ABSTRACT Four aryl substituted hydroxamic acids were prepared: N-phenyl-N-p- bromobenzohydroxamic acid, N-phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid, p-melhyl-N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P-rnethyl-N-phenyl-N- o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid by the reaction of [3-phenylhydroxylamine and p-methyl-P phenylhydroxylamine with the corresponding acid chloride. The acids were identified by their melting points, elemental analysis (nitrogen and bromine contents), infrared and ultraviolet absorption in chloroform, as well as reactions towards acidic solutions of vanadium (V) and iron (III) to give violet and blood- red coloured complexes in the chloroform layer respectively. The extractability of these acids towards chromium (VI), molybdenum (VI), iron (III), vanadium (V), copper (II) and cobalt (II) was investigated . N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid has a maximum extraction for chromium (VI) 96.00 % at IM H2SO4, molybdenum (VI) 87.00 % at pH 1, iron (III) 73.90% at pH 4, vanadium (V) 93.00% at pH 1, cobalt (II) 83.10 at pH 8 and copper (II) 93.80% at pH 6. N-phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid has a maximum extraction for chromium (VI) 97.00% at IM H2SO4, molybdenum (VI) 92.70% at pH 1, iron (III) 71.20% at pi I 4, vanadium (V) 90.00% at pH 1, cobalt (II) 54.70% at pH 7 and copper (II) 86.50% at pH 5. P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid has a maximum extraction for chromium (VI) 98.70% at IM H2SO4, molybdenum (VI) 74.00% at pH 1, iron (III) 69.60% at pH 5, vanadium (V) 76.00% at pH 1, cobalt (II) 51.20% at pi I 8 and copper (II) 82.20% at pH 5. P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid has a maximum extraction for chromium (VI) 51.00% at IM H2SO4, molybdenum (VI) 84.70% at pi 1 I , iron (III) 66.00% at pH 4, vanadium (V) 88.00% at pH 1, cobalt (II) 50.00% at pi I 7 and copper (II) 78.6% at pH 6.

Twenty four of hydroxamic acids complexes of Cr ( VI), Mo (VI), V (V), Fe (III), Co (II) and Cu (II) were prepared by the reaction of these acids with the six metals at different medium. The ratio of the metal to ligand was determined by the continuous variation method and elemental analysis of these complexes. The ratios of Cr (VI), Mo (VI), V(V), Fe (III), Co (II) and Cu (II) were found as follows: 1:2 , 1 : 2, 1 : 1, 1 : I, 1:2 and 1 : 2 respectively. CONTENTS

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Analytical Chemistry : Jt means the resolution of chemical compounds into its ultimate parts. It can be thought of as comprising two branches, qualitative analysis which deals with finding what constituents are in an analytical sample and quantitative analysis which deals with the determination of how much a given substance is in the sample." 1.2. Methods of Analysis : The various methods of determination an analyte can be classified as: 1.2.1. Chemical Methods: These are mainly applied to the classical methods of analysis such as gravimetric analysis and volumetric or titrimetric analysis . The use of chemical methods has decreased sharply with the advent of physicochemical methods . 1.2.2. Physicochemical Methods: These are instrumental methods of analysis.They are more sensitive and selective than classical chemical methods.4"5 Physicochemical methods can be grouped as follows : (i) Optical methods: Based on the optical properties of the substance analysed, such as , photometry , refractometry and polarimetry. (ii) electrochemical methods: These include potentiometry, voltametry and conductivity. (iii) Physical methods: In which various physical properties of the substances are utilized, such as, thermal analysis, x-ray and mass spectrometric analysis. Most instrumental methods are based instrument which register a signal due to physical property of the solution. Spectrophotometer measures the fraction of electromagnetic radiation from a light source which is absorbed by the sample. Like gravimetric analysis , however an instrumental technique may include a seperation step. The most important of these methods of separation are, chromatography , ion exchange and extraction . (i) Chromatography: Gas chromatography , involves a seperation based on the interaction of solute gases with liquid or solid stationary phases, followed by measurement ofthe separated gases by a detector'. Other types of chromatography include adsorption chromatography (T.L.C) and fluid partition chromatography (L.C) (ii) Ion Exchange Method: This is particularly well suited for the seperation of inorganic ions both cations and anions . It has also proved to be extremely useful for the seperation of amino acids. Moore and Stein ", have successfully seperated up to 50 amino acids and related compounds on a single Dowex-50 cation exchange column by a pH control. The most important applications of ion exchange methods are seen in analytical seperation and the deionization of water", (iii) Extraction: Extraction is a widely used technique for the seperation, isolation and purification of substances . 1.3. Solvent Extraction: Solvent extraction involves the distribution of a solute between two immiscible liquid phases. This technique is extremely useful for very rapid and clean separation of both organic and inorganic substances, this is one advantage over the precipitation method . 1.3.1 Theories of Solvent Extraction: 1.3.1.1. Distribution Law: It was first elaborated by Nernest l5 in 1891 it states that (A solute will distribute between two essentially immiscible solvents in such a manner that at equilibrium the ratio of the concentrations of the solute in the two phases at a particular temperature will be constant, provided the solute has the same molecular weight in each phase). A solute S will distribute itself between two practically immiscible phases, the ratio of the concentrations of the solute in the two phases will be constant .

