Composition

[edit]

Dragendroff's reagent is a solution of potassium bismuth iodide prepared from basic bismuth nitrate (Bi(NO3)3), tartaric acid, and potassium iodide (KI).

Preparation

[edit]

Dragendorff's reagent is prepared by mixing a concentrated solution of potassium iodide with a solution of bismuth subnitrate in a diluted acid (acetic acid or tartaric acid, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid also rarely being used) as a low pH is mandatory for this reagent.

The formation is as follows: The black precipitate of bismuth iodide is formed from the reaction of bismuth ion and potassium iodide.

Bi3+
+ 3 KIBiI
3
+ 3 K+

Then, the reaction between bismuth ion and excess potassium iodide will produce a soluble complex of potassium tetraiodobismuthate which has an orange color.

Bi3+
+ KIK(BiI4)

Reaction

[edit]

Most of the alkaloids have a tertiary amine group, so the explanation for color reaction could be the following:

R3N + HX[R3NH]+ + X
(X = anions of acid)

Then the insoluble complex salt is formed from the reaction between ammonium salt and potassium tetraiodobismuthate.

[R3NH]+X + K[BiI4][R3NH]+[BiI4] + KX

This ion pair has different colors: yellow, orange, red, and brown, which depend on the nature of alkaloids.
