Binding of Transition Metal Ions by the Calcium Indicator Hydroxy Naphthol Blue. It has been found that the calcium indicating azo-dye, hydroxy naphthol blue (HNB), binds more strongly to transition metal ions than to the alkaline earth ions it is currently used for.
Dosage
At pH 10, Ca2+(aq) ion first complexes with the indicator as CaIn+(aq) which is wine red. As the stronger ligand EDTA is added, the CaIn+(aq) complex is replaced by the CaY2-(aq) complex which is blue. The end point of titration is indicated by a sharp colour change from wine red to blue.
