We report on the acid dissociation constants (Ka) of diglycolamic acid-type ligands together with comprehensive data on the extraction performance of N,N-dioctyldiglycolamic acid (DODGAA) for 54 metal ions. The pKa of the diglycolamic acid framework was determined to be 3.54 ± 0.03 in water (0.1 M LiCl, 25°C) by potentiometric titration, indicating that DODGAA is strongly acidic compared with a...

Two new macrocyclic hydrazone Schiff bases were synthesized by reaction of succindihydrazide and adipdihydrazide with acetylacetone. Hydrazones have been characterized by elemental analyses and IR, mass, (1)H NMR, and (13)C NMR spectral data. Hydrazones have been studied by liquid-liquid extraction towards the s-metal ions (Li(+), Na(+), and K(+)) and d-metal ions (Cu(2+) and Cr(3+)) from aqueo...

The objective of this work is to track the amount of metal complexes distributed in the extraction cell, collection vial, and tubing used in supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) systems after progressive removal of metal ions in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2). Sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (NaDDC) and dibutylammonium dibutyldithiocarbamate (DBDC) ligands were used to form complexes with ...

Chemical extractants used to measure labile soil metal must ideally select for and solubilise the labile fraction, with minimal solubilisation of non-labile metal. We assessed four extractants (0.43 M HNO3, 0.43 M CH3COOH, 0.05 M Na2H2EDTA and 1 M CaCl2) against these requirements. For soils contaminated by contrasting sources, we compared isotopically exchangeable Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb (EValue...

Leaching using EDTA applied to a Pb, Zn and Cd polluted soil significantly reduced soil metal concentrations and the pool of metals in labile soil fractions. Metal mobility (Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure), phytoavailability (diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid extraction) and human oral-bioavailability (Physiologically Based Extraction Test) were reduced by 85-92%, 68-91% and 88-95%...

the application of sulfur nanoparticles as an efficient adsorbent for the solid-phase extraction and determination of the trace amounts of pb and pd ions was investigated in environmental samples using flame atomic absorption spectrometry. effects of various parameters such as ph, flow rate of sample and eluent, type and concentration of eluent, sample volume, amount of adsorbent and interferin...

A review. In this paper, separation of metals with solvent extraction, ionic liquid extraction phase and chelate extraction of metal ion were reviewed.

two n4-type schiff base ligands named n,n'-bis(2-pyridylmethylidene)-1,2-diiminoethane (l1) and n,n'-bis(2-pyridylmethylidene)-1,3-diiminopropane (l2) have been synthesized by the reaction of pyridine-2-carbaldehyde with ethylenediamine and propylenediamine, respectively. the binding abilities of l1 and l2 in dichloromethane towards cu2+, cd2+, co2+, ni2+, zn2+ and pb2+ ions were evaluated by p...
