This work explores chelating capabilities of 1-butyl-2-diphenylphosphino-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BDPPIMPF 6) as a task-specific ionic liquid (TSIL) for metal extraction/preconcentration procedures. To this end, metal extraction by BDPPIMPF 6 for 21 elements (Ag, Al, As, Au, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ir, Mn, Ni, Pb, Pd, Pt, Re, Rh, Ru, Sc, Ti, V, and Zn) were evaluated. This TSIL specifically forms chelating complexes with several elements of Group 10 (Pd and Pt) and Group 11 (Ag and Cu) of the Periodic Table. Chelating capabilities of BDPPIMPF 6 has been exploited for developing a novel methodology for the simultaneous determination of Ag, Cu, Pd, and Pt by means of dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry detection (DLLME-ICP-OES). This methodology afforded enrichment factors of 14 to 70 and limits of detection (LoD) of 0.2–2 μg L−1 for Ag, Cu, Pd and Pt. These LoD values were between 110 and 35-fold lower than those obtained by direct analyses with ICP-OES (i.e., no DLLME treatment). Finally, the proposed method has been applied to the analysis of Ag, Cu, Pd, and Pt in water and pharmaceutical products. Irrespective of matrix characteristics, quantitative recoveries were found for all the elements investigated thus highlighting methodology robustness. [Display omitted] • BDPPIMPF 6 shows a great affinity for Pd and Pt (Group 10) and Ag and Cu (Group 11). • Extraction of the different elements is mainly controlled by solution pH. • A new TSIL-DLLME-based methodology has been developed with ICP-OES detection. • TSIL has been successfully applied in the analysis of water and drug samples.
