4-(2-piridilazo)resorcinolo come indicatore metallocromico schermato da verde naftolo b nella retrotitolazione di EDTA in eccesso per determinare Cr(III) come complesso Cr(III)/EDTA
EDTA excess Zn(II) back-titration in the presence of 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol indicator and naphthol green beta as inert dye for determining Cr(III) as Cr(III)/EDTA complex: application of the method to a leather industry wastewater.
The colour changes of 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol and naphthol green beta as new screening metallochromic indicator in back-titration of EDTA excess with Zn(II) to determine Cr(III)/EDTA complex was investigated with the help of tristimulus colorimetry. Specific colour discrimination (SCD) and L*, a*, b* 1976 parameters were successfully applied to evaluate the quality of colour transition at the end-point in non-alkaline media and in the presence of Zn(II) and Ca(II) which resulted in non-interfering species at 1x10(-3) M and 2x10(-3) M, respectively. The above concentrations are comparable with those used for Cr(III). Validation of the fast and accurate reported method was performed by at…
