A New Optical Sensor for Selective Monitoring of Nickel Ion Based on A Hydrazone Derivative Immobilized on the Triacetyl Cellulose Membrane

Kamal Alizadeh and Nasim Abbasi Rad

A new highly selective optical sensor was prepared by de-esterification of triacetyl cellulose transparent film and chemical immobilization of 1-acenaphthoquinone 1-thiosemicarbazone (L) on it. The absorbance variation of immobilized 1-acenaphthoquinone 1-thiosemicarbazone on hydrolyzed cellulose acetate film of upon addition of 1.5 × 10-5 mol L-1 aqueous solutions of Zn2+, Pb2+, K+, Cu2+, Ag+, Ni2 , Cd2+, Ca2+, CrO4 2-, Hg2+, Co2+, Mn2+, Cr3+, S2 O3 2-, Mg2+, Na+, Al3+, Tl+ and Fe3+ indicated a substantiality much larger variation for the Nickel ion in compare to other studied ions. Consequently, the new hydrazone derivative L possesses a high selectivity towards this metal ion. Influences of various experimental parameters on Ni2+ sensing, including the reaction time, the solution pH and the concentration of reagents were studied. A linear relationship was observed between the variance in membrane absorbance(â�?�?A) at 337 nm and Ni2+ concentrations in a range from 5.01 × 10-10 to 2.04 × 10-5 mol L-1 with a detection limit (3σ) of 1.00 × 10-10 mol L-1. No significant interference from 100 times concentrations of a number of potentially interfering ions was detected for the nickel ion determination. The sensor showed a good durability and short response time with no evidence of reagent leaching. The optical sensor was successfully applied to the determination of nickel in real water samples.
