Abstract
The polarographic and voltammetric behaviour of the title compound, which is the basic component in many commercial optical whitening agents, was investigated. The optimum conditions were found for the determination of the substance in dimethylformamide solutions containing 5% (v/v) water by tast polarography, differential pulse polarography, linear sweep voltammetry using a hanging mercury drop electrode, and differential pulse polarography using a hanging mercury drop electrode over the concentration regions of 100-500, 10-500, 10-500, and 1-100 mmol l-1, respectively. Practical applicability of the newly developed methods to the determination of the analyte in technical products, either direct or following separation by thin layer chromatography, was verified.
