Abstract
Epimers of the (1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diyl)bis(ethyl(phenyl)phosphine oxide) (Et-Ph-BPPhen) ligand with two chiral centers (R,R/S,S and R,S) were synthesized. The configurational effects on the coordination ability and mechanism between these epimeric ligands and uranyl ions were thoroughly investigated. This work is helpful to reveal the effects of different conformations of epimeric ligands on their coordination properties.

Abstract
The speciation of technetium in the nitric acid/dibutylphosphoric acid (HDBP)-n-dodecane system was studied by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy and theoretical methods. Tetravalent technetium, produced by the hydrazine reduction of TcO4- in 3 M HNO3, was extracted by HDBP in n-dodecane (30% by volume). During extraction, the splitting of the organic phase into a heavy phase and a light phase was observed. EXAFS analysis is consistent with the presence of Tc(NO3)3(DBP)(HDBP)2 in the light phase and Tc(NO3)2(DBP)2(HDBP)2 in the heavy phase. Density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G* level confirm the stability of the proposed species and indicate that stereoisomers -mer- and fac-Tc(NO3)3(DBP)(HDBP)2 for the light phase and cis- and trans-Tc(NO3)2(DBP)2(HDBP)2 for the heavy phase] could coexist in the system (in the n-dodecane solution). Mechanisms of formation of Tc(NO3)3(DBP)(HDBP)2 and Tc(NO3)2(DBP)2(HDBP)2 are proposed.

Abstract
A convenient protocol for the synthesis of 25,26,27-tribenzoyl-28-[((S)-1-diphenylphos- phanyl-propan-2-yl)oxy]-calix[4]arene via stereospecific methylation on Evans' oxazolidinone moiety was reported. According to the 13C NMR analysis of this phosphine, the calix[4]arene skeleton adopted a 1,3-alternate conformation. The latter conformation of the macrocycle and the (S)-chirality of the carbon atom bearing the methyl substituent were confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. After coordination of the phosphinated ligand to the dimeric [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 organometallic precursor, the resulting arene-ruthenium complex was tested in the asymmetric reduction of acetophenone and alcohol was obtained with modest enantiomeric excess.

Abstract
Phenanthroline diamide ligands have been widely used in the separation of trivalent actinides and lanthanides, but little research has focused on extractants with asymmetrical substitutes. Two novel asymmetrical phenanthroline-based ligands N2,N2,N9-triethyl-N9-tolyl-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxamide (DE-ET-DAPhen) and N2-ethyl-N9,N9-dioctyl-N2-tolyl-1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxamide (DO-ET-DAPhen) were first synthesized in this work, whose extraction ability and complexation mechanism to trivalent actinides [An(III)] and lanthanides [Ln(III)] were systematically investigated. The ligands dissolved in n-octanol exhibit good extraction ability and high selectivity toward Am(III) in acidic solutions. The complexation mechanism of the ligands with Ln(III) in solution and solid state was analyzed using slope analysis, 1H NMR spectrometric titration, ESI-MS, and calorimetric titration. It is revealed that the ligands complex with Am(III)/Eu(III) with 1:1 stoichiometry. The stability constant (log β) of the complexation reaction of Eu(III) with DE-ET-DAPhen determined by UV-vis spectrophotometric and calorimetric titration is higher than that of DO-ET-DAPhen, indicating the stronger complexation ability of DE-ET-DAPhen. Meanwhile, the calorimetric titration results show that the complexation process is exothermic with a decreased entropy. The structures of 1:1 complexes of Eu(III) and Nd(III) with DE-ET-DAPhen were analyzed through single-crystal X-ray diffraction. This work proves that ligands containing asymmetrical functional groups are promising for An(III)/Ln(III) separation, which shows great significance in efficient extractants designed for the spent nuclear fuel reprocessing process.

Abstract
Adding hydrophilic ligands into aqueous solutions for the selective binding of actinides(III) is acknowledged as an advanced strategy in Ln(III)/An(III) separation. In view of the recycling and radioactive waste disposal of the minor actinide, there remains an urgent need to design and develop the appropriate ligand for selective separation of An(III) from Ln(III). Herein, four novel hydrophilic ligands with hard-soft hybrid donors, derived from the pyridine and phenanthroline skeletons, were designed and synthesized as masking agents for selective complexation of An(III) in the aqueous phase. The known N,N,N',N'-tetraoctyl diglycolamide (TODGA) was used as lipophilic extractant in the organic phase for extraction of Ln(III), and a new strategy for the competitive extraction of An(III) and Ln(III) was developed based on TODGA and the above hydrophilic ligands. The optimal hydrophilic ligand of N,N'-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-2,9-dicarboxamide-1,10-phenanthroline (2OH-DAPhen) displayed exceptional selectivity toward Am(III) over Ln(III), with the concentrations of HNO3 ranging from 0.05 to 3.0 M. The maximum separation factors were up to 1365 for Eu/Am, 417.66 for Eu/Cm, and 42.38 for La/Am. The coordination mode and bonding property of 2OH-DAPhen with Ln(III) were investigated by 1H NMR titration, UV-vis spectrophotometric titration, luminescence titration, FT-IR, ESI-HRMS analysis, and DFT calculations. The results revealed that the predominant species formed in the aqueous phase was a 1:1 ligand/metal complex. DFT calculations also confirmed that the affinity of 2OH-DAPhen for Am(III) was better than that for Eu(III). The present work using a competitive extraction strategy developed a feasible alternative method for the selective separation of trivalent actinides from lanthanides.

