Abstract

An extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of nickel based on its extraction into chloroform with 2-(2-benzothiazolylazo)-5-dimethylaminobenzoic acid has been developed. The reagent is very sensitive and reacts with nickel(II) to form a stable blue 1:2(Ni:reagent) complex that can be extracted into chloroform. The apparent molar absorptivity of the nickel(II) complex was 1.17×105 dm3 mol-1 cm-1 at 635 nm in chloroform. The reagent is relatively selective for nickel(II): interference from iron can be removed with cupferron and other interfering ions can be masked with Tiron. Therefore, almost all metal ions except cobalt(II) do not interfere. Microgram amounts of nickel in steel and residual fuel oil have been determined satisfactorily.
