The extraction process of the non-toxic simulants has been monitored by means of spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques. The kinetics of the removal process was analyzed by different empirical models. Based on the analysis of the kinetics, we can assess the influence of the amounts of oil and water and the microemulsion structure on the extraction process. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc.

The dithioethers 1-7 and the complex [PdCl2(4)]center dot CHCl3 were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal structures of 1-7 show that 2-7 are better preorganized chelating ligands for an exocyclic PdCl2 coordination than 1. The chelation effect of 1-7, the orientation of the sulfur atoms and the S center dot center dot center dot S donor distances, are influenced by the flexibility of the methylene units. In this series the unsaturated macrocyclic ligands 5 and 6 are the best chelating ligands for an efficient PdCl2 coordination. Comparative solvent extraction experiments with mn-12S(2)O(2) (mn = maleonitrile) reveal that the low interface activity of the new ligands reduces the extraction rate. However, a comparison with open-chain dithiomaleonitriles shows the impact of the macrocyclic effect of 4 and 5 on the extraction yield.}, language = {en} }
