Rr. Sharma et Dp. Dave, SOLVENT-EXTRACTION AND SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF COBALT(II)WITH ISONITROSOPROPIOPHENONE, Indian journal of chemistry. Sect. A: Inorganic, physical, theoretical & analytical, 36(7), 1997, pp. 629-630
Isonitrosopropiophenone (HINPP) is proposed as a new reagent for extra
ction and spectrophotometric determination of Co(II). The reagent reac
ts with Co(II) to give a yellow coloured complex which can be quantita
tively extracted into chloroform at pH 8.0. Molar absorptivity at 355
nm is 2.9466x10(3)1. mol(-1) cm(-1). Beer's law is obeyed in the range
0.5-7 ppm. The proposed method has been used for analysis of Co(II) i
n real samples.
