Speciation of selenium (IV) in natural waters by solid phase spectrophotometry

A method for the speciation of selenium (IV) based on solid-phase spectrophotometry (SPS), has been developed. In acidic conditions selenium (IV) oxidizes potassium iodide and the I(3)(-) forms an ionic association with Rhodamine B (RB) which is fixed on a dextran type lipophilic gel. The gel phase absorbances at 590 and 800 nm are measured directly, and allows for the determination of selenium (IV) in the range of 0.7-18.0 microg l(-1), with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.8%. The method has been applied to the determination of Se(IV) in natural waters.     

2'-deoxyribonucleoside 3'-aryl phosphoranilidates: Key intermediates in the stereospecific synthesis of 2'-deoxyribonucleoside cyclic 3',5'-phosphorothioates and dinucleoside(3'→5')-phosphoranilidates

Phosphorylation of the 5'-O-monomethoxytrityl-2'-deoxyribonucleosides by means of aryl phosphoranilidochloridates gives the diastereoisomers of 5'-O-monomethoxytrityl-2'-deoxyribonucleoside 3'-aryl phosphoranilidates. Their separation can be performed by means of chromatographic techniques. They can be further converted to the 2'-deoxyribonucleoside cyclic 3'-5' phosphoranilidates, which are intermediates in the stereospecific synthesis of 2'-deoxyribonucleoside cyclic (3'-5')phosphorothioates of known absolute configuration at phosphorus.     

The determination of selenium by atomic absorption spectrophotometry

The problems involved in the determination of selenium by atomic absorption spectrophotometry are discussed. A practical method is described for which the sensitivity is approximately 1 p.p.m. Such concentrations can be determined in organic samples, but with mineral samples the preliminary treatment renders the procedure unsuitable for concentrations lower than 50 p.p.m. in a sulphide ore.     

Differential determination of selenium(IV) and selenium(VI) with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate and dithizone by atomic-absorption spectrophotometry with a carbon-tube atomizer

The extraction behaviour of selenium(IV) and selenium(VI) with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate and dithizone in organic solvents has been investigated by means of flameless atomic-absorption spectrophotometry with a carbon-tube atomizer. The selective extraction of selenium(IV) and differential determination of selenium(IV) and selenium(VI) have been developed. With sodium diethyldithiocarbamate and carbon tetrachloride, when the aqueous phase/organic solvent volume ratio is 5 and the injection volume in the carbon tube is 20 microl, the sensitivity for selenium is 0.4 ng/ml for 1% absorption. The relative standard deviations are ca. 3%. Interference by many metal ions can he prevented by masking with EDTA. The proposed methods have been applied satisfactorily to determination of Se(IV) and Se(VI) in various types of water.     

Complex formation in concentrated sulfuric acid between selenium(iv) and 1,1'-dianthrimide

The complex formation in concentrated sulfuric acid between selenium(IV) and 1,1'-dianthrimide (Di) was studied by spectrophotometry, infrared spectroscopy and chemical analysis. The system was found to contain two species, a Se₂Di complex and aselenium-1,2,7,8-diphthaloylcarbazole complex. The primary complex reaction was assumed to be the formation of the Se₂Di compound; unter certain experimental conditions one selenium atom is split off, resulting in the irreversible formation of a carbazole bond. The selenium-1,2,7,8-diphthaloylcarbazole was prepared in the solid state.     

The determination of selenium(IV) by thermometric enthalpy titration with thiosulphate

Selenimn(IV) can be titrated in the range 0.2–6 mg with thiosulphate; relative standard deviations are 1.2–0.54%. Experimental conditions were manipulated to use the endothermic enthalpy of dilution and disproportionation of thiosulphate to advantage in improving end-point precision. Common anions do not interfere; interferences from copper(II), iron(III), lead(II) and mercury(II) can be minimized by masking.     

