The extraction of uranium (VI) from 5.3 mol.L−1 phosphoric acid with a series of phosphoric, phosphinic, dithiophosphoric, or dithiophosphinic acid derivatives (0.5 mol.L−1) in mixture with 0.125 mol.L−1 TOPO in Isane IP 185 has been investigated. In the frame of the present work, eight acidic phosphorus and thiophosphorus compounds have been synthesized: bis(1,3-diisobutoxypropan-2-yl) phosphoric acid, bis(1,3-bis-(butylthio)propan-2-yl) phosphoric acid, bis(5,8,12,15-tetraoxanonadecan-10-yl) phosphoric acid, bis(1-butoxyheptan-2-yl) phosphoric acid, bis(undecan-6-yl) phosphoric acid, bis(2-(1,3-dibutoxypropan-2-yloxy)ethyl) phosphoric acid, bis(3-butoxy-2-(butoxymethyl)-2-methylpropyl) phosphinic acid, bis(1,3-dibutoxypropan-2-yl) dithiophosphoric acid. The properties of these molecules in mixtures with TOPO have been compared with those of other extractants such as bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid, bis(2-ethylhexyl) dithiophosphoric acid, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphinic acid, Cyanex® 272, and Cyanex® 301...
