Abstract
The aminophosphine ligand was synthesized by the reaction of N-ethylaniline with chlorodiphenylphosphine in the presence of triethylamine at low temperature. Oxidation of the ligand with elemental sulfur or selenium afforded the corresponding aminophosphine sulfide and selenide. The compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H and 31P NMR. N-diphenylphosphino-N-ethylaniline and its chalcogen derivatives were used as ligands in solvent extraction of metal picrates such as Cd2+ and Ni2+ from the aqueous to the organic phase. Influences of parameters such as pH of the aqueous phase, solvent, extraction time, and extradant concentration were investigated to determine the extraction ability of ligands for metal ions. Results of the experiments showed that an extractability of 95.5 and 97.8%, respectively for Ni2+, and Cd2+ at pH 2 could be achieved.
