Chelating ion-exchangers containing n-substituted hydroxylamine functional groups : Part IV. Column separations on a hydroxamic acid resin

Ion exchange separations on a new hydroxamic acid ion exchanger are described. Quantitative separation of iron(III) from various salts and from several analytical standards has been achieved, and sources of interference in the colorimetric determination of iron with thioglycollic acid can be eliminated. Quantitative separations of copper from iron and from cobalt and nickel are possible. Recoveries and separations of iron and uranium from simulated sea-water samples are demonstrated.     

Chelating ion-exchangers containing n-substituted hydroxylamine functional groups : Part II. N-acylphenylhydroxylamines

The problems associated with the conversion of commercial carboxylic acid ion exchangers to the acid chloride have been studied and a synthesis of a cross-linked poly(acryloyl chloride) is described. Reaction with phenylhydroxylamine produced a chelating ion exchanger, possessing acyl oxime functional groups, whose properties are compared with those of an aroyl oxime exchanger described earlier. Resin capacity from the acyl oxime group was 0.45 mmole g^-1, and the resin had a rapid equilibration rate. A column separation of mercury and lead is discussed.     

Chelating ion-exchangers containing N-substituted hydroxylamine functional groups: Part I. N-aroylphenylhydroxylamines

Chelating ion exchangers containing N-carbonylphenylhydroxylamine functional groups have been synthesized and their exchange behaviour with copper, cobalt, iron, vanadium and uranium investigated. Of the two polymers described, a linear oxime-carbonyl polymer exhibited chelating capacity as a function of pH analogous to the chelates formed by BPHA. An oxime-carbonyl polymer based on polyethyleneimine had high capacities for the metal ions studied, but the principal mode of reaction was by electron donation from nitrogen atoms. The absence of co-ion in metal ion capacity studies indicates the possibility of formation of 1:2 and 1:3 metal complexes with the resin. Separations of iron(II)-iron(III) and vanadium-iron appear possible.     

Chelating ion-exchangers containing n-substituted hydroxylamine functional groups: Part 6. Sorption and separation of gold and silver by a polyhydroxamic acid

The sorption and desorption characteristics of gold and silver on a polyhydroxamic acid chelating resin are described. Gold is quantitatively sorbed from 0.5 M nitric acid or neutral solutions, and readily eluted with 0.5% ($\text{w}\text{v}$) potassium cyanide solution. Silver is removed from 0.05 M nitric acid or neutral solutions, and can be eluted with the cyanide solution or with 0.5 M nitric acid. Gold can be quantitatively separated from copper, iron and silver; gold and silver are sorbed from dilute cyanide solutions. Tests with river water and other eluting systems are reported.     

A new chelating ion-exchanger containing p-bromophenylhydroxamic acid as functional group-IV: column separations on a hydroxamic acid resin

A new chelating resin based on macroreticular acrylonitrile-divinylbenzene copolymer and containing hydroxamic acid functional groups has been synthesized. It is highly stable in acidic and alkaline solutions. The sorption characteristics of Cu(II), Cd(II), Pb(II), Zn(II), U(VI), Cr(VI), V(V), Co(II), Ni(II), Ca(II) and Mg(II) have been investigated over the pH range 1.0-6.0. The effect of various electrolytes at different ionic strengths on the K(d) values for Cu(II), Cd(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II) has been studied systematically. Chromatographic separations of copper(II) and nickel(II) from cobalt (II), and of uranium(VI) from chromium(VI) by selective sorption at controlled pH, have been developed. The ion-exchanger can be used for purification of inorganic salts, and analysis of brass and bauxite.     

Extractive separation of molybdenum as Mo(V) xanthate from Iron, vanadium, Tungsten, copper, uranium and other elements

A simple and selective extraction of molybdenum is described. Tungsten is masked with tartaric acid and molybdenum(VI) is reduced in 2M hydrochloric acid by boiling with hydrazine sulphate. Iron, copper and vanadium are then masked with ascorbic acid, thiourea and potassium hydrogen fluoride respectively. The molybdenum(V) is extracted as its xanthate complex into chloroform, from 1M hydrochloric acid that is 0.4M potassium ethyl xanthate. The complex is decomposed by excess of liquid bromine, and the molybdenum is stripped into alkaline hydrogen peroxide solution. The molybdenum is then determined by standard methods. Large amounts of Cu(II), Mn(II), Fe(III), Ti(IV), Zr, Ce(IV), V(V), Nb, Cr(VI), W(VI), U(VI), Re(VII) and Os(VIII) do not interfere. Several synthetic samples and ferromolybdenum have been rapidly and satisfactorily analysed by the method.     

