Description

The present invention relates to an anion-selective membrane, in particular a membrane that is selective for the phosphate ion, particularly dihydrogen phosphate. The present invention further relates to a sensor in which such an anion-selective membrane is included. Such sensors are used for measuring the concentration of the anion in an electrolyte solution such as fertilizer dosages in the market gardening sector. Examples of suitable sensors are the ISFET, ion-selective electrode, optrode, coated-wire electrode and sensors on the basis of planar silicon technology.
The membrane is anion-selective due to a specific ionophore for the anion present therein. The ionophore can be physically and/or chemically (covalently) bonded to the membrane matrix. Examples of such physical and chemical methods of bonding are described in NL-A-8400916 NL-A-8602242, NL-A-9100184 and NL-A-9100872.
The present invention is based on the discovery that specific ionophores based on a uranyl complex exhibit a very high thermodynamic stability in combination with a high selectivity for anions, particularly for dihydrogen phosphate. The ionophore is moreover neutral, which is favourable for applications in electrolyte solutions.
In its widest aspect the present invention relates to a membrane that is selective for anions, particularly phosphate, comprising an ionophore based on a uranyl complex with the general formula ##STR2## wherein A, B, C, D=R

wherein alkyl is a straight or branched chain optionally substituted with
(C.sub.1 -C.sub.30) alkyl halogen nitro cyano hydroxy;
wherein aryl is optionally substituted with (C.sub.1 -C.sub.30) alkyl halogen nitro cyano hydroxy.
In preference the ionophore contains a --CONH group whereby the stability and usually the selectivity for dihydrogen phosphate further increases. For this purpose it is recommended that the substituent E+E' and/or the substituent G+G' is aryl substituted with the group K--CONH--L. The synthesis of such ionophores is furthered when more preferably the group K--CONH--L is the group X--(CH.sub.2).sub.m --CONH--L.
If in this case the substituent L is further an alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, alkylaryl or alkylcycloalkyl group, the stability and selectivity for dihydrogen phosphate is then increased further. Moreover achieved herein is that leaching of ionophore physically bonded in the membrane is further suppressed, particularly in the case of alkyl groups in which the number of carbon atoms amounts to 6 or more, such as C.sub.16 -C.sub.30, particularly C.sub.16 and C.sub.18. Optimal stability and selectivity are obtained when the substituent L is an aryl group which can optionally be substituted.
Very favourable ionophores for use in the present invention are those in which the substituent is a joint substituent K--COHN--L--NHCO--K formed by ring closure. From the point of view of synthesis it is further recommended that the group L is (CH.sub.2).sub.m --X--(CH.sub.2).sub.m --X--(CH.sub.2).sub.m, wherein preferably m=2 and X=O. Thus created is an ionophore with a very high stability and selectivity for dihydrogen phosphate.
In another group of ionophores for use in a membrane according to the invention it is recommended that the substituent E+E' and/or the substituent G+G' is aryl substituted with --X--(CH.sub.2).sub.m H. Such ionophores have the highest selectivity for dihydrogen phosphate. In preference X=O.
The ionophore can be further provided with a large diversity of reactive groups for chemical covalent bonding of the ionophore to the membrane matrix. This linking group can be included in all substituents A, B, C, D, E, E', G and G'. In preference the linking group is included in an aryl group.
Suitable linking groups are ##STR3##
This chemical linking can take place through the reaction of the linking group with a functional group in the matrix, or by polymerization during the forming of the matrix.
For exclusive or supplementary physical linking of the ionophore in the membrane matrix it is further recommended that the ionophore be provided with a linking group with a high lipophilicity such as for instance alkyl, alkylaryl, alkylcycloalkyl groups with 5 and more carbon atoms, in general 5 to 30 carbon atoms, such as C.sub.12 -C.sub.24, particularly C.sub.16 and C.sub.18.
Preferred ionophores at this time are the ionophores with the following structure formulae: ##STR4##
Of a number of ionophores according to the invention for selective measurement of anions, particularly dihydrogen phosphate, the association constants for a number of anions were measured such as chloride, dihydrogen phosphate, hydrogen sulphate, nitrite and thiocyanate. Use is made herein of a solution of 1% dimethylsulphoxide in acetonitrile. The measurements were performed by diluting a sample solution with a stock solution of the free salt. The sample solution was prepared by adding small quantities of free ligand to 10 ml stock solution. The starting concentrations were 1-2 mM for the ligand and 0.3-0.7 mM for the salt. The K.sub.ass values were determined conductometrically using curve-fitting methods. The results are shown in the following table.
