Abstract
Abstract
Radiolytic stability of pillar[5]arene-based diglycolamides (P5DGAs) against gamma irradiation up to 1000 kGy adsorbed dose was studied. The results reveal the increase of radiation damage degree on P5DGAs with dose. The radiolysis products of P5DGAs including the gaseous and solid products were fully characterized by 1H NMR, HR-ESI-MS, GC, and HPLC techniques. It was found that the main radiolytic gas products of P5DGAs under argon are H2, N2, CO and gaseous hydrocarbons. The solid degradation products contain phenolic hydroxyl groups and secondary amine groups. In addition, solvent extraction toward Eu(III) was performed with P5DGAs, in which about 50% decrease on extraction efficiency was observed for irradiated P5DGAs with dose of 1000 kGy in comparison with the non-irradiated one. A radiolytic degradation pathway was also proposed based on the above results. This is the first time to investigate the radiolytic stability of neat P5DGAs and P5DGAs in molecular diluent in detail and provides useful information for further application of P5DGAs in practical applications for spent fuel reprocessing.

Abstract
Abstract
The radiation stability of three phosphine oxide functionalized pillar[5]arenes (POP5A) was studied by an electron accelerator with dose up to 5 MGy in air at room temperature. The structures of both irradiated and unirradiated pillar[5]arenes samples were comparatively characterized by Micro-FTIR, NMR, UV-vis, ESI-HRMS and HPLC techniques. The results revealed different degrees of radiation damage at different doses for POP5A, and the degradation products are mainly composed of organic species containing hydroxyl groups and carbonyl groups. The possible radiolytic degradation pathway was proposed. In addition, extraction of uranyl ion with irradiated POP5A samples was examined. The distribution ratio of uranyl ion was found to increase at low radiation dose and decrease until 3000 kGy. This is the first time that the irradiation stability of pillar[5]arenes derivative extractants has been studied in detail and it provides reliable data support for further application of pillar[5]arenes extractants in practical applications.
