Competing Routes in the Extraction of Lanthanide Nitrates by 1,10-Phenanthroline-2,9-diamides: An Impact of Structure of Complexes on the Extraction
The fact of the fracture of the extraction curve of lanthanides by 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamides is explained in terms of the structure of complexes, solvent extraction data and quantum chemical calculations. The solvent extraction proceeds in two competing directions: in the form of neutral comp...

Summary: | The fact of the fracture of the extraction curve of lanthanides by 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamides is explained in terms of the structure of complexes, solvent extraction data and quantum chemical calculations. The solvent extraction proceeds in two competing directions: in the form of neutral complexes <b>L</b>Ln(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>3</sub> and in the form of tight ion pairs {[<b>L</b>Ln(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> H<sub>2</sub>O]<sup>+</sup> (NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>). |
