, rl single metals w+re determined vith a precision and accuracy
of 1%. The fo1lowing binary and ternary metal mixtures were aIso
determined with a precision of 1% and accuracy of 1-5% depending on the
systems: Cu-Pb~ Cu-Ni, ~b-~n, Cd-Zn, Cu-Zn and Cu-Pb-Zn. The effect of ;'

excess thenoyltrifluoroacetone,on the accuracy of the tltrations was also ;'
studied up to a mo1ar ratio of 10:1 for M(TTA)2/HTTA, and found to have

Ill. PRELIMINARY SURVEY ('
The polarographic b,havior was studied of several che~ating tl
agents that ~re extensively used for the solvent extraction of metals (3).
" In addition, t~eir chelat'es of sev:eral metals were similarly studied, as . )
well as nitrates ,or chlorides of· these metais. The solvents were
ethanol 1 ~~.
and ethanol-benzene mixtures. The polarograms were recarded at
25°C ~IO.5°C. The purpose of the study was to select one or two chelat
ing agents and metai chelates that had convenient'polarograms, for late~
detailed studies.
r The chelating agenl-s studied were: '~-quinolinol (oxine) ~ diphenylthioçarbazone (dithizoné), sodi~m diethYldithioca~bamate. J.-

polarograms are shown in Figure 1 a-i (see p. 15).
Next, polarogramt:i of Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb and Ni nitrates or,
chlorides were ob tained in e th,anol, and in e'thanol-ben:tene mixtures. l,· q;
They are shown in Figure 2 a-e. These are metais of ànalytical interest,
since the'quantitative determination and separation of,one fram the 1 1

stt,tdied next. They were obtained by mixing in a 1: 2 molar ratio a . " ~ ,

Some of' the waves obtained w;eI)e found to'be irreversible (for
the determination of th~ reversibility of the waves, see Appéndix 5). \
,Therefore, "starting potential" will hé used instead of l''half-wave 1
~ '1 potential" in the following descriptions.
As a result 'of this preliminary screening process, the meta!
chelates of oxine, sodium,diethy~dith~ocarbamate, 2-thenoyltrifluoro
'acetone and' 1-2-pyrfdylazo-2-naphthol wer~-c~osen for further study.
The sodium diethyldithiocarbamate was tentatively chosen as the titrant
1 for the proposed amperometric titrations. The following systems were
investigate~ with respe~t to the chelate-exchange reactions that occurred
in them:
-CA). Reaction of the oxlnates of Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb and Ni wUh sodium
diethyldith1o~arbamate in an ethano~-pe,z~ne ~lxture. The extent 1 l_
of the reaction \l1as followèd by measu;ing the anodic curr1ent of the
diethYldithloca~bamate.~ ft was found that the reaction either
proceeded very S~oWly,. ï eise the metai oxinates were 50 stable
,-
that ~e oxinate ion cannat be replaced by the diethylditpiocarbamate
!Qn. This ~ystJm 'waal therefore abandoned.
(B) Reaction Of the CU/Pb, Ca, Zn and Ni chelates of 1-2-pyrt!dylazo-2-k, "
naphth~l,' ,with sodium 1iethyldithiOCB:r~amate ~n an (eth,a~ol-ben.zene
mixture. The reactio~ was observed t~ proceed rapidly, as evidenced
by the change of col~~ in the reaction mixture as the, titrant was
addèd,' (the metal chelates of 1~2-pytidylazo-2-napllthol are -highly . 1
coloréd while some metal~dietb;ldithioJarbamates are colorIess).

