The potentiometric responses for various anions are investigated with membrane electrode (membrane 1) based on 1,3-diethyl-1,3-dihydroxy-1,3-bis(2-dimethylaminomethyl ferrocenyl) disiloxane. The nitrate ion-selective electrode based on compound 1 gave a good Nernstian response of 58.18 mV per decade for nitrate with the detection limit of −e5.66 of log [NO3−e]. Compound 1 has all those functional groups and the other two compounds have less functional group of ferrocenyl or ferrocenyl and hydroxide, respectively. Even though, potentiometric response to anions was excellent at pH 5, the selectivity pattern for all three membrane electrode based on series of disiloxane is almost like Hofmeister sequence at pH 5. However, the membrane electrode 1-3 exhibited very different response to anions at pH 7. In this pH, NH2 is not protonated and ionophore may act as neutral carrier. Hydrogen bond may enhance the responsibility to hydrogen acceptors and intramolecular electro-active site may increase the permeability of analyte to ionophore in membrane.

New PVC based polymeric membrane electrodes (PME) and coated glassy carbon electrodes (CGCE) based on synthesized Schiff base complexes of Co(III); [Co(Salen)$(PBu_3)_2$]$ClO_4$, [Co($Me_2$Salen)$(PBu_3)_2$]$ClO_4$, [Co(Salen)$(PBu_3)H_2O$]$ClO_4$; as anion carriers for potentiometric determination of $ClO_4\;^-$were studied. The PME and also CGCE electrodes prepared with [Co(Me2Salen)$(PBu_3)_2$]$ClO_4$ showed excellent response characteristics to perchlorate ions. The electrodes exhibited Nernstian responses to $ClO_4\;^-$ ions over a wide concentration range with low detection limits ($1.0 {\times} 10^{-6}\;mol\;L^{-1}$ for PME and $9.0 {\times} 10^{-7}\;mol\;L^{-1}$ for CGCE). The electrodes possess fast response time, satisfactory reproducibility, appropriate lifetime and, most importantly, good selectivity toward $ClO_4\;^-$ relative to a variety of other common inorganic anions. The potentiometric response of the electrodes is independent of the pH in the pH range 2.5-8.5. The proposed sensors were used in potentiometric determination of perchlorate ions in mineral water and urine samples. The interaction of the ionophore with perchlorate ions was shown by UV/Vis spectroscopy.

A series of polyethers containing the thiazole or oxazole subcyclic moiety have been synthesized. Reaction of 2-aryl-4-hydroxymethylthiazole with tetra- and pentaethylene glycol di-p-tosylate in THF provided corresponding α,ω-bis[2'-aryl-4'-methylthiazole]polyethylene glycol in good yields. Similar treatment of 2-phenyl-4-hydroxymethyloxazole 7 and 2-phenyl-5-hydroxymethyloxazole 8 with tetraethylene glycol di-p-tosylate yielded the corresponding 1,13-bis [2'-phenyl-4'-methyloxazole]tetraethylene glycol 16 and 1,13-bis[2'-phenyl-5'-methyloxazole]tetraethylene glycol 17 in 69 and 43% yields in respectively. The potentiometric properties of PVC-based ion selective membranes containing 66 wt% o-nitrophenyloctyl ether (NPOE) and 4 wt% polyethers 9-17 have been examined. The membranes containing thiazole and oxazole polyether derivatives exhibited high selectivity toward silver (I) ion. It was observed that the response slopes of the electrodes to silver ion vary with the length of polyether chain linking two thiazole subcyclic moiety. Potentiometric data suggest that the number of ether units, CH2OCH2, for phenylthiazole derivatives be greater than 5 to result in near-Nernstian response. However, the response behaviors of the membrane electrodes based on phenyloxazole podands 16 and 17, which have different orientation, were correspondingly similar to those of the electrodes based on phenylthiazole podands 9 and 10. On the other hand, the ISEs based on thiazole polyether derivatives with different terminal substituents, e.g., phenyl 10, naphtyl 14, and thienyl 15, except that with pyridyl 12, exhibited little difference in their potentiometric properties.

