Extraction of uranium with trifluoromethyl alkyl diketones differing in the length of the alkyl chain was studied. The size of the alkyl group only slightly affects the extraction. Extraction of complexes formed by uranyl nitrate with β-diketones in pentafluoroethane (Freon-125) was studied. The complexes are efficiently extracted with both super- and subcritical Freon-125. In contrast to extraction of these complexes in supercritical CO₂, in extraction with Freon-125 the complexes do not decompose.
