| Abstract: | ABSTRACT The design and synthesis of polymer-supported reagents that can selectively complex targeted metal ions from multi-component solutions will continue to be an important area of research into the 21st century. Environmental remediation and sensor technology are only two of a number of areas in which such polymers can be applied. This paper reviews the recent literature with an emphasis on the key ligands that have been immobilized in order to better understand where this research is heading in the near future. |
