Organophosphate compounds are widely used in industrial hydrometallurgical processes asextractants and complexones of non-ferrous, noble, rare-earth metals and transuranic elements. Among thesecompounds, organic phosphates occupy a special place, as they allow for the extraction processes with goodselectivity and efficiency. However, a significant drawback of known organic phosphates is their low extractioncapacity, as well as rather good solubility in water and their hydrolysability in aqueous acidic solutions, whichleads to both loss of the extractant and contamination of the extracted metal with organophosphorus compounds.Therefore, the search and development of new uranium effective extractants is an important task for thedevelopment of modern hydrometallurgical processes.This report describes the successful use of availablebis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)(2-cyanoethyl)phosphate, which is easily obtained from bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)chlorophosphate and 3-hydroxypropanonitrile in the pyridine/diethyl ether system as an extractant of uraniumfrom uranium-containing acid solutions. For this functional phosphate containing a cyano group, one shouldexpect a synergistic effect of the extraction properties of the phosphates themselves, as well as of the knownextractants - contribute to an increase in its incombustibility.The purpose of this research is to develop the optimalconditions for the scaled synthesis of bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)(2-cyanoethyl)phosphate, to accumulate its enlargedbatch and to study the extraction properties in the production process of uranium extraction from uranium-containingsulfate and nitric acid solutions.The research results showed that bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)(2-cyanoethyl) phosphate,easily obtained from the available bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) chlorophosphate and 3-hydroxypropanonitrile in thepyridine/diethyl ether system, exhibits pronounced extraction properties with respect to uranium. Thus, the use ofthis extractant in the production of the extraction of uranium from uranium-containing nitric acid or sulfuric acidsolutions was 20.7% and 18.7%; the content of uranium in the extractant was 63.9 g/dm3and 49. 7 g/dm3,respectively.Positive results were also obtained when studying the synergistic properties of the new extractant andthe traditional - bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate. Using a mixture of these extractants (their weight ratio was 1:1.2)allows you to extract 57% of uranium from the uranium sulphate solution. This is 9% more than in a similar processusing only bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate as an extractant. The use of bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)(2-cyanoethyl) phosphateas a new extractant makes it possible to extract up to 20.7% of uranium from technological nitrate or sulphate ofuranium-containing solutions. With the combined use of bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)(2-cyanoethyl) phosphate and theknown extractant bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate in this process, a synergistic effect is observed, which increases theefficiency of uranium extraction and improves the technological indicators of extraction.The extractantbis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)(2-cyanoethyl) phosphate works more efficiently in nitric acid solutions than in sulphate
