Abstract

A rare earth metal extractant in the form of a dialkyl diglycol amic acid is synthesized by reacting diglycolic anhydride with a dialkylamine in a synthesis medium. A molar ratio (B/A) of dialkylamine (B) to diglycolic anhydride (A) is at least 1.0. A non-polar or low-polar solvent in which the dialkyl diglycol amic acid is dissolvable is used as the synthesis medium.
