Abstract
The extraction of microquantities of Ca(II), Sr(II), and Ba(II) from aqueous solutions into the organic phase containing a diglycolamide ligand N,N,N′,N′- tetraoctyl-3-oxapentane diamide (TODGA) and ionic liquids (ILs) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide ([C4mim][Tf2N]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C4mim][PF6]) has been studied. The effect of HNO3 concentration in the aqueous phase and that of the extractant and IL concentration in the organic phase on the extraction of metal ions is considered. The stoichiometry of the extracted complexes and conditional extraction constants of alkaline earth metal ions have been determined. A considerable synergistic effect was observed in the presence of ILs in the organic phase containing diglycolamide ligands. This effect is connected with the hydrophobic nature of the IL anion. The partition of ILs between the equilibrium organic and aqueous phases can govern the extractability of alkaline earth metal ions in TODGA - IL systems.