Efficient electrosorption of uranium(VI) by B,N, and P co-doped porous carbon materials containing phosphate functional groups

Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry - In this paper, polyphosphazene was synthesized as precursors using benzene-1,4-diboronic acid and hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene (HCCP) by a simple one-step...     

Photoinitiators with functional groups. V. New water‐soluble photoinitiators containing carbohydrate residues and copolymerizable derivatives thereof

The synthesis of new water‐soluble photoinitiators (PIs) based on hydroxyalkylphenones, benzophenones, and thioxanthones with carbohydrate residues such as glucose, cellobiose, and 1‐amino‐1‐deoxy‐D ‐glucitol (glucamine) is described. In addition, selected initiators were reacted with methacryloyl chloride to obtain copolymerizable initiators with improved migration stability. Results from photo differential scanning calorimetry and gel‐content measurements in commercially available water‐thinnable and emulsion‐type resins as well as 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate are included. Glucose‐modified PIs gave the best results with respect to compatibility with the resin, reactivity, and gel content. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Aromatic polyethers,polysulfones, and polyketones as laminating resins. V. Polymers containing acetylenic side groups

1,3-Bis(p-phenoxybenzenesulfonyl)benzene and 4,4′-diphenoxydiphenyl sulfone were polymerized with isophthaloyl and terephthaloyl chloride in Friedel-Crafts type polymerizations. These polymers had 2,4-diphenoxyacetophenone in the backbone. The acetyl group was then converted into an acetylene group. They were crosslinked effectively by cyclization of the acetylene groups with a catalyst or by cyclo-addition with bisnitrile oxides.     

Studies on polymers containing functional groups. III. Charge-transfer interaction between quinone and aza polymers

Absorption maxima and equilibrium constants for charge-transfer complexes between quinone and aza polymers, such as poly-2-vinylpyridine, poly-4-vinylpyridine, poly-2-methyl-5-vinylpyridine, and poly-N-dimethylaminomethylacrylamide, were determined spectrophotometrically. For comparison, those for charge-transfer complexes between quinone and aza compounds, such as pyridine, methyl-substituted pyridines, quinoline, triethylamine, and dimethylaniline were also presented. It was found that the equilibrium constants for polymer complexes are always larger than those for the corresponding monomer complexes, while the time required for attaining the equilibrium was longer for polymer complexes than for monomer complexes. In the interaction between quinone and poly-N-dimethylaminomethylacrylamide, two absorption maxima which gradually shifted towards each other were observed. The same phenomenon was found in the interaction between quinone and the corresponding monomer, triethylamine.     

Niobium(III) as an analytical reagent. : Part I. The titrimetric determination of iron,copper, thallium,molybdenum, uranium and vanadium

Niobium(III) solutions can be used in direct titrations of copper(II), iron(III), thallium(III), moIybdenum(VI), vanadium(V) and uranium(VI) in milligram amounts. Phenosafranine is generally satisfactory as the indicator, but potentiometric end-points can also be used. Copper and iron can be determined successively when a mixed indicator containing phenosafranine and méthylene blue is used. Thallium(I) and thallium (III) can be determined in mixtures. The niobium (III) solutions are stable for several days under a carbon dioxide atmosphere.     

Studies on hindered phenols and analogues. V. Synthesis, identification, and antidiabetic activity of the glucuronide of CS-045.

The glucuronide of a new oral antidiabetic agent, (+/-)-5-[4-(6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-yl- methoxy)benzyl]thiazolidine-2,4-dione (CS-045) (1), was synthesized to confirm the structure of a metabolite in monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) and to examine its antidiabetic activity. The glucuronide also had antidiabetic activity in KK-mice.     

Studies on polymers containing functional groups. VI. Kinetics of the polymerization and copolymerization behaviors of o-hydroxystyrene

Some kinetic studies were made of the homopolymerization of o-hydroxystyrene and its copolymerization behavior with styrene and methyl methacrylate in tetrahydrofuran using azobisisobutyronitrile as initiator were done. The rate of polymerization experimentally obtained is given by R_p = K[M][I]^0.72. Accordingly, it is likely that the growing chain radicals are terminated not only by mutual termination but also by a chain-transfer mechanism, the latter occupying a considerable portion. The latter is mostly attributed to the transfer to monomer, i.e., C_m for o-hydroxystyrene was 1.3 × 10^?2. Some transfer mechanisms were assumed, although it is difficult to elucidate the mechanism in detail, owing to its complexity. Effects of solvent on the rate of polymerization were examined, dioxane, methyl ethyl ketone, ethanol, and tetrahydrofuran being used. However, no differences were found among the solvents. The apparent activation energy of polymerization was found to be 21.5 kcal./mole. Monomer reactivity ratios and Alfrey-Price Q–e values for o-hydroxystyrene were determined. The Q–e values (Q = 1.41, e = ?1.13) are rather similar to those of p-methoxystyrene. Thus, the e value for o-hydroxystyrene is more negative than that for styrene.     

