Determination of Labile Iron at Low nmol L−1 Levels in Estuarine and Coastal Waters by Anodic Stripping Voltammetry

A new method is presented for the determination of electrochemically labile iron in estuarine and coastal seawater. The method is based on differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) at a rotating silver‐alloy disk electrode. The voltammetric parameters include a plating potential of ?1.5 V and an activation potential of ?5 V for 10s; the seawater is at the original sample pH. The main finding is the presence of a peak for low nmol L^?1 levels of iron at ?0.55 V ascribed to elemental iron deposited on the bare silver alloy electrode. The peak increased linearly with the iron concentration between <1 and 14 nmol L^?1 using a 900 s plating time. At higher concentrations an additional iron peak appeared at ?0.7 V which was also found to increase linearly with the iron concentration but at a higher concentration range from ca. 15 to 90 nmol L^?1 using a 300 s plating time. The second peak was ascribed to iron deposited on iron. Additions of chelating agents (EDTA and a siderophore) to seawater caused the iron peak to be masked indicating that this method is suitable for iron speciation as only the electrochemically labile fraction is determined. The detection limit was 0.3 nmol L^?1 using a 900 s plating time. The method was used to determine iron in the range of 5 to 50 nmol L^?1 in samples from the Mersey estuary near Liverpool and its potential use for in situ monitoring was demonstrated by using it to monitor labile iron (at 2–3 nmol L^?1) over a period of 4 days at 1 h intervals in coastal waters in the Trondheim fjord, Norway.     

Stability of Copper(II), Nickel(II) and Zinc(II) Binary and Ternary Complexes of Histidine,Histamine and Glycine in Aqueous Solution

The binary and mixed-ligand complexes formed between ligands (histidine (His), histamine (Him) and glycine (Gly)) and some transition metals (Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II)) were studied potentiometrically in aqueous solution at (25.0 ± 0.1) C and I = 0.10 M KCl in order to determine the protonation constants of the free ligands and stability constants of binary and ternary complexes. The complexation model for each system has been established by the software program BEST from the potentiometric data. The most probable binding mode for each binary species of histidine and for all mixed species was also discussed based upon derived equilibrium constants and stability constants related to the binary species. The ambidentate nature of the histidine ligand, i.e. the ability to coordinate histamine-like, imidazolepropionic acid-like and glycine-like modes was indicated from the results obtained. The stability of ternary complexes was quantitatively compared with their corresponding binary complexes in terms of the parameters, log K, log X and ₁₁₁₀. The concentration distributions of various species formed in solution were also evaluated. In terms of the nature of metal ion, the complex stability follows the trend Cu(II) > Ni(II) > Zn(II), which is in agreement with the Irving-Williams order of metal ions. Thus, the results obtained were compared and evaluated with those in the literature.     

Thermodynamics of molecular interactions in ethyl iodide+toluene mixtures

The excess Gibb's free energy of mixing, G^E, for ethyl iodide+toluene at 25°C have been obtained from the measured vapor pressuure data. The H^E and G^E values for ethyl iodide+toluene are positive throughout the ethyl iodide concentration range and G^E>H^E. The results have been analyzed in terms of Flory and ideal associated model theory of nonelectrolyte solutions. It has been observed that the ideal associated model approach which assumes the presence of AN and A₂B molecular species describes well (within±10 J-mol^–1 in the worst case) the general dependence of H^E on X_A (mole fraction of ethyl iodide) over the whole composition range for ethyl iodide+toluene mixtures. The equilibrium constants for A+A AB and 2A+BA₂B reactions along with the enthalpies of formation of AB and A₂B molecular species have been calculated.

A study of preferential solvation of N-alkyl pyridinium iodides in mixed solvents containing acetonitrile

The charge transfer (CT) band maximum of N-alkyl pyridinium iodide (NAPI) has been studied as a function of the composition of binary mixed dipolar aprotic solvents. The deviation from linearity of the energy maximum (E₁₂) and the mole fraction (of a component solvent) plot is explained as due to a preferential solvation by the more polar cosolvent in the binary mixture. The extent of preferential solvation has been observed to vary with the composition, the maximum being towards the less-polar end. The role of hydrogen bond donating ability of a solvent in preferential solvation is discussed.
