Abstract:
A vortex‐assisted liquid–liquid microextraction method was developed for the chromatographic determination of strontium in aqueous samples. In the method, strontium was complexed with 4′,4″(5″)‐di‐( tert ‐butylcyclohexano)‐18‐crown‐6 in the presence of tetraphenylborate as the counter anion, which increased the hydrophobicity of the ion‐association complex, resulting in its improved extraction into 1‐octanol. Strontium from the organic phase was stripped with nitric acid back to aqueous solution and determined by ion chromatography. The optimum microextraction conditions were as follows: 2.0 mL aqueous samples with 3 mM tetraphenylborate; 150 μL of 1‐octanol as the extractant phase with 10 mM DtBuCH18C6; vortex extraction time for 10 s; centrifugation at 6000 rpm for 4 min; stripping by 0.1 M nitric acid. Under the optimum conditions, the detection limit for strontium was 0.005 mg/L. The calibration curves showed good linearity over the range between 0.01 and 2.5 mg/L. Intra‐ and interday precisions of the present method were satisfactory with relative standard deviations of 1.7 and 2.1%, respectively.