(1)

Where KD is the distribution coefficient and the subscripts represent solvent 1 (an organic solvent ) and solvent 2 (an aqueous layer ). If the distribution coefficient is large, the solute will tend toward quantitative distribution in solvent 1. Many substances are partially ionized in the aqueous layer, this introduces a pH effect on the extraction. If we consider the extraction of benzoic acid from an aqueous solution.

Benzoic acid (HBZ ) is a weak acid in water with ionization constant Ka given by :

Ka = [1 f]a [BZ']a (2)

[HBZ], The distribution coefficient is given by:

[HBZ]e (3)

[HBZ]£

Where : e represents the ether solvent . a represents the aqueous solvent. However, part of benzoic acid in the aqueous layer will exist as BZ" .depending on the magnitude of Ka and the pH of the aqueous layer, hence, quantitative seperation may not be achieved. 1.3.1.2. The Distribution Ratio: Disteribution ratio is the ratio of the concentration of all the species of the solute in each phase which is the most important factor in the analytical

1X 'i separation . In the above example: iIsS given by : A

[HBZ] e D = (4)

[ HBZ] a + [ BZ-]a

a relationship can be derive between D and KD . The acidity constant Ka for the ionization of the acid in the aqueous phase is given by: T [H ]a [BZ-]

[ MBZ]a hence:

Ka [MBZ]a

[BZ"]a = (5)

a from equation (3)

[IIBZ1L.= KD [ HBZ]a (6) by substitution of equation (5) and (6) into equation (4) gives.

KD[HBZ]a (7)

+ [HBZ]a + Ka[HBZ)a/[H ]a

KD (8) D -

l+Ka/[If]a

+ When [H ]a » Ka, D is nearly equal to KD.

If [H']a « Ka then D reduces to :

KD [ H'L D = Equation 8 like equation 1 predicts that the extraction efficiency will be independent of the original concentration of the solute."This is one of the attractive features of solvent extraction. 1.3.1.3. The percent Extraction: (Recovery) : The fraction of solute extracted is equal to the amount of the solute in the organic layer divided by the total amount of the solute . Thus the percent of extraction is given by:

[S]0V0 xlOO% (9) %E =

[S]o Vo + [S]a Va

dividing by [S]a Vo the percent extracted can be expressed in term of distribution ratio:

100 D (10) %E =

D + Va/V0 in the special case when the volumes of the two phases are equal then equation 10 tends to

100D (11) %E = D+ 1 Quantitative extraction is obtained when D is greater than 1000. The percent extracted changes only from 99.5 to 99.9 when D is doubled from 500 to 1000.

1.3.1.4 Successive Extraction : Equation 10 shows that the fraction extracted can be increased by decreasing the ratio of Va/Vo , as increasing the organic phase volume. However a more efficient way of increasing the amount extracted using the same volume of organic solvent is to perform successive extraction with smaller portions of

20 organic solvent . With a D of 10 and Va/V0 = 1 ,% E is about 91 % .But decreasing Va/ Voto 0.5 (doubling Vo), %E will increase to 95% . By performing two successive extractions with Va/ Vo = 1, overall % E is 99%. 1.3.2 Solvent Extraction of Metals:

One of the most important applications of solvent extraction is the seperation of metal cations""1. Metal ions do not tend to dissolve appreciably in the organic layer. For them to become soluble their charges must be neutralized . There are two principal ways of doing this" : 1.3.2.1 Ion Association Complexes : The metal ion associates with another ion of great size (organic - like ), as in iron (III) can be quantitatively extracted from hydrochloric acid medium into diethyl ether { ( C2 H5)2 O: H\ FeCl4 [ C2H5)2O]\ }. Similarly, the uranyl ion

UO2~' is extracted from aqueous nitrate solution into isobutanol by association 2r with two nitrate ions, (UO2 , 2NO"3) 1.3.2.2 Metal Chelates: This is the most widely used method of extracting metal ions and form a chelate molecule with an organic chelating agent which contains two or more complexing groups, many of these reagents form coloured chelates with metal ions and form the basis of spectrophotometric methods for determination of the metals" ' 1.3.2.3 Extraction Process: The ionizable proton in the chelating agent is displaced by the metal ion when the chelate is formed, and the charge on the organic compound neutralized the charge on the metal ion as in diphenylthiocarbazone (dithizone) which forms a chelate with lead ion. pb/2

Green Red Extraction process consists of four equilibrium steps : Aqueous phase H" +R" 11

n+ (HR)a nR' + M ^(MRn)a 11

(HR)0 (MRn)0 Organic Phase. First step, the chelating HR distributes between the two phases:

(HR)0 ^±(HR)a distribution coefficient of the reagent = KDHR = [HR]0 (12)

[HR]a Second, the reagent in the aqueous phase ionizes HR ^H+ + R"

Third , the metal ion chelates combinde with the anion to form uncharged molecule (chelate): M"+ + nR" ^

The formation constant = Kf= [ MRn] (14)

Finaly , the chelate distributes between the two phases:

