Spectrophotometric study of complexation of dibenzopyridino-18-crown-6 with some transition and post-transition metal ions in DMSO solution using murexide as a metallochromic ligand

The complexation reaction of dibenzopyridino-18-crown-6 (DBPY 18C6) with Co²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Pb²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, and Ag⁺ have been studied in DMSO at 25°C by the spectrophotometric method. Murexide was used as a competitive colored ligand. The stoichiometry of metal ion-murexide and metal ions with DBPY18C6 complexes were estimated by mole ratio and continuous variation methods and emphasized by the KINFIT program. The stoichiometry of all the complexes was found to be 1: 1 (metal ion/ligand). The order of stability constants for the obtained metal ion-murexide complexes (1: 1) varies in the order Cu²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Co²⁺ ∼ Pb²⁺ > Zn²⁺ > Ag⁺ > Hg²⁺. This trend shows that the transition metal ions clearly obey the Irving-Williams role. For the post-transition metal ions, the ionic radius and soft-hard behavior was the major affects in varying of this order. The dibenzopyridino-18-crown-6 complexes with the used metal ions vary as Ag⁺ > Pb²⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Hg²⁺ > Zn²⁺ > Co²⁺. The article is published in the original.     

Synthesis and Applications of a New Polysiloxane-Immobilized Macrocyclic Ligand System

Abstract

Insoluble porous solid, macrocyclic 22-membered ring, 1-oxa-6,9,12,15,18-pentaaza-2,22-disilacyclododocosane polysiloxane ligand system has been prepared by the reaction of a macro-silane agent with tetraethylorthosilicate. The macro-silane agent was prepared by the reaction of imino-bis(N-2-aminoethylacetamide) ligand with 3-iodopropyltrimethoxysilane in 1:3 molar ratio. The new prepared polysiloxane system exhibits variable potentials for the extraction of metal ions (Fe³⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Ag⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, and Pb²⁺) from aqueous solutions. The ligand system shows high capacity to extract silver, lead, and mercury. Chemisorption of the metal ions by the ligand system at the optimum conditions was found in the order Ag ⁺ > Pb²⁺ > Hg²⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Ni²⁺ > Fe³⁺ > Co²⁺ > Cd²⁺ > Zn²⁺.     

Spectrophotometric and conductometric studies of the thermodynamics complexation of Zn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Pb2+ and Cu2+ ions with 1,13-bis(8-quinolyl)-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane ligand in acetonitrile solution

The complexation reaction between 1,13-bis(8-quinolyl)-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane ligand (Kryptofix5) and Zn²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions were studied conductometrically in acetonitrile solution. The formation constants of the resulting 1:1 complexes were calculated from the computer fitting of the molar conductance and absorbance measurements in various mole ratios. The enthalpy and entropy changes of the complexation reactions were derived from titration conductometry in acetonitrile at various temperatures. At 25 °C, the stability of the resulting complexes varied in the order Pb²⁺ > Zn²⁺ > Cu²⁺> Co²⁺> Ni²⁺.     

Spectroscopic Characterization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N,N-bis</Emphasis>(2-{[(2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-Dioxolan-4-yl)Methyl]Amino}Ethyl) N′,N′-Dihydroxyethanediimidamide and Its Complexes

A new dioxime ligand, N,N-bis(2-{[(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]amino} ethyl)N′,N′-dihydroxyethanediimidamide (H₂L), and its mononuclear complexes with Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ are synthesized. H₂L forms transition metal complexes [Co(LH)₂(H₂O)₂] and [M(LH)₂] (M = Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺) with a metal : ligand ratio of 1 : 2. Complexes [M(H₂L)(Cl)₂] (Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺) have a metal : ligand ratio of 1 : 1. The mononuclear Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, and Cu²⁺ complexes indicate that the metal ions coordinate ligand through its two N atoms, as the most of dioximes. In the Co²⁺ complex, two water molecules and in the Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ complexes two chloride ions are also coordinated to the metal ion. The structures of these compounds are identified by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, conductivity, and thermogravimetric analysis.__________From Koordinatsionnaya Khimiya, Vol. 31, No. 7, 2005, pp. 540–544.Original English Text Copyright © 2005 by Canpolat, Kaya.The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Study of some metallic silicates as ion-exchangers

The extraction of ammine complexes of Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺ and Zn²⁺ by synthesised manganese, nickel and zinc silicates has been studied at different pH and ionic concentrations in the external solution. It has been found that the uptake of the metal ion Co²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺ increases with increase in pH of the external solution, attains a maximum and then decreases. However, the uptake for Cd²⁺ and Ni²⁺ increases continuously. The q_A values of all the silicates increases with the increase in the concentration of the exchanging ion and its order for the investigated metal ions is Ni²⁺ < Co²⁺ < Cd²⁺ < Zn²⁺ < Cu²⁺.     

