Abstract
The ligands, derived from the combination of phenanthroline and various five-membered N-heterocyclic rings, were subject to a comprehensive investigation for their potential in the extraction and separation of actinides and lanthanides. This study employed DFT methods to thoroughly explore the properties of both phenanthroline (Ph) and the diverse five-membered N-heterocyclic rings (R1-R8). Additionally, tridentate ligands RlPh (l = 1-8) and tetradentate ligands RlPhRr (l, r = 1-8) were analyzed in detail, encompassing their electrostatic potential (ESP), protonation energy, coordination bonding with the metals Am(III) and Eu(III), and the thermodynamics of extraction separation for Am(III) and Eu(III). The findings highlight that the electrostatic potential (ESP) and binding capabilities of the five-membered N-heterocyclic ring units serve as effective predictors for the properties of intricate tridentate and tetradentate ligands, as well as their coordination bonding affinity with metals. The ligands' binding energy is closely associated with their ESP, and notably, the binding energy of tridentate and tetradentate ligands correlates well with the binding energies of their constituent structural units. The computational results reveal that the R2 unit, along with its corresponding tridentate ligand R2Ph and tetradentate ligands R2PhRr, exhibits the highest ESP, superior binding energies, and the strongest coordination bonding affinity with the metals. The theoretical calculations further identify several promising extractants for the effective separation of Am(III) and Eu(III). The tridentate ligands R1Ph, R7Ph, and R4Ph, and the tetradentate ligands R4PhR4, R6PhR6, R2PhR2, R1PhR5 and R3PhR6 were identified as having excellent separation performance for Am(III) and Eu(III). This study would provide insights for the design of extractants for the separation of Am(III) and Eu(III) by use of five-membered N-heterocyclic rings as structural units.

Abstract
The effect of frustrated Lewis donors on metal selectivity between actinides and lanthanides was studied using a series of novel organic ligands. Structures and thermodynamic energies were predicted in the gas phase, in water, and in butanol using 9-coordinate, explicitly solvated (H2O) Eu, Gd, Am, and Cm in the +III oxidation state as reactants in the formation of complexes with 2-(6-[1,2,4]-triazin-3-yl-pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indole (Core 1), 3-[6-(2H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridin-2-yl]-1,2,4-triazine (Core 2), and several derivatives. These complexations were studied using density functional theory (DFT) incorporating scalar relativistic effects on the actinides and lanthanides using a small core pseudopotential and corresponding basis set. A self-consistent reaction field approach was used to model the effect of water and butanol as solvents. Coordination preferences and metal selectivity are predicted for each ligand. Several ligands are predicted to have a high degree of selectivity, particularly when a low ionization potential in the ligand permits charge transfer to Eu(III), reducing it to Eu(II) and creating a half-filled f7 shell. Reasonable separation is predicted between Cm(III) and Gd(III) with Core 1 ligands, possibly due to ligand donor frustration. This separation is largely absent from Core 2 ligands, which are predicted to lose their frustration due to proton transfer from the 2N to the 3N position of the pyrazole component of the ligands via tautomerization.

Abstract
Phenanthroline-diamide ligands have been reported in the selective separation of actinides over Eu(III); on the contrary, relevant basic coordination chemistry studies are still limited, and extraction under actual application conditions is rarely involved. In this work, N,N'-diethyl-N,N'-ditolyl-2,9-diamide-1,10-phenanthroline [Et-Tol-DAPhen (L)] was applied to explore the coordination performance of lanthanides in simulative high-level liquid waste. For the first time, cascade countercurrent extraction was conducted with Et-Tol-DAPhen as the extractant, which reveals the periodic tendency of the extraction efficiency of lanthanides to decrease gradually as the atomic number increases. Comparison of elements with similar radii verifies the hypothesis that the increase in the atomic number leads to a decrease in the ionic radius, thus reducing the coordination and extraction capacity of ligands. Slope analysis, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and ultraviolet-visible titration results show that the ligand forms 1:1 and 1:2 complexes with lanthanides and the coordination ability follows the tendency of extraction efficiency, and the first crystal structures of Lns(III) with a phenanthroline-diamide ligand, i.e., [LaL(NO3)3(H2O)] and [LaL2(NO3)2][(NO3)], were obtained, which confirms the conclusions described above. This work promises to enhance our comprehension of the chemical properties of Lns(III) and offer new clues for the design and synthesis of novel separation ligands.

