Iodimetric determination of organolead compounds.
A sensitive, rapid and accurate titrimetric method has been developed for the determination of 50-5000 mug of ethyl-lead or phenyl-lead compounds, based on their oxidation with a chloroform solution of iodine, removal of the excess of iodine, oxidation of the resulting iodide with bromine, and iodometric titration of the iodate formed. The coefficient of variation does not exceed 1.2% for amounts > 1000 mug of the organolead compound, but increases to 2.8% for the 50-mug level. The ethyl- and phenyl-lead compounds can be determined independently in mixtures.
