Abstract
3, 4-Dihydroxybenzaldehydeisonicotinoylhydrazone was prepared, characterized with spectral analyses and used for developing a new method for the simple, sensitive and rapid spectrophotometric determination of vanadium(V) which gives maximum absorbance at wave length 360 nm. The metal ion gives a yellow colored complex with 3, 4-DHBINH in acetate buffer of pH 5.5 with 1:1 (metal:ligand) composition. The method obeys Beer’s law in the range 0.5–5.3 μg mL−1 of vanadium(V). The molar absorptivity and Sandell’s sensitivity were found to be 1.29 × 104 L mol−1 cm−1 and 0.003949 μg cm−2 respectively. The correlation co-efficient of the V(V)-3, 4-DHBINH complex was 0.992 which indicated an excellent linearity between the two variables. The repeatability of the method was checked by finding the relative standard deviation (RSD) as 0.424% (n = 5), and its detection limit 0.01677 μg mL−1 of vanadium(V). The instability constant of the method was calculated by Asmus’ method as 4.1666 × 10−3. The interfering effect of various cations and anions were also studied. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of vanadium(V) in environmental samples (water and soil) tobacco leaves and alloy samples. The validity of the method was tested by comparing the results with those obtained using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer.
