Extraction of gold(III), palladium(II), and platinum(IV) by 1-[2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-propyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-ylmethyl]-1H-1,2,4-triazole from hydrochloric acid solutions

Abstract

The extraction of gold(III), palladium(II), and platinum(IV) with 1-[[2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-propyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl]methyl]-1H-1,2,4-triazole from hydrochloric acid solutions into toluene has been studied. The extraction follows the anion-exchange mechanism. The concentration constants and thermodynamic parameters of the extraction reaction have been calculated. The reagent is proposed for use in the extraction of the sum of precious metals.
