Summary
Four 15-membered ring cyclic compounds with two oxygen and two nitrogen atoms incorporated in the ring were prepared and evaluated as neutral carriers in lithium ion-selective electrodes. These ionophores, along with potassium tetrakis (p-chlorophenyl)borate and o-nitrophenyloctyl ether (NPOE), were included in the PVC matrix that coated the tip of a silver-wire electrode. The potentiometric selectivities of the electrodes towards lithium over sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium were determined. Selectivity coefficients, K potLi, Na ., as low as 9.5×10−3 were obtained and smaller coefficients for other metals, K potLi, M ., were found. A calibration curve for lithium in the presence of 140 mmol/l sodium, with a linear portion having a slope of 51 mV/decade, was obtained. The effect of incorporating 1% trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) in the electrodes was studied. Comparison with the results obtained with 15-crown-4-ethers is made.