Ion-exchange resins containing s-bonded dithizone and dehydrodithizone as functional groups : Part 2. Desoprtion properties and development of separation procedures for gold and platinum group metals

The desorption of precious metals from the PD and PTD ion-exchange resins, containing S-bonded dithizone and dehydrodithizone as functional groups, is described. Each sorbent was loaded batchwise with individual or combined metals and then treated with excess of various extracting agents (6 M hydrochloric acid, 2 M perchloric acid, ammonium nitrate, sodium thiocyanate, thiourea). Strong retention of some adsorbed metals and instability during the loading and elution stages were found with the PD resin, but a selective separation of palladium and gold from accompanying metals was possible. The PTD resin had superior properties. Unsual effects were detected when elution rates were compared for individual metals and mixtures. While Pd and Pt, loaded individually, were desorbed quantitatively by thiourea, co-extracted Ir(IV) completely inhibited their elution. The regeneration of PTD by special sequences of eluents was utilized for selective chromatographic separation of Pd, Pt, Os, Au and (with restrictions) Ir from each other and also from large amounts of base metals and salts.     

Ion exchange separation in the analysis of bismuth base alloys : Part II. Ternary alloys containing uranium and thorium

Procedures are described for the analysis of bismuth base alloys containing uranium and thorium in the range from 0.1 to 10%. The thorium is first separated by the passage of a solution of the sample in 5M hydrochloric acid through a column of Deacidite FF in the chloride form. For thorium contents greater than about 1%, the determination is completed volumetrically with EDTA using pyrocatechol violet as the indicator. Smaller amounts are determined absorptiometrically by the thoronol method. Uranium is recovered from the ion-exchange column in a quantity of 0.2M hydrochloric acid, bismuth still being retained by the column under these conditions. Uranium contents greater than about 1% are determined volumetrically after reduction to the tetravalent state with a lead reductor, whilst smaller amounts are determined polarographically using a tartrate base solution.     

Merocyanine dyes containing imide functional groups: synthesis and studies on hydrogen bonding to melamine receptors

The condensation of the CH acidic heterocycles 4-alkyl-2,6-dioxo-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (5a and b) and barbituric acid (15) with electron-rich thiophene aldehydes and benzaldehyde derivatives affords the respective monomethine dyes 10-13 and 17-19. The formylation of 5a,b and 15 with N,N'-diphenylformamidine or dibutylformamide in acetic anhydride and further reaction with 4-picolinium salts 9a,b provide the dimethine dyes 14 and 20a,b. Triple hydrogen bonding of the imide groups of merocyanine dyes 10-14 has been investigated by NMR titration experiments with melamine 21. Despite rather pronounced variations of the charge-transfer properties within the given series of dyes, minor changes of their binding constants have been observed. These results could be rationalized by semiempirical calculations that reveal small changes in the charge density at the oxygen functionalities involved in hydrogen bonding upon variation of the electron-donating carbocyclic or heterocyclic groups at the terminal double bond. Although the binding constants for triple hydrogen bonding between imides and melamines are rather weak in chloroform, they proved to be strong enough to facilitate dissolution of some of these dyes in aliphatic solvents by coordination to amphiphilic melamines and dipolar aggregation. UV-vis spectral changes observed in methylcyclohexane vs chloroform suggest the formation of colloidal assemblies through noncovalent polymerization.     

Ion-exchange resins containing S-bonded dithizone and dehydrodithizone as functional groups : Part 1. Preparation of the Resins and Investigation of the Sorption of Noble Metals and Base Metals

The one-step reaction of dehydrodithizone with chloromethylated polystyrene yields the anion-exchanger P-TD. Reduction of the immobilized tetrazolium groups of P-TD produces a chelating resin, P-D, containing S-bonded dithizone as the functional group. Distribution coefficients as a function of acidity are presented for 27 metal ions, to establish the selectivity of these sorbents for noble metals. For gold and platinum group metals, the ion-exchangers show marked differences in loading capacities, rates of simultaneous sorption in static conditions and efficiencies in column tests. The P-TD anion exchanger seems to be more profitable than the P-D chelating resin for most purposes.     

