Abstract
We have developed a highly sensitive kinetic thermometric method for the determination of traces of Mn(II) by its catalytic effect on the oxidation of Tiron by hydrogen peroxide. The reaction is monitored by the initial-rate method, which is applied to temperature-time curves. Under the optimum conditions established in preliminary experiments, manganese can determined over the range 1–120 ng/mL, with an rsd of 5.8% and 1.3% for S ng/mL and 40 ng/mL Mn(II), respectively. The proposed method is subjected to few interferences, the most serious of which is posed by Pb(II), with a tolerated ratio of 20∶1. The method was satisfactorily applied to the determination of Mn(II) in various types of sample (water, beer and wine).
Zusammenfassung
Es wurde eine hochempfindliche kinetische thermometrische Methode zur Bestimmung von Spuren an Mn(II) anhand dessen katalytischen Effektes auf die Oxidation von Tiron mit Wasserstoffperoxid entwickelt. Der Verlauf der Reaktion wurde über die Anfangsgeschwindigkeiten bei den Temperatur-Zeit-Kurven verfolgt. Unter in Vorexperimenten ermittelten optimalen Bedingungen kann Mangan im Bereich 1–120 ng/ml mit einer relativen Standardabweichnung von 5.8% bzw. 1.3% für 5 ng/ml bzw. 40 ng/ml Mn(II) bestimmt werden. Das Verfahren wird von einigen Kreuzwirkungen beeinflußt, von denen die intensivste der Einfluß von Pb(II) mit einem zulässigen Verhältnis von 20∶1 ist. Diese Technik konnte zur Bestimmung von Mn(II) in den verschiedenartigsten Proben (Wasser, Bier, Wein) zufriedenstellend angewendet werden.
