Abstract

Abstract Polymers were prepared by condensing p-xylylene dichloride (PXDC) separately with salicylaldehyde (SAL) and o-hydroxy-acetophenone (OHAC) in the presence of anhydrous ferric chloride in dioxane. The polymer samples were characterized by elemental analysis, measurement of their M by vapor pressure osmometry, by nonaqueous conductometric titration in pyridine, by IR spectral study, by TGA in air, and by viscometric study in DMF. The ion-exchange capacities of these polymeric ligands for selected metal ions were measured by the batch equilibration method and compared. Polymeric metal chelates of PXDC-SAL and PXDC-OHAC polymer samples with Cu2 +, Ni2+, Co2+, Fe3 and Zn2 + were prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, by IR spectral study, and by thermal analyses.
