Selective Solid-liquid Extraction and Liquid-liquid Extraction of Lithium Chloride using Strapped Calix[4]pyrroles
Abstract
LiCl is a classic hard ion salt that is present in lithium-rich brines and a key component in end-of-life materials (that is, used lithium-ion batteries). Its isolation and purification from like salts is a recognized challenge with potential strategic and economic implications. Herein, we describe two ditopic calix[4]pyrrole-based ion-pair receptors (2 and 3), that are capable of selectively capturing LiCl. Under solid-liquid extraction conditions, using 2 as the extractant, LiCl could be separated from a NaCl/KCl salt mixture containing as little as 1% LiCl with circa 100% selectivity, while receptor 3 achieved similar separations when the LiCl level was as low as 200 ppm. Under liquid-liquid extraction conditions using nitrobenzene as the non-aqueous phase, the extraction preference displayed by 2 is KCl>NaCl>LiCl. In contrast, 3 exhibits high selectivity towards LiCl over NaCl and KCl, with no appreciable extraction being observed for the latter two salts.
