  abstract  = {New sulphoxide modified resins were synthesized using poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) as matrix. Infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis were used for characterisation. Solid-phase extraction of Pt-IV, Ru-III and Ru-IV from acidic chloride solutions was performed via batch experiments. Influence of spacer length between sulphoxide and matrix (ethylene, hexamethylene), substitution of sulphoxide (R-1: ethyl, hexyl, phenyl) and bead size of PS-DVB (spherical beads: d(50) < 155 mu m, d(50) < 80 mu m; powder: d(50) < 30 mu m) on adsorption was investigated subjected to acidity. Experimental results showed that ethyl substituted sulphoxide immobilised onto ground PS-DVB and hexamethylene spacer exhibited best adsorption properties. Different kinetic models and isotherms were fitted to the experimental data to identify extraction mechanism. Pt-IV was quantitative sorbed at [HCl] <= 0.1 mol/L whereas Ru-III and Ru-IV sorption ranged between 90\% and 95\% at [HCl] 5 mol/L. Desorption was reached using a solution of 0.5 M thiourea (Tu) in 0.1 M HCl at 90 degrees C. Separation of Pt-IV and Rum occurred at [HCl] <= 0.1 mol/L whereas Pt-IV was extracted and Ru-III remained in solution. A further separation was achieved by extracting Pt-IV and Ru-IV at 5 M HCl followed by sequential elution of Pt-IV with concentrated HCl and Ru-IV with 0.5 M Tu in 0.1 M HCl at 90 degrees C. 2014 Elsevier B.V.

  abstract  = {There is a demand for new and robust PdII extractants due to growing recycling rates. Chelating dithioethers are promising substances for solvent extraction as they form stable square-planar complexes with PdII. We have modified unsaturated dithioethers, which are known to coordinate PdII, and adapted them to the requirements of industrial practice. The ligands are analogues of 1,2-dithioethene with varying electron-withdrawing backbones and polar end-groups. The crystal structures of several ligands and their palladium complexes were determined as well as their electro- and photochemical properties, complex stability and behaviour in solution. Solvent extraction experiments showed the superiority of some of our ligands over conventionally used extractants in terms of their very fast reaction rates. With highly selective 1,2-bis(2-methoxyethylthio)benzene (4) it is possible to extract PdII from a highly acidic medium in the presence of other base and palladium-group metals.},
