Solvent extraction, spectrophotometric determination of copper (II) from environmental samples using o-methylphenyl thiourea as a novel reagent

A simple and rapid method has been developed for solvent extraction and spectrophotometric determination of copper (II) using o-methylphenyl thiourea (OMPT) as a sensitive reagent. The basis of proposed method is formation of copper (II)-OMPT complex. Copper (II) was extracted with 0.020 mol L-1 OMPT in chloroform from aqueous solution in 0.075 mol L-1 potassium iodate. The absorbance of comple...

Experiment on Triangular Copper-Strip as Impedance Matching for 2

Performance of a helical antenna designed for 2.4-GHz WLAN is experimentally investigated in terms of impedance matching. A section of the helical wire near the antenna feed point is replaced by a simple triangular copper strip. By deploying such technique, impedance matching can be achieved. Overall return loss is below −14 dB across entire WLAN frequency range. Moreover, overall return loss d...

Extraction of Traces of Copper as Tetra-Butylammonium Tetrathiocyanato Copper (II) and Its Spectrophotometric Determination Using Eriochrome Black T

An extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of traces of copper (II) is described. The method is based on the quantitative extraction of copper as tetrabutylammonium tetrathiocyanato copper (II) into methyl isobutyl ketone, followed by spectrophotometric determination, using eriochrome black T as a metallochromic indicator. The red-violet mixed complex of copper absorbs at...

Selective and Efficient Solvent Extraction of Copper(II) Ions from Chloride Solutions by Oxime Extractants

Oxime extractants 3-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-5-methyl benzaldehyde oxime (HL1) and 3-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-5-methoxy benzaldehyde oxime (HL2) were synthesized and characterized by conventional spectroscopic methods. Suitable lipophilic nature of the prepared extractants allowed examining the ability of these molecules for extr...
