Extraction of 2-(2-pyridylazo)-1-naphthol-4-sulfonate anion with solvated hydroxonium ion was carried out using 14 kinds of alcohols and 1-octanol/octane mixed solvents as a solvent at 25 degrees C. Alcohols are 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, 1-heptanol, 2-heptanol, 3-heptanol, 4-heptanol, 1-octanol, 2-octanol, 3-octanol, 1-nonanol, 2-nonanol, 3-nonanol, 5-nonanol and 1-decanol. Among them, 1-octanol w...

The acidity constants of 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR, Scheme 1) in binary mixtures of methanol–water at 25 ◦C and an ionic strength of 0.1 M have been determined spectrophotometrically. DATa ANalysis (DATAN) program applied for determination of acidity constants. As percent of methanol increases in solvent mixtures the pKa constants also increased. There is linear relationship between acidi...

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer in complexes of semiconductor CdSe/ZnS quantum dots with molecules of heterocyclic azo dyes, 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol and 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol, formed at high quantum dot concentration in the polymer pore track membranes were studied by steady-state and transient PL spectroscopy. The effect of interaction between the complexes and free quantum do...

Of two sensitive complexometric reagents for the colorimetry of serum zinc that we investigated, one, 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol (Br-PADAP), was found to be a potentially useful compound for trace-metal determinations. It has a high molar absorptivity (120 000 L mol-1 cm-1) but is not convenient to use because it is not very soluble in water. The other reagent, a related pyri...