Unfortunately, however, the reduct,ion 'wave of 1-2-pyridylazo-
2-naphthol occurred in the region where the metal chelates were
also reduced. Since in a normal
, chelattn~ resgent in the organic
would not be a very practical procedure to use, The amou ~
chelate can in thi~ case be determined by ~asuring the e
titrant added', Le., by measuring the anodic current of the \
f
diethyldithiocarbamate. However, this method would nat be selective,
in that only the total metai concentration would be determined, .
whéreas a PifPose of 'the present work was ta titrate sequent~ally
two or more metal chelates, A titration graph ois shown fn Figure 4."
Study on this system'was discontinued at this point. Neverthe-
less, instead of an amperometric titration, a spectrophotometric
titration of this chelatE!:-exchange ,reac,tion may be feasible. r

metal-TTA complexes are shown in Fi~ure 5 à-e. The titrat10ns were ,,' 1
followed either py measuring ehe decrease in the polarographic 1 ( l "ï '
current of the metal-TTA complex, or use the-incre~se in tne current
of~the metal-DDC complex, or the increase in thé anodic current of
i h ,l' NADDC w en this titrant was added,in excess. ,
~ DME was used as the warking electrode fot~ost systems. <;,
H~wever. for c,e:rt~in systems, the RPE was used. In both cases, a
satu~ated calomel electrode (SCE) was used as the reference eleet-i

The reaction rates of the metal-TTA complexefo with NaDDC were
found to be faàt~ , ~--Moreover, the~e was little or no cur~ature
of the ',titration graphs, showing that therè .... a
r re1atively large equilibrium constant for the exchange reaetion.

Therefore this pa.rticular syste$,- namely metabJI'TA complexes with
, :tjaDDC as titrant, appeared promising for the practical application 'f
of amperometry. Consequently, .it was s tudied in d~tail, p{lrti~ularly "

: ( . 2-Thenoyltrifluoroacetone was introduced as an analytie~l
ographie ana~ysis. He studied both the spectrophotometrie and the
polarographic beh~vior, as weIl as the dissociation equilibr~a of r . solutions of various pH values. the reagent in buffered
~t forms.chelates with many meta!s and it is a valuable reagent
for the solven~ extraction of many meta! ions. A summary of RTTA
extraction ~oe~ficients in b~nzene was giy~n ~~ P9skan~er and
Foreman (34).
1 Most metals form stable complexes with NaDDC. T}le reagen.t was
first introduced-by Delepine (43) for the determination of copper.

b. Procedure for the amperometriê standardization of NaDDC us~ng a

Copper nitrate in O.LM LiCl in ethanol gave-a reduction wave
which started at -O.20V versus SCE at a dropping mercury electr9de,
while that ,~f Cu(DDC)2 started a~ ~O.40V (see Figure lOa~ :' 58)._
Therefore, the titration Of~U(N03)2 with N~DDC could be'followed
by measuring the decrdase ~in the diffusion c~rrent of ,CU,NO~) 2' . • ( ,..,.
Beyond the end yoint of the titra~iont an anodic current d~e to 1
the excess NaDDC occurred in this region and could be measured.
The slope of these two lines changed at-the end point. This
poin.t indicated the equivalence point.
An aliquot of the standard copper solutio~ to -be titrated
was transfe~red to the sample compartment of the polarographit.

'~iv • Ni (TTA) 2 Il The sy~~em was treated in the- same way as that of Cd (TTA) 2
except that the voltages were at different valùes; the reduction
of Ni(TTA)2 occurred at a more negative potentia1 than Cd(TTA)2
(Figure 15).
v. Zn (TTA) 2
The reduction wave due to Zn(TTA)2 was quite drawn out and
merged with the reduction wave of the RTTA (Figu~e l6a). The re
fore the fi~ration could be followed only by the increase in the
'current of the anodic wave when excess titrant was added
(Figure 161ï» • 1

