Dioxouranium(VI)--carboxylate complexes. Interaction with dicarboxylic acids in aqueous solution: speciation and structure.

In this paper we report the results of an investigation performed by potentiometric (H+-glass electrode) and visible spectrophotometric measurements on the interaction of UO2(2+) ion towards some carboxylic ligands (acetate, malonate, succinate, azelate). The measurements were carried out at T= 25 degrees C in different ionic media (KNO3 and NaCl) at different ionic strengths (0.1 < or = I/mol L(-1) < or = 1.0, NaCl; I/mol L(-1) = 0.1, KNO3). The dependence on ionic strength of formation constants was taken into account by using both a simple Debye-Hückel type equation and the SIT (Specific ion Interaction Theory) approach. Different speciation models (depending on concentration of reagents, ionic strength, pH-range) both for different carboxylates and different ionic media have been obtained. Linear combinations between formation constants, stoichiometric coefficients and length of alkyl chain of dicarboxylates have been observed and predicted formation constants at I= 0 mol L(-1) are reported for the interaction of UO2(2+) with HOOC-(CH2)n-COOH with 1 < or = n < or = 7. Finally, a visible absorption spectrum for each complex reaching a significant percentage of formation in solution (KNO3 medium) has been calculated to characterise the compounds found by pH-metric refinement.
