Rapid determination of molybdenum in ferromolybdenum and molybdenum additives, with oxine
A rapid method is presented for the gravimetric determination of molybdenum (as the oxinate) in ferromolybdenum and molybdenum additives. The sample is fused with a mixed flux of sodium peroxide and sodium carbonate in a zirconium crucible for complete decomposition. Leaching the cooled fusion cake with water provides instantaneous separation of molybdenum as sodium molybdate from iron(III) and other hydrous oxides. After filtration, the molybdenum is precipitated with oxine after addition of EDTA and oxalate to obviate interference from other metal oxinates, and determined gravimetrically. The precision and accuracy are comparable to those of referee methods.
8-Hydroxyquinoline（oxine） is an organic compound with the formula C9H7NO. It is a derivative of the heterocycle quinoline by placement of an OH group on carbon number 8. This light yellow compound is widely used commercially, although under a variety of names.
The complexes as well as the heterocycle itself exhibit antiseptic, disinfectant, and pesticide properties, functioning as a transcription inhibitor. Its solution in alcohol is used in liquid bandages. It once was of interest as an anti-cancer drug.
The reaction of 8-hydroxyquinoline with aluminium(III) results in Alq3, a common component of organic light-emitting diodes (OLED's). Variations in the substituents on the quinoline rings affect its luminescence properties.
The roots of the invasive plant Centaurea diffusa release 8-hydroxyquinoline, which has a negative effect on plants that have not co-evolved with it.
Hydroxyquinoline was used as a stabilizer of hydrogen peroxide in a rocket fuel oxidizer (T-Stoff) for the German Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet in World War 2.[citation needed]
8-Hydroxyquinoline-functionalized hydrogels devices can be utilized to build photonic nanosensors to quantify the concentrations of lead and copper. The principle of operation of these sensors is based on the chemical modulation of a hydrogel film volume that incorporates a Bragg grating. As the hydrogel swells or shrinks upon chemical stimulation, the Bragg grating changes color and diffracts light at different wavelengths. The diffracted light can be correlated with the concentration of a target analyte.
