Liquid–liquid extraction is the major technique being applied for the partitioning of f-
elements from nuclear waste. In this review, the recent developments in ligand design …

Targeted alpha-particle therapy (TAT) aims to selectively deliver radionuclides emitting α-
particles (cytotoxic payload) to tumors by chelation to monoclonal antibodies, peptides or …

Pillararenes are macrocyclic oligomers of alkoxybenzene akin to calixarenes but tethered at
the 2, 5-positions via methylene bridges. Benefiting from their unique pillar-shaped …

ABSTRACT A follow up to an earlier review on the coordination and extraction of trivalent
actinide and lanthanide ions with triazinylpyridine N-donor ligands is presented. It reviews …

Interest in the isolation and recovery of lanthanide and actinide metals has gained recent
attention due to their increasing use in everyday materials (eg batteries, screens, sensors) …

Phenanthroline-diamide ligands have been reported in the selective separation of actinides
over Eu (III); on the contrary, relevant basic coordination chemistry studies are still limited …

Theoretical calculations (density functional theory with the scalar relativistic ZORA
Hamiltonian) have been performed to obtain the energy and Gibbs free energy of formation …

One of the major challenges in processing rare-earth element (REE) materials arises from
the large amounts of radioactive thorium (Th) that are often found within REE minerals …

Adding hydrophilic ligands into aqueous solutions for the selective binding of actinides (III) is
acknowledged as an advanced strategy in Ln (III)/An (III) separation. In view of the recycling …

Polyazines emerge as highly selective ligands toward actinide versus lanthanide
separation. Electronic structures of several mono-and polyazine f-complexes of general …
