Magnesium isotope separation was investigated by chemical ion exchange with the 1-aza-12-crown-4 bonded Merrifield peptide resin using an elution chromatographic technique. The capacity of the novel azacrown ion exchanger was 1.0 meq/g dry resin. The heavier isotopes of magnesium were enriched in the resin phase, while the lighter isotopes were enriched in the solution phase. The single stage separation factor was determined according to the method of Glueckauf from the elution curve and isotopic assys. The separation factors of $^{24}Mg^{2+}$-$^{25}Mg^{2+}$, $^{24}Mg^{2+}$-$^{26}Mg^{2+}$, and $^{25}Mg^{2+}$-$^{26}Mg^{2+}$ were 1.008, 1.019, and 1.006, respectively.

Tetraazamacrocyclic ion-exchangers, 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane bonded Merrifield peptide resin(TDM), 1,4,8,12-tetraazacyclopentadecane bonded Merrifield peptide resin(TPM) were prepared, and the ion-exchange capacity of these TDM and TPM were characterized. The distribution coefficients in various conc. of NH4Cl for magnesium with ion exchangers were determined by using the batch method. We found the isotope separation factors on new prepared tetraazamacrocyclic ion-exchangers bonded Merrifield peptide resin(TDM, TPM). The isotope separation of magnesium was determined by using of breakthrough method of column chromatography.
