Abstract

New Schiff bases containing nitrogen, sulfur and oxygen donor atoms, were designed and synthesized in a multi—step reaction sequence. The Schiff base(I) was used in solvent extraction of metal chlorides such as Cu(II) from aqueous phase to the organic phase. The influences of the parameter functions, such as pH, solvent, ionic strength of aqueous phase, aqueous to organic phase, and concentration of the extractant were investigated to shed light on their chemical extracting properties upon the extractability of metal ions. The effect of chloroform, dichloromethane, and nitrobenzene as organic solvents over the metal chlorides extraction was investigated at 25 ± 0.1°C by using flame atomic absorption and the result is that the ability of extraction in solvents as follows C6H5NO2 > CHCl3 > CH2Cl2.
