title: Synchronous-derivative phosphorimetric determination of 1- and 2-naphthol in irrigation water by employing beta-cyclodextrin.
abstract: A room-temperature phosphorimetric (RTP) study of the inclusion process between 1- and 2-naphthol, beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) and 3-bromo-1-propanol as heavy atom pertuber has been performed. Experimental conditions were optimized for the formation of trimolecular complexes with lifetimes of 10.82 and 9.41 ms for 1- and 2-naphthol, respectively. A synchronous-derivative room-temperature phosphorimetric method has been proposed to the analysis of both naphthols in synthetic mixtures and irrigation water in the ratio 1:10 to 10:1; the limit of detection is 0.02 mug ml(-1) and the relative standard deviation (RSD) is about 6%.
