Popis: © 2017, Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary. 137 Cs and 241 Am extraction with perchloroethylene solutions of O-substituted p-alkylcalix[8]arenes (alkyl: tert-butyl, iso-nonyl) from carbonate-alkaline media is studied. Dependence of distribution ratios on pH values of the aqueous phase in the range 11–13.9 and on the nature of functional groups in the calixarene platform is confirmed. Composition of cesium and americium solvates with calix[8] arenes is determined. Tert-butylcalix[8]arene with oxybis(ethane-1,2-diyl) bridging group possesses superior efficiency towards cesium in alkaline media. The most efficient extractants for americium are “mixed” iso-nonyl-tert-butylcalix[8] arenes with ethane-1,2-diyl and oxybis(ethane-1,2-diyl) bridging groups.
