Popis: A simple, rapid, highly sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method for the determination of tungsten(VI) in trace amounts is developed using 3-hydroxy-2-(2'-thienyl)-4-oxo-4H-1-benzopyran (HTB) as a reagent for the complexation of metal ion and extracting the 1:2 (metal:ligand) complex into dichloromethane from 0.2 M HCl solution. It obeys Beer's law in the range 0-2.8 microg Wml(-1) with molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity at 415 nm as 6.45 x 10(4) L mol(-1) cm(-1) and 0.0029 microg W(VI) cm(-2), respectively. The method is free from the interference of a large number (39) of elements and handles satisfactorily the analysis of various samples of varying complexity.
