Abstract
In order to obtain new complexes of Fe(III) with multiple uses, their characteristics, important applications and also the obtaining conditions are studied. The obtaining conditions consist in mixing solutions of the same concentrations of ligand 2 amino-6methoxy-benzothiazole sulphonic acid.1-naphtol-4-sulphonic acid with FeCl3. The solutions are mixed in molar ratios of 1:1, 2:1 and 3:1 (ligand to central metallic atom). For determining the molar ratio ligand:central metallic atom, the methods applied were: pH-metry, conductometry, UV-VIS spectrophotometry. Also, the stability constants for new obtained compounds were determined using Molar Ratio method (J.H.Yoe and A.L.Jones), Continuous Variation method (Job) and Harvay-Manning method. The stability of the new obtained compounds is studied by varying the pH of its solution. The values are K1 = 2.56 106 L/mol for FeL1; K2 = 19.76 1013 L/mol for Fe L2 and K3 = 30.03 1032 L/mol for Fe L3. The higher value for stability is assigned to the compound with molar ratio 3:1 (ligand: metal) in the 1.5 6.5 pH range. The maxim value for the absorbance was measured at .max= 601 nm for FeL1, .max= 601 nm for FeL2 and respective .max= 600 nm for FeL3. The studied complexes are very stable in the above-mentioned pH range and could be used for spectrophotometric determination of Fe(III) in visible domain. Another practical importance is represented by wastewater treatments by membranar separation. Thus, the separation process is improved by increasing the volume of these complexes in comparison with both ligand and Fe(III) and further the iron recovery by calcinations was accomplished.
