	%X The environmental pollution by heavy metals became 
more problematic nowadays. To solve the problem of Cadmium 
accumulation in human organs which lead to dangerous effects on 
human health, and to determine its concentration, the organic legand 
1-phenyl-3-benzoyl-2-thiourea was used to extract the cadmium ions 
from its solution. This legand as one of thiourea derivatives was 
successfully synthesized. The legand was characterized by NMR and 
CHN elemental analysis, and used to extract the cadmium from its 
solutions by formation of a stable complex at neutral pH. The 
complex was characterized by elemental analysis and melting point. 
The concentrations of cadmium ions before and after the extraction 
were determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). 
The data show the percentage of the extract was more than 98.7% of 
the concentration of cadmium used in the study
