Spectrophotometric Determination of Co(II) in Vitamin B12 Using 2-(biphenyl-4-yl)-3-((2-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) hydrazono)methyl) imidazo [1,2-a]pyridine as Ligand by Flow Injection–Merging Zone Analysis
Abstract
Nitro Schiff base ligand of 2-(biphenyl-4-yl)-3-((2-(2,4dinitrophenyl) hydrazono) methyl) imidazo [1,2-a] pyridine (BDNHMIP) was synthesized, identified and used in spectrophotometric determination of Co(II) at 530nm. The suggested method of Co(II)determination was performed at optimum analytical parameters of 3.2 ml/min flow rate, 137.4 L ligand volume, 98.1 L Co(II) volume, 1minutes residence time in reaction coil, and as a result 48 sample/hour of method throughput was accomplished. The proposedmethod performed linearity of 25-400 ppm, molar absorptivity coefficient of 121.5704103 L.mol.1cm1, and L.O.D of 2.28ppm. The suggested method was successful applied for determination of Co(II) content of vitamin B12 injection samples with high recovery of 99.5-100.3% and minimum relative error percent of -0.3 - 0.5%.
