Exploiting 1,4-naphthoquinone and 3-iodo-1,4-naphthoquinone motifs as anion binding sites by hydrogen or halogen-bonding interactions
2019
We describe here the utilization of 1,4-naphthoquinone and 3-iodo-1,4-naphthoquinone motifs as new anion binding sites by hydrogen- or halogen-bonding interactions, respectively. These binding sites have been integrated in bidentate ester based receptors. Emission experiments reveal that both receptors selectively recognize sulfate anions, which induced a remarkable increase of a new emission band attributed to the formation of π-stacking interactions between two 1,4-naphthoquinone units. Absorption spectroscopy and mass spectrometry indicate the disruption of the ester group of the 1,4-naphthoquinone based receptor in the presence of HP2O73−, H2PO4−, F−, AcO− and C6H5CO2− and in the haloge…
Remote Modification of Bidentate Phosphane Ligands Controlling the Photonic Properties in Their Complexes: Enhanced Performance of [Cu(RN‐xantphos)(N…
2020
A series of copper(I) complexes of the type [Cu(HN-xantphos)(N^N)][PF6] and [Cu(BnN-xantphos)(N^N)][PF6], in which N^N = bpy, Mebpy and Me2bpy, HN-xantphos = 4,6-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-10H-phenoxazine and BnN-xantphos = 10-benzyl-4,6-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)-10H-phenoxazine is described. The single crystal structures of [Cu(HN-xantphos)(Mebpy)][PF6] and [Cu(BnN-xantphos)(Me2bpy)][PF6] confirm the presence of N^N and P^P chelating ligands with the copper(I) atoms in distorted coordination environments. Solution electrochemical and photophysical properties of the BnN-xantphos-containing compounds (for which the highest-occupied molecular orbital is located on the phenoxazine moiety) are repor…
Optical recognition and removal of Hg(II) using a new self-chemosensor based on a modified amino-functionalized Al-MOF
2017
Abstract We developed a simple self-chemical optical sensor for the monitoring and removal of ultra-trace levels of Hg(II) from aqueous media. The development of this sensor was based on the covalent attachment of amino-functionalized aluminum-based MOF particles with ninhydrin. The new sensor is densely coated with a chelating ligand to permit an ultra-fast, selective, pH-dependent visualization for removal of Hg(II) with detection limit (LOD∼0.494 μg L−1). Monitoring was accomplished via both a colorimetric signal visible to the naked eye as well as UV–vis absorption spectroscopy. Digital image-based colorimetric analysis has also used as a semi-quantitative analysis for determination the…
Copper, iron and zinc determinations in human milk using FAAS with microwave digestion
2000
Abstract A method for determining copper, iron and zinc in human milk was optimized and validated. It includes microwave mineralization of the sample and measuring the elements by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS). Only 2 ml of milk is needed, and the method is free of matrix interferences. The values obtained for the detection limits (0.07; 0.07; 0.11 μg/ml milk, for copper, iron and zinc) precision of the method, intra-assay (2.9; 5.2; 6.1%RSD for copper, iron and zinc) and accuracy, evaluated using recovery assays (98.8; 100.4; 95.9% for copper, iron and zinc) show that the method is useful for the purpose mentioned. Moreover, the method is rapid and simple, and the determinati…
On-line bidirectional electrostacking of chromium(III) and chromium(VI) for flame atomic absorption spectrometry determination
2000
Abstract An on-line bidirectional electrostacking-flow injection-flame atomic absorption spectrometry method has been developed for the simultaneous separation, pre-concentration and determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI). The electrostacking-flow injection unit was established, the pH and components of the support buffer and sample medium were investigated. Results indicated that the ionic mobility, electric field strength and sample area cross-section are the main influence factors on the electrostacking. The calibration range for both, Cr(III) and Cr(VI), was from 20 to 400 μg l −1 . The limit of detection was 7 μg l −1 for three-times the standard deviation of blank values using a electros…
Flow injection flame atomic absorption analysis of Fe and Mn in cement samples
1993
A new procedure has been developed for the determination of Fe and Mn in cements. It consists in dispersing 50 mg of the solid sample in 25 ml of 0.15 mol/l HNO3 and 0.12 mol/l HCl solution. Acid slurries are heated at 50°C for 10 min and then different volumes of the slurry are injected into a water carrier stream. This previous acid treatment leaches the elements to be determined and permits the use of acid solutions as standards. For the Mn determination, the use of a single line flow injection manifold provides a limit of detection of 0.03 mgl−1 and a dynamic range up to 6 mgl−1. For the determination of Fe, the on-line dispersion of samples, using a well stirred mixing chamber, increas…
Determination of chromium(III) and chromium(VI) in mineral water by bidirectional electrostacking and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry
2001
Abstract A feasibility investigation was carried out on the use of bidirectional electrostacking for simultaneous separation and pre-concentration of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) and their electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) determination. The bidirectional electrostacking manifold was improved, and the effects of sample tube cross-section and electrostacking time on the pre-concentration factor were investigated. Results indicate that the sample tube cross-section and electrostacking time are the main influence factors on the electrostacking pre-concentration, as well as the electric field strength and ionic mobility. The method developed was suitable for the simultaneous separatio…
Atomic absorption spectrometric determination of molybdenum in lubricating oils with use of emulsions
1985
Abstract Samples (0.1 g) containing molybdenum disulphide are digested with aqua regia or with a (1 + 1) hydrofluoric/nitric acid mixture, without complete destruction of the matrix, and the molybdenum is determined in an air/acetylene flame, after emulsification with a non-ionic surfactant (Nemol K-39). The detection limit is ca. 30 μg Mo g−1, and the r.s.d. is 2.9% for 6 analyses of a sample containing 6.5 mg Mo g−1.
On-line microwave oven digestion flame atomic absorption analysis of solid samples
1990
Abstract A manifold has been developed for on-line microwave oven digestion and flame atomic absorption spectrometric (FAAS) determination of metallic elements in solid samples. The use of a closed flow system permits sample treatment before analysis by FAAS, the direct injection of slurries avoids a filtration step and the interconnection of two conventional rotary injection valves allows the rapid introduction of samples and standards. The determination of lead in sewage sludge was employed as a test system for the proposed on-line sample digestion manifold. The procedure has a limit of detection of 0.2 μg Pb g−1.
A comparative study of flame atomic-absorption methods for determination of zinc in serum and blood plasma
1983
Seven selected methods for determination of zinc in blood plasma by flame atomic-absorption spectroscopy have been compared. Analytical characteristics such as sensitivity, detection limit, precision, analytical recovery, accuracy and physical interferences were studied. Two of the seven methods are recommended as the most suitable for the purpose.
