Popis: A Spectrophotometric method is presented for the microanalysis of analytically important thiosulfate and tetraphenylborate anions in an aqueous solution. The method is based on ligand exchange in a dynamic approach incorporating a solid reagent mercuric chloranilate. The common cations Na+, K+, Al3+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ do not interfere and the anions CH3COO−, C2O42−, SO4−, C3H4OH-(COO)33− and NO3− do not cause any adverse effects. The heavy metals Pb2+, Cd2+, Fe2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ cause a negative interference while the halogens and SCN− type of anions give a positive interference. The method is sensitive up to 5 ppm of tetraphenyl-borate anion and 10 ppm of the thiosulfate anion.
