New Analytical Technique For The Determination Of Mercury (II) By Synergistic Extractive Spectrophotometric Method With N'',N'''-Bis[(E)-(4-fluorophenyl)methylidene] Thiocarbonohydrazide
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
A new technique was developed for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of mercury (II) by using newly synthesized chromogenic reagent N'',N'''-bis[(E)-(4-fluorophenyl)methylidene] thiocarbonohydrazide bis-(4-fluoroPM)TCH. It forms yellow colored ternary complex with mercury(II) in presence pyridine having composition 1:1:1 (M:Reagent:Py) in acidic pH range 1.7-3.7. The reagent is highly sensitive and selective towards mercury(II). So spectrophotometric method of mercury(II) is found to be very rapid, reliable and show synergistic effect. Absorption of colored organic layer in iso amyl acetate is measured with reagent blank at λmax 375 nm. Pyridine showed synergistic effect with reagent by the adduct formation in organic phase. Beer’s law was obeyed in the concentration range 0.25 to 3.5 µg mL-1 for mercury (II). Molar absorptivity and sandell’s sensitivity values of mercury(II)-bis-(4-fluoroPM)TCH-Py complex are 0.50127x105 lit mol-1 cm -1 and 0.004 µg cm-2 , respectively. The selectivity of the method was checked by using various foreign ions. The composition of the complex was determined by slope ratio method, mole ratio method and Job’s method of continuous variation. The colour of ternary complex was stable for more than 12 h. Various factors influencing on degree of comlexation are the effect of pH, reagent concentration, synergent concentration, equilibrium time, solvent were determined. The method was applicable for determination of mercury(II) in binary mixture, ternary mixture, ayurvedic sample, homoeopathic sample, industrial waste water, spiked water and dental unit waste water.
