“…Among different anion carriers used for this purpose, 4 the use of metalloporphyrins, [5][6][7][8][9][10] metal complexes, 11,12 and organometalic compounds 13,14 as ionophores in solvent polymeric membrane electrodes are well known to induce potentiometric anion selectivity sequences that differ significantly from the classical Hofmeister pattern. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Despite the need for a triiodide ion-selective electrode for the determination of iodide and triiodide ion in many medical, 17,18 juice (as ascorbic acid in orange juice) 20 and environmental samples (such as dissolved O2 in water), [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] to date there have been limited reports on an I3 -ion-selective electrode in the literature. [17][18][19]22,23 Furthermore, it is interesting to note that, to the best of our knowledge, there is one literature report concerning the use of charge-transfer complexes of crown ethers for preparing an ion-selective electrode.…”
