Abstract
A method has been developed, based on the periodate oxidation of the manganese in the coordination product of zinc ion and manganese ethylene bisdithiocarbamate to permanganic acid, to determine DithaneM-45. The relationship between the intensity of color and the concentration of manganese obeys Beer’s law up to 100 μg at 540 nm. The method can be easily applied to the determination of the active ingredient in formulations and also for residue analysis. The method is sensitive to 0.6 μg and can be used to determine 6 /xg fungicide at the 20 g sample level.Keywords
