Synthesis, transport and ionophore properties of α,ω-diphosphorylated aza podands: III. Liquid ion-selective electrodes based on phosphorylated aza podands

Aza podands having side α-aminomethylphosphine oxide groups were prepared and used as electrode-active agents in liquid membrane ion-selective electrodes. A series of liqiud membrane electrodes sensitive to Cu²⁺ and Hg²⁺ cations were prepared on the basis of N,N-bisdi(n-hexyl)phosphorylmethyl]piperazine. The electrodes containing copper complexes with aza podands as ionophores exhibit anionic function toward lipophilic anions. Potentiometric and argentometric determination of iodide ions was performed with an iodide-selective electrode based on the mercury complex.
