Abstract

Abstract : Isostructural, homoleptic twelve-coordinate nitrato complexes of the 5f-ions Am and Cm are reported that occur as hybrid double perovskites. Abstract : The synthesis and structures of the homoleptic hexanitrato complexes of Am(iii ) and Cm(iii ), [(CH3 )4 N]2 KAn(NO3 )6 are reported. These compounds form a double perovskite structure type, A2 B′BX6, crystallizing in the cubic space group Fm 3̄ m . Their electronic properties, as calculated using the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules, are reported and compared to their lanthanide homologues Eu(iii ) and Gd(iii ).
