Abstract

A bisphosphonic acid type extraction reagent has been synthesised and employed to investigate the extraction behaviour towards rare-earth metals. The new reagent exhibited extremely high extraction ability for these ions. This ability was also accompanied by low leakage of extractant into the aqueous phase reflecting the reagent’s hydrophobic nature and the presence of partially undissociated phosphonic acid groups.
