Popis: 19F and 21Sb NMR spectroscopy and chemical analysis were used to study the composition and structure of fluoride complexes of antimony(V) and tantalum(V) in organic and aqueous phases in extraction by tributyl phosphate (TBP) and n-octanol. It is found that extraction from solutions containing a single element or both elements occurs via the hydrate-solvate mechanism. The possibility of separating tantalum(V) and antimony(V) by extraction from fluoride solutions is shown. The efficiency of tantalum(V) and antimony(V) separation by extraction from fluoride solutions is enhanced at a transition from TBP to n-octanol.
