Abstract


A highly selective and sensitive spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of iodide based on its catalytic effect on the oxidation of promethazine hydrochloride (FM) with H2O2. The red oxidation product of PM is monitored at 516 nm for 40 s. Using the recommended procedure, iodide can be determined with a linear calibration graph up to 12 ng ml-1 at 25 °C. The limit of detection is about 0.1 ng ml-1. The mechanism of the reaction is inferred. The method was successfully applied to the determination of iodide in river waters.