Results for a1l of the abov,è ~ystems are r~corded in Table 5 (p. 74).
vi. Effect of e~cess RTTA reagent on the accuracy of amperometric
titrations of metal-TTA compl~xes in ethano~-benzene 1 •
mixtures, wiV a standard soluti.on of NaDD:~, in ethanol"
The effect o~cess RTTA reagent on th~ accuracy of the Il
/
amperometric titrations of metal-TTA complexes was studied.
This work is particularly important for the praétical applica-
tion of t~e method, since in a normal extraction procedure '
there would "be an exceSB of HTTA present in the organic phase
prior to the titration.
Excess RTTA_w~~ added to the/metal-TTA solutions and
amperometric titrations were carried out as in the procedures
outlined above. The results are shawn in Table 6 (p. 75). , '

ii. Zn(TTA) 2
Zn(TTA)2 when titrated with NaDDC gave an anodic wave at a
more positive potential than the anodic peak due to the excess ,
titrant. The resolution of the peaks due to Zn(DDC)2 and NaDDC ,-
was found ta depend on the supporting eleetrolyte used. Lithium
chl~ride gave better resol,ution, 'than Et4NCl (see' Figure 18 and

As in the case 6f Pb(TTA)2-Zn(TTA)2' a D.C.polarogram did
not give good resolution of the Zn(DDC) 2 wave, from that due to:
-NaDDC. Therefore the total metal content could not be determined
/ amperometrically by D.C.polarography. However, A. C. polarogra~/) ,
l
could be used because then these t~o anodie waves 'were resolved
(Figure 26)._' The total metal content ~as then determined as in
the case of thé 'above b;l.nary mixtures.
In order ta determine the content of one of the/two metals
in the titrated binary mixture, \)

at the end of the titration was obtained. 1 0 • ( ) The campI ex Cd DDC 2 /
has a reduction wave starting at -0.70V (see D.C.po1arogram in

determined from the diffusion ~urre~t of the Cd(DDC)2 ~ave. The 1

Procedure for the amper?metric titration of metal-TTA systems ~Y

Each of the complexes Cu(TT~2' Pb(TTA)2. Cd(TTA)2' Ni(TTA)2'

separately w~th a standard NaDDC solution in ethanol. The
analyte wAs O.lM in LiCI, with LiOR added ta provide tpe require
pH, and these also served as the supporting electrolyte. The
cûrrent-volt~ge curve was' recorded from +O.10V to(-O.40V versus
SCE.
At pH values above 7:0, none of the metal-TTA complexes . i
produced a wave ~,the range O.OV to +1.OV versus SèE.

The current-voltage c~rve obtained )during ~he titration of ~ ~II ~F. "
Cu(TTA) 2 with NaDDe was found to depend on the pR of the solution:
With O.lM LiCI, and at a 'pH less than 8.5, an ox'idation wave
appeared which started at +O.50V and reached it~ diffusion value
at +O.7QV versus ,SCE, when the Cb:D~~ r~tio was less than 1:1.
As more DDC was added, the value of the.diffusion current at , ,
+O.70V did not change. However,'a shift of ,the wave to less
positive val~es wasl~b8~rved. Thus, ~hen the ratio ~Cu:DDC had
reached 1:2~ the wave started at +O.jsv and reached its .

For solut~on havin~ a pH les~ than 8.5, the wave which f

Cu(TTA)(DDC) mixed complex, rand tna one starting at +O.30V was

"
There was sorne slight evi~ence'of a wave due to t4e oxida
tion of thelb-DDC complex (Figure 28a). However, this wave f
occurred atsuch a high positive potentiaI th~t with the present
system, its diffusion'current W8S not regiatered before the

possible to take ad1/antage of this fact to detemine the copper
alone in the mixture. by a titration. because the oxidation wave
due to Cu-DDC :bmplex was found to increasb ste:dily until the
end point for both metais was reached. ,This could be due to
b~th metal-TTA being titrated simultaneously, Le. the e9ui1i-
brium constants Kp and KZ for the foIlowing ,reactions: r , l ,1 ' ~ K

The total metal content of each solution was determined by
mea~ur1ng. ... 'ihê diffusion current of the wave of the tl~rant NaDDC,
for several increment~_ of it after the end point. A titration
graph ls shown in Figure 30.
The Cu(DDC)2 content"of the titrated solution was th en
determlned by measurlng its absorbance, and the Ni content was l ,
found from the difference of the total metai and that of Cu alone.
Mo1'lr ratios of' 1:1 and 10:1 for Cu:Ni were taken for
analysis. Th.~ interf,~rence of Ni(DDC)2 witb the absorbance of
the sought-for Cu(DDC) 2 prevented the use of DlUch high~r propor-,
tions of N~. Thus,! for a 1:10 Cu:Ni mo1ar ratio, interference 1

are shaWn in Table 10 (p. 122).

