Summary

A new method for the spectrophotometric determination of bismuth, cobalt and nickel after extraction of their xanthates into molten naphthalene is described. The optimum pH values are 2.4–4.5 for Bi, 7.5–9.0 for Co, 5.5–7.5 for Ni. The naphthalene containing the metal chelates is dissolved in chloroform, and the absorbance is measured against a reagent blank at 362, 350 and 420 nm for Bi, Co and Ni and respectively. Few ions interfere and the method has been applied successfully for the determination of these metal ions in various complex materials.

Zusammenfassung

Eine neue Methode für die spektrophotometrische Bestimmung von Wismuth, Kobalt und Nickel nach Extraktion ihrer Xanthate mit geschmolzenem Naphthalin wurde beschrieben. Das optimale pH für Wismut beträgt 2,4–4,5, für Kobalt 7,5–9,0 und für Nickel 5,5–7,5. Das die Metallchelate enthaltende Naphthalin wird in Chloroform gelöst und die Extinktion gegen eine Reagens-Leerlösung bei 362, 350 bzw. 420 nm für Bi, Co bzw. Ni gemessen. Nur wenige Ionen stören. Das Verfahren wurde mit Erfolg zur Bestimmung der genannten Ionen in verschiedenen komplexen Gemischen angewandt.
