Abstract
Bis(15-crown-5 ether) derivatized from a xanthene-4,5-dicarboxylic aci d skeleton was studied as an ionophore for a new K+-selective electrod e. The polymeric liquid membrane based on this ionophore exhibits Nern stian behavior and optimization of experimental conditions for potenti ometric analysis offers a wide linear dynamic range, reasonable detect ion limit, good durability and hysteresis within a limited error. Due to the well-preorganized structure, the selectivity over Na+ is compar able to those of commercialized K+-selective ionophores and the interf erences by some cations such as Rb+ and Cs+ are reduced. Except slight ly slow response, the enhanced recognition ability is reminiscent of t he natural antibiotic valinomycin.
