The synthesis of the electronic and infrared spectra of di-2-pyridyl ketone salicyloylhydrazone (DPKSH) and di-2-pyridyl ketone benzoylhy-drazone (DPKBH) is reported. Ultraviolet absorption spectra have been applied for determining the dissociation constants: DPKSH, pK1 = 3.5 and pK2 = 6.85; DPKBH, pK1 = 2.75 and pK2 = 10.6. These pK a values are interpreted as a function of the ortho-position of the OH group. Chelating properties of both tridentate ligands have been investigated. DPKSH forms a larger number of metal chelates in acidic media than does DPKBH. Also, it is concluded that DPKSH is a more suitable compound than DPKBH to preconcentrate and to determine heavy metal ion traces as it is inferred from the data obtained by flame AAS.
The properties of 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(2-hydroxybenzoylhydrazone) (DAPBSH) and 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(benzoy1hydrazone) (DAPBBH) are described. The reaction between Sb(l1l) ions and DAPBBH has been studied spectrophotometrically and the resulting orangeyellow Sb -DAPBBH complex extracted into 3-methylbutan-I -01 ( E = 1.13 x lo4 I mol-1 cm-I at 405 nm) from pH 0.5 to 5.3. The Sandell sensitivity is 0,001 1 pg cm-* in 50 ml of aqueous solution. The method described is highly selective and has been applied satisfactorily to the determination of antimony in non-ferrous alloys.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
