Physico-chemical methods investigated complexing Fe (II, III), Co (II) and Ni (II) with di mer kap tophenols (2,6-dimerkaptophenol, 2,6-dimercapto- 4-methylphenol, 2,6-dimercapto-4-ethy l phenol, 2,6-dimercapto-4-propylphenol and 2,6-dimercapto-4-tert-butylphenol), and hyd rophobic amines. The hydrophobic amine were used as heterocyclic diamine- 1,10-phenan thro line, 2,2’-bipyridyl and 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (batofenantrolin). The optimal conditions for the formation and extraction mixedligand complexes and set the ratio of the components in the complexes.
