F. Cerda et al., ELECTROLYTIC FORMATION OF TECHNETIUM COMPLEXES WITH PI-ACCEPTOR LIGANDS, Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 186(4), 1994, pp. 291-301
Electrolytic reduction of pertechnetate was performed in aqueous solut
ion containing pi-acceptor ligands. Cyanide and 1,10-phenanthroline we
re the selected ligands. In both cases, electrolyses produced a cathod
ic TcO2 deposit and soluble Tc complexes. When cyanide was the ligand,
the complexes formed were [Tc(CN)6]5- and [TcO2(CN)4]3-. When working
with the amine, [Tc(phen)3]2+ and another positively charged species
were found after reaction. Results are compared with previous studies
with amines, and the usefulness of the electrolytic route to obtain Tc
complexes is evaluated.