Complexing Properties of Phenolic Diazacrown Ethers with Transition and Heavy Metal Ions

The complexation equilibria of the phenolic diazacrown ether derivatives L1–L11 with transition and heavy metal ions (Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺ and Pb²⁺) have been studied in methanol using UV absorption spectrophotometry. A majority of the systems studied formed only ML complexes. Using a ligand with a different position of the substituents on the phenolic side arms (denoted L7) leads to ML₂ formation with most of the metal ions. Every ligand forms very strong ML and ML₂ complexes with Pb²⁺, and, in nearly all cases, only a lower limit could be derived for the stability constant. The stability of the complexes generally increases as the length of the para-substituents on the phenol groups increases. Among the metal ions tested, Zn²⁺ and Hg²⁺ are the least preferred by alkyl and alkoxy derivatives, respectively.     

Complexing properties of cation-exchangers grafted with carboxyl moieties

The complexing properties of CM-52, Olvagel-COOH, MacroPrep 50 CM, and hypercrosslinked polystyrene MN (carboxyl-grafted sorbents) toward Cu²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cd²⁺, Zn²⁺, Mn²⁺, and Pb²⁺ have been studied. The optimal parameters for the sorption of these metal ions from solution have been determined. The pH effect on the ion uptake has been studied. The uptake is maximal at pHs higher than 5–6. When pH is lower than 2, the indicated ions are quantitatively desorbed. Olvagel-COOH is most selective toward these ions.     

Preconcentration and Determination of Trace Amounts of Heavy Metals in Water Samples Using Membrane Disk and Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

A fast and simple method for preconcentration of Ni^2＋, Cd^2＋, Pb^2＋, Zn^2＋, Cu^2＋ and Co^2＋ from natural water samples was developed. The metal ions were complexed with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate （Na-DDTC）, then adsorbed onto octadecyl silica membrane disk, recovered and determined by FAAS. Extraction efficiency, influence of sample volume and eluent flow rates, effects of pH, amount of Na-DDTC, nature and amount of eluent for elution of metal ions from membrane disk, break through volume and limit of detection have been evaluated. The effect of foreign ions on the percent recovery of heavy metal ions has also been studied. The limit of detection of the proposed method for Ni^2＋, Cd^2＋, Pb^2＋, Zn^2＋, Cu^2＋ and Co^2＋was found to be 2.03, 0.47, 3.13, 0.44, 1.24 and 2.05 ng·mL^-1, respectively. The proposed （DDTC） method has been successfully applied to the recovery and determination of heavy metal ions in different water samples.     

Effect of Solvent on Competitive Bulk Membrane Transport of Transition and Post Transition Metal Cations Using Decyl-18-crown-6

A series of competitive metal ion transport experiments have been performed. Each involved transport from an aqueous source phase across an organic membrane phase into an aqueous receiving phase. The source phase contained equimolar concentrations of cobalt(II), nickel(II), cupper(II), zinc(II), cadmium(II), silver(I) and lead(II) metal cations. The membrane phase incorporated ionophore, decyl-18-crown-6. The membrane solvents include: chloroform, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, nitrobenzene and chloroform–nitrobenzene binary solvents. A good transport efficiency and selectivity of Pb²⁺ transport from aqueous solutions are observed in this investigation. The selectivity order for competitive bulk liquid membrane transport of the studied transition and post transition metal cations through chloroform is: Pb²⁺>Co²⁺>Ni²⁺>Ag⁺>Cd²⁺, but in the case of dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane and nitrobenzene as liquid membranes, the selectivity sequences were found to be: Pb²⁺>Co²⁺>Cd²⁺>Cu²⁺>Ag⁺>Ni²⁺>Zn²⁺, Pb²⁺>Co²⁺>Ag⁺>Ni²⁺>Zn²⁺ and Pb²⁺>Co²⁺>Ni²⁺>Zn²⁺>Cd²⁺>Ag⁺, respectively. The transport rate of the metal cations in chloroform–nitrobenzene binary solvents is sensitive to the solvent composition. The transport processes were studied in absence and presence of the stearic acid and the results show that the sequence of selectivities and ion transport rates change in the presence of stearic acid.     

