Em. Bond et al., COORDINATION CHEMISTRY AND EXTRACTION PROPERTIES OF PHOSPHONOPYRIDYL N,P OXIDES, Journal of alloys and compounds, 271, 1998, pp. 172-175
The coordination chemistry of nylphosphinomethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine-N,N'
,P,P-tetra oxide with Eu(NO,), is described. The ligand forms a 2:1 co
mplex in which both ligands bind in a tetradentate fashion to the meta
l. The liquid-liquid extraction of Am(III) in HNO3, solutions by the l
igand in CHCl3, is also outlined. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.
