Preferential Precipitation and Selective Separation of Rh(III) from Pd(II) and Pt(IV) Using 4-Alkylanilines as Precipitants.


ABSTRACT: Rhodium (Rh) is the most expensive platinum group metal (PGM) and is of great industrial importance. Although the recycling of PGMs from secondary sources is in high demand, the preferential and selective separation of Rh from PGM mixtures remains a great challenge. Here, a selective Rh separation method involving the precipitation of Rh from an HCl solution containing palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt), and Rh is reported. 4-Butylaniline and 4-hexylaniline were used as precipitants for Rh, and selective Rh precipitation was achieved at high HCl concentrations. We revealed that Rh in HCl selectively forms a unique and highly stable ion-pair complex comprising [RhCl6]3-/anilinium/chloride ions in a 1:6:3 ratio. The formation and high stability of the Rh complex were found to play important roles in the selective recovery of Rh from PGM mixtures.
