Abstract
The synthesis and analytical properties of dimedone bisguanylhydrazone (DIBG) are described for the first time. DIBG is oxidized by aerial oxygen and the reaction is catalysed by copper(II). The catalytic effect of copper(II) is increased by the presence of pyridine. Kinetic methods are described for determining trace amounts of copper(II) and pyridine. The reaction is followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the rate of change of absorbance at 550 nm. The calibration graphs are linear in the range 0.6–9.5 μg for copper(II) and 0.2–8.8 mg for pyridine. The methods have been applied to the determination of copper in galena and of pyridine in piperidine and isoamyl alcohol. The kinetic parameters of the reaction have been determined.
