Abstract
ABSTRACT The complex equilibria of iron(III) with 2-hydroxy-3-pyridinol (HHP), and 2-mercapto-3-pyridinol (MHP) were studied spectrophotometrically in 40% (v/v) ethanol and an ionic strength of 0.1M (NaCIO4). The complexation reactions were demonstrated and characterized using graphical logarithmic analysis of the absorbance pH-graphs. After considering all the different parameters a simple, rapid, sensitive and selective method for spectrophotometric determination of trace levels of iron(III) was proposed based on the formation of (Fe -MHP) complex at pH 2.5 (λmax = 640 nm, ɛ = l×104 L mol−1 cm−). The interference of a large number of foreign ions was investigated. The method has been applied successfully for the determination of iron content in some multivitamins with mineral preparations and infant milk products.
