Abstract

ABSTRACTIt was shown that a strong synergistic effect (S ≈ 4000) takes place when extracting manganese (II) from sulfate solutions with mixtures of bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)dithiophosphinic acid (CYANEX 301) and trioctyl phosphine oxide (TOPO. The synergistic effect is caused by the formation of the mixed complex Mn-HR-TOPO. Analysis of the manganese partition between organic and aqueous phase as well as of the IR and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of the extracts showed that manganese forms a hexacoordinated complex with the dithiophosphinate ions and TOPO with an octahedral geometry. The composition of the complex can be presented as MnR2∙2TOPO.Examples of the possible use of the CYANEX 301 and trialkyl phosphine oxide (TAPO, CYANEX 923) mixtures when processing manganese-containing liquors are given.
