A study on the adsorption voltammetry of titanium with various heterocyclic azo-compounds

The voltammetric behaviour of various heterocyclic azo-compounds and their Ti-complexes was investigated at a stationary Hg electrode. In moderately acidic solutions Ti(IV) reacts with pyridylazo-compounds (PAR, 5-Br-PADAP, PAN), thiazolylazo-compounds (TAR, 5-Me-TAR, TAN, 4-Me-TAP) and pyrazolylazo-compounds (MDR, ERB) to form Ti-complexes, which are strongly adsorbed onto the Hg-electrode. These complexes are reduced at potentials more negative than those corresponding to the reduction of their respective ligands. The conditions for determining titanium by adsorption voltammetry using TAR and MDR as complexing agents were investigated in detail, as was the influence of foreign ions on the…

Study on the sensitive and selective adsorption voltammetry of vanadium with antipyrylazo III (APA III)

The sensitive and selective adsorption voltammetric determination of the vanadium(V)-antipyrylazoIII complex in HAc-NaAc solution is investigated. The V-complex is strongly adsorbed onto a stationary Hg-electrode and is reduced at a potential more negative than that corresponding to the reduction of its ligand. The conditions for determining vanadium are investigated and the mechanism of the reduction peak of the vanadium complex is discussed, as also the influence of foreign ions on the determination of vanadium. An at least 20-fold excess of foreign ions does not cause any interference. The detection limit is 4×10−10 mol/l V with 3 min enrichment time.

Determination of titanium by adsorption-voltammetry with 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-(diethylamino)-phenol (5-Br-PADAP)

The 1:1 complex between titanium (IV) and 5-Br-PADAP can be used to determine titanium by adsorption voltammetry at a stationary Hg-electrode. The experimental conditions for the determination are described. The detection limit is 3×10−10 mol/l Ti (0.015 ppb). Calibration curves are linear for solutions containing 4×10−10 to 5×10−8 mol/l Ti(IV) and an enrichment time of 3 min. The influence of foreign ions was investigated. The determination can be carried out in the presence of a 5000-fold excess of iron.

Contribution to the adsorption voltammetric determination of manganese

The adsorption voltammetric determination of Mn(II) with Bromopyrogallol Red (BPR) and Mordant Red 19 (MDR) has been investigated using a hanging drop mercury electrode. In NH3/NH4Cl solution, ligands and Mn(II) complexes give well separated voltammetric peaks after enrichment onto the electrode. The conditions for determining manganese by adsorption voltammetry with these reagents have been investigated in detail, as has the influence of foreign ions on the determination. The detection limits are 4·10−10 mol/L Mn for BPR and 8·10−10 mol/L Mn for MDR, respectively.
