CONSTRUCTION OF TEMPLATE POLYMERIC LIGAND WITH 8-HYDROXY QUINOLINE

8-Hydroxy quinoline was coupled with half diazotized p-pheylene diamin e. Complexes of Cu2+, Ni2+, Zn2+, and Co2+ were prepared with the resu lting dye-ligand, The complexes were then covalently bound into a cros slinked polymer matrix based on styrene-acrylamide copolymer through t he ligand moiety. After removal of the metal ions from the polymer mat rix, the metal ion absorption capacities of the polymer bound ligands were measured. The procedure could induce some specificities with temp late effect. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
