title: Bis (trans-cinnamaldehyde) ethylene diimine dibromonickel (II) complex as a neutral carrier for salicylate-selective liquid membrane and coated graphite sensors.
abstract: A salicylate PVC-based membrane (SPME) and a coated graphite membrane (SCGE) electrodes by using a new tetracoordinate organonickel complex as ion carrier were prepared. Both sensors show a Nernstian response to salicylate ions over a very wide concentration ranges (1.0x10(-5)-1.0x10(-1) M for SPME and 1.0x10(-6)-1.0x10(-2) M for SCGE) in the pH of 7.0. The best selectivities were obtained for the membrane incorporating 30% PVC, 63% plasticizer, 2% cationic additive and 5% ionophore. The electrodes possess satisfactory reproducibility, very short response time ( approximately 10 s) in the whole concentration ranges, and excellent discriminating ability for salicylate ions with respect to the most common organic and inorganic anions. The detection limits of proposed sensors are 5.0x10(-6) and 7.0x10(-7) M for SPME and SCGE, respectively. The electrodes were successfully used for determination of salicylate in biological samples.
