Extraction,complex formation and spectrophotometric determination of iron(III) with 2-carbethoxy-5-hydroxy-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridone

Summary The extraction of iron(III) from aqueous HCl, H₂SO₄, HClO₄, HNO₃ solutions by 2-carbethoxy-5-hydroxy-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridone (HA) dissolved in CHCl₃ has been studied. Quantitative extraction of iron(III) is achieved if the concentration of the acids does not exceed 1N. The composition of the iron (III)—HA complex formed in the organic phase was investigated spectrophotometrically, radiometrically and by analysis of the isolated species. In the aqueous phase iron (III) and HA form three different complexes, depending on the initial iron: HA concentration ratio and the pH of the solution. They are the violet FeA²⁺, the orange-red FeA₂ ⁺ and the orange-yellow FeA₃. The latter is identical with the complex found in the organic phase, which was isolated as a solid crystalline material and characterized by elemental analysis and infrared spectroscopy. A spectrophotometric method for the determination of iron(III) in the aqueous phase and in the chloroform solution, by extraction with HA, is described.

Zusammenfassung Die Extraktion von Fe(III) aus wäßrigen Lösungen von HCl, H₂SO₄, HClO₄ oder HNO₃ mit 2-Carbäthoxy-5-hydroxy-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridon (HA) in chloroformischer Lösung wurde untersucht. Sie verläuft quantitativ, wenn die Konzentration der Säure nicht größer ist als 1-n. Die Zusammensetzung des Fe(III)-HA-Komplexes in der organischen Phase wurde spektrophotometrisch, radiometrisch und durch Analyse der isolierten Substanz untersucht. In wäßrigem Milieu bilden Eisen(III) und HA drei verschiedene Komplexe je nach dem anfänglichen Konzentrationsverhältnis Fe(III): HA und je nach dem pH der Lösung. FeA²⁺ ist violett, FeA₂ ⁺ ist orange-rot und FeA₃ orangegelb. Diese Verbindung ist mit dem in der organischen Phase gefundenen Komplex identisch, der in kristallisierter Form isoliert und durch Elementaranalyse und IR-Spektrometrie charakterisiert wurde. Eine spektrophotometrische Methode zur Eisen(III)-Bestimmung in wäßriger Phase und in chloroformischer Lösung durch Extraktion mit HA wurde beschrieben.

     

Extraction and complex formation of niobium(V) with 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridone

The extraction of niobium(V) from aqueous hydrochloric and sulphuric acid solutions with 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridone (HY) dissolved in chloroform is described. Niobium(V) can be quantitatively extracted with HY in the form of two different complexes depending on the chloride ion concentration in the aqueous phase. At a low chloride concentration or without chloride in the aqueous phase niobium(V) is extracted with HY in the form of Nb(OH)₃Y₂ and at a high chloride concentration as a mixed Nb(OH)₃ClY complex. Niobium extraction with HY enables the separation of niobium(V) from zirconium(IV) and hafnium(IV). The formation of a mixed chloro-4-pyridone complex is also applicable for the spectrophotometric determination of niobium in the organic phase at the maximum absorption at 350 nm.     

Extraction and separation of uranium(VI) and protactinium(V) with 1-(4-tolyl)-2-methyl-3-hydroxy-4-pyridone

Summary The extraction of uranium(VI) from aqueous hydrochloric or nitric acid, and the extraction of protactinium from hydrochloric acid by 1-(4-tolyl)-2-methyl-3-hydroxy-4-pyridone (HY) dissolved in chloroform has been studied. At pH >4, uranium (VI) is quantitatively extracted while at pH < 1 practically all the uranium remains in the aqueous phase. At hydrochloric acid concentrations lower than 1M, protactinium(V) is quantitatively extracted while at hydrochloric acid concentration higher than 5M practically all the protactinium remains in the aqueous phase. This difference in extraction of uranium and protactinium was utilized for their separation. From 0.5M hydrochloric acid, protactinium is quantitatively extracted, and separated from uranium.The composition of the extracted uranium(VI) and protactinium (V) complexes was studied. A uranium complex with the formula UO₂Y₂ · HY was isolated from the chloroform solution. The solution of this complex in chloroform has a maximum absorbance at 319 nm and the molar absorptivity is 3.1×10⁴ l · mole^–1 · cm^–1. Owing to this property uranium can be determined spectro-photometrically directly in the organic phase.

