Context
? U in nuclear industry (mining, fuel, reprocessing, + wastes of all these processes)
-> control of the speciation and reactivity: the alkaline media
-> Molecular Dynamics
? Experimental data :
- 9 conformers and their energies (Schreckenbach 1998) (computational)
- *β3 et *β4 (no *β5 data) (Chemical Thermodynamic of Uranium 1992, 2003)
- Oax /O└q exchange ΔH?= 9,8\0,4 kcal/mol, kex
298K=45\15s-1 (Clark 1999)
- EXAFS ((TMA)OH 3,5 M media, r1 = 1,81 ?, CN = 2, r2 = 2, 21(1) ?, CN=5,3(5))
? Speciation
? A reaction
? H-bond