(MRn)aq ^

The distribution coefficient of the chelate = KDMRn = [MRn] 0 (15)

[MR ] n a

9 Assuming that the chelate portion of the metal distributes largely into the organic phase and that the chelate is essentially undissociated in the non polar organic solvent, the distribution ratio D is given by:

D =

+ [Mn ]a

By substituting the appropriate equilibrium concentrations from equation (12) through (15) into equation (16) the following equation can be derived.

n n n KDMRn KrK a [HRJ Or K. [HR] Or (17) D= =

n + n K DHR [U ]\ [H+] aq From equation 17 , the distribution ratio is independent of the concentration of the metal ion, and affected only by changing the reagent concentration or by

21 changing the pH . TJv* more stable the chelate (the large the kf) the greater the extraction efficiency ,e "But chelate stability decreases as the reagent acidity increases. From equation 17, if reagent concentration remains virtually constant then:

n D =K*+[H+] a ([8)

n Where K = K [HR] or and the percentage of solute extracted (E) is given by:

10 logE.log(lOO-E) = logD

= logK* + npH (19) Where n is the charge of the metal. The distribution of the metal in a given system is a function of the pH alone.

If pH,/2 is defined as the pH value at 50% extraction (E% = 50), from equation (19).

pH1/2= -1/nlogK* (20)

if the difference in pH,,2 of two metals values are far apart then excellent seperation can be achieved. The pH|,2 values may be altered by the use of masking agent/Thus in seperation of mercury and copper by extraction with dithizone in carbon- tetrachloride at pH 2, the addition of EDTA forms a water- soluble complex which completely masks the copper but does not affect the mercury extraction . 1.3.2.4. The Seperation Efficiency of Metal Chelates: The seperation factor, p, is equal to the ratio of the distribution ratios of the two metal chelates formed with a given reagent* mis can be predicted from equation 17, since only Kf and KDMRn will be a function of the metal then:

D, Kf(-l)KDRMn(l) (21) ft = =

D2 Kf(2)KDRMn(2) The specifity of extraction may affected by the solublities of the chelates and steric hinderance, as 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) forms a chelate with many metals including aluminum" . But 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline will not form a complex because the added methyl group does not allow the molecule to group around this ion. Addition of masking agents will increase the selectivity of extraction. EDTA and cyanide ion are commonly used as masking agents . Thus,

+ although Cu~* forms a more stable complex with oxine than VO2 Adoes, the vanadium may be extracted in the presence of copper by the addition of EDTA,

2 2 which forms an even more stable complex with the copper (Cu-EDTA ") . 1.4 Analytical Seperations : One of the most important applications of solvent extraction is the spectrophotometric determination of metals in the visible region. Many organic reagents form coloured chelates with metals, but most of the chelates are insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents and can easily be extracted.. Solvent extraction is widely employed in drug analysis " . 1.4.1. Multiple Batch Extraction: Quantitative extraction is efficiently carried out by performing multiple extraction with smaller portions of the same volume of the two phases , it is useful for calculations with multiple extractions to compute the fraction- of analyte remaining unextracted after a given number of extractions". Division of equation

(10) by 100 gives the fraction extracted [ D / (D+Va / Vo)]? substraction of this from 1 gives the fraction F remaining unextracted.

F=l-D/[D+Va/Vol (22)

12 which can be rearranged to

F= Va/DV0+Va (23)

1.5 Orgainc Reagents in Analytical Chemistry: Organic reagents have considerable sensitivity and selectivity towards metal ions that why they play important role in chemical analysis" . Many metal ions can be seperated alter reaction with an organic reagent, the metal ions are generally held in ring configuration and the precipitates formed are of high molecular weight, stable to drying, coloured and insoluble in water, but soluble in non-polar solvents The binding of an organic reagent by a metal form organometallic compound, and the groups bound to the centre ion are called ligands27"28. 1.6 Some Applications of Organic Reagents in Analytical Chemistry: 1.6.1. Gravimetric Analysis: There are a large number of organic compounds that are very useful in precipitating metal ions" . Organic precipitating reagents have the advantages of giving precipitates with ' very low solublity in water and a favourable gravimetric factor30. Dimethylglycoxime is the one of most selective organic reagent for Ni ~,pd ", pt*~ and BTJ ionsJ . Also 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) precipitates many metals , but useful for Al (III) and Mg (II).. Organic reagents are generally weak acids , so the number of elements precipitated and the selectivity can be regulated by the adjustment of the pH. 1.6.2 Complexing Reagents: Most of organic agents are chelating reagents that form slightly soluble, uncharged chelates with the metal ions . The complex formed is called a chelate ". The formation of these complexes serves as the basis of accurate and convenient titrations for metal ions, by the use of appropriate masking agents and pH control. Many metal ions form complexes in solution with a variety of substanes that have a pair of unshared electrons as on N,0 and S Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is a useful reagent for compleximetric titrations for the determination of metal ions such as zinc , magnesium, calcium, lead and stannous. EDTA is represented by the symbol H4Y.

