Chelator‐Assisted Precipitation‐Based Separation of the Rare Earth Elements Neodymium and Dysprosium from Aqueous Solutions

The rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources for many clean energy technologies, but are difficult to obtain in their elementally pure forms because of their nearly identical chemical properties. Here, an analogue of macropa, G-macropa, was synthesized and employed for an aqueous precipitation-based separation of Nd 3+ and Dy 3+ . G-macropa maintains the same thermodynamic preference for the large REEs as macropa, but shows smaller thermodynamic stability constants. Molecular dynamics studies demonstrate that the binding affinity differences of these chelators for Nd 3+ and Dy 3+ is a consequence of the presence or absence of an inner-sphere water molecule, which alters the donor strength of the macrocyclic ethers. Leveraging the small REE affinity of G-macropa, we demonstrate that within aqueous solutions of Nd 3+ , Dy 3+ , and G-macropa, the addition of HCO 3 − selectively precipitates Dy 2 (CO 3 ) 3 , leaving the Nd 3+ −G-macropa complex in solution. With this method, remarkably high separation factors of 841 and 741 are achieved for 50 : 50 and 75 : 25 mixtures. Further studies involving Nd 3+ :Dy 3+ ratios of 95 : 5 in authentic magnet waste also afford an efficient separation as well. Finally, G-macropa is recovered via crystallization with HCl and used for subsequent extractions, demonstrating its good recyclability.

Measurement of the top quark pair production cross section in PbPb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}=5.36$ TeV

The inclusive cross section for top quark pair ($\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}$) production in lead-lead (PbPb) collisions is reported for the first time at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.36 TeV. The analysis uses data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.58 nb −1 collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2023. The $\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}$ production cross section, ${\sigma}_{\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}}={3.42}_{-0.51}^{+0.54}{\left(\mathrm{stat}\right)}_{-0.43}^{+0.50}\left(\mathrm{syst}\right)$ μb, is measured in dilepton final states using a fit to a multivariate discriminator that combines the decay electron and muon kinematic properties with the multiplicity of bottom quark jets. The result is consistent with perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) accuracy employing several nuclear parton distribution functions. In addition, the Drell–Yan production cross section (σ DY ) for dilepton masses above 10 GeV and the ratio of $\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}$ to DY cross sections $\left({R}_{\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}/\mathrm{DY}}\right)$ are found to be compatible with the NNLO predictions. The observables ${\sigma}_{\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}}$, σ DY , and ${R}_{\mathrm{t}\overline{\mathrm{t}}/\mathrm{DY}}$ are measured separately for central and semicentral PbPb collisions to investigate for the first time the dependence of top quark production on the collision impact parameter.

Substituent Effects on Exchange Coupling and Magnetic Relaxation in 2,2'-Bipyrimidine Radical-Bridged Dilanthanide Complexes

Systematic analysis of related compounds is crucial to the design of single-molecule magnets with improved properties, yet such studies on multinuclear lanthanide complexes with strong magnetic coupling remain rare. In this work, we present the synthesis and magnetic characterization of the series of radical-bridged dilanthanide complex salts [(Cp* 2 Ln) 2 (μ-5,5'-R 2 bpym)](BPh 4 ) (Ln = Gd, Dy; R = NMe 2 (1), OEt (2), Me (3), F (4); bpym = 2,2'-bipyrimidine). Modification of the substituent on the bridging 5,5'-R 2 bpym radical anion allows the magnetic exchange coupling constant, J Gd-rad , for the gadolinium compounds in this series to be tuned over a range from -2.7 cm -1 (1) to -11.1 cm -1 (4), with electron-withdrawing or -donating substituents increasing or decreasing the strength of exchange coupling, respectively. Modulation of the exchange coupling interaction has a significant impact on the magnetic relaxation dynamics of the single-molecule magnets 1-Dy through 4-Dy, where stronger J Gd-rad for the corresponding Gd 3+ compounds is associated with larger thermal barriers to magnetic relaxation ( U eff ), open magnetic hysteresis at higher temperatures, and slower magnetic relaxation rates for through-barrier processes. Further, we derive an empirical linear correlation between the experimental U eff values for 1-Dy through 4-Dy and the magnitude of J Gd-rad for the corresponding gadolinium derivatives that provides insight into the electronic structure of these complexes. This simple model applies to other organic radical-bridged dysprosium complexes in the literature, and it establishes clear design criteria for increasing magnetic operating temperatures in radical-bridged molecules.

