N-donor ligands such as n-Pr-BTP [2,6-bis(5,6-dipropyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)pyridine] preferentially bind trivalent actinides (An<sup>3+</sup>) over trivalent lanthanides (Ln<sup>3+</sup>) in liquid-liquid separation. However, the chemical and physical processes responsible for this selectivity are not yet well understood. Here, an explorative comparative X-ray spectroscopy and computational (L<sub>3</sub>-edge) study for the An/Ln L<sub>3</sub>-edge and the N K-edge of [An/Ln(n-Pr-BTP)<sub>3</sub ...[more]
