1 INTRODUCTION Tri-butyl phosphate (TBP) has been widely used for the extraction reagent in Th-U fuel to separate uranium from thorium. However di-butyl phosphate (DBP) and butyl phosphate (MBP), the radiolytic products of TBP, exhibit some coordinated ability to the fission elements, such as Zr and Nb. The physical and chemical properties of amides and caprolactam are similar to those of TBP, and they selectively extract U(VI) and Th(VI). The principal advantages of amides an…

X-ray,Thermal and Infrared Spectroscopic Studies on Potassium,Rubidium and Caesium Uranyl Oxalate Hydrates

M₂UO₂(C₂O₄)₂⋅nH₂O compounds (M=K, Rb and Cs)have been prepared and characterized by chemical and thermal analyses as well as by X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. X-ray powder data show that the compounds belong to an orthorhombic system. Thermal and infrared studies show that the compounds decompose to M₂UO₄ through the formation of alkali metal carbonate and UO₂ as intermediates. K₂UO₂(C₂O₄)₂⋅3H₂O, and Rb₂UO₂(C₂O₄)₂⋅2H₂O gave K₂UO₄, Rb₂UO₄ at 700 and 600°C respectively, while in the case of Cs₂UO₂(C₂O₄)₂⋅2H₂O, the intermediate products of decomposition reacted to yield Cs₂U₄O₁₃ at 1000°C. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

The extraction behavior of N,N′-diethyl-N,N′-dibenzenyl-urea (DEDBU) to Uranium(Ⅵ) and Thorium(Ⅳ) from nitric acid solution was studied by using xylene as diluent. The effects of aqueous HNO₃ concentration and ex-tractant concentration on the extraction distribution ratio of U(Ⅵ) and Th(Ⅳ) were studied, and the results show that the extraction behavior of the extractant to U(Ⅵ) is similar to tributyl phosphate (TBP), the solvation numbers for DEDBU and TBP are two, respectively. Under the experiment condition, the extractant does not show the extraction behavior to Th(Ⅳ), this result exhibits that the extractant has good application to separate U(Ⅵ) and Th(Ⅳ).

Abstract

Two new uranyl coordination compounds, [C₉H₁₇N₂]₃[(UO₂)₂(CrO₄)₂Cl₂(H₂O)₂]Cl·5H₂O (1) and (C₉H₁₇N₂)[(UO₂)(C₂O₄)Cl] (2), have been synthesized by adding potassium dichromate (K₂Cr₂O₇) or oxalic acid dihydrate (H₂C₂O₄·2H₂O) solution into an aqueous solution of uranyl nitrate and 1-butyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium chloride [Bmmim]Cl. [Bmmim]Cl provides the charge balance and Cl ions that coordinate with uranyl ions. The fundamental building units of 1 and 2 are UO₆Cl pentagonal bipyramidal structures. Compound 1 exhibits a graphene-like structure with a system molar ratio of 1:1 for U:Cr and crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca, with a = 25.644(3) Å, b = 12.996(14) Å and c = 29.198(4) Å. 16-Membered rings are formed by CrO₄^2? and UO₂²⁺ in the crystal structure of 1. Compound 2 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/n, with a = 10.759(3) Å, b = 11.395(3) Å, c = 14.149(4) Å, β = 102.962(9)° and shows one-dimensional (1D) serrated chains. Within the crystal structures of 1 and 2, C–H_[Bmmim]Cl?O hydrogen bonds are identified. O–H_water?Cl hydrogen bonds are also detected in the crystal structure for 1.

The X-ray structure of the trichlorocuprate of naphtho-15-crown-5 complexed potassium

The structure of the trichlorocuprate of naphtho-15-crown-5 complexed potassium has been determined by X-ray analysis. The crystal contains the complex cations [K(naphtho-15-crown-5)₂]⁺, the anion [Cu₂Cl₆]^2– and water molecules. The full composition of the compound in the solid state is represented by the formula [K(naphtho-15-crown-5)₂]₂[Cu₂Cl₆]·nH₂O), wheren3. The sandwich type cations are similar to those found previously for potassium complexes with benzo-15-crown-5. The coordination number of potassium is equal to 10; the coordination polyhedron is a 15-crown-5. The coordination number of potassium is equal to 10; the coordination polyhedron is a pentagonal antiprism. The water molecules are disordered and occupy six symmetrically independent positions with a probability of 0.5 in the crystal. The lack of close contacts between water molecules and the remaining components enabled the treatment of the complex as a clathrate. Supplementary Data relating to this article has been deposited with the British Library as Supplementary Publication No. 82154 (20 pages).

Predicting the redox properties of uranyl complexes using electronic structure calculations

A plethora of chemical reactions is redox driven processes. The conversion of toxic and highly soluble U(VI) complexes to nontoxic and insoluble U(IV) form are carried out through proton coupled electron transfer by iron containing cytochromes and mineral surfaces such as machinawite. This redox process takes place through the formation of U(V) species which is unstable and immediately undergo the disproportionation reaction. Thus, theoretical methods are extremely useful to understand the reduction process of U(VI) to U(V) species. We here have carried out the structures and reduction properties of several U(VI) to U(V) complexes using a variety of electronic structure methods. Due to the lack of experimental ionization energies for uranyl (UO₂(V)‐UO₂(VI)) couple, we have benchmarked the current and popularly used density functionals and cost effective ab initio methods against the experimental electron detachment energies of [UO₂F₄]^1‐/2‐ and [UO₂Cl₄]^1‐/2‐. We find that electron detachment energy of U(VI) predicted by RI‐MP2 level on the BP86 geometries correlate nicely with the experimental and CCSD(T) data. Based on our benchmark studies, we have predicted the structures and electron detachment energies of U(V) to U(VI) species for a series of uranium complexes at the RI‐MP2//BP86 level which are experimentally inaccessible till date. We find that the redox active molecular orbital is ligand centered for the oxidation of U(VI) species, where it is metal centered (primarily f‐orbital) for the oxidation of U(V) species. Finally, we have also calculated the detachment energies of a known uranyl [UO₂]¹⁺ complex whose X‐ray crystal structures of both oxidation states are available. The large bulky nature of the ligand stabilizing the uncommon U(V) species which cannot be routinely studied by present day CCSD(T) methods as the system size are more than 20–30 atoms. The success of our efficient computational strategy can be experimentally verified in the near future for the complex as the structures are stable in gas phase which can undergo oxidation.     

Calixarene Complexes of Anion-bridged Oligouranyl Species

The syntheses and structures of uranyl complexes of p-t-Bu-calix[6]arene (calix[6]H₆) and p-t-Bu-calix[9]arene (calix[9]H₉) are reported, further developing the role of calixarenes as 'cluster keepers'. The calix[6]arene complex, formulated as [(HO){UO₂(calix[6]H₄)(dmso)}₃H], is trinuclear and linked symmetrically by the hydroxyl O atom. The calix[9]arene complex is binuclear, with a carbonate atom bridging between the two uranyl cations to give the complex, (HNEt₃)₃[(OCO₂)(UO₂)₃(calix[9]H₄)].
