The complexation of Cm(III) and Eu(III) with n-C3H7-BTP in non-aqueous organic solution was studied with extended X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Bond lengths are the same in both complexes. Quantum chemical calculations performed at different levels support this finding. On the other hand, the Cm(n-C3H7-BTP)3 complex is formed at much lower metal-to-ligand concentration ratio than the Eu(n-C3H7-BTP)3 complex, as shown by time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy. This is in good agreement with n-C3H7-BTPs high selectivity for trivalent actinides over lanthanides in liquid-liquid extraction.
