- Abstract
As a less explored avenue, actinide‐based metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) are worth studying for the particularity of actinide nodes in coordination behaviour and assembly modes. In this work, an azobenzenetetracarboxylate‐based anionic MOF supported by uranyl–carboxyl helical chain units was synthesized, incorporating linear uranyl as the metal centre. This kind of helical chain‐type building unit is reported for the first time in uranyl‐based MOFs. Structural analysis reveals that the formation of helical chain secondary units can be attributed to restricted equatorial coordination of rigid flat azobenzene ligand to uranyl centres. Meanwhile, this newly‐synthesized anionic material has been used to remove Eu3+ ions, as a non‐radioactive surrogate of Am3+ ion, through an ion‐exchange process with [(CH3)2NH2]+ ions in its open channels, as evidenced by a combination of 1H NMR spectroscopy, EDS and PXRD.
