Soft-donor dipicolinamide derivatives for selective actinide(iii)/lanthanide(iii) separation: the role of S- vs. O-donor sites

Abstract

Selectivity for An(III) vs. Ln(III) binding and extraction using dipicolinamide analogs containing the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O vs. C[double bond, length as m-dash]S groups was investigated in solution and the gas-phase, and by DFT calculations. The results show higher selectivity for complex formation and extraction for Am(III) vs. Eu(III) for the softer dithioamide vs. the diamide ligand, while in CH3CN the diamide binds more strongly than the thioamide to several Ln(III), forming 1 : 1 complexes.
