Chemistry of Radioactive Elements 1200-1CHJCHPPW4
The lecture covers issues related to the description of the physicochemical properties of radioactive elements (astatine, radium, technetium and actinium) in the context of their use in nuclear medicine. Methods of synthesis of selected radiopharmaceuticals will be discussed.
The second part of the lecture will be devoted to description of the properties of actinides ( especially thorium and uranium). The compounds formed by these elements with C, N, O and halogens will be discussed as well as their spectroscopic properties and methods of their separation.
The application of the radioactive elements will be discussed.
