Uranium-enrichment in soils and plants in the vicinity of a pitchblende vein at La Creusaz-Les Marecottes (W of Martigny, Valais, Switzerland)

In the NE part of the Aiguilles Rouges Massif near Martigny, at the eastern contact of the Variscan Vallorcine granite to adjacent gneisses, a series of pitchblende (UO2)-veins occur. This paper determines the level of enrichment and mobility of uranium in soils situated in the vicinity of such a UO2-vein 7 km west of Martigny. Within an area of 50 x 100 m, situated on a relatively steep slope and characterized by a strong gramma-ray anomaly, six soil profiles including their plant cover and a reference soil profile outside the influence of the UO2-vein have been examined. The soil shows pH-values between 4 and 5 and is colluvial. The applied analytical methods for the metal contents include extraction methods, common for soil studies, and bulk analysis performed with X-ray fluorescence and ICP-MS. Uranium contents found in the uppermost 20 cm of the soil profiles vary from 2,500 ppm close to the vein to 15 ppm at the lowermost point of the study area. The reference soil has around 3 ppm uranium. At greater depth (20 to 40 cm) the U-content decreases to about half of the surface values, indicating a vertical transport of uranium within the soil profile. No systematic dependance of uranium-contents to grain size (amount of clay) nor to the amount of organic matter has been found. However, the good correlation between uranium and free iron oxide concentration suggests adsorption of uranium on iron oxy-hydroxides. The ashes of grass and mosses contain up to 90 ppm U, the blueberry and redwood only up to 3 ppm. Our observations suggest that at the surface the uranium is transported by downhill creep (solifluxion) of uranium-rich rock fragments. Liberated by oxidation of the uppermost fragments in a given soil column, the uranium migrates vertically until the conditions are favourable to adsorption onto Fe-oxy-hydroxides. However, as high U-contents of local surface water show, this adsorption does not lead to a significant retention of the uranium.

Síntesi i optimització de la DPTMephos. Complexos de Mo i W

La ruta sintètica del bis(2-((difenilfosfino)metil)fenil)sulfà, Ph2PCH2-(C6H4)S(C6H4)-CH2PPh2 , DPTMephos, involucra 5 reaccions en 4 etapes ben diferenciades. Es per aquest motiu que es fa necessària una optimització de la ruta sintètica per assolir rendiments més elevats. La primera reacció parteix del sulfur de difenil i involucra la formació d’un complex litiat per acabar realitzant una carbonilació amb N,N-DMF per obtindre un dialdehid. El següent pas de la ruta passa per la reducció del producte al diol corresponent. Tot seguit ja es por preparar el substrat mitjanjant una bromació per a que en l’última etapa, s’acobli a l’estructura el grup difenilfosfino. Tant mateix s’han sintetitzat els isòmers de la DPTMephos amb [W(CO)6] i [Mo(CO)6], observant-se la formació tant dels complexos meridionals com facials i la seva interconversió. Tot seguit s’ha desenvolupat la sulfuració de la DPTMephos per obtindre els lligands tant mono com di sulfurats. També s’ha realitzat un estudi de l’espectre de RMN 31P{1H} del complex fac-[Mo(CO)3(DPTMephos)] a temperatura variable per determinar el senyal de cada fòsfor no equivalent a 200K. S’ha realitzat un estudi de forma qualitativa de les conformacions que adopta l’anell quelat de 6 baules en les conformacions tant meridional com facial d’un complex.
