3-Pyridyl-N,N-bis[(8-quinolyl)amino]methane was studied by DC polarography, coulometry, cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse polarography in a system comprising Britton-Robinson buffer and 15 vol.% ethanol at pH 7.0. The nature of the waves was investigated, and the reduction mechanism is suggested. DPP was also used for a quantitative determination of the substance, and a limit of detection of 3 μmol l-1 was obtained.

DC polarography, TAST polarography, differential pulse polarography, polarography with superimposed alternating current, slow cyclic voltammetry with a hanging Hg drop electrode and a Pt electrode, rapid cyclic voltammetry with a hanging Hg drop, and coulometry were used to study the electrochemical reduction of p-methoxy- and p-nitrobenzenediazonium cations in aprotic medium. A reduction mechanism involving two separate one-electron steps is proposed, the first of which being complicated by adsorption and follow-up chemical reaction leading to evolution of nitrogen. The basicity of the aprotic solvents, expressed by donor numbers according to Gutman, influences the reduction mechanism of these cations.

The polarographic reduction of N,N-dimethyl-4-amino-4'-hydroxyazobenzene in water-methanol medium was investigated. Evidence is presented for adsorption of the depolarizer on the electrode, and a reduction mechanism is proposed. Conditions are indicated for the determination of this compound in the concentration range 10-4-10-6 mol/l by d.c. polarography, 10-5 to 3 . 10-7 mol/l by Tast polarography, and 10-5-3 . 10-8 mol/l by differential pulse polarography.

A new and simple differential pulse polarographic method has been developed for the trace determination of arsenic. When selenite was added into solutions of some ions such as copper, lead, cadmium, zinc, and chromium, their differential pulse polarographic peak decreased. A new reduction peak appeared at a more positive potential than the ion present and it was always higher than the corresponding reduction peak of the ion. Thus, we made use of this interference for the trace determination of As(III). By the addition of selenite onto As(III), a new As−Se intermetallic compound peak was formed at about −0.35 V (pH at about 1.0–2.0). The trace arsenic concentration could be determined simply from this peak by the addition of standard arsenic into a polarographic cell. In the presence of large amounts of selenite, 2 × 10−7 mol/L As(III) could be determined from this peak precisely. With the newly established method, the limit of detection was 1 × 10−8 mol/L (S/N = 3). Among the most common cations and anions, only Cd−Se and Pb−Se intermetallic compound peaks had an overlap with the As−Se peak. This interference could be eliminated simply by the addition of EDTA. This method was applied successfully for the determination of arsenic in a digested beer sample.

Abstract A prior method for determination of glyphosate in water samples has been modified to accommodate samples of crops and soils. Differential pulse polarography as the determinative step enables analysis in an aqueous medium, which is important during extraction of this compound. Residues are cleaned up and concentrated by ion exchange on a strong basic resin in OH- form. The method is rapid, is applicable to a relatively broad selection of sample types, and gives recoveries consistently better than 60% with good precision. The main shortcoming of the method is that the limit of detection of 0.5-1.0 ppm may sometimes be inadequate. The metabolite, aminomethyl phosphonic acid, is not detected.

Tast polarography, differential pulse polarography and cyclic voltammetry were applied to the examination of 7 derivatives of 3-carboxy-4-hydroxy-6-acetylaminoazobenzene with H, CH3, OCH3, Cl, COCH3, NO2 and NHCOCH3 substituents in position 4'. A general reduction mechanism was suggested for the substances. The half-wave potentials obtained from tast polarographic measurements were correlated with the Hammett σ constants of the substituents in the para-position. The plot of this dependence is linear, which suggests that the reduction mechanism is identical within the entire series. The optimum conditions for quantitation of the substances were found within the concentration regions of 1 .10-4 to 1 .10-6 mol l-1 for tast polarography and 1 .10-4 to 1 .10-7 mol l-1 for differential pulse polarography.

A method is described for determining total platinum content in urine, blood plasma and tissues of patients or experimental animals receiving cis-dichlorodiamineplatinum(II). The method is based on drying and combustion of the biological material in a muffle furnace. The product of the combustion is dissolved successively in aqua regia, hydrochloric acid and ethylenediamine. The resulting platinum-ethylenediamine complex yields a catalytic current at a dropping mercury electrode allowing to determine platinum by differential pulse polarography. Platinum levels of c. 50-1 000 ng per ml of the biological fluid or per 0.5 g of a tissue can readily be analyzed with a linear calibration.

Conditions were found for the determination of 6-mercaptopurine (I) and 6-thioguanine (II) by TAST polarography, differential pulse polarography and fast-scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limits were 10-6, 8 . 10-8, and 6 . 10-8 mol l-1, respectively. A further lowering of the detection limit to 2 . 10-8 mol l-1 was attained by preliminary accumulation of the determined substances at the surface of a hanging mercury drop.

The polarographic reduction of the title azo dye was studied and optimal conditions were found for its analytical utilization in the concentration range 1 . 10-6 - 1 . 10-7 mol l-1 using differential pulse polarography and 1 . 10-6 - 1 . 10-8 mol l-1 using fast scan differential pulse voltammetry or linear scan voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. When the latter technique is combined with adsorptive accumulation of the studied substance on the surface of the hanging mercury drop, the determination limit can be further decreased to 3 . 10-9 mol l-1.
