摘要
The substituent effect of sulfoxides in solvent extraction of palladium is investigated theoretically by using di-n-hexyl and diphenyl sulfoxide-palladium （Ⅱ） adducts as model complexes. RHF, DFT and two half-and-half functional （BHandHLYP and BHandH） methods have been applied in the geometry optimization, and BHandH method at the 6-31G^＊ level （Pd, 3-21G^＊） can give adequate accuracy for both free sulfoxides and their Pd （Ⅱ） complexes. As compared to diphenyl sulfoxide （DPSO）, the better affinity of di-n-hexyl sulfoxide （DHSO） towards Pd（Ⅱ） has been reasonably explained by a stronger electronic transfer, shorter Pd-S bond length and a larger binding energy in its Pd （Ⅱ） complex.
