A new reagent (2-ethylhexyl-3-pentadecylphenyl) phosphoric acid (EPPA = HR) was synthesized from cardanol (I, 37300-39-5) and was used to investigate the extraction behaviour of lanthanum(III), europium(III) and lutetium(III) from hydrochloric acid solutions.

Monitoring the elimination of gadolinium-based pharmaceuticals. Cloud point preconcentration and spectrophotometric determination of Gd(III)-2-(3,5-dichloro-2-pyridylazo)-5-dimethylaminophenol in urine

An extraction methodology based on cloud point phase separation of non-ionic surfactants has been developed for the preconcentration of ppb amounts of gadolinium in urine as a prior step to its determination by an absorptiometric procedure. A method based on the formation of complexes with 2-(3,5-dichloro-2-pyridylazo)-5-dimethylaminophenol was used for the extraction of Gd(III) in the surfactant-rich phase of non-ionic surfactant polyethyleneglycolmono-p-nonylphenylether (PONPE 7.5).

The extraction efficiency, linearity, and the limit of detection (LOD) of the method were determined. The optimised procedure was applied to determine total and free Gd(III) contents in real urine samples of patients after the NMR imaging diagnostic examination with contrast agent.     

4-(3,5-dichloro-2-pyridylazo)-1,3-diaminobenzene as a metallochromic indicator for the complexometric determination of Cu(II) with EDTA

In slightly acid solutions Cu(II) and 4-(3,5-dichloro-2-pyridylazo)-1,3-diaminobenzene (3,5-C12PADAB) form a red-purple complex( = 5.0 x 10(4)1.mole(-). cm(-1) at 547 nm). The complex is readily broken by EDTA, with a sharp change of colour to the yellow of the free reagent (Deltalambda(max) = 110 nm at pH 3.5). This colour contrast and the reversibility of the formation reaction, together with the solubility of the complex in water, make the pyridylazo reagent useful as a metallochromic indicator for copper titration, at pH 2.7-5.5. The Cu(II)-3,5-C12PADAB indicator system has been satisfactorily applied to the determination of sulphur in cast iron, "useful oxides" (Al(2)O(3) + Fe(2)O(3)) in samples of commercial aluminium sulphate, and total phosphorus in a synthetic mixed fertilizer.

The ion-pair reversed-phase chromatography of some transition metal chelates with 2-(3,5-dibromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-[N-ethyl-N-(3-sulphopropyl)amino]phenol (3,5-diBr-PAESPAP) was studied. 3,5-DiBr-PAESPAP and its V(V), Cr(III), Fe(II), Co(III) and Ni(II) chelates were retained on and the copper (II), zinc(II) and cadmium(II) chelates dissociated in an ODS column using acetonitrile/water (37+63, v/v) (pH 7.0) containing 0.01 M acetate, 0.01 M 3-(N-morpholino)propanesulphonate buffer (pH 7.0) and 0.05 M Na⁺ as mobile phase. The chromatograms of 3,5-diBr-PAESPAP chelates were compared with those of the chelates with 2-(3,5-dibromo- 2-pyridylazo)-5-[N-(3-sulphopropyl)amino]phenol (3,5-diBr-PASPAP),2-(5-bromo-2- pyridylazo)-5-[N-(3-sulphopropyl)amino]phenol and 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-[N-propyl-N- (3-sulphopropyl)amino] phenol. With 3,5-diBr-PAESPAP the Fe(II) and Ni(II) chelates were not resolved, but resolution was achieved with 3,5-diBr-PASPAP. The calibration graphs were linear over the ranges 2.0–10.0 ng (10-μl injection) of Fe, Ni and Co and for 20–100 ng (10-μl injection) for V with 3,5-diBr-PAESPAP and 3,5-diBr-PASPAP.     

Synergic extraction of lanthanoid(III) with 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone and triphenylarsine oxide in benzene

The synergic extraction of La(III), Eu(III), and Lu(III) with 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (Htta) and triphenylarsine oxide (tpao) in benzene has been studied. The extractability of lanthanoids, Ln(III), is significantly affected by the association of Htta with tpao in the organic phase. The associated species is Htta·tpao and the association constant is determined as 10^1.63. The intrinsic extraction equilibrium of Ln(III) is analyzed using the free concentration of Htta and tpao. The synergic enhancement is ascribable to the formation of the adduct complexes shown as Ln(tta)₃tpao and Ln(tta)₃(tpao)₂ in the present extraction system. The adduct formation constants determined are very large as expected from the high basicity of tpao.
