Concentration effects

⇒ we need 3 Fe(III) for maximum dissolution⇒ Influence of NaOH….

UV-visible spectroscopy

⇒ In solution no Fe(III) remains in solution⇒ Am cannot be determined in solution⇒ Dissolution of solid shows AmO2

+

Electrochemistry

⇒ Fe(III) can oxidize Am(III) to Am(V) but not to Am(VI)⇒ Equilibrium potential do not agree with the expected Fe(II) AmO2

⇒ Voltametry shows the couples FeIII(CN)63-/FeII(CN)6

-Oxo pi donor effect on binding energy for Am(V)- Ferricyanide is an overall electron density donor ligand (potentially stabilizing AmO 2

2+ in basic media)- AmF3 is probably strongly ionic, electron density for Am (III) is very weak.- Need to be confirmed by Au deposition on samples f or a more precise charge effect measurement- Am(IV) and molecular Am(VI) measurements need to b e done (unstable compounds)- What's going on with Am(VII) and Am(II) ?

- XPS and Mössbauer spectroscopy can be used for elect ronic investigations on molecular species

- Extend to other techniques- XPS/UPS 4F and 5F, ligand XPS (1sO)…- XAS Low Energy levels (L and M levels)- Magnetic measurements (SQUID)- EPR ?

- Extend the measurements to other actinides elements

- Strong collaboration needed with the theoretical ap proach

- perspectives- Experimental structural (spatial and electronic) st udies on Actinyl (5f 0, 5f1, 5f2) on U and Np compounds, clearing the 5f contributio n on high oxidation state stabilisation- Theoretical qualitative valence shell description in the studied series

Conclusion

[UO2(OPPh3)4][OTf]2 : stabilisation U(VI) by axial system

Uranium (VI) :

Axial and equatorial effects can be unsettled Equatorial ππππ effects can be observedF effects modulated Am(III)/Np(V)

UO2(CF3SO3)2 : Important equatorial interaction

Neptunium (V, VI) :

F and OH compounds stabilised by π equatorial donation (6d behaviour)

Carbonate : Bonding system is different, « more » ionic (5f)

Oxalate : cation-cation system

Am (III)

Am-F is rather Ionic

Synthesis 242Pu that had been treated with various alkali dyroxides and hydrogen peroxide was acidified with concentrated nitric acid and loaded onto an anion-exchange resin. During loading and the initial wash of the column with 7.5m HNO3, a large fraction of the plutonium broke through the column, thus indicating the presence of colloidal plutonium. This colloidal fraction was heated several times to near dryness and reconstituted in HCl. Aqueous 2m LiCl was added to an aliquot ofthis solution; upon evaporation of the solution at room temperature, red crystals of the reported compound formed afterapproximately one month.
