Determination of molybdenum(VI) by differential pulse polarographic technique using 4-(2-hydroxy phenyl ethaminodiol), benzene-1,3-diol(4-2-HPEDB-1,3,D)

A novel analytical reagent 4-(2-hydroxy phenyl ethaminodiol), benzene-1,3-diol(4-2- HPEDB-1,3,D) was synthesized for the determination of molybdenum(VI). The present paper reveals the detailed study of electroanalytical behaviour for [Mo-(4-2-HPEDB-1,3,D)] complex under optimized conditions. The peak obtained for [Mo-(4-2-HPEDB-1,3,D)] prevent the interference of foreign ions which shows the sensitivity of the proposed method. The linearity was maintained at the concentration range of 0.5–200 lg/mL at pH 4.5 with correlation factor 0.9997. The present method was successfully applied for the analysis of molybdenum(VI) in biological fluids and plant material. The results obtained from the proposed method show good agreement with reference method.
