[ 1 ] - Electrochemical Investigation of Mo(VI)-MTB-ClO-3 System in Phosphate Buffer

The reduction mechanism of molybdenum-methyl thymol blue (MTB)-chlorate system has been investigated in water on a mercury electrode. As this system is very sensitive for ultratrace determination of molybdenum, the actual mechanism involved was studied. Electrochemical techniques, including dc tast polarography and cyclic voltammetry were employed. It is shown that, the cathodic wave of mol...

[ 2 ] - An Electrochemical Study of the S-Derivatives of 2-Amino Cyclopentene-1-Dithiocharboxylic Acid in Aqueous Ethanolic Media

A systematic study on the electrochemical behavior of the S-derivatives of 2-amino cyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylic acid (ACDA) has been carried out in aqueous ethanolic solutions by means of polarography, coulometry and voltammetry. All the compounds studied exhibited a well defined anodic wave corresponding to a diffusion controlled process. Controlled potential coulometry gave n=1 per mol...

[ 3 ] - Solvent Extraction Spectrophotometric Determination of Vanadium Using Sodium Salt of 2-Mercapto-Pyridine-N-Oxide as a Reagent

A solvent-extraction spectrophotometric technique is proposed as a new method for determination of trace quantities of vanadium. Sodium salt of 2-mercapto-pyridine-N-oxide (thione) forms a complex with vanadium instantaneously. The purple 1:2 complex is formed of pH 2.3, easily extracted in chloroform and shows strong absorbance at 500 nm. The extracted complex is found to obey Beer's law i...