Abstract
To tune the complexation and solvent extraction performance of the ligands with a 1,10-phenanthroline core for trivalent actinides (An3+) and lanthanides (Ln3+), we synthesized two new asymmetric tetradentate ligands with pyrazole and amide groups, i.e., L1 (N,N-diethyl-9-(5-ethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline-2-carboxamide) and its analogue L2 with longer alkyl chains (N,N-dihexyl). The complexation of the ligands with Ln3+ was confirmed by 1H NMR titration and X-ray crystallography, and stability constants were measured in methanol by spectrophotometric titration. The asymmetric ligands exhibited an improved performance in terms of selective solvent extraction of Am3+ over Eu3+ in strongly acidic solutions compared to their symmetric analogues. The improved selectivity of the asymmetric ligands was interpreted theoretically by density functional theory simulations. This study implies that combining different functional groups to construct asymmetric ligands may be an efficient way to tune ligand performance with regard to An3+ separation from Ln3+.

Abstract
The complexation of trivalent lanthanides and minor actinides (Am3+, Cm3+, and Cf3+) by the acyclic aminopolycarboxylate chelators 6,6'-((ethane-1,2-diylbis-((carboxymethyl)azanediyl))bis-(methylene))dipicolinic acid (H4octapa) and 6,6'-((((4-(1-(2-(2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethoxy)ethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis-(methylene))bis-((carboxymethyl)azanediyl))bis-(methylene)) dipicolinic acid (H4pypa-peg) were studied using potentiometry, spectroscopy, competitive complexation liquid-liquid extraction, and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. Two studied reagents are strong multidentate chelators, well-suited for applications seeking radiometal coordination for in-vivo delivery and f-element isolation. The previously reported H4octapa forms a compact coordination packet, while H4pypa-peg is less sterically constrained due to the presence of central pyridine ring. The solubility of H4octapa is limited in a non-complexing high ionic strength perchlorate media. However, the introduction of a polyethylene glycol group in H4pypa-peg increased the solubility without influencing its ability to complex the lanthanides and minor actinides in solution.

Abstract
In this study, pyridine and phenanthroline diphosphonate ligands were investigated for the first time from the context of solvent extraction and potentiometric sensing of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), and Pb(II) cations. The extraction efficiency under the same conditions for phenanthroline-diphosphonates is considerably higher than that for pyridine ligands. At the same time, the pyridine-diphosphonates show pronounced selectivity towards lead in this metal series. The extraction systems with phenanthroline diphosphonates provided the most efficient extraction of Cd(II) and Pb(II) cations (D > 90). The newly developed pyridine and phenanthroline diphosphonate ligands have proven to be highly effective components in plasticized polymeric membranes. These ligands can be utilized to construct potentiometric ion sensors that exhibit a notable response specifically towards Pb(II) cations. Among the previously reported tetradentate ligands, the phenanthroline diphosphonate ligand, when incorporated into plasticized polymeric membranes, demonstrated the highest sensitivity towards d-metals and Pb(II). The structure of the single crystal complex of Pb(II) and Cd(II) with pyridine-diphosphonates was studied by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The geometry of Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) complexes and the energy effect of the complex formation, including pseudo-oligomerization reactions, were determined by DFT calculations. The high sensing and extraction efficiency of diphosphonates with respect to Pb(II) is consistent with the minimum values of complex formation energies. The variation in sensory and extraction properties observed among the studied diphosphonate ligands is influenced by the ability to form polynuclear complexes with Pb(II) cations, whereas such properties are absent in the case of Cd(II) cations.

Abstract
We report the synthesis and characterization of a series of new, tunable 1,2-bis(diarylphosphine oxide)-ortho-carboranes, derivatives of our previously reported uranyl (UO22+) capture agent 1,2-(Ph2PO)2-1,2-C2B10H10 (POCb). The series features new cage-substituted variants of POCb, namely, 9-I-POCb (POCbI), 9,12-I2-POCb (POCbI2), 9,12-Me2-POCb (POCbMe2), 9,12-Et2-POCb (POCbEt2), and 4,5,7,8,9,10,11,12-Me8-POCb (POCbMe8). Aryl-substituted variants include 1,2-((4-MeO-Ph)2PO)2-Cb ((OMe)POCb) and 1,2-((4-F-Ph)2PO)2-Cb ((F)POCb). The effects of electron-withdrawing (EWG) and electron-donating (EDG) groups on resulting carborane redox potentials were assessed using electrochemical means, and the resulting Lewis basicities were quantified using empirical and competition-based NMR experiments. In organic solution, carboranes substituted with EWGs exhibited weaker coordination to UO22+, whereas those with EDGs exhibited stronger coordination. Similar to the previously reported unsubstituted POCb, the tunable new series of carboranes were electrochemically reduced and used for the biphasic capture of UO22+ from an aqueous to an organic phase and back again (release) through electrochemical oxidation. Extraction and back-extraction efficiencies were determined by analyses of the aqueous phases by ICP-OES. While all reduced nido-carboranes efficiently extracted UO22+ in high yields (78-88%)─with seemingly no correlation to the aforementioned measured Lewis basicities─we found the back-extraction of UO22+ to be significantly improved from POCb and, surprisingly, more closely related to their hydrophobic rather than their Lewis basic properties.

Abstract
A reaction of acyl chlorides derived from 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-dicarboxylic acids with piperazine allows the preparation of the corresponding 24-membered macrocycles in good yield. The structural and spectral properties of these new macrocyclic ligands were thoroughly investigated, revealing promising coordination properties towards f-elements (Am, Eu). It was shown that the prepared ligands can be used for selective extraction of Am(III) from alkaline-carbonate media in presence of Eu(III) with an SFAm/Eu up to 40. Their extraction efficiency is higher than calixarene-type extraction of the Am(III) and Eu(III) pair. Composition of macrocycle-metal complex with Eu(III) was investigated by luminescence and UV-vis spectroscopy. The possibility of such ligands to form complexes of L:Eu = 1:2 stoichiometry is revealed.