It is a tetraportic acid and the hydrogens in H4Y refer to the four jonizable hydrogens on the four carboxyl groups, and the unprotonated Y " forms complexes with so many metal ions'. 1.6.3 Colourimetric Analysis: Many organic reagents form coloured chelates, with metals . Examples of reagents used in colourimetric analysis are dimethylglucoxime, dithiazone, 8-hydroxyquinaline and N-phenylbenzohydroxamic acid " . When the ligand bound to the metal at one point this is a monodentate ligand , and is said to be bidentate when the ligand has two donor atoms as in the hydroxamic acids and the complex formation takes place with the replacement of the hydroxylamine hydrogen by the metal ion and ring closure through the carbon oxygen "J . 1.7 llydroxamic Acids: Hydroxamic acids are important chelating agents, towards a very O OH great number of metal ions . They have bidentate functional group (-C - N -), that fulfils the basic requirements of complex formation with metal ions and , therefore , form an important family of chelating reagents. Hydroxamic acids have many applications in_analytical chemistry, ! \ specially in spectropholometry, gravimetry and titrimetry,They also have useful application in medicine . and biology . Several of them have been used as drugs , and for the solvent extraction in determination of metals. 1.7.1 Structure of Hydroxamic Acids: Hydroxamicjpds may be regarded as derivatives of both hydroxylamine and carboxylic acids.lhey exist in the two tautomeric forms, keto(l) and enol (11) form45'

16 H-N-OH tautomeric N - OH

\ II I II \ R-C = O R- C-OH

(1) (11) Keto form becomes the more stable form due to hydrogen bonding, it contains one easily replaceable proton (monobasic acid), while enol form dissociates two protons (dibasic acid). The keto form predominates in acidic solution, while the enol is the dominant form in alkaline medium4 . Hydroxamic acids have the general formula:

O OH R-C-N-R Where R and R could be hydrogen, alkyl or aryl groups. They have been classified as primary (III), secondary (IV) or cyclic (V).

1.7.2 Preparation of Hydroxamic Acids: Several methods for preparation of hydroxamic acids have been described by Yale5 . They were first prepared from carboxylic acid via their methyl or ethyl or anhydride by reaction with hydroxylamine in alcohol or alkali 3"° . Other methods, although satisfactory in certain instances, have limited applications: (a) The reaction between an and hydroxylamine.

They can be also prepared by the reaction of hydroxylamine with isothiocyanate l. 1.7.3. Properties of Hydroxamic^cids: Generally , hydroxamic acids are white solids 62, except iodosubstituted and cinnamo- which are light pink and light yellow respectively . They are inoluble in water, sparingly soluble in carbon tetrachloride and cold benzene, but readily soluble in hot benzene ,diethyl esther, dioxane, chloroform and ethanol. They have lower melting points. 1.7.4 Defection of Hydroxamic Acids: The most characteristic reaction of hydroxamic acids is the red violet colouration develops with ferric ion in acid media . Agrawal 65 reported a method which based on two assumptions, that all hydroxamic acids are soluble in chloroform and that the violet complex with all

20 the hydroxamic acids formed with vanadium (V) can be extracted into chloroform, this method failed to detect certain hydroxamic acids in which the complexes are insoluble in chloroform . 1.7 5 Acidity of Hydroxamic Acids: The acidity of hydroxamic acids arises due to the presence of hydroxyl group which causes intramolecular hydrogen bonding as shown by infrared studies .

CO Exner and Kack reported that the proton bound to the nitrogen atom in the hydroxamic acid is and acidic proton, and ionization gives rise to the anions. O O _ O~ R-d-NHOH —> R-£-N -OH <-> R-C^N-OH + H+ It was reported that two anions are formed in essentially equal concentrations as in equilibrium below :

21 70 Agrawal and Tandon have measured the ionization constants (pKa) often N- arylhydroxamic acids in aqueous media at different temperature.

The Pka value decreases when the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen is replaced by a phenyl group (-1 effect),so the lone pair of electrons of the nitrogen resonating with the six n -electrons of benzene ring attached to it, this make , the nitrogen election diffident centre and the proton will liberate easily. pKa values of hydroxamic acids are influenced by introduction of groups having either - ve or

+ve I effect and substituents in N-phenyl ring, that why the pKa value of phenylacetohydroxamic acid (VI11) is 10.071, and decrease when the hydrogen is replaced by a phenyl group , e.g N -2-diphenylacetohydroxamic acid (IX) is 9.80 .

(VI11) (IX)

pKa values of hydroxamic acids derived from amino acids (R-CH (NH2) CONHOH) determined by pH-metric titration , the values are in line with the basicity of the corresponding amino acids ". The most simple aminohydroxamic acid can liberate two protons, one from amino group and other from hydroxamic acid group and these acids have complicated acid -base properties, some conclued that the NH+ group is more acidic ,73 while others have taken the opposite view.53

According to measurement of pKa values thiohydroxamic acids are found to be stronger acids than the corresponding oxygen compound and hyroxamic acids are stronger acids than phenol35. The infrared spectra of hydroxamic acids show the most characteristic bands associated with the hydroxamic acid functional groups those due to the (O- H),(O0)- (N-O) and (C-N) stretching vibrations, these frequencies are generally aiTOiind 3200, 1600, 910 , and 1385 cm"1 respectively74. Coutts and Elizabeth75 have observed that the position and intensity of the carbonyl and the hydroxyl infrared absorption bands vary considerably from one hydroxamic acid to another . An intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded absorbs infrared radiation at a lower frequency than the corresponding intermolecularly hydrogen-bonded carbonyl group . In addition, when hydrogen- bonding is intramolecular, the O-H stretching band is usually broad, where as a sharp hydroxyl absorption is obtained when hydrogen bonding is intermolecular.

