Abstract

AbstractVoltammetric behavior of titanium(IV) complexes with chromotropic acid, its azo‐derivatives: 2‐(4‐sulfophenylazo)‐1,8‐dihydroxy‐3,6‐naphthalenedisulfonic acid (SPANDS), chromotrope 2B, sulfonazo III and other azo‐compounds: calmagite, tropeoline O and kalces was investigated at a hanging mercury drop electrode. These complexes strongly adsorb onto the electrode, thus can be determined by an adsorptive stripping voltammetry (optimal pH about 6). At pH about 3 reduction current enhancement for Ti‐kalces complex was observed in the presence of chlorate ions. It is a rare example of a catalytic process with azo‐compound as a complexing agent. Signal for Fe‐calmagite complex reduction was also observed. Influence of foreign ions and the optimal conditions for titanium determination are described in detail. Additionally, a connection between obtained results and a structure of titanium complexes is discussed.
