Epimerization effects on coordination behaviours of phenanthroline-based phosphine-oxide ligands with uranyl ions

Chem Commun (Camb). 2024 Apr 18. doi: 10.1039/d4cc00258j. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEpimers of the (1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diyl)bis(ethyl(phenyl)phosphine oxide) (Et-Ph-BPPhen) ligand with two chiral centers (R,R/S,S and R,S) were synthesized. The configurational effects on the coordination ability and mechanism between these epimeric ligands and uranyl ions were thoroughly investigated. This work is helpful to reveal the effects of different conformations of epimeric ligands on their coordination properties.PMID:38634237 | DOI:10.1039/d4cc00258j
