Abstract

A series of triethylene glycol bis(alkyl phosphate)s HO(RO)P(O)(OCH2CH2)3OP(O)(OR)OH 4 (R = octyl (4a), 1-methylheptyl (4b), 2-ethylhexyl (4c), nonyl (4d), decyl (4e), dodecyl (4f), hexadecyl (4g), octadecyl (4h)) has been synthesized with the expectation that these compounds could be effective complexing and/or extraction agents for metal cations. The compounds were characterized by 31P NMR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy, MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis.

Keywords: Bis(phosphate); Bis(alkyl phosphate); Oligoethers; Polyethers; Phosphorylation; Phosphates; O-ligands; Extraction; Potentiometry.
