Synergistic solvent extraction represents a successful way to control efficacy and selectivity of metal separation. Supramolecular chemistry offers interesting approaches to the design of novel synergistic systems1 based on molecular recognition and self-assembly processes. We have employed a series of bis(3-alkoxy-2-hydroxy-aryl)diimine ligands for solvent extraction studies with selected 3d- and 4f-metal ions. The experiments showed a significant synergistic enhancement of Yb(III) in presence of Zn(II) and n-octanoic acid. This effect is obviously caused by the formation of a heterodinuclear Zn(II)/Yb(III) complex. The architecture obtained and the extraction behaviour will be discussed in detail together with the factors influencing the process.
