Dr Juliane Mรคrz (Helmhotz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf)16/05/2022, 13:30Chemistry of Actinide and Trans-actinide ElementsInvited
In contrast to the strongly shielded 4 f electrons of the lanthanides, 5 f electrons of particularly the early actinides are found to participate in bonding, e.g. to organic ligands. Reactivity and complexation strength of such bonds are the most influenced by donor properties of the ligand and the electronic situation of the actinide metal center. Furthermore, coinciding properties of...

N-donor and O-donor ligands form strong, ninefold coordinated complexes with trivalent actinide and lanthanide ions. These excellent coordination properties make them suitable for the application as extractants and are interesting systems to study from a fundamental scientific perspective. Extraction studies have shown that N-donor ligands (e.g. nPr-BTP) are suitable for the selective...

Trivalent actinides generally exhibit ninefold coordination in solution. nPr-BTP, a tridentate nitrogen donor ligand, is known to form ninefold coordinated 1:3 complexes, [An(nPr-BTP)$_3$]$^{3+}$ (An = U, Pu, Am, Cm) in solution.

We report the first Cm(III) complex with tenfold coordination in solution [Cm(nPr-BTP)$_3$(NO$_3$)]$^{2+}$. This species was identified using time-resolved laser... -

All isotopes of the elements with atomic numbers 114 and above as well as many of the longer-lived isotopes of lighter superheavy elements are only accessible in fusion reactions with actinide targets. Accordingly, the production of actinide targets is an important topic in the field of SHE research, especially with new accelerator facilities coming online that deliver ever more intense...

Overall goal of this project is to contribute to the knowledge of the heaviest actinoids. The research was carried out in two main directions: development of a method for radiochemical separation of actinoid series by liquid chromatography, including a model for determining separation parameters in non-equilibrium processes at one-atom-at-a time level (JINR Dubna), and novel methods for An(II)...

The Superheavy Element Factory in Dubna offers unique prospects regarding future chemistry experiments with superheavy elements. The very first chemistry experiment at the Superheavy Element Factory will focus on the chemical characterization of elements copernicium (Z=112) and flerovium (Z=114) in their respective elemental state, employing online gas adsorption thermochromatography. Further...

The knowledge of complexation reactions of early actinides with nitrogen donor ligands serves not only as fundamental research in this underrepresented field of chemistry but also contributes to a deeper understanding of their reactivity and coordination chemistry. In contrast to the lanthanides, with the dominating oxidation state of + III, actinides, especially the early actinides up to...

To adequatly chemically characterize superheavy elements, such as nihonium (Nh, Z=113) which has a production rate on the order of atoms per day, thorough prestudies must be completed. Gas adsorption chromatography of cyclotron-produced $^{184}$Tl were conducted as preptory experiments for future Nh chemistry studies. $^{184}$Tl (5 neutron evaporation channel) was produced at the U-400...

Phosphate species from natural (e.g. phosphate mineral like apatite) as well anthropogenic (e.g. fertilizers) sources are ubiquitous in the environment [1]. Phosphoric acid is also present in the PUREX process as ultimate degradation product of tributylphosphate [2]. Phosphate species are expected to strongly interact with plutonium ions, plutonium being one of the main environmental...

The americium isotope Am-241 is formed during the storage of plutonium via beta-decay of Pu-241 with a half-life of 14.33 years. Due to its accumulation in existing stocks of civil separated plutonium in Europe, and its relatively high specific power of 0.114 W/g, Am-241 has been proposed for use in radioisotope power systems (RPS) and is under consideration by the European Space Agency (ESA)...

Amidinate ligands have attracted considerable attention in the field of coordination chemistry over the last decades as versatile soft N-donor ligands to stabilize the transition metal complexes in various oxidation states. The additional advantages of employing amidinates over other ligand systems are their high modularity and easy access to a variety of analogs by... -

In preparation of gas phase chemical experiments with element 115, we studied the chemical behavior of single short-lived bismuth atoms in rare gases (helium and argon) and in oxygen atmosphere. For that purpose, we performed off-line isothermal gas chromatography experiments at room temperature. The short-lived volatile Rn-219 precursor, provided from an Ac-227-source, was transported into...

Understanding of fundamental aspects of metal behavior is a key component of controlling the separation and purification process. This knowledge is based on speciation and oxidation state information leading to numerical thermodynamic parameters [1-3]. Surprisingly, there are still chemical systems with unknown stability constants of metals in the generic mineral acids. However, this situation...

The determination of the enthalpy of adsorption of an analyte on a defined stationary surface is one of the most important methods for the determination of chemical properties of superheavy elements (SHEs). Isothermal gas-adsorption chromatography setups have been used in various experiments to chemically study compounds of rutherfordium (Rf, Z=104), dubnium (Db, Z=105), seaborgium (Sg,...
