Synergistic ion-pair extraction of lanthanide(III) with thenoyltrifluoroacetone and crown ether into 1,2-dichloroethane

Journal Article · · Solvent Extraction and Ion Exchange

Synergistic extraction of trivalent lanthanides(Ln) was investigated using thenoyltrifluoroacetone(HTTA) and crown ether(CE). Characteristic ion-pair extraction of the lighter Ln(III) was observed with 1,2-dichloroethane containing HTTA and 18-crown-6 or dicyclohexano-18-crown-6, in which the cationic complex, Ln(TTA){sub 2}CE{sup +}, was formed and extracted. Remarkable increases of an extractability and a selectivity were attained in the synergistic ion-pair extraction of the lighter Ln ions, which could be elucidated on the basis of size-fitting effect in the complex formation of the lighter Ln ions with CE. 19 refs., 2 figs., 3 tabs.
