In this paper, 4-hydroxy-1-naphthalthiorhodanine (HNTR) was synthesized, and a new method for the simultaneous determination of palladium, platinum and rhodium ions as metal-HNTR chelates was developed using rapid column high-performance liquid chromatography combined with on-line enrichment. The palladium, platinum and rhodium ions were pre-column derivatized with HNTR to form colored chelates. The Pb-HNTR, Pt-HNTR and Rh-HNTR chelates could be absorbed onto the front of the enrichment column when they were injected into the injector and sent to the enrichment column [ZORBAX Stable Bound, 4.6 × 10 mm, 1.8 μm] with a buffer solution of 0.05 mol L⁻¹ sodium acetate-acetic acid (pH 4.0) as mobile phase. After enrichment, and by switching the six-ports switching valve, the retained chelates were back-flushed by mobile phase and traveling towards the analytical column. Separation of these chelates on the analytical column [ZORBAX Stable Bound, 4.6 × 50 mm, 1.8 μm] was satisfactory with 68% acetonitrile (containing 0.05 mol L⁻¹ of pH 4.0 sodium acetate-acetic acid buffer salt and 0.1% of tritonX-100) as mobile phase. Palladium, platinum and rhodium were separated completely within 2 min. The detection limits (S/N = 3) of palladium, platinum and rhodium are 1.2 ng L⁻¹, 1.5 ng L⁻¹ and 1.8 ng L⁻¹, respectively. This method was applied to the determination of palladium, platinum and rhodium in water, urine and soil samples with good results.

The cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc and vanadium ions were pre‐column derivatized with 2‐(2‐quinolinylazo)‐4‐methyl‐1,3‐dihydroxidebenzene (QAMDHB) to form colored chelates, then the Co‐QAMDHB, Ni‐QAMDHB, Cu‐QAMDHB, Zn‐QAMDHB and V‐QAMDHB chelates were enriched by solid phase extraction with a C18 cartridge.

Study on Determination of Triterpenoids in Chaenomeles by High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Sample Preparation with Matrix Solid Phase Dispersion

A new method for the simultaneous determination of the major triterpenoids in Chaenomeles (Chinese medicinal herb) by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and sample preparation with matrix solid phase dispersion (MSPD) was developed. A 0.1 g of sample was placed into an agate mortar and gently blended with 0.4 g silica gel to obtain a homogeneous mixture. This mixture was introduced into a Teflon cartridge, and the triterpenoids fraction was eluted from the cartridge with dichloromethane‐acetone (85:15). The residue was dissolved with methanol after the evaporation of the solvent (dichloromethane and acetone). The triterpenoids were separated on a ZORBAX Stable Bound (4.6 mm × 100 mm, 1.8 μm) C₁₈ column by gradient elution with acetonitrile and water as the mobile phase and detected with evaporative light scattering detection. This method provides good reproducibility and sensitivity for the quantification of seven major triterpenoids, namely erythodiol, betulin, acetyl ursolic acid, ursolic acid, oleanolic acid, betulinic acid, pomolic acid, respectively. The relative standard derivations of overall intra‐day variations were less than 2.0%, and the relative standard derivations of inter‐day variations were less than 2.5%. The standard recoveries (three different concentrations of markers: 0.1, 0.5 and 2.0 mg) ranged from 97‐103%. The results demonstrate that this method is simple, sensitive, selective, and suitable for the quality control of this commonly used Chinese medicinal herb.     

Simultaneous determination of platinum(II) and palladium(II) by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography with spectrophotometric detection after collection on and elution from resin coated with dimethylglyoxal bis(4-phenyl-3-thisomicarbazone)

Amberlite XAD-7 resin coated with dimethylglyoxal bis(4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazone) (DMBS) was prepared and applied to the preconcentration of platinum(II) and palladium(II) from aqueous solution. Platinum(II) and palladium(II) were collected quantitatively on resin coated with the reagent (DMBS-XAD-7) from acidic solution in the presence of iodide ion by a bach method. The metal ions were then easily eluted from DMBS-XAD-7 as their DMBS chelates with a small volume of N,N-dimethylformamide. This collection and elution method was applied to the simultaneous determination of platinum(II) and palladium(II) by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with spectrophotometric detection using an ODS column and acetone-water as the mobile phase. The proposed method was applied to the determination of the metals in commercially available samples.     

An ion-exchange method for selective separation of palladium, platinum and rhodium from solutions obtained by leaching automotive catalytic converters

An ion-exchange method has been developed for the separation of palladium, platinum and rhodium from a solution that is highly acidic and contains a considerable amount of lead, aluminum, iron and cerium, obtained by leaching a used honeycomb type automotive catalytic converter. A column of Amberlite IRA-93 anion-exchange resin was found appropriate to recover platinum metals from the pregnant solution. Selective stripping of these metals from the resin was achieved by eluting rhodium first with 6.0M hydrochloric acid, then palladium with a 1% ammonia solution at ambient temperature, and platinum with 5% of the reagent at elevated temperatures. Optimum conditions for leaching these metals from the catalyst were 5.0M hydrochloric acid and 0.4M sodium chlorate at 70 degrees C. This method can be applied to both analytical as well as large scale operations. It is simple, economical, and relatively safe for human exposure and the environment.
