Abstract: | Aliphatic amines were determined on the microscale by potentiometric titration with standard cupric sulfate solution in aqueous or partially aqueous (methanolic) medium. Electromotive forces were monitored with a copper-ion-selective electrode or a graphite rod impregnated with silver sulfide/cupric sulfide, and a double-junction reference electrode. Monoamines and diamines up to 1,3-diaminopropane reacted on a 2:1 amine:Cu basis. Diamines from 1,4-diaminobutane to at least 1,7-diaminoheptane reacted on an equimolar basis. The dissociation constants of some of the amines were determined. A linear relationship exists between the emf at half complexation and the dissociation constants of the amines tested. |
