Abstract
Etilefrine hydrochloride (EfCl) selective PVC membrane electrodes based on Etilefrinium phosphotungstate (I), Etilefrinium tetraphenylborate (II) and a mixture of both (III) were prepared, The electrodes exhibited near Nernstian response over the concentration ranges 5.0 × 10−6 - 1.0 × 10−1, 6.3 × 10−6 - 1.0 × 10−1 and 6.3 × 10−5 - 1.0 × 10−1 M EfCl for electrodes I, II and III, respectively. The working pH ranges of electrodes I, II and III were 10 - 8.0, 10 - 7.5 and 10 - 7.5 and their isothermal coefficients were 0.00150, 0.00088 and 0.00072 V/°C, respectively. The electrodes showed good selectivity to EfCl with respect to many inorganic cations, sugars and amino acids. The standard additions method was used to determine EfCl in pure solutions and in pharmaceutical preparations.
