Miniaturization of Anthracene-Containing Nonapeptides for Selective Precipitation/Recovery of Metallic Gold from Aqueous Solutions Containing Gold and Platinum Ions

The separation and recovery of noble metals is increasingly of interest, in particular the recovery of gold nanocrystals, which have applications in medicine and industry. Typically, metal recovery is performed using liquid–liquid extraction or electrowinning. However, it is necessary to develop nob...

description The separation and recovery of noble metals is increasingly of interest, in particular the recovery of gold nanocrystals, which have applications in medicine and industry. Typically, metal recovery is performed using liquid–liquid extraction or electrowinning. However, it is necessary to develop noble metal recovery systems providing high selectivity in conjunction with a one-pot setup, ready product recovery, and the use of dilute aqueous solutions. In prior work, our group developed a selective gold recovery process using peptides. This previous research showed that RU065, a nonapeptide containing an anthracene moiety (at a concentration of 2.0 × 10<sup>−4</sup> M), is capable of selective reduction of HAuCl<sub>4</sub> to recover gold from a solution of HAuCl<sub>4</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>PtCl<sub>6</sub>, each at 5.0 × 10<sup>−5</sup> M.
