Title: An Americium-Containing Metal-Organic Framework: A Platform for Studying Transplutonium Elements

Journal Article · · Angewandte Chemie International Edition

The synthesis, structural and spectroscopic characterization of the first transplutonium metal-organic framework (MOF) is described. The preparation and structure of Am GWMOF-6, [Am2(C6H8O4)3(H2O)2][(C10H8N2)], is analogous to that of the isostructural trivalent lanthanide-only containing material GWMOF-6. The presented MOF architecture is used as a plat-form to probe Am3+ coordination chemistry and guest-enhanced luminescent emission, whereas the framework itself provided a means to monitor the effects of self-irradiation upon crystallinity over time. Presented here is a discussion of these properties and the opportunities that metal-organic frameworks provide in the structural and spectroscopic study of actinides.
