The new method is based on Th(IV) chelation with 3,6-dichloro-2,5-dihydroxy-l,4-benzoquinone(DDBQ). The reagent reacts with Th(IV) in 0.1 M HCl to form an orange 1:2 complex. The stability constant value is 6.62×10~4 for the Th(IV)complex. The Th(IV)-DDBQ obtained shows one peak with a maximum at about 346 nm. The chelate forms immediately and the absorbance remains stable for over24 h. Beer's law was obeyed in the concentration range0–10 μg mL^(-1). The molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity were 4.4×10~4 L mol^(-1)cm^(-1) and 0.0053 μg cm^(-2), respectively. Different analytical parameters were tested in detail. Interfering ion(cations and anions) effects were tested. Methods for Th(IV) determination by second and third-derivative spectrophotometry were also introduced at about 344 and 341 nm, respectively. These two derivative orders offer the feature of sensitivity without the necessity for solvent extraction,heating, or pre-concentration steps. Finally, the methods were successfully utilized for Th(IV) determination in monazite, environmental water, and wastewater samples.展开更多

Its m.p. is 106-108℃. The results of the element analysis are as follows: C, 68.51%, H, 4.51%, N, 9.26%, S, 11.47%, which are in conformity with the theoretical value (C, 69.15%, H, 4.76%, N, 9.52%, S, 10.90%). The solvent extraction of Th4+ from nitric acid solution by BMPPT in benzene was studied. The extraction ability of BMPPT is not so high as that of its parent (BMPP). The Th4+ distribution ratio (DTh) increases with the increasing pH of the aqueous phase, and pH1/2 for Th4+ was 3.2 ([BMPPT]=0.10 mol/L). When the pH increases, the distribution ratio of Th4+ increases linearly with the slope of 1 .59. When the concentration of BMPPT increases, the distribution ratio of Th4+ increases rapidly. The lgDTh-lg[BMPPT] is linear with the slope of 1.42 and the extraction mechanism is the cation ion-exchange.展开更多
