• Poly [dibenzo-18-crown-6]

A selective and effective chromatographic separation method for thorium(IV) has been developed by using poly [dibenzo-18-crown-6] as stationary phase. The separations are carried out from glycine medium. The sorption of thorium(IV) was quantitative from 1 x 10(-2) to 1 x 10(-4) M glycine. The elution of thorium(IV) was quantitative with 2.0-8.0 M HCl, 4.0-7.0 M HBr, 1.0-2.0 M HClO4 and 5.0 M H2SO4. The capacity of poly [dibenzo-18-crown-6] for thorium(IV) was found to be 0.215 +/- A 0.01 mmol/g of crown polymer. The effect of concentration of glycine, metal ion, foreign ion and eluents has been studied. Thorium(IV) was separated from a number of cations in ternary as well as in multicomponent mixtures. The applicability of the proposed method was checked for the determination of thorium(IV) in real as well as geological sample. The method is simple, rapid, and selective with good reproducibility (approximately +/- 2 %).
