General description

Bathophenanthroline (BPhen) is a chelating agent and is specific for ferrous ions.

Application

Bathophenanthroline was used in an ultra-sensitive and selective nonextractive quenchofluorimetric method, in order to determine palladium (II) at μg/l Levels. It may also be used as the buffer layer to improve the performance of organic photovoltaic cells.

Other Notes

For the determination of iron in serum, in urine; for the determination of iron(II) in presence of iron(III); for the determination of total iron.

Traces of iron(II) (1-30 ppM) in the presence of iron(III) were determined (error <10%) by the bathophenanthroline method. Interference of iron(III) was eliminated by masking with sodium pyrophosphate (2.5-60 mg). The iron(II) complex was extracted with n-butanol, at pH 4.2-4.7.
