A study has been made of the solubility of uranyl nitrate hexahydrate and thorium nitrate tetrahydrate in various organic solvents at 20 °C. In all the solvents investigated no case was found where the thorium nitrate tetrahydrate was more soluble than the uranyl nitrate hexahydrate. Hydrocarbons do not dissolve either compound to an appreciable extent. Addition of a ketone, aldehyde, or alcohol group enhances the solubility considerably. The simpler the compound the greater the solubility of the nitrate in any given family.

The values reported by Yaffe for the solubilities of thorium nitrate tetrahydrate and uranyl nitrate hexahydrate in various organic solvents are compared with those previously reported by Templeton and Hall, the former being much lower than the latter. Some of the accessory experiments of Templeton and Hall are here presented in support of the position that their values more closely correspond to equilibrium than those of Yaffe.