Earlier data in hydroxamic acids has indicated that the O-H stretching of the free unassociated hydroxyl group of-N-O-H is very strong band in the region 3 195-3170cm"1, the O-H stretching vibration of the hydroxyl group which is engaged in hydrogen bonding with the carbonyl group is found as a weak to strong on the low frequency side of the main O-H band in the region 2910 - 2850 cm"1' Similarly the O-H deformation vibration is found to be in the region 1100-1000 cm" as strong sharp band. Further all three bands disappear upon coordinateion with a metal ion, this interpreted as evidence that the ligands co-ordinate through hydroxyl oxygen, and that on co-ordination of the acid the hydroxyl proton is replaced by the metal ion . In the case of salicyiohydroxamic acid SHA the spectra is some what complicated due to the presence of additional phenolic O-H group . So the frequency assignments are not straight forward. C = O [ v (C-O)] vibration in SHA in the region 1700-1400cm"' this low frequency indicates both conjugation and hydrogen bonding .

23 Babat and Black have shown that the carbonyl absorption frequencies of cyclic hydroxamic acid (X) are lower than those of the corresponding lactams (XI) probably because of more effective intramolecular hydrogen bonding in the former one.

Ultra-violet spectra for aryl hydroxamic acids and their N-and O- substituted derivatives show a large wavelength absorption (220-260 nm)

O 1 associated with the aryl ring Other spectral analysis are used to elucidate the structure of hydroxamic acids, for example x-ray diffraction ", nuclear magnetic resonance83, electron spin resonance 84 and mass spectra. 1.8 Some Applications of Hydroxamic Acids: 1.8.1. Gravimetric Determination: Hydroxamic acids having a phenyl group attached to the side chain have been found to be useful reagents for gravimetric estimation of metals, like copper(ll), nickel (11), cadmium (11), cobalt (11), mangenese (11), titanium (IV), zirconium (IV), iron (111), vanadium (V), uranium (VI), niobium (V) and tantalum (V) this due to their insolubility in aqueous media69. o c N-phenylbenzohydroxamic acid used by Sinha to separate cobalt and nickel from copper by adjusting the pH. Moshier and Schwarberg used the same reagent to separate tantalum (V) from other metal ions . Also tin in brass sample was precipitated from acidic medium by N-phenylbenzohydroxamic

24 ft "7 acid . Thorium and cerium were precipitated gravimetrically by the same reagent o o at pH 5 and pi I 7 respectively . Agrawal and Roshania used N-p-chlorocinnamohydroxamic acid to separate and determine beryllium , magnesium, calcium , and barium by using masking agents and adjusting pH. Afew hydroxamic acids have been found to serve as suitable indicators in the compleximetric titration of ferric ion with EDTA69. 1.8.2 Hydroxamic Acid Resins: Hydroxamic acids resins have attracted attention as analytical reagents, owing to their good complexing behavior with a broad range of metal ions . Initial attemps to prepare a poly (hydroxamic acid) chelating exchange resin involved the conversion of conventional weak cation exchangers to acid chlorides followed by reaction with hydroxylamine91"92. Kern and Schultz93 converted a linear poly (methylmethacrylate) to a poly (hydroxamic acid), (PHA), with 80 % efficiency and found that Fe (111), Cu (11), Ag (1), Zn (U),Hg (11), Al (111) and Pb (11) gave precipitates with the polymeric ligand. Schonteden converted poly (acrylonitrile) to PHA by reaction with hydroxylamine in dimethylformamide . Vernon and Eccles 3 prepared a cross-linked PHA ion exchanger by polymerising an acrylonitrile-divinylbenzene mixture , subjecting the resulting granular polymer to hydrolysis in 50 % sulphuric acid and reacting the polyamide produced with hydroxylamine solution . Several resins applications were studied, particularly the use of PHA in extracting trace metals from sea-water. Veron and Kyffin used this resin to separate Fe (111), Cu (11) and U (VI). An advantage of the PHA resin is that it is 97 prepared from low cost materials and the kinetic properties not varying .

