Extractants bidentate

The chain-growth catalyst is prepared by dissolving two moles of nickel chloride per mole of bidentate ligand (BDL) (diphenylphosphinobenzoic acid in 1,4-butanediol). The mixture is pressurized with ethylene to 8.8 MPa (87 atm) at 40°C. Boron hydride, probably in the form of sodium borohydride, is added at a molar ratio of two borohydrides per one atom of nickel. The nickel concentration is 0.001—0.005%. The 1,4-butanediol is used to solvent-extract the nickel catalyst after the reaction. 

The soft S2 donor sets presented by these bidentate ligands lead to very strong binding of heavy metals (Table 7) which are not stripped by sulfuric acid, ensuring that these deleterious elements do not transfer to the Zn electrolyte.196 However, co-extraction of copper is accompanied by reduction to Cu1 which has proved very difficult to strip to regenerate the reagent and will lead to poisoning of the extractant unless all traces of copper are removed from the feed solution. 

The reaction to form the palladium complex is similar to that reported for amine salts, although here, because a bidentate chelating ligand is used, no chlorine atoms are retained in the complex, and the system is easy to strip. Also, as both reactions involve initial ion pair extraction, fast kinetics are observed with 3-5 min contact time to reach equilibrium at ambient temperature. The extraction conditions can be easily adjusted in terms of acidity to suit any relative metal concentrations and, because the reagent is used in the protonated form, good selectivity over base metals, such as iron and copper,...

The selectivity of extractive separations of metal ions M" is commonly described by the separation factor (SF), defined as the ratio of the distribution ratios, [Eq. (4.3)], of the ions in the same system. In the case of two metal ions A" and Z" extracted from the same aqueous solution by an acidic bidentate extractant HE, with no synergist in the system, one obtains ... 

DSM370 has patented platinum systems based upon tetrasulfonated bidentate water soluble ligand 29 (Table 2 x=4, m=0, n=0) as catalysts for the hydroformylation of a mixture 1-butene (45%) and 2-butene (22%) with 33% butane at 100°C and 80 bar CO/H2 in an aqueous/methanol (300/32), CF3SO3H acidic medium. The olefin conversion was 86% and the selectivity to the aldehydes 95% (n/i ratio of 2.8) together with small amounts of aldolcondensation products and acids. The products were isolated from the aqueous catalyst mixture leaving the reaction zone by extraction with ether and the aqueous phase recycled to the reactor. 

The action of H202 on acidic dichromate solutions gives an unstable blue species which can be extracted into ether (equation 128).2,518,1428 On the addition of pyridine the blue compound Crvl0(02)2py crystallizes. The molecules are distorted pentagonal pyramids with sideways-bonded peroxo groups (298) 1429 some workers with less refined data have reported rather different bond distances.1430 In water the blue species is considered to be CrO(62)2(OH2), in ether it is Cr0(02)20Et2, and amines such as aniline, bipy and phen can replace the pyridine. With bidentate bipy the coordination sphere becomes essentially a pentagonal bipyramid (299),... 

Partition behaviour of americium(III) chelates with cupferron and other bidentate reagents was studied spectrophotometrically between a number of inert solvents and dilute HC104 solutions.98 Of special interest may be the data on their extractability and colours of chloroform extracts, collected in a tabular form for cupferronate derivatives of 58 metals. The pH ranges for the formation of cupferronates of 39 metal ions have been shown graphically in this publication.99 Solvent extraction and polarographic techniques were employed to study the possible adducts between technetium and cupferron.100 Evidence indicates a Tcm cupferronate and possibly a pertechnitate adduct, but no indication of a technetium(IV) complex was obtained. 

Hydroxyquinoline (oxine, 6), one of the earliest analytical reagents, also is one of the most widely studied N—O bidentates. Its early coordination chemistry was reviewed by Phillips.19 Its use as an in vivo agent in microbiological systems has been reviewed by Schulman and Dwyer.20 The extensive use of oxine and substituted forms, and closely related bidentates, for the analytical solvent extraction and colorimeteric determination of metal ions has been comprehensively reviewed.21 An unusual bridged bonding mode for oxine has been reported in which N monodentate and O... 

B). However, most selective stripping of Ans is undertaken by using complexants under conditions of low acidity or pH region where the bidentate extractants lose their affinity toward Lns. Therefore, other methods were contrived as alternatives.
