The speciation and equilibria during base decomposition of α-[PW12O40]3– have been determined using 31P and 183W NMR spectroscopy over the pH range 0.7–13.5. NMR spectroscopy was used to directly observe the polytungstate species in aqueous solution at high concentration (0.25 mol L–1) and follows the progressive decomposition of [PW12O40]3– to WO42– and PO43–. It was found unexpectedly in the pH range 1.2–2.3 that [PW12O40]3– did not decompose directly to [PW11O39]7– but first formed an equilibrium with [P2W18O62]6–, [P2W21O71]6–, and some new, stable, intermediate species before converting into α-[PW11O39]7–.

The speciation and equilibria of sodium dodecatungstosilicate has been determined using 183W nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy over the pH range 3-13.5. The use of NMR allowed the direct observation of polytungstate anions in aqueous solution and at high concentration (0.5 mol L-1). Using this technique, the speciation of α-[SiW12O40]4-, α-[SiW11O39]8-, α-[NaSiW11O39]7-, α-[H2W12O40]6-, [H8W11O40]6-, [H7W11O40]7-, [W7O24]6-, [H2W12O42]10-, and WO42- was quantified as a function of pH. This work has allowed stability constants for α-[SiW12O40]4- (log K 46) and α-[SiW11O39]8- (log K 86) to be estimated.

The speciation and equilibria of sodium metatungstate, Na6[H2W12O40], has been determined by a combination of 183W n.m.r. spectroscopy and gravimetry over the p[H] range 4.5–10.0. The use of n.m.r. spectroscopy allowed the direct observation of polytungstate anions in aqueous solution and high concentration (0.25 mol l–1). Sodium metatungstate, with the progressive addition of base, was found to decompose to paratungstate A, [W7O24]6–. Paratungstate A then slowly converted to paratungstate B, [H2W12O42]10–. The kinetics of equilibrium was found to be slow, requiring up to 8 months to stabilize. With the addition of further base paratungstate B decomposed to orthotungstate, WO42–. Logarithmic constants (logK) for these transformations were determined as 195, 20 and 118, respectively. The solubility product for sodium paratungstate B was determined to be 6.89 ( 0.80) 10–6.

Abstract A method has been developed for detecting residues of carbaryl (1-naphthyl methylcarbamate) as well as its hydrolysis product, 1-naphthol, in dead bees. The method is based on extraction of the bees with benzene, followed by a cleanup involving liquid partitioning and chromatography on Florisil. The quantitative determination involves hydrolysis of carbaryl to 1-naphthol and coupling of the latter with p-nitrobenzenediazonium fluoborate in acetic acid to form a yellow substance. For separate analysis, free 1-naphthol is separated from methylene chloride into a basic aqueous solution. The sensitivity of the method is about 0.1 ppm; recoveries averaged 85.6 ± 6.6% for 1- naphthol and 83.8 ± 2.7% for carbaryl.

This investigation has resulted in an analytical method for the quantitative determination of total lanthanide concentration in aqueous solution by absorbance at 240 nm in the ultraviolet followed by quantitative determination of individual lanthanide ion concentrations by the use of concentration-responsive absorption peaks in the 190–235 nm region. The 240-nm peak is present and is proportional to concentration regardless of the ligand employed to complex the lanthanides (including H2O). The individual lanthanide/ligand peaks in the 190–235 nm region were selected on the basis of their separation from one another, their linearity of absorbance vs. concentration, and their statistical reliability based on replicate sample analyses. Lanthanides involved in this investigation were La+3, Nd+3, Eu+3, Ho+3, and Yb+3. Ligands ultimately selected for complexation were citrate for La+3, Nd+3, and Ho+3, and DTPA for Eu+3, Ho+3, and Yb+3. When large amounts of heavy metal ions were present, a modified method was developed with citrate as the only complexing ligand for all five lanthanides. The method here developed permits the analyses of lanthanide ions in aqueous solution without prior separation and involves the use of comparatively inexpensive instrumentation (UV absorption spectrophotometer).
