2+</Superscript>–Co<Superscript>2+</Superscript> mixtures using <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-salicylideneaniline

A study on the extraction of copper(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) from solutions containing ions of both metals with N-salicylideneaniline(SAN) in chloroform has been realized. Distribution of the metal ions in wide range of pH has been studied. Extraction of copper(II) was always favored over that of cobalt(II). Extraction of copper(II) from binary metal solution is selective and it can be quantitatively separated from cobalt(II). The equilibrium constant of the extraction of cobalt and nickel from an aqueous solution containing both metals using SAN were evaluated. The separation factors for cobalt and nickel were expressed as a function of the distribution of nickel and cobalt. From these results, salicylideneaniline is an adequate extractant for extractive separation of such mixtures.

The first derivative spectra can be used for the determination of both components in the majority of binary mixtures except of Cu(II) and Co(II) and systems containing Fe(II). The second and the third derivative spectra allow to determine one constituent in some ternary and quaternary mixtures.     

Principal Component‐Wavelet Neural Network as a Multivariate Calibration Method for Simultaneous Determination of Iron,Nickel, and Cobalt

Abstract

Principal component‐artificial neural network (PC‐ANN) and principal component‐wavelet neural network (PC‐WNN) are applied for simultaneous determination of iron(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II). A simple and selective spectrophotometric method for simultaneous determination of iron(II), nickel(II), and cobalt(II) based on formation of their complexes with 1‐(2‐pyridylazo)‐2‐naphtol (PAN) in micellar media is described. Although the complexes of Fe(II), Ni(II), and Co(II) with reagent show a spectral overlap, they have been simultaneously determined by PC‐ANN and PC‐WNN. The results obtained by the two methods were compared and it was shown that in PC‐WNN, the convergence speed was faster and the root mean square error of prediction set was also smaller than PC‐ANN. Interference effects of common anions and cations were studied and the proposed method was also applied satisfactorily to the determination of Fe(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) in synthetic samples.     

The application of ph gradients in flow-injection analysis: A Method for Simultaneous Determination of Binary Mixtures of Metal Ions in Solution

Under static conditions, pH-absorbance curves are highly characteristic for a given metal ion-ligand combination. If the ligand is an unselective analytical reagent, such as 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol, the pH-absorbance curve obtained by adding the reagent to a mixture of metal ions is similar to a multi-element polarogram. It can be used for the detection of components of the mixture and for their determination. The absence of air segmentation in flow-injection systems means that pH gradients form over the sample/ carrier interface when basic solutions are injected into acid carrier streams, or vice versa. Thus there is the possibility of obtaining pH-absorbance curves under the dynamic conditions of flow injection analysis (f.i.a.). Procedures for the creation of known and reproducible pH gradients are given and discussed. The pH-gradient flow-injection method is evaluated by determining with 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) binary mixtures of (a) cobalt(II) and manganese (II) and (b) nickel(II) and copper(II) in the presence of similar amounts of cobalt(II) in the ppm range. In the latter example cobalt is kinetically masked by virtue of the relatively slow dissociation of the Co(HPAR)⁺ complex. Wide or narrow pH changes may be used, the choice being dependent on the critical pH range for complexation. The procedure is simple and accurate, and may be suitable for the rapid determination of a range of mixtures.

Two spectrophotometric methods are described for the simultaneous determination of binary mixtures of Sn(II) and Sn(IV) in water samples and fruit juice samples, without prior separation steps, using the mean centering of ratio kinetic profiles and partial least squares (PLS) methods.

The analytical characteristics of the methods for the simultaneous determination of binary mixtures of Sn(II) and Sn(IV) were calculated. The results showed that the methods were capable to simultaneous determination of 0.1–1.80 mg L⁻¹ each of cations. The proposed methods were successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of Sn(II) and Sn(IV)in an orange juice sample.

Interpolation method for treatment of mutual kinetic effects

An interpolation method for resolution of binary mixtures subject to mutual kinetic effects is reported. For a mixture of two components A and B reacting under pseudo-first-order conditions with a reagent to yield the same product, the determination of the concentration of A is based on obtaining several calibration graphs from plots of final absorbance of component B in the presence of different known amounts of A. The slope of these plots is dependent on the concentration of component A. The concentration of B is calculated from the plots of the difference in the initial rates of the concentration/time curves for the sample and several reference solutions vs. the concentration of B. The method is accurate for the resolution of binary mixtures subject to synergic effects. Fast, direct complex-formation reactions between cobalt and nickel with pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed method with use of a home-made stopped-flow mixing module. The determination of cobalt/nickel mixtures is feasible in the weight ratio range 2.5:1.0 to 1.0:5.0, in the μg ml^?1 region with an accuracy and precision less than 5 and 2%, respectively.

A simple and reliable method for simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of iron(II) and cobalt(II) has been established. The method is based on complex formation with 1‐(2‐pyridylazo)‐2‐naphtol (PAN) in a micellar medium. Despite a spectral overlap, Fe²⁺ and Co²⁺ have been simultaneously determined with chemometric approaches involving principal component artificial neural network (PC‐ANN), principal component regression (PCR) and partial least squares (PLS). Various synthetic mixtures of iron and cobalt were assessed and the results obtained by the applications of these chemometric approaches were evaluated and compared. It was found that the PC‐ANN method afforded relatively better precision than that of PCR or PLS. The proposed method permits detection limits of 0.05 and 0.07 ng mL^?1 for Co and Fe, respectively. The influences of pH, ligand amount, solvent percentage and time on the absorbance were also investigated. The proposed method was also applied satisfactorily for the determination of Fe(II) and Co(II) in real and synthetic samples.

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.

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.
