Extractive Properties of Tri-n-octylphosphine Oxide Towards Thorium (IV) and Europium (III) Ions in Aqueous Nitrate Media

Phosphoryl containing ligand tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO) in dichloromethane has been used as an extracting agent for tetravalent thorium and trivalent europium ions from their 1 M sodium nitrates. The equilibrium data reveal that both ions are extracted as the complexes at 1:3 metal/ligand rat...