Liquid phase oxidation of transition metals. Part 6. iron and copper complexes containing dimethylsulphoxide,dimethylformamide, and acetonitrile. Anomalous states of ligands

Summary Direct oxidation of iron and copper in a donor-acceptor medium, L + CCl₄, where L is dimethylsulphoxide, dimethylformamide or acetonitrile was employed to obtain complex compounds:cis-[FeCl₂(DMSO)₄]Cl] (3), 2 FeCl₃ · 3 DMSO (5), [FeCl(DMSO)₅][FeCl₄]₂] (6), [FeCl(DMSO)₅][Fe₂Cl₆O] (7),cis-[FeCl₂(DMF)₄][FeCl₄] (8), [Fe(MeCN)₆][FeCl₄]₂ (9) andcis-[CuCl₂(DMF)₂]₂ (10), The structures of complexes (9) and (10) have been established by x-ray diffraction analysis and compared with those of (3), (6), (7) and (8) which are reported elsewhere.The [FeCl(DMSO)₅][Fe₂Cl₆O] complex (7) is formed by oxidation of iron fromcis-[Fe^IIICl₂(DMSO)₄]₂[Fe^IICl₄] (4) in ethanol. One of the 5 DMSO molecules of (7) was found to be disordered; the Mössbauer spectroscopy data suggest that it can move within the cation coordination sphere.Mössbauer spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction analysis indicate electron isomerism in one of the complexes.For papers 4 and 5 of these series see refs. 1 and 2.     

Ion-exchange resins containing s-bonded dithizone and dehydrodithizone as functional groups : Part 3. Determination of Gold,Platinum and Palladium in Geological Samples by means of a Dehydrodithizone Resin and Plasma Emission Spectrometry

A procedure is described for the determination of gold, platinum and palladium in sulphide ores, concentrates and mattes. The method is based on chromatographic separation and selective elution of precious metals on small resin beds (0.7 × 2.5 cm) of the sorbent P-TD. After roasting, the samples were digested with aqua regia, and the residues fused with sodium peroxide. The acid leaching solutions obtained from both procedures were separately passed through an ion-exchange column. The metals were quantitatively retained after one loading step and eluted by a sequence of 2 M perchloric acid and 5% (w/v) thiourea solution. Preconcentrated Au, Pt and Pd were finally quantified with a d.c. plasma emission spectrometer. The effect of roasting temperature on the recovery of precious metals as well as the efficiency of the aqua regia leaching from the different materials were investigated in detail. Repeated analyses of standard reference samples proved the proposed method to be reliable.     

Low-dimensional compounds containing cyano groups. XV. Preparation,crystal structure and spectral properties of three copper(II) nitrosodicyanomethanide complexes

We describe the preparation and crystal structures of the ionic complexes [Cu(bipy)₂{ONC(CN)₂}]CF₃SO₃ (1b), [Cu(phen)₂{ONC(CN)₂}]PF₆ (2p) and [Cu(bipy)₂{ONC(CN)₂}]PF₆ (2b). In the complex cations [Cu(L)₂{ONC(CN)₂}]⁺ (L is 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen)) the two molecules of bipy or phen coordinate to the copper atom through two nitrogen atoms along with the oxygen atom of the nitrosodicyanomethanide anion, ONC(CN) ₂ ^? , to form a {CuN₄O} chromophore with a distorted square pyramidal coordination sphere in (1b) and (2b) and a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry in (2p). The basal plane in (1b) and (2b) is formed by an oxygen atom coordinated at the Cu1–O1 distance of 1.990(2) and 2.002(2) Å, respectively, and three nitrogen atoms coordinated to the copper atom at similar distances with the average of 2.01(2) and 2.00(3) Å, respectively. The axial position is occupied by the fourth N atom at the longer distance of 2.222(2) and 2.185(2) Å, respectively. The trifluoromethanesulfonate anion (triflate), CF₃SO ₃ ^? , in (1b) might be considered as very weakly coordinated in the opposite axial position (Cu1–O2 = 2.719(2) Å). The equatorial plane in (2p) is formed by an oxygen atom coordinated at the Cu1–O1 distance of 1.975(3) Å, and two nitrogen atoms from different phen molecules coordinated to the copper atom at the same distance within 2 σ with the average distance of 2.124(2) Å. The axial positions are occupied by remaining two nitrogen atoms coordinated at shorter distance (average Cu–N = 1.99(3) Å). The hexafluorophosphate anions, PF ₆ ^? , in (2p) and (2b) remain uncoordinated. Besides the ionic forces, the structures of (2p) and (2b) may be stabilized by very weak C–H···F whereas the structure of (1b) by very weak C–H···F, C–H···O and C–H···N hydrogen bonds. The structural–spectral correlations are also discussed.
