1 Introduction
Naphthol green B is used in histology to stain collagen Thedye is a lake in which the mordant metal is ferric ironHowever the iron appears to play no part in its staining ability[1] Naphthol green B is very soluble in water and has anabsorptionmaximumof 714 nmAs an anion it acts as an aciddye [2] Kinetic spectrophotometric method for the determi-nation of cerium (IV) with naphthol green B has been studied[3] The reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically bymeasuring the decrease in absorbance of naphthol green B at710 nm It was found that the reaction rate is very slow whenthe temperature is below 60∘C but the rate of the catalyzedreaction increases rapidly when the reaction temperatures areabove 70∘C
Peroxydisulphate ion is one of the powerful oxidizingagents known [4 5] A large number of investigations havebeen carried out in the oxidation of metal ions [6 7] metalcomplex [8 9] and various organic compounds [10] byS2O8
2minus Most electron transfer reactions of S2O8
2minus occur bythe outer-spheremechanism [11ndash13] However reactions withsome positively charged metal complexes such as Fe(bpy)

2+Fe(Phen)

2+ and Os(bpy)3
2+ occur by both the outer-sphereand the inner-sphere mechanisms [5 9] Except when thereducing agent can be protonated the redox reaction of
S2O8
2minus was found to be independent of hydrogen ion concen-tration [14] Despite its reactions with other compounds theredox reaction of this oxidant with naphthol green B is scanty
It is our hope that this investigation will help to gainmore insight into the redox reaction of naphthol green B withperoxydisulphate ion
2 Materials and Methods
The chemicals used were of analytical grade and were usedwithout further purification Standard solution of NGB3minus wasprepared by dissolving 0088 g in 100 cm3 volumetric flaskusing distilled water Sodium peroxydisulphate solution wasprepared by dissolving knownquantities in distilledwater Allother reagents used were of analytical grade
The stoichiometry of the reaction was determined spec-trophotometrically using the mole ratio method by keepingthe concentration of the dye constant at 40 times 10minus5mol dmminus3[H+] = 10 times 10minus4mol dmminus3 119868 = 050 120582max = 700 nm119879 = 23 plusmn 1

The stoichiometry was evaluated from the plot of absorbanceversus [reductant][oxidant] after the reaction had reachedcompletion by the observation of a steady zero absorbancevalue over a period of two days
