Colorimetric determination of the fluoride ion based on interference with extractability

Summary The sensitivity of colorimetric determinations based on reduction of extinction by complex-forming anions can be increased by measuring the change of absorbancy in the organic phase after shaking with a suitable solvent, i. e. by determining the interference of the anion with extractability. This principle has been applied to the determination of the fluoride ion.

Zusammenfassung Die Empfindlichkeit kolorimetrischer Bestimmungen, die auf Herabsetzung der Extinktion durch komplexbildende Anionen beruhen, kann durch Messung der Absorptionsänderung in der organischen Phase nach Schütteln mit einem geeigneten Lösungsmittel, das heißt durch Bestimmung der durch das Anion verminderten Extrahierbarkeit, erhöht werden. Dieses Prinzip wurde auf die Bestimmung von Fluoridion angewendet.

Résumé La sensibilité des déterminations colorimétriques basée sur l'effet de diminution d'extinction dû à des anions donnant lieu à la formation de complexes peut être accrue par la variation de l'absorption dans la phase organique après agitation avec un solvant approprié, ce qui revient à déterminer l'effet d'empêchement d'extraction dû à l'anion. Ce principe a été appliqué au dosage de l'ion fluorure.

     

Microdynamics of solid anilinium chloride

Intraionic C₃ reorientation of the anilinium NH⁺₃ group was evidenced by measurements of the temperature dependence of the proton spin—lattice relaxation time, by rotating frame experiments and cw NMR data. Analysis of the results yielded a rotor hindering potential E = 33.6 kJ/mole and τ_o = 4 × 10⁻¹³ s.     

1-Aroylmethylisoquinolines

The reaction of 1-aroylmethyl-2-benzoyl-1,2-dihydroisoquinolines with the hydrideion acceptor 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-oxidopiperidinium perchlorate gives stable N-acyl salts, which are converted to either 1-aroylmethylisoquinolines or anhydro bases when they are treated with some bases.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1662–1664, December, 1979.Original article submitted January 31, 1979.

Polysaccharides ofEremurus. X. Characteristics of the polysaccharides ofEremurus lactiflorus andE. luteus

Water-soluble polysaccharides have been isolated from two species ofEremurus — E. lactiflorus andE. luteus — with yields of 13.5% and 20.5%, respectively. They contained mainly glucose and mannose in ratios of 1:5 and 1:3.1. The polysaccharides ofE. lactiflorus were separated from a column of DEAE-cellulose. The yield of neutral fraction was 10.3%. Gel filtration of the polysaccharides on Sephadex G-200 showed their polydispersity. Homogeneous fractions were obtained by fractional precipitation with ethanol. They have been characterized with respect to monosaccharide composition, molecular weight, and IR spectra.