In this titration. CU W(iS, (ound ta be titrated before Pb.
-By measuring the current at +0.60V for each incrbment of NaDDC, II
a titration graph as shown in Figure 31 was obtained. There are
four straight-line portions, and the intersection of eacfi pair
th en gave three equivalence points. The tirst break in the 1
grap? corresponded to a 1:1 molar ratio of Cu:titra~t; and the
seco~d ta a 1:2 molar ratio. By comparing this part of the
graph with that obtained on ti~rating Cu(TTA~ alone (Figure 27b, p. 107),
one can conclude that Cu (TTA) (DDC) was first formed, and it -
was then converted ta the Cu (DDC) 2 ~omplex on the add:[tion of
more titrant. Beyond th~ 1:2 molar ratio of Cu:DDC, Pb(TTA)2
started to be titrat~d.' Therefore"the third break in the . 1 -
titratfon graph. corresponded to the total metal content. \ 1 1

Cu(TTA)(DDC) and Cu(D~)2 complexes. The Slope of the third 1
str~ight line was smaller than that of in the case of. Cu-Pb. - 1
The s1ight1y higher slope in this latter system canob~ accounted
for ~y the tailing in this region of the Pb(DDC)2: wave which
was not present in the Zn(DDC)2 system. A typical titration
graph is shawn in FiguI'é'32 (p. 119).
Thë* tit·ration w~s able ta be carried out when the molar
ratio Cu:Zn,was between 1:,1 and 1:5 without any problem. When
the ratio of,Cu:Zn reached-5:1, it was difficult to recognize
the th.ird straight-line portion on thè:titration graph due to
the relatiyely large curvature during the titration of' the Zn.. / '
This uncertainty is reflected in the relatively large error j/ recorded ij Table, 10 ~- -j ,
/ "
/ 1
By the titration of this pair, it was posslb,le only to A " ;, 1
ob tain, the total metal concentration with a RPE. A typical
titrsyion graph was simila!,to that for thf Cu-Ni system , - ;;
(Figure 30b). At a pH above Il, Cd(TTA)2 alone i8 titrated b~
NaDDC. However, it was nat poEfsible to monitor the excess NaDDC' .(
in the solution sfter the cadmium end point, beèause the oxida-
tion wave of NaDDC became drawn out and ~erged with the solvent
deco.mposition wave (this latter wave was shifted to., a less _
" positi~e value at high pH).
Results for these binary metal-TTA systems are give~ in

c. Ternary metal system
Only one three-metal-TTA system was attempted, namely tha~ ,,-
of CU(TTA)2-Pb(~A)2-zn(TT{~2.)1A mol;; ratio 1:1:1 for Cu:Pb:Zn - .
was subjected to analysis using the proceùure described in
Section IV.C.l.c. The solvent was a 1:1 (v/v) ethano1-benzene r
mixture. A' RPE was used. and the titrat.ion with a standard'
solution of NàDDC in ethanol was followed amperometrica1ly •
By measuring the increase in the current at a voltage ~f
'+O.60V, the titration graph shown in Figure 33 w~s obtained. , "
The three metal-TTÂ complexes ~ere found to be titrated
successively; Cu (TTA) 2 was th~ first to be' titrated, and it gave
two breaks correspo?dingto the Cu (TTA) (DDC) and CU(DDC)2 complex
respectively. The second break was taken as the equivalence 1
point for Cu. The third break indica~ed the end point for ,
..-' " Cu+Pb, and the fourth for CU+Pb+Zn. Therefore, one tit;:ration .r'
'could give the three individual m~tal concent~at1ons • Vari~~s metal ratios were tried, and the results are ~own

in Table Il! The limits possible'for these ratio were the s~e l '
as those in the binary metai systems discussed in the preceding

a1so desirable that the condition of A the eleetrode surface be reproducib1e, .-

.dropping mercury e1eetrode, sinee .eaeh mercury drop has a new surface.) , . , JI 1
Adsorptioq~f gases, or the formatipn of a coating ~y the end-