2.1) 1.8.3 Spectrophotometric Determinations: Hydroxamic acids are among the most selective and sensitive reagents for the spectrophotometric determination of several metal ions.Then intense colouration given by many metal ions with hydroxamic acids makes the latter often useful as colourimetric reagents69. The most characteristic reaction of the hydroxamic acid is red-violet colouration develops with ferric ion in acid medium 98 below PM2 and the orange complexes which develop gradually above pH 3 Vanadium reacts with certain hydroxamic acids specially with those having another functional group attached to the side chain yielding complexes with different colours at different pH. Wise and Brandt" extracted 97% of V (V) by benzohydroxamic acid in 1-hexanol at pH2. Among twenty seven N- arylhydroxamic acids studied, N-phenylcinnamohydroxamic acid was found to be the most sensitive reagent for determination of V (V) spectrophotometrically N-m-chlorophenylcinnamohydroxamic acid was found to be another sensitive reagent for determination of V(V), which extracted from 4M to 7M hydrochloric acid by 0.1% (w/v) chloroform solution of the reagent 10 . Gupta and Tandon l02 developed a method to determine V (V) by the use of highly selective and specific N-m-tolyl-p-methoxy benzohydroxamic acid. N-p-chlorophenyl-2- naphthohydroxamic acid was used to determine V (V) in trace quantities in sample of various origin including determination in blood103. The colour of vanadium complexes of some hydroxamic acids develops slowly like N-phenylphenoxyaceto and N-p-chlorophenoxyacetohydroxamic acids, that means acids, are unsuitable as extractive reagents for V (V). Some nitrosLibstituted hydroxamic acids which are coloured, are unsuitable for colourimelric determination of V (V).

26 Vanadium hydroxamic acid complexes were found to be very stable and back extracting with nitric acid and oxalic acid failed to strip the vanadium. Sulphuric acid can strip after a long time of shaking but will destroy the tigand. Chloroform is the most suitable solvent for the extraction of V (V) because the colour of chloroform extract is found to be stable up to five days and is not affected by temperature, while the extraction is very poor and the violet colour disappeasr within 5-10 minutes when amyl alcohol and n-butylalcohol are used. The interference due to various ions in the determination of V(V) was studied with N-p-chlorophenyl 2-naphthohydroxamic acid l04 32.5 fig cm"1 of vanadium in 15 cm of aqueous solution may be determined in presence of Ba , Ca" Cc\~ , Cu~ , Zn" , FeJ^ and Ni"7 each in the amount' of 30 mg. The interference due to Ti (V), Mo (VI) and Zn (IV) in the same quantity (30 mg) is eliminated by adding sodium fluoride and ammonium oxalate before extraction. Another interference can be due strong reducing agent that convert the V(V) to

Uranium (VI) and benzohydroxamic acid was developed for spectropholometric determination by Meloan, the colour of complex is dependent, on pll . Versatohydroxamic acid used by Abdalla for extraction of Mo (VI) V(V) Cu (11), Ni (11) Mn (II) , Zn (11) and U (VI) at different concentration from synthetic sea-water. Karrarl06used the same reagent in xylene to determine V(V). Agrawal used N-phenylcinnamohydroxamic acid to determine Cd (11) as yellow complex in chloroform at pH 9.5. Fe (111), Cu (II) and Ni (11) have been extracted with benzohydroxamic acid which gives the most effective iron copper separation from nickel . There are many factors affecting the extractability of-the hydroxamic acids including, the pll of the medium " , the alkyl substituted and the donor atom

27 1.8.3.1 Stripping : It is the removal of the extracted solute from the organic phase . If the organic solvent is very volatile (diethyl ether) the simplest way is to add small volume of water and evaporate the solvent continuously on a water-bath; when the extraction solvent is non-volatile stripping is performed by shaking gently with an aqueous solution of acid or base .

3- DISCUSSION

3.1 Preparation Preparation and properties of four bromosubstituted arylhydroxamic acids were described. N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and N-phenyl-N-o- bromobenzohydroxamic acid were prepared by coupling of p-bromobenzoyl chloride and o-bromobenzoyl chloride with freshly prepared -P-phenyl liydroxylamine respectively. P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P-methyl-N- phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid were prepared by coupling p- bromobenzoyl chloride and o-bromobenzoyl chloride with freshly prepared p- methyl-p-phenyl hydroxylamine respectively. The acid chlorides were prepared by re fluxing the corresponding, carboxylic acid with excess redistilled thionyl chloride to avoid acid anhydride formation, and thionyl chloride was distilled off on water bath after completion of the reaction. The coupling took place under the cold ether process which is favoured over the aqueous process due to the relative purity of products obtained. The use of sodium hydrogen carbonate in the coupling reaction is to keep the coupling medium slightly alkaline, also it serves to neutralize hydrochloric acid evolved through out the reaction. The high yield of the substituted hydroxamic acids (70-72%) can be attributed to the ortho- and para-substituents which exert steric hinderance effect that decreases the tendency to form di-derivatives.

137 All bromosubstituted hydroxamic acids prepared are white crystalline solids. They are sparingly soluble in water but readily soluble in benzene, dioxane, diethylether and chloroform. 3.2 Identification and Characterization: The acids prepared were characterized by their reactions toward acidic vanadium (V) and iron (III) solutions which give a deep-violet and blood-red colour respectively in the chloroform extract. The melting points were also determined. 3.2.1 Elemental Analysis: Elemental analysis done for the ligands prepared agreed quite well with the calculated theoretical values. 3.2.2. Infrared Spectra: Vibrational frequences of hydroxamic acids arise from the characteristic functional groups such as C = 0 , 0 - H, C - N and N - O as in Table (4)". The four hydroxamic acids prepared show several bands in the region of 4000 - 200 cm" as in appendices A,Bi C and D. The present data on hydroxamic acids has indicated that the O - H stretching of the free , unassociated hydroxyl group of the -N -OH moiety is found as a strong to weak broad band in the region 3260-3100 cm"1 The lower shift of O - H is due to the intramolecular hydrogen bonding of the type OH ... O = C ", and the lower frequencies of C = O , C -N and N - O groups of the bromosubstituted acids showed slight shift from that of the parent acid , this may be attributed to the electronic effects exerted by the substituents at ortho and para-positions. Bromosubstituents showed smaller change in

I 1 7 1 I 8 ) frequenceis than chloro substituents ' , this beccause bromine has a lower electronegativity than chlorine .

