Crown ethers are very useful for metal ion recognition due to their nanocavity based specific ion selectivity, which on functionalization with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be employed as specific metal ion filters by exploiting their different interactions with metal ions.

The capacity of synthesized zeolites from Brazilian coal ash for the removal of metal ions from aqueous solutions has been investigated. Equilibrium data obtained have been found to fit both the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The zeolitic material prepared with coal ash from baghouse filter showed the highest removal efficiencies. The metal ion selectivity of this product was determined as: Pb2+ > Cd2+ > Cu2+ > Zn2+ > Ni2+. The maximum cation exchange capacities were between 32.9 and 246.9 mg g-1. Tests showed that the zeolitic material was suitable for removal of zinc from electroplating effluent.

Density functional calculations have been performed on four-coordinate kojate complexes of selected divalent metal ions in order to determine the affinity of the metal ions for the kojate ion. The complexation reactions are characterized by high energies, showing that they are highly exothermic. It is found that Ni(II) exhibits the highest affinity for the kojate ion, and this is attributed to the largest amount of charge transfer from the ligand to the metal ion. The Ni(II) complex has distorted square planar structure. The HOMOs and LUMOs of the complexes are also discussed. All complexes display a strong band at ~1500 cm−1 corresponding to the stretching frequency of the weakened carbonyl bond. Comparison of the complexation energies for the two steps shows that most of the complexation energy is realized in the first step. The energy released in the second step is about one-third that of the first step.
