Abstract

The extraction of microquantities of U(VI), Th(IV), and lanthanides(III) from nitric acid solutions with CMPO-functionalized ionic liquid 1-[3[[(diphenylphosphinyl)acetyl]amino]propyl]-3-tetradecyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium hexafluorophosphate, CMPO-FIL(I) in molecular organic diluents has been studied. The effect of HNO3 concentration in the aqueous phase and that of extractant concentration in the organic phase on the extraction of metal ions is considered. The stoichiometry of the extracted complexes was determined. CMPO-FIL(I) demonstrates greater extraction ability towards Ln(III) than its neutral CMPO analog, diphenylphosphorylacetic acid N-nonylamide. This inner synergistic effect increases with a decreasing organic diluent polarity. The partition of CMPO-FIL(I) between the equilibrium organic and aqueous phases is the dominant factor governing the extractability of Ln(III) ions in the extraction system.
