Abstract

Physical properties of actinyl materials are influenced by the presence of oxo functional groups. Herein, we report large thermal expansion coefficients for a uranyl metal organic nanotube that switch from positive to negative upon dehydration. Different behaviour is observed in the neptunyl system due to variations in the oxo interactions.
