Abstract: | Complexation of NpO2

0 (L
x-) heteropolyanion and disproportionation of Np(V) in the presence of L
x- were studied spectrophotometrically. The logarithms (logK) of the formation constants of NpO2
VL and NpO2
V
IL are 3 and 7, respectively. The K+ and Na+ cations bind the L
x- anions, thus decreasing the yield of the complexes. Neptunium(V) disproportionation in K10P2W17O61 solutions containing 1 M (HClO4 + NaClO4) (pH from 0 to 4) and free from NaClO4 (pH 2-6.5) was studied. The disproportionation rate is described by the equation -dNp(V)]/dt = kNp(V)]L
x-]. The pH dependence of the rate constant passes through a maximum at pH 1. The rate constant decreases with increasing Na+]. The reaction is inhibited by its product, Np(IV). The Np(V) complex is not involved in disproportionation; the reactive species is NpO2
+ aqua ion, which is probably converted into NpO3
+L
x-. Then NpO3
+L
x- rapidly reacts with NpO2
+, which occurs simultaneously with, or is preceded by release of the second oxygen atom. |
