Separation of trivalent actinide (An) and lanthanide (Ln) elements is one of the burning
topics in the back end of the nuclear fuel cycle due to the similarity in their chemical …

1, 10-Phenanthroline (phen) is one of the most popular ligands ever used in coordination
chemistry due to its strong affinity for a wide range of metals with various oxidation states. Its …

Two members of the tetradentate N-donor ligand families 6, 6′-bis (1, 2, 4-triazin-3-yl)-2,
2′-bipyridine (BTBP) and 2, 9-bis (1, 2, 4-triazin-3-yl)-1, 10-phenanthroline (BTPhen) …

A new class of pillar [5] arene-based phosphine oxides tethered with ten chelating groups
on both rims of the pillar were synthesized via two steps from macrocyclization of 1, 4-bis …

A novel tetradentate ligand combining hard O-donor and soft N-donors in the same
molecule, N, N′-diethyl-N, N′-ditolyl-2, 9-diamide-1, 10-phenanthroline (Et-Tol-DAPhen) …

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 …

Unsymmetric N-heterocyclic extractants have been proven to have good application
prospects in the separation of trivalent actinides over lanthanides from highly active liquid …

Herein, we describe a metal‐free methodology using Selectfluor with disulfane, for the
deoxygenation of N‐heterocyclic N‐oxides (33 examples). This effective, robust, and simple …
