Coordination Chemistry of a Strongly-Donating Hydroxylamine
with Early Actinides: An Investigation of Redox Properties and Electronic
Structure
Posted on 2018-03-23 - 13:48
Separations of f-block
elements are a critical aspect of nuclear waste processing. Redox-based
separations offer promise, but challenges remain in stabilizing and
differentiating actinides in high oxidation states. The investigation
of new ligand types that provide thermodynamic stabilization to high-valent
actinides is essential for expanding their fundamental chemistry and
to elaborate new separation techniques and storage methods. We report
herein the preparation and characterization of Th and U complexes
of the pyridyl-hydroxylamine ligand, N-tert-butyl-N-(pyridin-2-yl)hydroxylamine (pyNO–). Electrochemical studies performed on the homoleptic complexes
[M(pyNO)4] (M = Th, U) revealed significant stabilization
of the U complex upon one-electron oxidation. The salt [U(pyNO)4]+ was isolated by chemical oxidation of [U(pyNO)4]; spectroscopic and computational data support assignment
as a UV cation.
