Azacrown ether chitosan (CTSC) was synthesized by the reaction of chitosan with N ‐allyl benzo 15‐crown‐5 crown ether. Azacrown ether crosslinked chitosan (CCTSC) was prepared by the crosslinked reaction of CTSC and epichlorodydrin. Their structures were confirmed by infrared spectral analysis and X‐ray diffraction analysis. The adsorption properties of CTSC and CCTSC for metal ions were also investigated. The experimental results showed that the two chitosan derivatives not only had a good capacity to adsorb Pd 2+ and Ag + but also was highly selective for Pd 2+ and Ag + in the coexistence system containing other metal ions. At 20°C ± 1°C and pH = 4, the adsorption capacity of CTSC and CCTSC for Pd 2+ was 186.1 and 173.1 mg/g, respectively; and for Ag + was 90.2 and 56.5 mg/g, respectively. The selectivity coefficients were K Ag + /Ni 2+= 6.99, K Ag + /Cu 2+= ∞, K Pd 2+ /Pb 2+= 35.38, K Pd 2+ /Cu 2+= ∞ for CTSC and K Ag + /Ni 2+= 10.66, K Ag + /Cu 2+= ∞, K Pd 2+ /Pb 2+= 85.45, K Pd 2+ /Cu 2+= ∞ for CCTSC. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
