Abstract

The isotherms of adsorption of MeX2 (Me = Cu2+, Co2+; X = Cl, Br, ClO 4 ) by silica gel chemically modified with 2-mercaptoimidazole (SiMI) were studied in acetone and ethanol solutions, at 25 °C. Covalently attached 2-mercaptoimidazole molecule to silica gel surface adsorbs MeX2 from solvent by forming a surface complex. The metal is bonded to the surface through the nitrogen atom of attached 2-mercaptoimidazole. At low loading, the electronic and ESR spectral parameters indicated that the Cu2+ complexes are in a distorted-tetragonal symmetry field. The d-d electronic transition spectra showed that for Cu(ClO4)2 complex, the peak of absorption did not change for any degree of metal loading and for Cl and Br complexes, the peak maxima shifted to higher energy with lower metal loading. The CoX2(X = Cl, Br, ClO 4 ) analogues possess a distorted-tetrahedral field.
