Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2773808A1] Compounds that are capable of trapping metal ions are: (a) Polyamines obtained by reaction of a diamine (1) with a crosslinking agent; (b) a mixture of such polyamines; and (c) a conjugate of two diamines or polyamines as described linked directly or through a succinic or glutaric anhydride residue. The diamine or mixture of diamines used to prepare the polyamines are of formula H2N-A-NR1 (1) A = 1-6C alkylene or alkylidene optionally substituted by one or more carboxyl groups, -(CH2)n-CO-, -CO-(CH2)n-, -(CH2)n-NH-(CH2)n-, or -(CH2)n-NH-(CH2)n-NH-(CH2)n-; n = 1 - 6; R1 = H, 1-6C alkyl optionally substituted by one or more carboxyl groups and/or an imidazolyl. The diamine may also be one prepared by polymerization of a molecule carrying an amine function and an aldehyde function protected by acetal formation, or by reduction of a polyamide. The conjugates of two diamines or polyamines are of formula X-Y-Zp X and Z = a diamine of formula (1) or a polyamine or mixture of polyamines as defined, or Z may also be a carrier molecule such as polylysine or bovine seric albumin; Y = a direct bond or a succinic or glutaric anhydride residue; p = 1 - 3 such that when X is a succinic or glutaric residue and X is (1), then A = alkylene, -(CH2)n-NH-(CH2)n-, or -(CH2)n-NH-(CH2)n-NH-(CH2)n-; and R1 = H, or A = -(CH2)2-CO- and R1 = (imidazol-5-yl)carboxymethyl. An Independent claim is included for a method of recovering metal ions from solution comprising contacting the solution of metal ions with a compounds as described to form a complex, passing the complex through a filtration means to retain or filter the complex, and recovering the metal ions by acid treatment of the retained or filtered complex.
