Abstract

The author describes the preparation of a magnetic metal organic framework of type MOF-199 containing magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles carrying covalently immobilized 4-(thiazolylazo) resorcinol (Fe3O4@TAR). This material is shown to represent a viable sorbent for separation and preconcentration of Cd(II), Pb(II), and Ni(II) ions. Box-Behnken design was applied to optimize the parameters affecting preconcentration. Following elution with 0.6 mol L−1 EDTA, the ions were quantified by FAAS. The capacity of the sorbent ranged between 185 and 210 mg g−1. The limits of detection are 0.15, 0.40, and 0.8 ng mL−1 for Cd(II), Ni(II), and Pb(II) ions, respectively. The relative standard deviations are <8.5 %. The method was successfully applied to the rapid extraction of trace amounts of these ions from sea food and agri food.