Complex formation in concentrated sulfuric acid between 1,1'-dianthrimide and germanium(IV) or tellurium(IV)

The complex formation in concentrated sulfuric acid between I,I'-dianthrimide (Di) and germanium or tellurium (IV) was studied by spectrophotometry. The systems contained only one species, GeDi or TeDi; the stability constants in 93.2% sulfuric acid were calculated to be 221 and 228, respectively.     

Selective determination of selenium(IV) from environmental samples by UV-visible spectrophotometry using O-methoxyphenyl thiourea as a chelating ligand

A selective extraction–spectrophotometric method has been developed for determination of selenium(IV) using O-methoxyphenyl thiourea (OMePT) as a chelating agent. The basis of the proposed method is the spectrophotometric determination of selenium(IV)–OMePT complex obtained after extraction of selenium(IV) from 3.5 M hydrochloric acid media using OMePT in chloroform solvent. The complex shows maximum absorbance at 350 nm against the reagent blank. The Beer’s law was obeyed over the concentration range 5–60 µg mL^?1 of selenium(IV). The optimum concentration range was 20–50 µg mL^?1 as evaluated from Ringbom’s plot. The molar absorptivity and Sandell’s sensitivity of the selenium(IV)–OMePT complex in chloroform were 3.312 × 10² L mol^?1cm^?1 and 0.2384 µg cm^?2, respectively. The composition of selenium(IV)–OMePT complex was 1:2 established from slope ratio method, mole ratio method and Job’s continuous variation method. The complex was stable for more than 72 h. The interfering effect of various foreign ions was studied and suitable masking agents were used wherever necessary to enhance the selectivity of the developed method. The proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of selenium(IV) from real samples, viz. pharmaceutical formulations, shampoo, vegetable sample, synthetic mixtures and environmental samples. Repetition of the method was checked by finding the relative standard deviation (RSD) for 10 determinations which was 0.35%.     

Microbiological transformations—XII: Microbiological reduction of racemic 1-(2',2',3'-trimethyl-cyclopent-3'-en-1'-yl)propan-2-one and 1-(2',2',3'-trimethyl-cyclopent-3'-en-1'-yl)butan-2-one by rhodotorula mucilaginosa

The microbiological reduction of (±)-l-(2',2',3'-trimethylcyclopent-3'-en-l'-yl)-propan-2-one (4) and (±)-1-(2',2',3'-trimethylcyclopent-3'-en-l'-yl)-butan-2-one (5) by Rhodotorula mucilaginosa was investigated. Both enantiomers of 4 are reduced stereospecifically to corresponding alcohols; (+)-(2S, l'R)-(2',2',3'-trimethylcyclopent-3'-en-l'-yl)-propan-2-ol (6) and (-)-(2S,l'S)-(2',2',3'-trimethylcyclopent-3'-en-l'-yl)-propan-2-ol (7). p ]The substrate selectivity in the reduction of 5 was observed: R enantiomer of 5 yields stereospecifically (+)-(2S,1'R)-(2',2',3'-trimethylcyclopent-3'-en-l'-yl)-butan-2-ol (8) while S(-)5 remains unchanged.     

Selective photometric determination of low conentrations of selenium(IV) and selenium(VI) in bottled drinking water

A procedure is developed for the selective photometric determination of selenium(IV) in bottled drinking water by the oxidation of Methylene Blue in 1 M HCl to colorless decomposition products and of selenium(VI) by its interaction with the specified reagent at pH 5–6 with the formation of a colored ion pair. The limits of detection are 1 and 0.8 µg/L, respectively. At the concentration of selenium(IV) 2 µg/L, the admissible weight ratios are: SeO₄^2-, Br₃^- (1: 20); Br^– (1: 60); I^–, IO₃^- and IO₄^- (1: 100). At equal concentration of selenium(VI), the following species: SeO₄^2-(1: 20); Br₃^-, Br^–, I^–, IO₃^-, and IO₄^- (1: 100) do not interfere with the determination. Other anions and cations present in highly mineralized waters do not interfere with the determination. The relative error of determination is 8–10% in the concentration range 2–10 µg/L of selenium(IV) and selenium(VI) and does not exceed 5% in their concentration range of 10–100 µg/L.
