Synthesis and Preparation of Novel Magnetite Nanoparticles Containing Calix 4 arenes With Different Chelating Group Towards Uranium Anions

İngilizce (OpenAlex)

In this study, four new magnetite nanoparticle containing different chelating groups as ester, amide and azacrown moieties at the lower rim of calix[4]arenes were prepared by the reaction of formylated calix[4]arenes and amino propyl modified magnetite nanoparticles (APTMS-MN). All of the newly synthesized and prepared compounds were characterized by using different analytical techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). Furthermore, uranium binding abilities of newly prepared magnetite nanoparticles were evaluated by using solid-liquid phase extraction process and obtained results showed that magnetite nanoparticles containing picolinamide units exhibited superior and more efficient extraction percentage for uranium ions at lower pH values.
