Three methods for the analysis of dibutyI hydrogen phosphate (DBP) and monobutyl dihydrogen phosphate (MBP) in irradiated systems of tributyl phosphate (TBP), Amsco, uranyl nitrate, nitric acid, and water were investigated. An extraction method based on the greater acidity of DBP and MBP as compared to other acid radiolytic products seemed promising at first. However, it was shown that recoverv of the two esters was not quantitative. Considerable effort was devoted to an attempt to analyze for DBP and MBP by means of gas-liquid partition chromatography. The parameters, which were varied, include column material and length, temperature, solvent, and gas flow rate. No reproducible positive results were obtained. Separation of TBP, DBP, and MBP by paper chromatography was achieved with good results and the foundation laid for the use of TBP labeled with phosphorus (P/sup 32/) in a new series of irradiations.
