“…During the spectrophotometric determination of Ti (IV), a number of organic chromogenic reagents, such as o-carboxyphenylfluorone [19], ponceau S [18], diantipyrylmethane [20], resacetophenone p-hydroxybenzoylhydrazone [24], thiocyanate [25], 2,3-dihydroxynaphthalene [26], 3,5,7,2',4'-penta hydroxy flavone [27], 5-(2', 4'-dimethylphenylazo)-6-hydroxypyrimidine-2,4-dione [28], bromopyrogallol red [29] and o-chlorophenylfluorone [30], have been used to produce an intense color for absorbance measurement. Most of these reagents are expensive, harder-to-obtain and environmental-unfriendly.…”