Zusammenfassung Die Extraktion von Uran(VI) aus wäßriger Salzsäure oder Salpetersäure sowie die Extraktion von Protaktinium aus Salzsäure mit 1-(4-Tolyl)-2-methyl-3-hydroxy-4-pyridon (HY) in chloroformischer Lösung wurde untersucht. Bei pH > 4 wird U(VI) quantitativ extrahiert, während bei pH < 1 praktisch alles Uran in der wäßrigen Phase bleibt. Bei Salzsäurekonzen-trationen unter 1-m wird Protaktinium (V) quantitativ extrahiert, während bei Salzsäurekonzentrationen über 5-m praktisch alles Pa in der wäßrigen Phase bleibt. Dieser Unterschied bei der Extraktion der beiden Elemente wurde für deren Trennung benützt. Pa wird aus 0,5-m Salzsäure quantitativ extrahiert und so von Uran getrennt.Die Zusammensetzung der extrahierten U (VI)- und Pa (V)-Komplexe wurde untersucht. Ein Urankomplex der Formel UO₂ · Y₂ · HY wurde aus der Chloroformlösung isoliert. Die Lösung dieses Komplexes in Chloroform hat ein Absorptionsmaximum bei 319 nm und eine molare Extinktion von 3,1 · 10⁴ l · mol^–1 · cm^–1. Auf Grund dieser Eigenschaft kann Uran spektrophotometrisch direkt in der organischen Phase bestimmt werden.

     

Extraction and spectrophotometric determination of titanium(iv) with 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridone

Titanium(IV) in sulphuric, perchloric and hydrochloric acid media reacts with 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridone (HY) to give a complex which is extractable into chloroform. The composition of the extractable complex depends on the acidity of the aqueous phase and on which mineral acid is used. The mixed titanium-perchlorate-HY complex which is formed in the presence of excess of perchlorate is the most suitable for the spectrophotometric determination of titanium. The molar absorptivity of the complex is 1.6×10⁴1·mole^–1·cm^–1 at 355 nm. The optimum titanium concentration range is 0.5–6,g/ml. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of titanium in samples of bauxite and alumina refractory.

Solvent extraction separation of tantalum from niobium on macro scale using di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid as extractant

A solvent extraction procedure for the separation of niobium and tantalum has been developed. The method consists of extracting tantalum from its aqueous mixture with niobium, with the help of di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) in n-heptane. The aqueous feed consists of niobium and tantalum in an aqueous medium containing hydrochloric and oxalic acids. The concentrations of niobium and tantalum were raised to 1 mg/ml in the aqueous solution. The extraction efficiency of tantalum under these conditions was found to be 85%. Effects of chloride and oxalate ions as well as those of the concentration of HDEHP on the extraction efficiency were studied and discussed in detail.

Spectrophotometric determination of niobium in zirconium with 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol

The direct spectrophotometric determination of niobium in zirconium alloys with 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol is described. Samples are dissolved in hydrofluoricsulphuric acid mixture and the colour developed without the removal of fluoride. In the presence of EDTA only Co²⁺, Ta⁵⁺ and V⁵⁺ cause serious interference. The molar absorptivity is 3.67 .10⁴ in the presence of 1 /smg of zirconium, and Beer's law is obeyed up to 1.0μg Nb/ml. The method can be applied to zirconium alloys containing as little as 0.005% niobium.

Enantiomeric separation of novel anticancer agent 5-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-cyclopent-2-en-1-one

The enantiomers of 5-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-cyclopent-2-en-1-one, a novel anticancer agent, were separated by derivatisation with caronaldehyde, separation of the resulting diastereoisomers of the corresponding esters by silica gel column chromatography and regeneration of alcohols (S)-5-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-cyclopent-2-en-1-one and (R)-5-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-cyclopent-2-en-1-one under aqueous conditions. The absolute configuration of the enantiomers was determined by 1H NMR studies of the corresponding Mosher esters. Alternatively, the enantiomers were separated by preparative HPLC to collect the (S)- and (R)-5-hydroxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-cyclopent-2-en-1-ones with high purity which was comparable with that obtained by the chemical method. The details of these methods have been presented herein.
