A structural and thermodynamic study of the complexes of U(vi) with azinecarboxylates.

Abstract: Complexation of U(VI) with pyridazine-3-carboxylate (PDZ) and pyrazine-2-carboxylate (PAZ) was studied by spectrophotometry, potentiometry and microcalorimetry in 1.0 mol dm−3 NaClO4. Three complexes, [UO2L]+, UO2L2(aq) and [UO2L3]−, were identified and their stability constants (log β) and the corresponding formation enthalpies were determined. The thermodynamic parameters indicate that the formation of the three complexes is endothermic and driven exclusively by entropy. 1H and 13C-NMR data provide insight into the coordination modes of the complexes which corroborate with the thermodynamic data. Ligands chelate to U(VI) via κ2(N,O) coordination mode in complexes [UO2L]+ and UO2L2(aq). The crystal structures of four U(VI) complexes, [(UO2)(PAZ)2(H2O)]·H2O(I), [(UO2)(PDZ)2(H2O)](II), [(UO2)(PDZ)3Na2ClO4]·2H2O(III), and [(UO2)2(PDZ)4(H2O)2]·2H2O(IV), were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and compared with the U(VI) complex with picolinate (PA) (CH6N3)[UO2(PA)3] in the literature. The structure data suggest that the carboxylates coordinate with uranium in OC–O–U mode. The strengths of the U–O–C–C–N chelate cycles in the U(VI)/L complexes decrease with the trend of PA > PDZ > PAZ, which is in great agreement with the trend of thermodynamic parameters in aqueous solutions. It is interesting that in compound II two PDZ molecules coordinate with U(VI) in cis-planar positions via κ2(N,O) mode, but in other metal complexes of the three ligands having the same κ2(N,O) coordination mode the two ligand molecules are all in trans-arrangement. In the dimeric complex IV, one ligand coordinate with U(VI) in κ2(N,O) mode, while the other does it in μ2-L-κ2(O:O′) mode respectively.

Influence of a N-Heterocyclic Core on the Binding Capability of N,O-Hybrid Diamide Ligands toward Trivalent Lanthanides and Actinides.

Abstract: N,O-hybrid diamide ligands with N-heterocyclic skeletons are one of the promising extractants for the selective separation of actinides over lanthanides in a highly acidic HNO3 solution In this work, three hard-soft donor mixed diamide ligands, pyridine-2,6-diylbis(pyrrolidin-1-ylmethanone) (Pyr-PyDA), 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-diylbis(pyr-rolidine-1-ylmethanone) (Pyr-BPyDA), and (1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diyl)bis(pyrrolidin-1-ylmethanone) (Pyr-DAPhen), were synthesized and used to probe the influence of N-heterocyclic cores on the complexation and extraction behaviors with trivalent lanthanides and actinides 1H NMR titration experiments demonstrated that 1:1 metal-to-ligand complexes were mainly formed between the three ligands and lanthanides, but 1:2 type complexes were also formed between tridentate Pyr-PyDA and Lu(III) The stability constants (log β) of these three ligands with two typical lanthanides, Nd(III) and Eu(III), were determined through spectrophotometric titration It is found that Pyr-DAPhen formed the most stable complexes, while Pyr-PyDA formed the most unstable complexes with lanthanides, which coincided well with the following solvent extraction results The solid-state structures of 1:1 type complexes of these three ligands with La(III), Nd(III), and Er(III) in nitrate media were identified by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique Nd(III) and Er(III) were 10-coordinated with Pyr-PyDA, Pyr-BPyDA, and Pyr-DAPhen via one ligand molecule and three nitrate ions La(III), because of its larger ionic radius, was 11-coordinated with Pyr-DAPhen through one ligand molecule, three nitrate ions, and one methanol molecule Solvent extraction experiments showed that the preorganized phenanthroline-derived Pyr-DAPhen had the best extraction performance for trivalent actinide among the three ligands tested This work provides some experimental insights into the design of more efficient ligands for trivalent actinide separation by adjusting the N-heterocyclic cores

Complexation of U(VI) with BiPDA, DmBiPDA, and PhenDA: Comparison on Structures and Binding Strengths in Aqueous and DMSO/20%(v)H2O Solutions.

Abstract: The stability constants (log β) of 1:1 uranyl complexes with three N,O-mixed donor ligands (L = 2,2'-dipyridyl-6,6'-dicarboxylate, 3,3'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylate, and 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylate, denoted as BiPDA, DmBiPDA, and PhenDA, respectively) in aqueous and DMSO/20%(v)H2O solutions were determined by spectrophotometry in 0.1 M tetraethylammonium perchlorate. The effects of ligand preorganization, steric hindrance, and solvation on the binding strength of U(VI) with the three ligands were discussed. In aqueous solution, PhenDA forms stronger complexes with U(VI) than BiPDA due to its well-preorganized structure. In DMSO/20%(v)H2O solution, in contrast, the strong solvation effect of DMSO on the ligands reduces the energy gap between the trans- and cis-conformations of BiPDA, resulting in log β(UO2(BiPDA)) > log β(UO2(PhenDA)). The steric hindrance of methyl groups on DmBiPDA makes the complex UO2(DmBiPDA) of the lowest stability in both aqueous and DMSO/20%(v)H2O solutions. Single-crystal structural data of U(VI) complexes with the three ligands indicate that the ligand coordinates with UO22+ via aromatic nitrogen atoms and carboxylate oxygen atoms. There is no clear correlation between the trend of the stability constants in solutions and the U-N/O bond lengths of the three crystal complexes. Nevertheless, DmBiPDA coordinates to UO22+ in a high-strain fashion as a result of the steric hindrance of methyl groups while BiPDA in a low-strain fashion, which is in accordance with the relative complexation strength of the two respective complexes. The results from this work help us understand the effect of ligand preorganization and solvation on the binding strength of actinides with multidentate N,O-mixed ligands in solid and solutions, which is of importance in designing ligands for the partitioning of actinides from nuclear wastes.
