Abstract:Periodically arranging coordination‐distinct actinides into one crystalline architecture is intriguing but of great synthetic challenge. We report a rare example of a heterobimetallic actinide metal–organic framework (An‐MOF) by a unique reaction‐induced preorganization strategy. A thorium MOF (SCU‐16) with the largest unit cell among all Th‐MOFs was prepared as the precursor, then the uranyl was precisely embedded into the MOF precursor under oxidation condition. Single crystal of the resulting thorium‐uraniu… Show more