1 <
used in this work 1s as follows (68): The electrode when not in use was stored j ,
in concentrated nitric acid. Before use, the electrode was washed w~ll
with distilled'water and then short-circuited against a reference SCE in /
an ~+r"7fr~e O.lM solution (}f perébloric 'acid until the cur!ent decreased 1 .,!,.' , .,
to tlearly zero. Th:ljs w,as referred to as a "clean electrode" by Kolthoff ~ ,
(61). This "c1ean e1ectrode" was then rinsed with distilled wât~r then , o
ethanol, and then placed in the titration cell containing the air-free , .J-~~'" Y
sampie. The applied potential was adjusted to -O.20V vfrsus SCE untii
~he cathodic c~rrent decayed t~ zero. This ensured the Femoval of any "
"
surface oxide present. The 'potential was th en ma~e slightly anodic-
(about +O.05V versus SCE)'unti1 the current decayed ta zero. This proce-
dure reoxidized any sorbed .hydrogen on the surface'. The electrode was
then ready for the analysis. Reproducible results were ohtained if the
procedure was fbllowed closely for e~ch ~nalysi8.

1. Pb (DDC) 2
----~_., .... ~ ..
, The Pb(DDC)2 complex gives a well-defined wave starting at
--0.70V, whicn"reaches its diffusion ~alue at -O.90V versus SCE.
Polarogràms with different concentrations of Pb(N03'2 ranging from
-6 5 1 l.OxlO to 1.0xlO- M with excess NaDDC present in ethan~l as solvent
were run in an ethanol or ethanol-benzene solution a.lM in LiCl and
C,orîtaining LiOH to buffer the solution to a pH of 8.0. The diffusion
current for each concentration of Pb(DDC)2 when plotted against the
number, of l1g of Pb added resulted in a linear calibration curve.
2. CU(DDC)2 and Cd(DDC)2
The calibratio~lcurves for Cu(DDC~2 and Cd(DDC)2 we~e obta~ned

An aliquot of a atandard eopper nitrate solution in ethanol was
transferred,to a 50-ml volrmetric flask. excess of Na~DC in ethano~ was added. Then O.lM LiCl in ethanol or ~:l 1thanol-benzene W~~ used tb dilute the resulting solution ta the mark. 'The absorbanee of the
.... resulting solution was measured against a conslsting of O.lM LiCl

spectrophotometer. The speetrum was seann d from 560nm to 340nm. On

Test fot Reversibility of the Electrode Reactions at the DME, of the
Chelating Agents and Metal Chela~es used '1~ the Present Work.
For a reversible electrpde reaction at 25°C, a polarographic 1
wave can be described algebraically by the follow1ng equat1on:
E • E + ~ log id - i 1/2 n i
where E • applied voltage (versus the SeE)'.
El/2 ~ half~ave potential
id • diffusion çurrent
i • current at any given value of E ,1
n • number of électrons involved in the electrode process

actiOn was considered to be l<eversible (Binee this ejluation was 'derived , , 1

SUGGESTION) FOR FUR THER WORK
The use of amperometry was shoWn in the presen~ work to be a .
feàs~b1e method ~or mortitoring che1~te-exchànge titrations in ethan01
and e~hano1-benzene BoIvent mixtures. Extensions of the work COU~d be:
,1. To app1y the procedure to the ana1ysb of actual a1:10ys, aince this .r " : ,
is an u1timate aim of ,the present line of investigation.
~2. To determine the effect of'other s01vents on the che1ate-exchange ~
3.
/1
, l ' titrations, since solvents other than benzene are also used in
so1vent~extraction separations.
To study the effect of other support~g
comPlex~Jg ~t high concentration (such
on the chelate-exchange,titrations.
