Chelating resin from functionalization of chitosan with complexing agent 8-hydroxyquinoline:application for metal ions on line preconcentration system

摘要

This study describes the functionalization of biopolymer chitosan,using the complexing agent 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) by reaction of diazotization.The chelating resin was characterized by degree of deacetylation,infrared,Raman spectroscopy.The efficiency of the chelating resin and accuracy of the proposed method was evaluated by the metal ion recovery technique in the analysis of potable water,lake water,seawater and a certified sample of oyster tissue.The metal ions Cd(II) and Cu(II) in the samples were previously enriched in a minicolumn and flow injection flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FI-FAAS) determined the concentrations of the analytes.The chelating resin exhibited high selectivity for Cd(II) at pH 7 and for Cu(II) at pH 10.The eluent concentration was tested by the use of HNO_3 in concentrations of 0.1-3mol l~(-1) maximum response was obtained at 0.5mol l~(-1) for Cd(II) and Cu(II),with R.S.D.values of 0.4%.The analytes gave relative standard deviations (R.S.D.) of 1.5 and 0.7% for solutions of Cd(II) and Cu(II),respectively (n=7) containing 20mug l~(-1) of the metal ions,defining a high reproducibility.The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.1mug l~(-1) for Cd(II) and 0.4mug l~(-1) for Cu(II).The analytical properties of merit were obtained using the parameters previously optimized with preconcentration time of 90 s.The chelating resin showed chemical stability within a wide range of pH and the efficiency was not altered for the preconcentration of the metal ions during all the experiments.