Strong Ferromagnetic Exchange Coupling and Single-Molecule Magnetism in MoS 4 3– -Bridged Dilanthanide Complexes

We report the synthesis and characterization of the trinuclear 4d-4f compounds [Co(C 5 Me 5 ) 2 ][(C 5 Me 5 ) 2 Ln(μ-S) 2 Mo(μ-S) 2 Ln(C 5 Me 5 ) 2 ], 1-Ln (Ln = Y, Gd, Tb, Dy), containing the highly polarizable MoS 4 3 - bridging unit. UV-Vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectra and DFT calculations of 1-Ln reveal a low-energy metal-to-metal charge transfer transition assigned to charge transfer from the singly occupied 4d z 2 orbital of Mo V to the empty 5d orbitals of the lanthanides (4d in the case of 1-Y ), mediated by sulfur-based 3p orbitals. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra collected for 1-Y in a tetrahydrofuran solution show large 89 Y hyperfine coupling constants of A ⊥ = 23 MHz and A || = 26 MHz, indicating the presence of significant yttrium-localized unpaired electron density. Magnetic susceptibility data support similar electron delocalization and ferromagnetic Ln-Mo exchange for 1-Gd , 1-Tb , and 1-Dy . This ferromagnetic exchange gives rise to an S = 15/2 ground state for 1-Gd and one of the largest magnetic exchange constants involving Gd III observed to date, with J Gd-Mo = +16.1(2) cm -1 . Additional characterization of 1-Tb and 1-Dy by ac magnetic susceptibility measurements reveals that both compounds exhibit slow magnetic relaxation. Although a Raman magnetic relaxation process is dominant for both 1-Tb and 1-Dy , an extracted thermal relaxation barrier of U eff = 68 cm -1 for 1-Dy is the largest yet reported for a complex containing a paramagnetic 4d metal center. Furthermore, these results provide a potentially generalizable route to enhanced n d-4f magnetic exchange, revealing opportunities for the design of new n d-4f single-molecule magnets and bulk magnetic materials.

The effect of rare earth (RE 3+ ) ionic radii on transparent lanthanide-tellurite glass-ceramics: correlation between ‘hole-formalism’ and crystallization

Rare earth (RE) doped transparent tellurite glass-ceramics (GCs) are widely explored for their application as advanced photonic materials. Specifically, the growth of RE based “anti-glass” crystalline phases in transparent GCs enhances their effective functionality. Enormous studies on the properties of GCs revealed that optimization of glass composition and heat-treatment schedule are the foremost factors that affect the transparency of the GCs. Nevertheless, the direct effect of RE 3+ ions on the crystallization mechanism of glass has hardly been reported. Therefore, a base glass of the composition La 2 O 3 –Gd 2 O 3 –TiO 2 –TeO 2 (LGTT) is doped with RE 3+ ions (Ce 3+ , Pr 3+ , Nd 3+ , Sm 3+ , Eu 3+ , Tb 3+ , and Dy 3+ ) with varied ionic radii. Rietveld refinement from XRD of GCs confirms that (La/Gd) 2 Te 6 O 15 phases are precipitated, where dopants Ce, Pr and Nd occupy La sites, while Sm, Eu, Tb, and Dy occupy Gd sites. The configurational heat-capacity (ΔC p ) from DSC is found to be lower for larger ionic radii REs (Ce, Pr, Nd) than smaller ionic radii REs (Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy) thereby exhibiting higher chemical ordering followed by faster crystal growth rate in the former. However, the transparency retention profile of different RE-doped GCs follows the trend Eu:Tb > Sm:Dy > Nd > Pr > Ce, confirming the ionic radii effect. In addition to the ionic radii effect, in this work, we propose a ‘Hole-Formalism’ concept to explain the observed trend. It is further corroborated with an identical neutron diffraction pattern and ΔC p values for these ion pairs Sm 3+ : Dy 3+ (4f 5 : 4f 9 ) and Eu 3+ : Tb 3+ (4f 6 : 4f 8 ) results in a similar crystallization mechanism, transmission profile and fine-scale microstructures of these RE-based tellurite GCs.