138 Ortho-bromosubstituted hydroxamic acids show very broad - OH spectra this because bromine in ortho position may be engage in intramolecular hydrogen bonding with hydrogen of O -H group, this enhances -OH spectra and completely disappear. 3.2.3 Ultra - violet Spectra: Generally hydroxamic acids show , one , two or three absorption maximum bands. These bands indicate the contribution structure of hydroxamic acids which exist in two forms keto and enol A. As shown in Table (5) and appendices II,F, G and H the ultra-violet spectra of the four hydroxamic acids reveal two absorption maxima y A,max" when dissolved in chloroform , one for benzene ring and the other for the carbonyl n -n* transition. An electron withdrawing bromo-group in the ortho position bromosubstiluted displaces the higher wave length of 280 nm to 260 nm for aryl ring. 3.3. Extraction: The four hydroxamic acids prepared form coloured chelate complexes with a number of metal ions (Table 46). These acids in chloroform, react with Cr(VI) Mo (VI), Fe (III), V(V), Co (II) and Cu (II) to give golden yelloow, colourless, blood-red, reddish - violet, light- pink and green complexes respectively. The extraction of metal ions with the ligands prepared was affected with: (i) Electron withdrawing bromo-group attached to the benzene ring, (ii) Electron donating methyl-group in para position . The increase in the extraction of these metal ions when extracted with N- phenyl-N-P-bromobenzohydroxamic acid . and N-phenyl-N-o-

139 bromobenzohydroxamic acid attributed to the elecrtonegativity of the bromine atom attached to the hydroxamic acid which have a large effect on the acidity of the ligand. On the other hand introduction of methyl group causes the decrease in the extraction of metal ions this is due to +1 inductive effect of the methyl group which decreases the acidity of the ligand because the increasing of electron density on O -H axis and the proton will not be liberated freely. In general , the acidity of the hydroxamic acids may be attributed essentially to the -OH group, since stablization of the negative charge on the oxygen atom in the hydroxamate ion is possible only through induction effect . The greater the acidity of the metal chelates of o- and p-bromosubstituted hydroxamic acids are generally more stable than those of p-methyl -bromosubstituted parent compounds. (i) Chromium (VI) : Chromium (VI) was extracted in acidic medium with N-phenyl-N-p- bromobenzohydroxamic acid , N-phenyl N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid, P- methyl-N-phenyl-N-P-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P-methyl -N-phenyl-N- o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid with percentage recovery of 96.00%, 97.00%

,49.00% and 98.7% atlM H,SO4 respectively ( Table 11) and 70.00%, 56.50% , 5 1.70% and 45.00% at pH 1 respectively . It is observed that the maximum extraction takes place in acidic medium and decreased sharply with the increase of pH. The pMi/2 values (Fig. 3) for Cr (VI) with N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid ,N-pheny-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-p- bromobenzohydroxamic acid are 2 , 1.9 and 1.8 respectively where the percent

40 extraction value of Cr(VI) with P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid is lower than 50%. Chromium(VI) was stripped with a high percentage recovery of 100% with 0.5M sodium hydroxide solution.

(ii) Molybdenum (VI): Table (16) shows the percent extraction of Mo (VI). The maximum extraction of Mo (VI) with N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid, N-phenyl-N-o- bromobenzohydroxamic acid, P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid are 87.00% , 92.70%, 74.20% and 84.70% at pH 1 respectively. The different results recorded are due to methyl group effect at the para position which decreased the acidity of the molecule and stability of the complex. Molybdenum (VI) was almost completely extracted by aliphatic hydroxamic acids , ' ' while this percentage recovery decreased when bromosubstituted hydroxamic acids were used, such as hydroxamic acids reported in this work. Mo (VI) can be stripped completely under the medium used 0.5 M NaOH. (iii) Iron (III): 9 Fe (111) was extracted very low in acidic medium and at low pH with all hydroxamic acid prepared . Table (23) shows the percent extractions of Fe (III) with N-phenyl-N-p- bromobenzohydroxamic acid, N-phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid,P- methyl-N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid, P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-o- bromobenzohydroxamic these are 73.90% at pH 4, 71.2% at pH 4, 69.50% at pH 5 and 66.60% at pi I 4 respectively. The introduction of methyl group decreases the percentage of maximum extraction . The extractions are fully stripped under the

