Spectrophotometric Quantitative Analysis of Cu(II) Ion Using N,N'-bis(4-methoxysalicylidene)phenylendiamine

A $N_2O_2$ Schiff base ligand, N,N'-bis(4-methoxysalicylidene)phenylendiamine (4-$CH_3O$-salphen) was synthesized. Using the 4-$CH_3O$-salphen, the spectrophoto-metric quantitative analysis of Cu(II) ion in aqueous solution was performed. The optimum condition for the quantitative analysis of Cu(II) ion was determined as the following; the concentration of 4-$CH_3O$-salphen is $2.0{\times}10^{-4}\;mol/L$, ratio between solvent DMSO and water is 50/50(v/v), pH is 5.5. After 1 hr water incubation at $55^{\circ}C$ and then the absorbance measurements at 388 nm, a calibration curve (${\varepsilon}=3.6{\times}10^4\;mol^{-1}cm^{-1}$) with a correlation coefficient ($R^2$=0.9963) was obtained in this condition. Using this optimized condition, the quantitative analysis of Cu(II) ion was performed with various samples such as hot spring water, semiconductor factory waste water and treated water from sewage treatment plant. The average value of the measured values agreed well with standard value with a range of 0.6~5.4%. The limit of determination was 31.77 ng/mL ($5.0{\times}10^{-7}\;mol/L$).

N,N'-bis(4-methoxysalicylidene)phenylendiamine를 이용한 Cu(II) 이온의 분광학적 분석

$N_2O_2$계 시프염기 리간드인 N,N'-bis(4-methoxysalicylidene)phenylendiamine(4-$CH_3O$-salphen)을 합성하였다. 합성한 4-$CH_3O$-salphen을 이용하여 분광광도법으로 수용액 중의 Cu(II)이온 정량실험을 시도하였다. Cu(II)이온 정량을 위한 최적 실험조건을 구한 결과, 4-$CH_3O$-salphen 농도는 $2.0{\times}10^{-4}\;mol/L$, 용매 DMSO와 물의 비율은 50/50(v/v), pH는 5.5에서, 온도는 $55^{\circ}C$에서 한 시간정도를 물중탕하고, 시료의 흡광도는 388 nm였고, 그 조건에서 검량곡선을 작성하였다. 작성된 검량곡선(${\varepsilon}=3.6{\times}10^4\;mol^{-1}cm^{-1}$)은 $R^2$=0.9963의 상관계수 값을 나타내었다. 이상의 최적화된 실험조건을 이용하여 온천수, 반도체 공장폐수 및 하수 처리장의 처리수를 채취하여 Cu(II)이온을 각각 정량 분석한 결과는 측정 평균값이 기준 값에 대하여 0.6~5.4% 범위에서 잘 일치 하였고, 정량한계는 31.77 ng/mL($5.0{\times}10^{-7}\;mol/L$)이었다.
