The novel cloud point extraction procedure for preconcentration of copper(II) was discovered. A simple chemical method for initiating the cloud point extraction (CPE) has been proposed. The formation of surfactant rich phase in a system containing a nonionic surfactant Triton X-100, copper(II), 6,7-dihydroxy-4-methyl-2-phenylbenzopyrilium chloride (DHMPhB) and ammonium benzoate is observed immediately upon the sulfuric acid addition into solution. Under the optimal conditions (absorption band maximum was 540 nm, concentration 1.5?10-4 mol dm-3 of DHMPhB, 1.0 vol.% of Triton X-100, 2.0 cm3 of 0.75 mol dm-3 ammonium benzoate, and 1.0 cm3 of 0.5 mol dm-3 sulfuric acid solution for obtaining benzoic?benzoate buffer solution with pH 4.5 and initiation immediate surfactant rich phase formation) the calibration plot for spectrophotometric determination of copper(II) was linear in the range of copper(II) concentration 0.02?0.95 ?g cm?3. The limit of detection was calculated 0.006 ?g cm?3. The water samples were analyzed according to a suggested procedure with satisfactory results.

Abstract A cloud point extraction (CPE) procedure was presented for the preconcentration of silver, zinc, and lead ions in various samples. The complexes of these metal ions with 2-(((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methoxy)methyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (BIMMBI) are quantitatively extracted into the Triton X-114-rich phase after centrifugation. A solution of 1.0 M HNO3 in methanol was added to the surfactant-rich phase as the effective eluant before analysis by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. The influence of effective parameters such as the concentrations of BIMMBI, Triton X-114, and HNO3, pH, bath temperature, centrifuge rate, and time on method sensitivity and efficiency was optimized. Detection limits of 2.8, 1.7, and 1.1 ng/mL for Pb2+, Ag+, and Zn2+, respectively, along with a preconcentration factor of 30 and enrichment factors of 33, 48, and 53 for Pb2+, Ag+, and Zn2+, respectively, were obtained. The present CPE method is suitable for accurate and precise determination of trace amounts of analyte ions in complex matrixes. The proposed CPE procedure was applied to the determination of these ions in biological, natural water, wastewater, soil, and blood samples.

AbstractBrilliant green was used as a complexing agent in cloud point extraction (CPE) and applied for selective preconcentration of trace amounts of gold in geological matrices. The analyte in the initial aqueous solution was acidified with hydrochloric acid (0.1 M) and octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol (Triton X-114) was added as a surfactant. After phase separation, based on the cloud point separation of the mixture, the surfactant rich phase was diluted with methanol and the analyte determined in the surfactant rich phase by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). After optimization of the complexation and extraction conditions, a preconcentration factor of 31 was obtained for only 10 mL of sample. The analytical curve was linear in the range of 3–1000 ng mL−1 and the limit of detection was 1.5 ng mL−1. The proposed method was applied to the determination of gold in geological samples.

AbstractLiquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and cloud point extraction (CPE) of vanadium(V) ternary complexes with 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) and 2,3,5-triphenyl-2H-tetrazolum chloride (TTC) were investigated. The optimal conditions for vanadium extraction and spectrophotometric determination were identified. The composition (V : PAR : TTC) of the extracted species was 1 : 2 : 3 (optimal conditions; LLE), 2 : 2 : 2 (low reagents concentrations; LLE), 1 : 1 : 1 (short heating time; CPE), and 1 : 1 : 1 + 1 : 1 : 0 (optimal extraction conditions; CPE). LLE, performed in the presence of 1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N’,N’-tetraacetic acid and NH4F as masking agents, afforded the sensitive, selective, precise, and inexpensive spectrophotometric determination of vanadium. The absorption maximum, molar absorptivity, limit of detection, and linear working range were 559 nm, 1.95 × 105 dm3 mol−1 cm−1, 0.7 ng cm−3, and 2.2-510 ng cm−3, respectively. The procedure thus developed was applied to the analysis of drinking waters and steels. The relative standard deviations for V(V) determination were below 9.4 % (4-6 × 10−7 mass %; water samples) and 2.12 % (1-3 mass %; steel samples).
