abstract = {Different types of water-soluble ligands were synthesized
and their capability was evaluated by solvent extraction
studies to complex trivalent actinides and suppress their
extraction by a strong lipophilic ligand, such as TODGA. The
back extraction efficiency of hydrophilic diglycolamide
(DGA) derivatives with a varying number of ethylene glycol
groups, or containing sodium acetate moieties on the amidic
nitrogen shows a decrease in back-extraction efficiency with
increasing number of ethylene glycol units on the amidic
nitrogen at various pH values of the aqueous phase. Among
the P-S donating ligands only the ligand with a malonamide
backbone exhibits a high reverse extraction efficiency,
although, with no selectivity for americium. Within the
water-soluble tripodal ligands, i.e. the amide derivatives
of nitrilotriacid with N,N-dimethyl and N,
N-bis(hydroxyethyl) moieties, the first one shows a
pronounced selectivity for Am(III) over Eu(III), with a
maximum separation factor of 11.1, while the latter one more
efficiently complexes the radionuclides in the aqueous phase
with a maximum separation factor of 5. Isothermal
microcalorimetry experiments of the complexation of Eu(III)
by a selected series of ligands confirm the observed trend
in the back extraction properties.},
