Species of Uranium(VI) with TTA in Benzene and Perchloric Acid, the Charge on Uranyl Ion

Abstract: Part I: A series of extraction experiments has been performed to determine the distribution coefficient of uranium(VI) between dilute perchloric acid and benzene solutions of TTA. The data are interpreted to show that the principal species in the acid phase is a doubly charged ion, UO2++. The discrepancies revealed in previous work(1) were not found. Part II: The spectrophotometric method of analysis developed for use in Part I has shown the existence of previously unreported species of uranium(VI) in the presence of TTA: UO2K2-HK in benzene, and UO2K+ in dilute acid. The absorption spectra of all the principal species are reported.