141 medium used (2MH?SO4) this may attributed to the weak complexing ability of Fe (III) with these acids. The pM|/9 values (Fig 8) for Fe (III) with the above four hydroxamic acids are 2,2.5,3 and 2.5 in the same respective order. (iv) Vanadium (v): Vanadium (V) extraction is very high in acidic medium or at low pH with all hydroxamic acids prepared in this work. Table (29) shows the percent extractions of V (V) with the four hydroxamic acids. The maximum extraction of vanadium (V) at pH 1 with N-phenyl-N-p- bromobenzohydroxamic acid.N-phenyl -N-o-bromobenohydroxamic acid and P- melhyl-N-phenyl-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P- methyl -N-phenyl-o- bromobenzohydroxamic acid these are 93.00% 90.00, 76.00% and 88.00% respectively. Also introduction of methyl group lowers the percentage recovery. The stripping of V(V) complexes can not be achieved with 0.5 NaOH. The extractionsof vanadium (V) are not fully stripped under the medium used (0.5 Na F), the maximum stripping reaches as high as 32%. This-attributed to the high stability of the complex of VF5 which have a bridged infinite polymer.

142 But there is evidence from vibrational spectra for the presence of VF5

The pH|/2 values (Fig 11) for V(V) with the above four hydroxamic acids are 5.5, 3.8, 2 mid 4.5 in the same respective order. (v) Cobalt (II): .-c^ Cobalt (II) extraction is very low at low pR'with all hydroxamic acids !; .7 prepared,;!the percent extractions increase with increase pH and precipitated at .' j high pi I. Table (35) shows the maximum percent extractions of Co (II) with N-phenyl N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid . N-phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid, P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P-methyl N-phenyl-N- o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid these are 83.16% at pH 8, 54.70% at pH 7, 51.20% at pH 8 and 50.00% at pH 7 respectively. The pH1/2 values (Fig. 13) with the above four hydroxamic acids are 6.5, 6.5, 7.5 and 6.5 respectively. The extractions of Co (II) are fully stripped under the medium used

(2MH2SO4). (vi) Copper (II): The percent extractions of Cu (II) are very low at low pH and increase with increase of pH and precipitated at high pH. Table (14) shows the maximum percentage extractions of Cu (II) with N- phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid,-N-pheny-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid,P-methyl-N-phenyl-N-p-bromobenzohydroxamic acid and P-methyl-N- phenyl-N-o-bromobenzohydroxamic acid are 93.80 at pH 6, 86.50% atpH5,

83.20% at pH 5 and 78.6% at pH 6 respectively. The pH,/2 values (Fig. 15) with the above four hydroxamic acids are 4.5, 4,4 and 3 respectively. ^

143 The extractions of Cu (II) are fully stripped under the medium used

MH2SO4 ). As reported in Tables ( 6-41) and (figures 1-15). The distribution ratios of r (VI), Mo (VI) and V(V) at pi I 1 are much greater than the distribution ratios t>f

./ . • u (II) and Co (II), therefore any one of Cr (VI), Mo (VI) and V(V) can be eparated from Cu (II) and Co (II) at pi I 1. While Cr (VI), Mo (VI) and V(V) aterfere with each other at pi I 1.

The distribution ratio of Fe (III) at pi I 3 and pi I 4 are much greater than the istribution ratios of Cr (VI), Cu (II) and Co (II), therefore Fe (III) can be eparated from these metals. Fe (III) , Mo (VI) and V (V) interfere at pH 3 and annot be separated .

At pi I 7 the distribution ratios of Cu (II) and Co (II) are much greater than the istribution ratios of Cr (VI) , Mo (VI), V(V) and Fe (IH)Jfherefore at the same

H Cu (II) and Co (II) can be separated from any one of these metals , while Cu

IF) and Co (II) can interfere at pi 1 7 and cannot be separated.

From above , six metals studied can be separated from each other by

Dntrolling the pi 1. These findings are expected to be useful in metallurgy studies articularly in the separation of metals.

,4. Complxes of Hydroxamic Acids:

The study of the various metallic complexes with the four hydroxamic acids repared (Table 42-47) has revealed the fact that the hydroxamic acids usually act sa bidenlate ligands.

The reactions of Cr (VI), Mo (VI) Fe (III), V (V), Cu (II) and Co (II) with all lese hydroxamic acids give complexes formed by different molar ratios of gands and metal ions at optimum pll. This stiochiometric ratio confirmed by lemental analysis and molecular weight determination.

H-1 Cr (V) ;at 1M \H2SO4 have been found to give a composition of I Cr: 2 acid? ilrile Mo (VI) gives the same ratio at pllI. Iron (III) forms complexes of 1:1 metal /ligand ratio at pi I 4 and 5.

Vanadium (V) complexes are of the same trend as iron (III) complexes at pHl. hi (II) and Co (II) from complexes of 1 : 2 melal/ligand ratio at pH (6,7 and 8). 1.5. Continuous Variation Method: This method is rapid ami simple for determining the formula of a jompound (Table 48-66) and figures (16-35). The ligand forms I : 2 complexes s/ith Cr (VI), Cu (II) and Co (II), and forms 1 : 1 complexes with Fe (III) and

This work can be further investigated by X-ray and mass spectra to support }he conclusions reported.
