Application of the zone melting technique to metal chelate systems-IV Concentration of metal-8-hydroxyquinoline chelates in 8-hydroxyquinoline.
The zone melting technique has been applied to 8-hydroxyquinoline containing trace amounts of various metal 8-hydroxyquinolates such as the nickel(II), cobalt(II), zinc(II) and copper(II) chelates. The metal chelate in each system was concentrated in the direction of zone travel. The highest concentrating effect was observed in the copper(II) chelate system. The concentration ratio, defined as the fraction of the metal chelate concentrated in the bottom 15% of the column, was determined after the 30th passage. A trace amount of copper ion extracted with a large excess of 8-hydroxyquinoline, was concentrated by means of the zone melting technique. The concentration ratio was 96%.
