DETERMINATION OF CONCENTRATION AND EXTRACTION OF VANADYLPORPHYRIN COMPLEXES FROM OIL OF OIL-AND-GAS REGION «NORTH BUZACHI»

For the extraction of vanadylporphyrin complexes from oils of the oil-and-gas bearing region «North Buzachi» at 20 °C, N-N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) was used as an extractant, which shows a good isolating ability of porphyrin complexes into fractions with increasing the polarity. In the visible region the electronic spectra of metalporphyrin concentrates isolated from oil differ slightly and have two intense absorption bands at 573 nm and 534 nm, corresponding to vanadylporphyrin complexes, and at 550 nm, related to nickel porphyrins. According to the calculation method of graphical extrapolation, using the Lambert-Ber formula, content of nickel porphyrins in the extract is 11 times less than vanadylporphyrins. In the FT-IR spectra of porphyrinates, strong deformation vibrations of C-H-pyrrole fragments were detected in the absorption area 809.27 and 3024.79 cm-1, which indicate the presence of vanadium (IV) porphyrinate in the isolated fraction.
