Mixed-Valent Neptunium(IV/V) Compound with Cation-Cation-Bound Six-Membered Neptunyl Rings
A new mixed-valent neptunium(IV/V) compound has been synthesized by evaporation of a neptunium(V) acidic solution. The structure of the compound features cation-cation-bound six-membered neptunyl(V) rings. These rings are further connected by Np-IV ions through cation-cation interactions (CCIs) into a three-dimensional neptunium cationic open framework. This example illustrates the possibility of isolating neptunyl(V) CCI oligomers in inorganic systems using other cations to compete with Np-V in bonding with the neptunyl oxygen.
