Abstract

A new calixarene hydroxamic acid, 25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxy-5,11,17,23-tetrakis ( N- p-chlorophenyl) calix[4]arene hydroxamic acid (CPCHA) is synthesized and used for the extraction and graphite furnace atomic absorption determination of zirconium(IV). The extract is also determined spectrophotometrically as CPCHA–SCN complex having maximum absorbance at 447 nm with molar absorptivity 9.4×10 3 l mol −1 cm −1. The Beer's law obeys in the range of 1.0–9.5 ppm of zirconium. The graphite atomic absorption (GFAAS) increases the sensitivity by about 50 folds. The method is applied to the trace determination of zirconium(IV) in standard samples.
