Scandium nitrate-nitric acid-water-tributyl phosphate system. II. Interaction of Sc(NO{sub 3}){sub 3}{center_dot}3TBP with nitric acid in organic solvent
- Khlopin Radium Institute, St. Petersburg (Russian Federation)
Scandium nitrate solvates Sc(NO{sub 3}){sub 3}{center_dot}qTBP (TBP is tributyl phosphate, q = 3.15, 2.57, and 1.58) were synthesized, and their IR spectra were measured. Model solutions of Sc(NO{sub 3}){sub 3}{center_dot}3TBP in CCl{sub 4} containing nitric acid with Sc:HNO{sub 3} molar ratios 1:1 to 1:3 and 1:7 were prepared, and their IR spectra were also measured. The spectra indicate formation of complexes with formula Sc(NO{sub 3}){sub 3}{center_dot}mHNO{sub 3}{center_dot}3TBP (m = 1-7) through H-bonding of medium strength. In complexes with m = 1-2, nitric acid molecules are presumably bonded to oxygen atoms of nitrate groups coordinated to scandium. The R{sub O{hor_ellipsis}O} distance in these complexes was estimated for the H-bond as 2.68 {angstrom}.
