Oximes as spectrophotometric reagents—a review

Synthesis and chelation properties of Mannich polymers derived from piperazine and some hydroxy benzaldoximes

“…Oximes, C@N-OH, an important class of chelating agents [15], have found numerous applications as highly selective reagents for the separation and determination of a number of metal ions [15][16][17]. Hence, the incorporation of the oxime group in polymers is an attractive route to the preparation of selective chelating polymers.…”

A new vic-dioxime ligand containing two azo substituents and its mononuclear nickel(II), cobalt(II), and copper(II) complexes; synthesis, characterization, spectroscopic and biological studies

“…Oximes have been the subject of a great number of investigations and several reviews are available [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. The past decade has included studies on their syntheses and characterization [10,11], preparation of their mono-nuclear [12][13][14], homo- [15] and hetero-polynuclear [16,17], and polymeric metal complexes [18][19][20].…”

Chelation properties of poly(β‐diketone) polymer and its oxime toward heavy metal ions

“…The role played by toxic heavy metals in the aquatic environment has stimulated considerable activity and interest in the development of metal chelating polymers that found widespread use in the separation and monitoring of trace heavy metal ions, including lanthanides, from aqueous solutions 4–26. Moreover, the use of chelating polymers in radioactive nuclear waste treatment is attracting a great deal of interest.…”
