New sequestering agents for the actinides
Description
This a cooperative research project of the Biology and Medicine and the Materials and Molecular Research Divisions, LBL, and the Department of Chemistry, UC Berkeley. Its purpose is to develop safe effective agents for decorporation of actinides and other toxic metal ions of small size and high charge. The similar coordination chemistries of Fe(III) and Pu(IV) suggested that ligands forming stable chelates with Fe(III) would also be effective for Pu(IV). Several ligands containing the catechoyl (2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid) functional groups have been prepared at LBL
