Synthesis of pincer-type extractants for selective extraction of palladium from PGMs: An improved liquid-liquid extraction approach to current refining processes
Abstract SCS pincer ligands 1–4 were synthesised, and their ability to extract Pd(II) from HCl and HNO3 media was studied. The Pd(II) extraction properties of 1–4 were compared with those of commercial extractants (DOS and LIX®84-I) in kerosene. 1 and 2 showed superior Pd(II) extractability (E% = 99...

| Sumario: | Abstract SCS pincer ligands 1–4 were synthesised, and their ability to extract Pd(II) from HCl and HNO3 media was studied. The Pd(II) extraction properties of 1–4 were compared with those of commercial extractants (DOS and LIX®84-I) in kerosene. 1 and 2 showed superior Pd(II) extractability (E% = 99.9) relative to DOS and LIX®84-I from 0.1–8.0 M HCl and to DOS from 0.1–8.0 M HNO3 and mixed HCl + HNO3 media. The Pd(II) extraction rate, acid durability, the most suitable organic/aqueous (O/A) phase ratio, and Pd(II) loading capacity of extractants 1, 2, and DOS were evaluated. 1 and 2 exhibited a greater Pd(II) extraction rate and Pd(II) loading capacity than DOS. 1 was very stable in acid media (HCl and HCl + HNO3), whereas 2 and DOS deteriorated in HCl + HNO3. Selective extraction of Pd(II) by 1 and 2 was achieved from a mixed solution containing Pd, Pt, Rh, rare metals, and base metal ions that simulated the leach liquors of automotive catalysts. The back extraction of Pd(II) and reusability of extractants 1 and 2 were studied. The Pd(II) extraction mechanism of 1–4 was investigated using FT-IR, UV-visible, and NMR spectroscopy. |
