Summary

The extraction properties of 6,8,15,17-tetramethyldibenzo-5,9, 14,18-tetra-azacyclotetradecene have been studied. It has been shown that the reagent possesses high selectivity towards copper(II). The pH-dependence of the distribution of the reagent between aqueous and organic phases has been studied. The distribution constants are logK D =4.24±0.06 for chloroform-water and logK D =1.15±0.04 for methyl isobutyl ketone-water. Copper(II) is extracted as the 1∶1 chelate CuL. The extraction constants are logK ex (CHCl3)=−3.78±0.13, logK ex(MIBK)=−3.23±0.08. The copper(II) extraction can be accelerated by introduction of ascorbic acid. The effect of other elements has been investigated, and only Hg2+ and Pd2+ are appreciably extracted. The procedure has been proposed for the extraction and atomic-absorption determination fo copper in some salts of high purity, with a detection limit of 0.01 ppm in the organic phase.

Zusammenfassung

Die Eignung von (I) als Extraktionsmittel wurde untersucht. Es erwies sich als hochselektives Reagens gegenüber Cu(II). Die pH-Abhängigkeit der Verteilung des Reagens zwischen wäßrigen und organischen Phasen wurde untersucht. Die Verteilungskonstante für Chloroform-Wasser ist logK D =4,24±0,06, für Methylisobutylketon-Wasser logK D =1,15±0,04. Cu(II) wird als Chelat der Zusammensetzung Cu∶L=1∶1 extrahiert. Die Extraktionskonstanten sind: logK ex(CHCl3)=−3,78±0,13 bzw. logK ex(MIBK)=−3,23±0,02. Die Extraktion des Kupfers kann mittels Askorbinsäure beschleunigt werden. Der Einfluß anderer Elemente wurde geprüft: nur Hg2+ und Pd4+ werden deutlich mitextrahiert. Das Verfahren wurde zur Kupferbestimmung in einigen hochreinen Salzen vorgeschlagen. Seine Nachweisgrenze beträgt 0,01 ppm in der organischen Phase.
