A novel chromogenic reaction involving copper(II) and bromosulphonazo III (Br-SAZIII) in hexamethylenetetramine-hydrochloric buffer solution was investigated. The results showed that a blue complex of copper(II) and bromosulphonazo III was formed with a molar ratio of 1:1. The apparent molar absorptivity was 3.3 x 105 L mol(-1) cm(-1) and the maximum absorption peak was at 616.8 nm. The proposed procedure was used for quantitative estimation of Cu(II) in the concentration range of 0-1.024 mu g/mL with the detection limit (3 sigma) of 7.03 x 10(-4) mu g/mL (n = 20). The relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 0.56-4.68%. Under the optimized conditions, total copper in the vegetables and tea was successfully determined. (c) 2007 Li Yuan.
