Summary
Catechol was determined on the microscale by potentiometric titration with lead nitrate. Solutions were buffered to pH 9.5 with borate buffer. Emf's were monitored with a lead ion-selective electrode and a single junction reference electrode. Up to an eightfold excess of hydroquinone or resorcinol can be tolerated.
Zusammenfassung
Mikromengen Brenzcatechin wurden mit Bleinitrat potentiometrisch titriert. Die Lösungen wurden mit Borat auf pH 9,5 gepuffert. Die EMK wurde mit einer blei-spezifischen Elektrode gemessen. Hydrochinon und Resorcin stören bis zum achtfachen Überschuß nicht.