In this paper, a potentiometric sensor based on polyaniline conducting polymer for potentiometric determination of Cr (VI) ions is reported. Polyaniline was synthesized electrochemically (cyclic voltammetry method) onto a micro pencil graphite electrode (0.7 mm diameter) in the presence of HCl and diphenylcarbazide (termed as (PGE/PAni/DPC). Some initial experiments were performed in order to find out the optimized conditions for preparation of the introduced Cr (VI) sensor electrode. The plot of E vs. log [Cr (VI)], showed a linear response in the range from $1.0{\times}10^{-6}$ to $1.0{\times}10^{-1}$ M. High repeatability with the detection limit of $8.0{\times}10^{-7}$ M was obtained.

The thiocyanate-selective PVC membrane electrodes based on 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-porphyrinatomanganese(III) chloride [Mn(TMP)Cl] and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,6-dichlorophenyl)porphyrinatomanganese(III) chloride $[Mn(Cl_8TPP)Cl]$ as ion carriers were investigated. The effect of ionophores, membrane compositions, plasticizers, and solution pHs on the response characteristics were studied. The Mn(TMP)Cl as an ionophore shows the best potentiometric sensitivity with a slope of -58.7 mV/decade and a detection limit of $log[SCN^-]$ = -6.90, and selectivity for thiocyanate over strong hydrophobic interfering anions such as ${ClO_4}^-$ and salicylate. The potentiometric response is affected by the electronic effect of the substituents and solution pHs. The presence of substituents with electron donating and more liphophilic characters around the ligated metal center produces an improved response toward $SCN^-$.

In this study, a new potentiometric sensor selective to copper(II) ions was developed and characterized. The developed sensor has a polymeric membrane and contains 4.0% electroactive material (ionophore), 33.0% poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), 63.0% bis(2-ethylhexyl)sebacate (BEHS) and 1.0% potassium tetrakis(p-chlorophenyl)borate (KTpClPB). This novel copper(II)-selective sensor exhibits a Nernstian response over a wide concentration range from 1.0×10^-6 to 1.0×10^-1 mol L^-1 with a slope of 29.6 (±1.2) mV decade^-1, and a lower detection limit of 8.75×10-7 mol L^-1. The sensor, which was produced economically by synthesizing the ionophore in the laboratory, has a good selectivity and repeatability, fast response time and stable potentiometric behaviour. The potential response of the sensor remains unaffected of pH in the range of 5.0-10.0. Based on the analytical applications of the sensor, we showed that it can be used as an indicator electrode in the quantification of Cu²⁺ ions by potentiometric titration against EDTA, and can also be successfully utilized for the determination of copper(II) ions in different real samples.

A method for the determination of anionic drug, mefenamate with ion-selective electrode using Fe(II)-1,10-phenanthroline chelate as a counter ion was developed. Benzyl nitrophenyl ether (BNPE) plasticized membrane was more selective and sensitive than the other tested membranes. This membrane electrode exhibits a linear response for 10$^{-2}$ M~5 $\times$ 10$^{-5}$ M of mefenamic acid with a slope of -61.4 mV/dec. in borate buffer solutions (pH 9.0). Potentiometric selectivity measurements revealed negligible interferences from various organic and ionorganic anions. Direct potentiometry and potentiometric titration method of mefenamic acid in capsule preparations are presented and compared.

Polymeric membrane electrodes for acetate anion based on meso-(${\alpha}$,${\alpha}$,${\alpha}$,${\alpha}$)-5,10,15,20-tetrakis[2-(penta-fluorophenylurea) phenyl]porphyrin I and similar urea-functionalized porphyrins Ⅱ-Ⅳ as neutral ionophores were prepared. The membrane based on porphyrin I exhibits the best potentiometric properties in pH 6.0 rather than pH 7.0: linear stable response over a wide concentration range (6.0 ${\times}$$10^{-5}$-1.0 ${\times}$$10^{-2}$) with a slope of -59.6 mV/decade and a detection limit of log[CH3CO$O^-$] = -5.32. Selectivity coefficients obtained from the matched potential method (MPM) in pH 6.0 indicate that interferences of hydrophobic anions are very small for the membranes of porphyrins I and II having the strong withdrawing group. The electronic effect of urea-functionalized porphyrins and pH effect of buffer solutions are discussed on the potentiometric response.
