“螺吡喃-冠醚”分子探针可视化高效提锂机制研究

Lithium is an important energy strategic metal, which plays an important role in national defense and energy development. The extraction of lithium from salt lake brine is an important supply channel of lithium resources. However, it is difficult to utilize the lithium from the salt lake brine which is a multi-salt coexistence system with high ionic strength. In view of the properties of the complexing ability of spiropyran compounds with metal ions and the properties of light activated open or closed-loop of spiropyran, as well as the visualization advantage of optical probe, the "spiropyran-crown ether" optical probe with specific recognition for lithium ion will be constructed by modifying the spiropyran molecule with 12-crown -4-ether or 14-crown-4. The visible capture and release of lithium ion can be realized by controlling the open-loop or closed-loop of spiropyran. In this project, the relationship between the structures of the "spiropyran-crown ether" functional organic molecule and the complexing abilities with lithium will be studied. The UV-Visible spectroscopy and the fluorescent spectroscopy will be used to study the visual capture and release properties of lithium by regulating the open-loop or closed-loop of spiropyran with light. On the basis of this, a highly stable "spiropyran-crown ether" membrane material will be established, which will be applied to selectively extract trace lithium visually from salt lake brine with high ionic strength. The project attempts to use optical probe to the capture and separation of lithium ion of optical inert, and the separation process is visualized and highly efficient. It also provides insight for the efficient extraction of other rare metal ions.