Synthesis of a Dithiocarbamate Chelate Resin and Its Oxidized form and Their Adsorption Properties for Heavy Metal Ions

A series of macroporous dithiocarbamate chelate resins, III and V, and an oxidized resin, VI, with high adsorption capacity were prepared. The influence of various reaction conditions of amination, dithiocarboxylation, and oxidation were examined. The structure and the conversion of functional groups of resins were confirmed by IR spectra and elemental analysis. The adsorption capacities of Resin II for Hg²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, and Cd²⁺ are 4.40, 2.44, 1.77, and 1.36 mmol/g, respectively. The adsorption capacities of Resins V and VI for Cu²⁺. Zn²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co³⁺, Ag⁺, Hg²⁺, Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺, and Au³⁺ are 4.07–0.51 and 3.81–0.59 meq ion/g, respectively. The adsorption rate and the influence of pH on the adsorption percentage of the resins for metal ions were examined. Noble metal, transitional metal, and heavy metal ions can be quantitatively adsorbed by the resins. The adsorbed Cu²⁺, Pb²⁺, Cd²⁺, Co³⁺, and Ni²⁺ can be quantitatively eluted with 5N HNO₃, and the presence of large amounts of Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Fe³⁺, and Al³⁺ did not interfere.     

Silver nanoparticle loaded on activated carbon and activated carbon modified with 2-(4-isopropylbenzylideneamino)thiophenol (IPBATP) as new sorbents for trace metal ions enrichment

The efficiencies and performances of silver nanoparticle loaded activated carbon modified with 2-(4-isopropylbenzylideneamino)thiophenol (IPBATP-Ag-NP-AC) and activated carbon modified with IPBATP (IPBATP-AC), as new sorbents, were evaluated for separation and preconcentration of Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Co²⁺, Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions from real environmental samples.

The experimental parameters influence the recoveries of metal ions including pH, amounts of ligand and supports, condition of eluents, sample and eluent flow rates of has been investigated. The preconcentration factors were found to be 100 for Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Co²⁺, Cu²⁺ and 50 for Pb²⁺ ions using IPBATP-Ag-NP-AC, and 50 for Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Co²⁺, Cu²⁺ and 25 for Pb²⁺ ions using IPBATP-AC. The detection limit of both SPE-based sorbents was between 1.6–2.5?ng?mL^?1 for IPBATP-AC and 1.3–2.5?ng?mL^?1 for IPBATP-Ag-NP-AC. The proposed methods have been successfully applied for the extraction and determination of the understudy metal ions content in some real samples with extraction efficiencies higher than 90% and relative standard deviations (RSD) lower than 2.4%.     

Study of the interaction of mono-, di-, and trisubstituted sodium orthophosphates with thermally activated dolomite

Interaction of dolomite thermally treated at 800°C with solutions of mono-, di-, and trisubstituted sodium phosphate was studied. It was shown that thermally treated dolomite binds 0.75 to 3.0 mmol g^–1 of phosphorus, depending on the nature of a phosphating reagent, and the interaction mostly occurs with magnesium oxide, which enables use of this kind of dolomite as a sorbent of phosphate ions. It was found that the nature of the phosphating reagent affects the chemical and phase composition of the materials obtained, as well as their sorption properties with respect to heavy metal ions. The products formed in acid-free phosphation of dolomite have high sorption capacity, from 1.5 to 6.8 mmol g^–1 for Pb²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺, Ni²⁺, Sr²⁺, and Co²⁺ ions, which enables their use as effective sorbents for heavy metal ions.urning.

Bulgarian natural diatomites: modification and characterization

Natural Bulgarian diatomite modified by oxidation with sulfuric acid and H₂O₂ or by coating with manganese oxide was characterized considering its chemical composition, surface area, pore volume, and structure. Modified diatomites displayed larger surface area and pore volumes in comparison with untreated natural diatomite, which favored their sorption behavior. Sorption properties of diatomites towards Fe³⁺, Pb²⁺, Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺, Mn²⁺, Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Cr³⁺, Pd²⁺, Ca²⁺, and Mg²⁺ were investigated and their sorption capacities were determined. Sorption properties of manganese oxide-modified diatomite were superior to those of diatomite modified by oxidation. Owing to its high sorption capacity towards Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Pb²⁺, Cr³⁺, Fe²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Cd²⁺, the manganese oxide-modified diatomite is a promising low-cost sorbent for selective removal of milligram amounts of these toxic metal ions from contaminated water.

The selectivity and sensitivity of H2L were estimated in various solvents in the presence of other metal cations (Na⁺, Mg²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺, Hg²⁺, Pb²⁺).     

Kinetic Study of Metals Sorption on a Resin Modified with Tetrakis(carboxyphenyl)Porphyrin

 The sorption of metal ions (e.g. Cd²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺) from aqueous solution on the anion exchange resin Amberlite IRA-904 modified with tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) was studied in batch equilibrium experiments. The influence of operating variables such as initial pH and contact time between solution and the resin on the equilibrium parameters was measured. The selectivity order of investigated metal ions was evaluated as follows: Pb²⁺ > Ni²⁺ > Cu²⁺ > Cd²⁺. The matrix cations, such as Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺, exhibit very low affinity for TCPP-modified resin. The rate uptake of the sorption procedure is predominantly controlled by film diffusion. The best retention kinetic was observed for lead where half the saturation of the TCPP-modified sorbent was achieved in less than 5 min. Author for correspondence.
