英文摘要 | Separation of trivalent actinides (an(iii)) and lanthanides (ln(iii)) is one of the most important steps in spent nuclear fuel reprocessing. however, it is very difficult and challenging to separate them due to their similar chemical properties. recently the pyridylpyrazole ligand (pypzh) has been identified to show good separation ability toward am(iii) over eu(iii). in this work, to explore the am(iii)/eu(iii) separation mechanism of pypzh at the molecular level, the geometrical structures, bonding nature, and thermodynamic behaviors of the am(iii) and eu(iii) complexes with pypzh ligands modified by alkyl chains (cn-pypzh, n = 2, 4, 8) have been systematically investigated using scalar relativistic density functional theory (dft). according to the nbo (natural bonding orbital) and qtaim (quantum theory of atoms in molecules) analyses, the m-n bonds exhibit a certain degree of covalent character, and more covalency appears in am-n bonds compared to eu-n bonds. thermodynamic analyses suggest that the 1:1 extraction reaction, [m(no3)(h2o)(6)](2+) + pypzh + 2no(3)(-) -> m(pypzh)(no3)(3)(h2o) + 5h(2)o, is the most suitable for am(iii)/eu(iii) separation. furthermore, the extraction ability and the am(iii)/eu(iii) selectivity of the ligand pypzh is indeed enhanced by adding alkyl-substituted chains in agreement with experimental observations. besides this, the nitrogen atom of pyrazole ring plays a more significant role in the extraction reactions related to am(iii)/eu(iii) separation compared to that of pyridine ring. this work could identify the mechanism of the am(iii)/eu(iii) selectivity of the ligand pypzh and provide valuable theoretical information for achieving an efficient am(iii)/eu(iii) separation process for spent nuclear fuel reprocessing. |
