Chloride complexation studies of the actinide ions An3+, An4+, An02, and AnO + (An = U, Np, Pu) were reported in several comprehensive reviews [293-295], More recent investigations on aqua and chloro complexes of U02+, NpOz+, Np4+, Pu3+, etc., by x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS) were reported [296,297]. In particular, it was established for U(IV) and Th(IV) aqua ions and fluoride complexes that both M(IV) aqua ions are 10-coordinate with M — O bond distances for U(IV) and Th(IV) of 2.42 0.01 A and 2.45 0.01 A, respectively [297], Physical and chemical studies of uranium aqueous complexes are reported [298,299a], A series of articles is dedicated to specific sequestering agents for the actinides [299b-e],...

Recently considerable effort has been devoted to the synthesis of natural siderophores, enantiomeric siderophores, and completely synthetic siderophore analogs. These compounds have been prepared as potential drugs in the treatment of iron overload, as potential antibiotics, and as probes for the stereospecific recognition and uptake of siderophore complexes by microbes. In addition, octadentate analogs have been prepared as actinide-specific sequestering agents 24).

Two fundamental questions in the design of an actinide-specific sequestering agent are the coordination number and geometry actually preferred by the metal ion with a given ligand. The...
