Abstract

ABSTRACT Extraction of Am ( III), Pu( IV), U( VI) from nitric acid solutions by dialkyl ( aryl) [ dialkylcarbamoylmethyl] phosphine oxides of different structures has been studied. The nature of substituents at phosphorus and nitrogen atoms and in methylene bridge affects extraction capacity, solubility and selectivity of reagents. The increase in extraction capacity of reagents with respect to Am, U, Pu and decrease in solubility and selectivity at consecutive replacement of alkyl-( or alkoxy-) radicals at phosphorus atom by phenyl ones was found. The advantage of reagents usage with two different radicals one of which is phenyl at phosphorus atom has been shown. The nature of substituent at nitrogen atom affect solubility but does not practically affect extraction capacity of reagent.
