PUREX工艺后的乏燃料中微量锕系元素（Am/Cm）的分离有望在新的后处理方法中发挥关键作用。迄今为止，已经鉴定了来自BTPhen配体家族的许多选择性镅萃取剂。在这项调查中，我们合成了24个新的BTPhens与额外的功能，以确定对溶解度和镅提取能力的影响。所获得的数据将允许BTPhens的空间/电子性质的调整，以协助未来的萃取剂设计。
Separation of the minor actinides (Am/Cm) from spent nuclear fuel post-PUREX process is expected to play a key part in new reprocessing methodologies. To date, a number of selective americium extractants from the BTPhen ligand family have been identified. In this investigation, we synthesise 24 novel BTPhens with additional functionality to determine the effects on solubilities and americium extraction capabilities. The data obtained will allow for tuning of steric/electronic properties of BTPhens in order to assist future extractant design.
