AbstractPVC matrix and liquid membrane electrodes have been developed for direct potentiometric determination of gold(III). The membranes incorporate nitron tetrachloroaurate(III) as electroactive material. Fast response for gold(III) over the concentration range 10−5–0.1M, with response slopes of 52.8–55.2 mV/decade is obtained. The electrodes show good selectivity for gold(III) at pH 2–5 in the presence of many anions and cations. The PVC membrane electrode offers the advantages of greater selectivity (except for Cr3+, Mn2+ and ClO−4) and higher thermal stability. The liquid membrane electrode gives a higher response slope and faster time of response than the PVC membrane electrode. Determination of AuCl−4 over the range 2 μg/ml–2 mg/ml shows an average recovery of 98.5% and a mean standard deviation of 1.0%. Determination of gold in some gold alloys (58.3–99.9% Au) and pharmaceutical preparations gave an average recovery of 99.4% and a mean standard deviation of 0.7%, which are comparable with the performance obtained with the spectrophotometric Malachite Green and gravimetric U.S. Pharmacopeia methods.
