Diphenylcarbazon is a chemical compound from the group of carbazones (nitrogen compounds with the basic structure HN = N-CO-NH-NH 2 ).
properties
Diphenylcarbazone is an orange solid that dissolves well in ethanol , not water. It forms a purple complex compound with Hg (II) ions . Likewise, other metal ions, such as. B. Cr (III) ions, colored complexes. Diphenylcarbazone can be produced from diphenylcarbazide via oxidation . Certain commercial products of diphenylcarbazone are a mixture with diphenylcarbazide, which also forms colored complex compounds with certain metal ions.
use
Diphenylcarbazone is used as an indicator to determine the end point in mercurimetry:
If a sodium chloride solution is titrated with mercury (II) nitrate solution , undissociated mercury (II) chloride is formed . When the end point is exceeded, the color complex is then formed with diphenylcarbazone. This method is used in water analysis for the determination of chloride.
If a certain amount of mercury (II) nitrate solution is added in excess to a chloride solution, the color intensity of the complex can be determined photometrically and thus the chloride content can be concluded.
