The calibration graph was linear up to 1×10-5 mol dm-3. In a flow injection system, a detection limit (signal-to-noise ratio=3) of 2.5×10-7 mol dm-3 was obtained with a sample throughput of 60 h-1. Potentiometric studies of this reaction system with a fluoride ion-selective electrode demonstrated that an increase in absorbance can be ascribed to the coordination of the phenolic oxygen of SXO on the reaction of a partly hydrolysed Zr-SXO complex with fluoride ion to give the mixed ligand complex., application/pdf}, pages = {219--222}, title = {Semi-xylenol orange complex of zirconium(IV) as a photometric reagent system for fluoride based on mixed ligand complex formation}, volume = {118}, year = {1993} }
