Summary

It has been found that in alkaline triethanolamine medium the complex of bivalent manganese is oxidised by hexacyanoferrate(III), hydrogen peroxide or lead dioxide to the red-coloured complex of MnIV, which can be titrated potentiometrically with ferrous salt solution (MnIV→ MnIII and MnIII→ MnII). The stability of this complex has been studied in dependence on the oxidant employed, and it has been found that lead dioxide is best suited for this oxidation process. Similarly the oxidation of the complex CoII→ CoIII has been studied in the same medium, and conditions have been found for the reductometric determination of the CoIII complex formed.

The possibilities for determining manganese in the presence of cobalt and of other accompanying elements are discussed. The results obtained have been applied to the determination of manganese in ores and alloys.

Zusammenfassung

Bei Untersuchungen zum Oxydations-Reduktions-Verhalten von Mangan und Kobalt in alkalischer Triäthanolaminlösung wurde gefunden, daß der MnII-Komplex durch Hexacyanoferrat(III), Wasserstoffperoxid oder Bleidioxid zum rotgefärbten MnIV-Komplex oxydiert wird, der potentiometrisch mit, FeII-Lösung titriert werden kann (MnIV→ MnIII; MnIII→ MnII). Die Stabilität des Komplexes wurde in Abhängigkeit von der Art des Oxydationsmittels geprüft und Bleidioxid als am günstigsten gefunden. Analog wurden auch die Oxydation des CoII- zum CoIII-Komplex untersucht und Bedingungen zur reduktometrischen Bestimmung des letzteren ausgearbeitet. Die Möglichkeiten zur Manganbestimmung in Gegenwart von Kobalt sowie anderen Begleitelementen werden diskutiert, und als praktische Anwendung wird die Manganbestimmung in Erzen und Legierungen beschrieben.
