With the growing awareness of protecting urban environment and increasing demand for strategic materials, recycling SmCo magnets has become imperative. This paper provides a series methods regarding available hydrometallurgical technologies scrap magnets. study aimed to recover samarium (Sm), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), iron (Fe) from acid leachate by using precipitation ion exchange. IRC748 show...

the mass transfer performance of a pulsed disc and doughnut column for extraction of samarium and gadolinium from aqueous nitrate solution with d2ehpa was investigated. the effects of operating parameters such as pulsation intensity, continuous and dispersed phase velocities on column performance were investigated. the axial dispersion model was used to obtain the overall mass transfer coeffici...

A general study is undertaken to examine the scope of the reductive ring opening of aziridine-2-carboxylates with samarium diiodide. The competition between C-C and C-N bond cleavage is examined as a function of the nature of the N-substituent of the aziridine, the nature of the substituent in the 3-position of the aziridine, and whether the substituent in the 3-position is in a cis or trans re...

Photochromism has been reported for several rare-earth (RE) metal oxyhydride thin films and is characterized by a reversible darkening of the sample when exposed to light with energy greater than its optical bandgap. Here, we extend range known photochromic RE-oxyhydrides include samarium oxyhydrides. These SmH3?2xOx are made reactive magnetron sputtering as-deposited SmH1.9+? post-oxidation in...

As a potent neurotrophic agent, the sesquiterpenoid jiadifenolide represents a valuable small-molecule lead for the potential therapeutic treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. A stereocontrolled total synthesis of this densely functionalized natural product is reported, central to which is an adventurous samarium-mediated cyclization reaction to establish the tricyclic core and the adjacent ...

The spectra of plasmas produced by focusing the output of a Q-switched ruby laser (output I J) on the rare-earth metals have been studied. From samarium (Z = 62) to ytterbium (Z = 70), strong quasi-uniform continua are emitted in the wavelength range 40-2000 A. Line emission from the target elements is absent over most of this wavelength region, particularly below about 600 A. The use of these ...

The lanthanide(III) complexes [Ln(LH2)(NO3)3] 1-11(La-Er), 15(Y) and [Ln(LH2)(NO3)2(H2O)](NO3) 12-14 (Tm-Lu) of the tetraiminodiphenolate macrocycle L2- have been prepared by the transmetallation reaction between [Pb(LH2)(NO3)2] and Ln(NO3)3.nH2O. In these compounds, the uncoordinated imino nitrogens are protonated and are hydrogen bonded to the phenolate oxygens. The X-ray crystal structures o...

The samarium (III)/(II) and europium (III)/(II) redox potentials in molten lithium chloride were measured using the direct potentiometric method in the temperature range from 923 to 1094 K. Glassy carbon was used as the indifferent working electrode, and the standard chlorine electrode as a reference. The total concentration of rare-earth chlorides dissolved in molten lithium chloride did not e...