Abstract
There is a huge demand for the highly selective separation of HNO3 and HCl in many industries, and solvent extraction is considered a feasible method. In this article, DFT calculations were performed to investigate the interactions between acids and extractants including alcohols, ketones, phosphorus, and amines. One of the significant findings to emerge from this study is that amines bind to acids through ion association. Nevertheless, the interaction between acids and alcohols, ketones, and phosphorus with a (RO)3P═O structure is mainly dominated by hydrogen bonds. The change of Gibbs free energy in the extraction process shows that the phosphorus ((RO)3P═O) is superior to other types of extractants in the selective separation of HNO3 and HCl. Furthermore, after the alkoxyl group (RO-) in phosphorus ((RO)3P═O) is replaced by RN- or R- with less electronegativity, the interaction between HCl and the substituted extractants transitions from a hydrogen bond to ion association, but there are still strong hydrogen bonds between them and HNO3. That will lead to a decrease in the selectivity of phosphorus due to the change in interaction types. This new understanding should help the design and screening of efficient extractants for the separation of mineral acids.

Abstract
The title compound, C25H25N9O9·C16H36N+·H2PO4 - (I) or (C25H25N9O9)·(n-Bu4N+)·(H2PO4 -) (systematic name: 3-(4-nitro-phen-yl)-1,1-bis-{2-[3-(4-nitro-phen-yl)ureido]eth-yl}urea tetra-butyl-ammonium di-hydrogen phosphate), comprises a tris-urea receptor (R), a di-hydrogen phosphate anion and a tetra-n-butyl-ammonium cation. It crystallizes with two independent formula units in the asymmetric unit. The conformations of the two tris-urea receptors are stabilized by N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O intra-molecular hydrogen bonds. Each di-hydrogen phosphate anion has two O-H⋯O inter-molecular hydrogen-bonding inter-actions with the other di-hydrogen phosphate anion. Inversion-related di-anion units are linked by further O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a chain propagating along the a-axis direction. Each di-hydrogen phosphate anion makes a total of four N-H⋯O(H2PO4 -) hydrogen bonds with two ureido subunits from two different tris-urea receptors, hence each tris-urea receptor provides the two ureido subunits for the encapsulation of the H2PO4 - hydrogen-bonded chain. There are numerous inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds present involving both receptor mol-ecules and the tetra-n-butyl-ammonium cations, so forming a supra-molecular three-dimensional structure. One of the butyl groups and one of the nitro groups are disordered over two positions of equal occupancy.

Abstract
In recent decades, N-heterocyclic ligands have been extensively used in the separation of lanthanides/actinides, whereas the selective extraction of amercium or curium has been very challenging. Using density functional theory calculations, this study is devoted to the investigation of the binding affinity of a series of modelling pyridine ligands with AmIII and CmIII. The structure-property correlations between the amercium and curium systems and the binding affinity were obtained, and promising strategies for efficient separation of AmIII/CmIII were proposed.

Abstract
The title compounds, tetra-butyl-ammonium chloride-1,1'-(1,2-phenyl-ene)bis-(3-m-tolyl-urea) (1/1), C16H36N+·Cl-·C22H22N4O2 or [(n-Bu4N+·Cl-)(C22H22N4O2)] (I) and tetra-butyl-ammonium bromide-1,1'-(1,2-phenyl-ene)bis-(3-m-tolyl-urea) (1/1), C16H36N+·Br-·C22H22N4O2 or [(n-Bu4N+·Br-)(C22H22N4O2)] (II), both comprise a tetra-butyl-ammonium cation, a halide anion and an ortho-phenyl-ene bis-urea mol-ecule. Each halide ion shows four N-H⋯X (X = Cl or Br) inter-actions with two urea receptor sites of different bis-urea moieties. A crystallographic inversion centre leads to the formation of a 2:2 arrangement of two halide anions and two bis-urea mol-ecules. In the crystals, the dihedral angle between the two urea groups of the bis-urea mol-ecule in (I) [defined by the four N atoms, 165.4 (2)°] is slightly smaller than that in (II) [167.4 (2)°], which is probably due to the smaller ionic radius of chloride compared to bromide.

Abstract
While the titrimetric assay is one of the most precise analytical techniques available, only a limited list of complexometric chelators is available, as many otherwise promising reagents are not water-soluble. Recent work demonstrated successful titrimetry with ion-exchanging polymeric nanospheres containing hydrophobic complexing agents, so-called ionophores, opening an exciting avenue in this field. However, this method was limited to ionophores of very high affinity to the analyte and exhibited a relatively limited titration capacity. To overcome these two limitations, we report here on solvent based titration reagents. This heterogeneous titration principle is based on the dissolution of all hydrophobic recognition components in a solvent such as dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) where the ionophores are shown to maintain a high affinity to the target ions. HSV (hue, saturation, value) analysis of the images captured with a digital camera provides a convenient and inexpensive way to determine the end point. This approach is combined with an automated titration setup. The titrations of the alkali metals K+, Na+, and Li+ in aqueous solution are successfully demonstrated. The potassium concentration in human serum without pretreatment was precisely and accurately determined as 4.38 mM ± 0.10 mM (automated titration), which compares favorably with atomic emission spectroscopy (4.47 mM ± 0.20 mM).
