Abstract
Abstract A compound of the formula: <IMAGE> or <IMAGE> wherein X is hydrogen or a conventional electron-withdrawing group, particularly -SO3H or a salt thereof; n is 2, 3, or 4; m is 2, 3, or 4; and p is 2 or 3. The present compounds are useful as specific sequestering agents for actinide (IV) ions. Also described is a method for the 2,3-dihydroxybenzamidation of azaalkanes.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
57 words
A method for sequestering an actinide (IV) ion in vitro which comprises treating the actinide (IV) ion with a compound of the formula: ##STR5## wherein X is hydrogen, --SO 3 H or a salt thereof, or --NO 2 ; n is 2, 3, or 4; m is 2, 3, or 4; and p is 2 or 3.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
57 words
A method for sequestering an actinide (IV) ion in vitro which comprises treating the actinide (IV) ion with a compound of the formula: ##STR5## wherein X is hydrogen, --SO 3 H or a salt thereof, or --NO 2 ; n is 2, 3, or 4; m is 2, 3, or 4; and p is 2 or 3.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
A method for sequestering an actinide (IV) ion according to claim 1 wherein said process is carried out in vitro.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
A method of sequestering an actinide (IV) ion in vitro according to claim 2 wherein the formula is ##STR6## and n, m, and p are 2 or 3.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method of sequestering an actinide (IV) ion in vitro according to claim 2 wherein the formula is ##STR7##
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
48 words
A method according to claim 2, 3, or 4 wherein the actinide ion to be sequestered is Pu (IV), said ion being removed in vitro from a radioactive waste by treating said waste with a compound of the formula described where X is H or --SO 3 H.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
46 words
A method according to claim 2, 3, or 4 wherein the actinide ion to be sequestered is Pu (IV), said ion being removed in vitro from a radioactive waste by treating said waste with a compound of the formula described where X is --SO 3 H.
