Abstract
This study highlights the importance of combining distribution ratio measurements with multiple spectroscopic techniques to provide a more comprehensive understanding of organic phase Ln coordination chemistry. Solvent extraction investigations with N,N,N',N'-tetraoctyldiglycolamide (TODGA) in n-heptane reveal the sensitivity of Ln complexation to the HNO3 concentration. Distribution ratio measurements in tandem with UV-Vis demonstrated that increasing the concentration of HNO3 above 0.5 M with a constant NO3- of 1 M increases the number of coordinating TODGA molecules, from a 1:2 to a 1:3 Ln:TODGA complex. At each concentration of HNO3 considered herein (from 0.01 to 1 M), Eu lifetime analysis demonstrated no evidence of H2O coordination. Results from Fourier transform infrared investigations suggest the presence of inner-sphere NO3- under low concentrations of HNO3 when the 1:2 Ln:TODGA complex is present. Increasing the HNO3 concentration above 0.5 M increases the propensity for outer-sphere interactions by removing the coordinated NO3- and saturating the Ln coordination sphere with three TODGA molecules, resulting in the well-established cationic, trischelate homoleptic [Ln(TODGA)3]3+ complex. This work demonstrates the importance in considering the NO3- source for solvent extraction systems. In particular, for systems with an affinity for outer-sphere interactions with molar concentrations of HNO3, changing the NO3- source can change the inner-sphere coordination of the Ln complex, which, in turn, affects the separation efficacy.

Abstract
The fundamental safety improvement of the nuclear industry depends on two important elements: Zr(IV) and Hf(IV). However, the elementary knowledge is that separation processes of the two are difficult, so there are few existing methods to meet the requirement. Furthermore, the process is highly contaminated. The development of green and efficient ligands for the separation of Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) is beneficial to the stable development of the nuclear industry. A bisamide ligand D001 was reported for the extraction and separation of Zr(IV) and Hf(IV). D001 utilizes an anionic association mechanism to extract Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) by coordinating amide groups with metals to form complexes H2ZrCl6·2 D001 and H2HfCl6·2 D001. Using quantum chemical calculations, we illuminate the extraction mechanism of bisamide ligands and the reasons for their better coordination ability than monoamide ligands and carboxylic acid ligands. A process of bisamide extraction and separation of Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) was established, and the thermodynamic parameters of the process were investigated.

Abstract
We have determined the identity of the complexes extracted into the ALSEP process solvent from solutions of nitric acid. The ALSEP process is a new solvent extraction separation designed to separate americium and curium from trivalent lanthanides in irradiated nuclear fuel. ALSEP employs a mixture of two extractants, 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester (HEH[EHP]) and N,N,N',N'-tetra(2-ethylhexyl)diglycolamide (TEHDGA) in n-dodecane, which makes it difficult to ascertain the nature of the extracted metal complexes. It is often asserted that the weak acid extractant HEH[EHP] does not participate in the extracted complex under ALSEP extraction conditions (2-4 M HNO3). However, the analysis of the Am extraction equilibria, Nd absorption spectra, and Eu fluorescence emission spectra of metal-loaded organic phases argues for the participation of HEH[EHP] in the extracted complex despite the high acidity of the aqueous phases. The extracted complex was determined to contain fully protonated molecules of HEH[EHP] with an overall stoichiometry of M(TEHDGA)2(HEH[EHP])2·3NO3. Computations also demonstrate that replacing one TEHDGA molecule with one (HEH[EHP])2 dimer is likely energetically favorable compared to Eu(TEHDGA)3·3NO3, whether the HEH[EHP] dimer is monodentate or bidentate.

Abstract
Abstract
The extraction behaviour of U(VI), Th(IV) and Nd(III) was investigated as a function of nitric acid concentration for diamide based extractants, namely, N,N,N′,N′-tetraoctyl-3-carbonylpentanediamide (TOCPDA) and 4-carbonyl-heptanedioic acid bis-dioctylamide (CHADA). In addition, the distribution ratio was also measured for Pu(IV) and Sr(II) with 1.1 M CHADA in n-dodecane. These extractants were synthesized by adopting simple acid, amine coupling reaction with DCC (dicyclohexylcarbodiimide) and DMAP (N,N′-dimethylaminopyridine) as the coupling agent. The newly synthesized extractants were characterized by FT-IR, NMR, Mass, CHNS and HPLC. The extraction results indicated that CHADA shown has better extraction behavior for U(VI) compared to TOCPDA. In addition, CHADA coated HPLC column was examined for the retention behaviour of U(VI), Th(IV), and Nd(III). Computation studies based on density functional theory (DFT) were carried out to understand the complexing behaviour of U(VI), Pu(IV) and Sr(II) with CHADMA and TMCPDA.

Abstract
To search for new ligands suitable for the separation of minor actinides (MA) from lanthanides (Ln) in nuclear waste reprocessing, theoretical (density functional theory) studies were carried out on the complexation (structures, bonding, and thermodynamics) of La3+, Sm3+, Eu3+, and Am3+ complexes with moderately soft donor ligands TPEN [N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine] and PPDEN [N,N,N',N″,N″-pentakis(2-pyridylmethyl) diethylenetriamine] in aqueous and nitrobenzene solutions. B3LYP level of theory was used in conjunction with the conductor-like screening model for real systems (COSMO-RS). The metal ions in [M(NO3)2(TPEN)]NO3 and [M(NO3)(PPDEN)](NO3)2 complexes were deca-coordinated with both TPEN and PPDEN. The enthalpy of the complexation with TPEN in an aqueous solution was found to be negative, indicating the exothermic nature of the reaction as observed in the experiments. The calculated values of free energy of complexation follow the experimental trend: Am3+ > Sm3+ > La3+. Furthermore, the calculated free energy with PPDEN is reduced compared to that with TPEN, which may be attributed to the ligand straining during complex formation, which is also reflected in greater residual charges on both the Eu3+ and Am3+ central ions in the complexes of octadentate PPDEN compared to hexadentate TPEN. The experimental complexation selectivity of Am3+ over Eu3+ with TPEN is established by employing COSMO-RS. Furthermore, TPEN is Am3+-selective, whereas PPDEN is Eu3+-selective, which could be exploited for the efficient separation of MA from Ln.

Abstract
The feed wastes and waste water treatment plants are the major sources for the entry of N-oxides into the soils then to aquatic life. The complexation of actinides with potentially stable anthropogenic ligands facilitate the transportation and migration of the actinides from the source confinement. The present study describes the determination of thermodynamic parameters for the complexation of Th(IV) with the three isomeric pyridine monocarboxylates (PCNO) namely picolinic acid-N-oxide (PANO), nicotinic acid-N-oxide (NANO) and isonicotinic acid-N-oxide (IANO). The potentiometric and isothermal calorimetric titrations were carried out to determine the stability and enthalpy of the formations for all the Th(IV)-PCNO complexes. Th-PANO complexes are more stable than Th-NANO and Th-IANO complexes which can be attributed to chelate formation in the former complexes. Formation of all the Th-PCNO complexes are endothermic and are entropy driven. The geometries for all the predicted complexes are optimized the energies, bond distances and charges on individual atoms are obtained using TURBOMOLE software. The theoretical calculation corroborated the experimental determinations.
