A 1,3-dihexadecyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-3-ium-tetraphenylborate (DHBI-TPB) ion-pair implemented in DHBI-TPB surfactant sensor was used for the potentiometric quantification of anionic surfactants in detergents and commercial household care products. The DHBI-TPB ion-pair was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and computational analysis which revealed a crucial contribution of the C–H∙∙∙π contacts for the optimal complex formation. The DHBI-TPB sensor potentiometric response showed excellent analytical properties and Nernstian slope for SDS (60.1 mV/decade) with LOD 3.2 × 10−7 M; and DBS (58.4 mV/decade) with LOD 6.1 × 10−7 M was obtained. The sensor possesses exceptional resistance to different organic and inorganic interferences in broad pH (2–10) range. DMIC used as a titrant demonstrated superior analytical performances for potentiometric titrations of SDS, compared to other tested cationic surfactants (DMIC > CTAB > CPC > Hyamine 1622). The combination of DHBI-TPB sensor and DMIC was successfully employed to perform titrations of the highly soluble alkane sulfonate homologues. Nonionic surfactants (increased concentration and number of EO groups) had a negative impact on anionic surfactant titration curves and a signal change. The DHBI-TPB sensor was effectively employed for the determination of technical grade anionic surfactants presenting the recoveries from 99.5 to 101.3%. The sensor was applied on twelve powered samples as well as liquid-gel and handwashing home care detergents containing anionic surfactants. The obtained results showed good agreement compared to the outcomes measured by ISE surfactant sensor and a two-phase titration method. The developed DHBI-TPB surfactant sensor could be used for quality control in industry and has great potential in environmental monitoring.

Compounds of the type CpRu(PPh3)(L)(SH) [L = PPh3 (2), CO (4)] react with N-alkyl and -arylsulfinyl phthalimides 3a-f to give the chiral complexes CpRu(PPh3)(L)[S-S(O)-R] (L = PPh3, 5a: R = C4H9,5b: R = C12H25,5d: R = C18H37,5e: R = Tol; L = CO, 6a: R = C4H9,6b: R = C12H25,6c: R = C16H33,6d: R = C18H37,6f: R = CH2Ph). With 6a-c diastereoselectivities of 5:2, with 6d 5:1, and with 6f 10:3, respectively, are observed. The compounds 5,6 are characterized by their spectroscopic data; the X-ray structural determination of u-6f shows a sulfur-sulfur bond length of 208,6 (3) pm, the dihedral angle Ru-S(1)-S(2)-C(25) is 170,8°. Extended Hückel calculations give information about the rotational barrier around the S-S(O) axis.
