Abstract:
Cyanide ions react in aqueous medium with [Fe(bathophenanthroline)(3)](2+) to form the mixed-ligand complex [Fe(bathophenanthroline)(2)(CN)(2)], which is strongly coloured and extractable into chloroform. This reaction can be used for determination of cyanide with good sensitivity and precision. Potential interferences have been studied.
