Abstract
ABSTRACT Complexation of Pu(IV) and Th(IV) cations by the title ligands – hydrophilic sulfophenyl triazinyl derivatives of bis-triazinyl-pyridine and -bipyridine – was studied in solvent extraction systems containing a TODGA extractant and one of these hydrophilic ligands. Stoichiometries and stability constants of the complexes formed in an acidic (HNO3) aqueous phase have been determined. The Pu(IV) complexes are significantly stronger than their Th(IV) analogues. Only two complexes of each metal with SO3-Ph-BTP (1:1 and 1:2) have been detected, and only one (1:1) with SO3-Ph-BTBP; both numbers being less than expected based on the coordination numbers of the metal ions and on the denticities of the ligands. Possible reasons of this discrepancy are discussed.
